New York City is not getting much of a break this winter.  The Big Apple and the rest of the eastern seaboard keep getting hit with snow, time and time again.  As of this morning, Central Park was under 15 inches of snow, and more is on the way in a full-fledged snow emergency.  If you thought the Christmas blizzard was bad for New York, I can’t wait to see how bad this blizzard might be.  This is the fourth storm of 4 inches of snow or more, and this makes 37 inches of snow on NYC since the Christmas Blizzard.

Not only is New York buried with snow, New Yorkers are basically stuck where they are.  The transit authority is paralyzed.  The three major airports are closed.  Schools are closed for only the ninth time since 1878.  Bus service in New York and northern New Jersey is suspended.

“It’s annoying, it’s inconvenient,” said New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg, echoing the frustration of his citizens.  “I didn’t get up this morning, make a few snowballs and throw them at anybody – but the thought occurred to me.”

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
