Yeah, I've got a snowblower bitches

Is it bad that I totally enjoy watching my neighbors break their backs shoveling plow slop while I cut through the heavy white stuff with my snowblower like a hot samurai sword through a melting stick of butter? No way dude. Here's my logic: Why do you have a snowblower? To get the job done faster, right? So, if I can whack through my entire driveway in 40 minutes, why the hell would I stay out in the cold like the freakin snowblowing Salvation Army instead of getting back inside where it's warm? Hey, if you want to borrow it, fine, but you're doing it yourself. This is how it goes down in "the town of friendly people."

Fairfield Hoops: Red Sea all dried up

So excited. Wait for 7:30 to watch my beloved Fairfield Stags face Marist on MSG. Haven't been to a game this year because of the new baby. Game time hits and the Arena at Harbor Yard is completely empty. I looks like a private game. How embarrassing! Here are the Stags on a 4 game winning streak, having just knocked off #1 Rider on Friday night and it's President's Day (no work for most) and the school STILL can't fill the gym...for a TV game no less. What is going on up there? Does no one care? The team is 9-6 so it's not like some years when they plays like the Fairfield School for the Blind. The Domesticated Man never regrets his college choice. He bleeds FU Red. BUT, he does resent the half-assed effort behind the athletic program. He sees so many 1AA programs enjoying success each year and drawing crowds at the same time. Gotta ask...is it Connecticut? Is it the talent? Is it the school? Is it the fact that the arena is off campus? In Bridgeport? I do know this. Sometimes the team is good, more times they stink to high heaven BUT they always play hard and the competition is usually solid (MAAC is good ball). People should go. People should care. What other good hoops do they have South of Storrs in CT to cheer for?

Long Time, No Blog

I'm back. The Domesticated Man took a pregnancy hiatus and watched some good material pass by but with a 7 week old, I can't resist it anymore.
