Week 6 Newsletter: The Points Don’t Matter

Something happened a week ago that was utterly amazing, but not in time for me to squeeze into the last newsletter. On a rare day where I was in the control room for our 7 a.m. show, we happened to have a couple guests promoting their comedy show. One was Asad Mecci, a quite funny…

Week 5 Newsletter: Cold and Spicy

We’re in October now. Crazy, right? We’re a quarter of the way through the NFL regular season, Halloween candy is lining store shelves, and people are already talking about Thanksgiving. Where the hell did summer go? It was just 100 degrees like a week or two ago! Now I actually have to put on a…

Week 4 Newsletter: Everybody Trade Everybody

So Ewing, Jimmy, Chriss, and I went to Sin City over the weekend for Emilio’s bachelor party. It’s cliche for a reason, but yeah… what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas. I think at least two of us are still hung over. (cue theme music) RECAP OF LAST WEEK ORCHIDS OF ASIA (2-1) DEF. DARTH RAIDER (2-1) 131.54 – 84.26 I thought I…

Week 3 Newsletter: Vegas, baby — Vegas!

Good morning, everyone! You might be wondering why the hell I sent this out so early. Well, the answer is simple, and it’s the same as the reason why this might be my last correspondence.I — along with Jimmy, Ewing, and Chriss — are going to Las Vegas for an extended weekend. For those of…

Week 2 Newsletter: Getting Jiggy With It

On June 9, something I’d wanted for most of my life finally happened: I saw a game at Fenway Park. I’ll spare you yet another retread and instead say something about what happened before Dad and I got to the ball park. I, being the one driving from our AirBNB in Brewster to Boston, happened…

Week 1 Newsletter: Go F@#K yourself, Epic League

Okay, now we’ve made it! Welcome back to football, boys! Week 1 of the NFL season and of this year’s Epic League of Epic Epicness kicks off tonight with Bears-Packers, which I will probably be forced to sleep through because Satan made my schedule. Whenever I want to do normal things like watch sports or…

Week -1 Newsletter: The Legend of Preseason

Welcome back to football! Well… almost. Obviously, the season hasn’t started yet any won’t for a couple more weeks. However, because we had our draft a little bit earlier than normal, saving the draft recap for another three weeks wouldn’t be too timely. Plus, that would make the newsletter incredibly massive and I don’t want…

Week 17 Newsletter: In the end…

Yeah, yeah… we’ll get to the Epic Bowl in a little bit. But for now, it’s time to be a millennial and make sure everyone, even those who didn’t finish on the podium this season, gets a trophy. (cue theme music 1) Starting from top to bottom (regular season standings): 2018 EPIC LEAGUE AWARDS (1)…

Week 16 Newsletter: Just Wonderful

Y’all know how much I love holiday-themed newsletters. With Christmas right around the corner, seems like the perfect excuse to queue one up! Today marks 72 years since the premiere of not only one of the greatest holiday movies ever, but one of the greatest films of all time: It’s a Wonderful Life. George and Clarence…

Week 15 Newsletter: Miracles do Happen

There’s this comedian/YouTube personality I follow named Vic Dibitetto. He’s got a classic New York accent and an East Coast style about his work, often hilariously ranting on a number of topics. He’s also a huge sports fan, particularly the Giants and yankees, and has an ongoing series where he pretends to be the teams’ coach…
