I am not known generally as a “morning person,” unless, of course, being a morning person means being irritable, slow, and angry at said morning. That’s why when I was invited to a bootcamp this morning at 8 AM, sponsored by ZICO chilled juices, I was like hellllll no. Why on Earth would I voluntarily …

Writer Jessica Ogilvie (Playboy) returns to the Banter Blender podcast to discuss the latest events in a summer of craziness. We start with Ray Rice and the larger question of can bad behavior ever be forgiven?

JUST when you thought this blog was dead, here I come blazing back with a new, important post. Truthfully, this is more than a post.

After a hard fought battle culminating in Kentucky winning the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship, the Tournament of Cham finally has a winner too. Results after the jump!
This has been quite the year for March Madness, and after a crazy weekend, we have our Final Four: Kentucky, Louisville, Ohio State, and Kansas. Only one member of the Tournament of Cham accurately predicted this foursome, and that clairvoyant participant is none other than SpecialK, whose bracket (“SpecialK”) has stormed to the top of …
It was a wild and wacky weekend in the men’s NCAA basketball tournament. Several big seeds were eliminated, leaving many people’s brackets a hot mess. In the wake of the destruction, we have some interesting results in the Tournament of Cham. In first place is a two-way tie with Fried Cheese and, surprisingly, ME. I …
March Madness is upon us, and that can only mean one thing: the return of The Tournament of Cham! Longtime readers of this blog will remember that when I first started this NCAA Tourney brackets group a few years ago, “B-Side Blog Tournament of Champions” was simply too long for Yahoo to process, and so …
