Cheek's Blog: December 2009

Tuesday, December 1, 2009. A Couple Quick Thoughts. So, as I sit her thinking about how many Thanksgiving calories I can burn by simply. About burning Thanksgiving calories my mind finds itself deviating to a couple other things. The Super Bowl of Shopping Day's for women. I swear I heard my cousin Ellen and Lady Cheek harkening back to the glory days of Black Fridays of the past. Oh, that will never top the great sale of '94! You girls don't know the half of it! Those were the good ol' days.". Athletes ...

Cheek's Blog: July 2008

Tuesday, July 22, 2008. Should your team (or my team for that matter) even consider bringing Barry Bonds in before the deadline? The short answer is…yes. You might be saying to yourself, “Self, why should my team subject itself and its good reputation to the acquisition of a steroid freak who has an ego bigger than Kirstie Allie after an all-nighter at the Ryan’s mega bar? From a purely offensive standpoint, I think that he adds almost a run per game to your scoreboard. As for his play in left field&...

Cheek's Blog: June 2009
http://ericcheek.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. So, I was stuck somewhere in between a Braves rain delay and the NBA Finals. While I do enjoy the occasional hoops matchup, I just didn't find Magic-Lakers to be all that intriguing. Despite all the talk about how this was a huge series for Phil and Kobe, I just couldn't get into it. I just couldn't get excited. That all being said, because it was basketball's world championship.I'll took the Lakers in five.they ended up nailling things down in six. 30 Rock = Manny Ramirez. They mi...

Cheek's Blog: A Maddening March
http://ericcheek.blogspot.com/2010/03/so-it-was-perfect-storm.html
Tuesday, March 23, 2010. So, it was the perfect storm. St Patrick's Day followed by the craziest four days in all of sports (the first and second rounds of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament). Well, in order to cheer me up and further my celebration of the patron saint of Ireland, I offer you a little music from a band that I have been listening to quite a bit lately. They're from, as David Letterman, my boy, puts it, "From Ireland, ladies and gentleman. From Ireland! Blue Lights On the Runway.

Cheek's Blog: Quick Thoughts: What I Learned On Break
http://ericcheek.blogspot.com/2010/01/what-i-learned-on-break.html
Friday, January 15, 2010. Quick Thoughts: What I Learned On Break. So, while I recovered from work and school during late December and the first half of January, I learned three important things. 1) College football’s bowl system is completely out of whack. 2) Tyler Hansbrough is a jerk. 3) Tennessee’s football program is in trouble. It’s what took place before the BCS, and frankly – before January 1st, that bothered me. 8211; bowl games BEFORE New Years Day. That is absolutely ridiculous! No, Cheek....

http://ericcheek.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. So, as we come off the Golden Globes and inch ever closer to Oscar-Time, I find myself thinking of, not sports movies, but, sports. Movies…which brings me to my thoughts on the top five fictional sporting events that I wish I could have attended. Note: It was tough putting these in any kind of order and I’m not 100% sure that I am settling on this as my final answer. But it’s a good place to start.* *. Starting with the guys that didn’t make it. Just missing the cut: The game.

Cheek's Blog: New Look
http://ericcheek.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-look.html
Thursday, November 5, 2009. So, in an effort to jazz this place up. I've come up with a little graphic for the top of the blog. It was fun to make and I think it turned out well. I'm continually trying to make this blog look a little sharper and thus enhance, frankly, my entertainment in using it. It's not as dramatic a change as the first time that we saw Andre Agassi show up without those gorgeous locks of his but it's still a change. One of the nice things about this picture is that I can constantly c...
