First of all, I have to apologize. To a company. To a company i was critical of a few weeks ago. The name is Seat Geek. I said that they weren’t doing a good enough job with my ticket refund from cancelled games. They weren’t as bad as Ticketmaster, but I wanted a quicker response.…… Continue Reading »
Back in the day, I remember watching University of Hawaii basketball games on K5. This was a very long time ago, before I started going to every game in person. And I remember Artie Wilson telling Jim Leahey, “It’s crunch time, Jim,” usually at the end of a close game. And that’s where we are…… Continue Reading »
“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” If you think those words make no sense, I will admit I didn’t come up with them first. Some famous writer named Charles wrote them a very long time ago. But that’s kind of how my week went. I used to eat out…… Continue Reading »

By Mathias Berbel After a star studded lineup at UFC 249 this past Saturday night, we now get UFC Fight Night Jacksonville night 1 on Wednesday. Many new fans will not know a lot of names but that does not mean we don’t have an action packed card on the way. We will get to…… Continue Reading »
