    Tom Brady makes it official. The guy had talent, drive and determination to be the best QB the league has ever seen. But he didn't do it without some cheating here and there. Which should at least put an * by hit title of GOAT.

  15. Super Bore

    Well that was a dud of a Superbowl.  Brady wins, again.... Biggest surprise to me was the Tampa defense keeping the Mahommes and the Chiefs out of the endzone. But overall the game was a bit of a snoozer. And so was the halftime show (I only recognized the last song - I guess I'm old).  The...

    The giant Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico came crashing down a few days ago.  One of the cables holding it up snapped during a recent Hurricane, and it was deemed unsafe to operate several weeks ago. Most folks probably remember it from the  Goldeneye James Bond movie.
