http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2011/08/bronx-slap-shot.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Thursday, August 4, 2011. A Bronx Slap Shot. Fter a recent lacrosse game, I was chided by teammates Ben McCarthy and Andy Liptak when I admitted that I had never seen the movie Slap Shot. At least not from start to finish, and only in a version edited for television. The reaction from my two friends ranged from disbelief to palpable indignation. Are you kidding me? What's wrong with You? The best sports movie ever m...

http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2014/08/e-street-lacrosse.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Monday, August 4, 2014. After 28 seasons of playing summer lax with the Westfield Cranx team, the need for a change in venue and the chance to play with a new group of players became unavoidable. As great as the Cranx franchise was, and as much as I loved playing with truly awesome guys and many lifelong friends over the years, looking for a new playing experience was something that simply became inevitable. Conor's...

Coach Fun's Blog: James Maddock vs. Bruce Springsteen
http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2012/10/james-maddock-vs-bruce-springsteen.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Sunday, October 14, 2012. James Maddock vs. Bruce Springsteen. In the world of Bruce Springsteen fandom, of which I am an exclusive member, I'm about to speak blasphemy. Here goes: I recently had a concert experience that I enjoyed as much as, if not more than, a Springsteen show. There it is, I said it. And I'm sticking to it. Now maybe my claims of sacrilege have something to do with seeing Maddock amongst only 70...

Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Friday, June 17, 2011. There's No "I" In Nowitzki. A funny thing happened on the way to the NBA championship title. The less athletic and less talented team walked away with the Larry O'Brien Trophy. Dallas Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki and a supporting cast of past-their-prime. Players outplayed, outcompeted, and outclassed the overhyped and overconfident Lebron James and the Miami Heat. There's no 'I' in team" may ...

Coach Fun's Blog: Father's Day (June 16)
http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2013/06/fathers-day-june-16.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Sunday, June 16, 2013. Father's Day (June 16). John S. Funaro (1923 - June 16, 1999). Bruce's videos usually involve him singing with his guitar, and simply a myriad of atmospheric backgrounds. Instead of visuals he lets his lyrics take care of the cinematography. When I made my own video to the song "When I'm Gone". To name just a few, "When I'm Gone". Became not just the artist's thoughts, but mine as well. Album,...

Coach Fun's Blog: The Price of Expression
http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-price-of-expression.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Sunday, January 20, 2013. The Price of Expression. My less than favorable opinion of Tebow stems from his religious beliefs. Not for what they are but for how he chooses to express them. I don't think anybody questions the sincerity and conviction of Tim's christian beliefs. From what we've learned about Tebow, he's devout in his faith and his charitable and missionary work is quite commendable. There's an old sayin...

http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2012/05/mothers-day-wish.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Saturday, May 12, 2012. A Mother's Day Wish. Ever since I first saw Bruce Springsteen's video, "Brilliant Disguise", and later confiscated my sister Linda's Springsteen Live '75-'85. Several years back, Bruce wrote his first and only song about his mother. "Probably the most autobiographical song I've ever written" he would say. The Wish. In my analytical opinion) Bruce uses the star. Underneath his Christmas tree&#...

http://coachfun.blogspot.com/2013/03/go-badgers-maybe.html
Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Tuesday, March 19, 2013. S far as moral dilemmas go, I could probably come up with a few hundred others I've encountered in my lifetime that carried a weight a hundred times heavier than this one. So, at least my preface is on the record. That said, here's the inner turmoil festering inside of me: I don't know who I should root for in this year's NCAA basketball tournament. Knight (1987) Alford (2013). Championship ...

Thoughts on sports, Springsteen, and life.and a combination thereof. (What else is there? Tuesday, November 15, 2011. A Lesson From Coach K. As Mike Krzyzewski looks to surpass Bob Knight in becoming the all-time winningest coach in NCAA history, I'll be watching along with most every other college basketball fan in the country. When Coach K got up to speak, as more of an impromptu moment, he walked over to a high school coach sitting in the front row of the gym and introduced himself. When Coach K first...
