Saturday Spitballin’ with Andy: Upset City

Today has been one of the most insane days of college basketball that I can remember. Nine out of the Top 10 teams in the nation played today, and 6 of them lost.

Super Bowl Superstitions

Players, coaches and fans have superstitions that they swear by – crazy, silly and sometimes weird routines that must be completed or the team will surely lose.  

Betting on the Super Bowl

The New England Patriots are 3-point favorites in the Super Bowl.  Until a few years ago, I thought that if a person bet on the Super Bowl, they were betting on which team was going to win.  Who knew there are hundreds of ways to bet on this game and associated events.

Super Bowl LI Week

After a short, mid-winter hiatus we are back!  Don spent the last week and a half researching for the blog- coming up with new, fun and exciting ideas to write about, and I took a long weekend with my oldest daughter to visit our Arkansas family.  Super Bowl Week is a perfect time to start …

The Jersey Dilemma

One of the fun things about being a sports fan is the endless amount of cool things a person can buy at the Team Shop.  Team hats and t-shirts are an easy and safe purchase – not too pricey and fairly long lasting. Player shirts are not very expensive and offer the fan a chance …

Drafting for the Postseason

Don’s Trophy League draft party was tonight for this round of the postseason playoffs.  It was held at one of our favorite pizza joints, Wedgewood Pizza, so my prize was getting a fresh, hot sausage pizza delivered to me after the draft.  I couldn’t wait to hear who he drafted, so I have been waiting …

Grilling Perfection – Traeger

Our favorite meals are grilled – burgers, shish-ka-bobs, chicken, hotdogs, and veggies, just to name a few.  We enjoy cooking for friends and family, and like nothing better than serving up fresh-off-the-grill deliciousness.  Our grilled meals are about to get a whole lot better!  We have been introduced to Traeger, and have never been so …

Saturday Spitballin’ with Andy: Holiday Shenanigans

It’s been a while since I’ve been spitballin’, mostly because of the title. My girlfriend, Marissa, recently embraced the Christmas spirit and guided me through a ridiculously extensive Christmas Countdown Present Extravaganza. Why yes of course I’ll explain, I’m glad you asked. Every day, beginning December 1, Marissa gave me a gift specifically designed for …
