Let’s dance, put on your red shoes and dance the blues.  Let’s dance, to the song they’re playin’ on the radio.  Let’s sway, while colour lights up your face.  Let’s sway, sway through the crowd to an empty space.  -David Bowie

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  When John Wall was taken with the first overall pick in this year’s draft by the Washington Wizrads, there was dancing in the streets.  Like the Good Book says, “Let them praise His name with dancing.  Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.”  Last night, Wall himself joined in the festivities.  Last night, John Wall himself made like Ren McCormack and said, “Hey, hey!  What’s this I see?  I thought this was a party.  Let’s Dance!”  And I’m not just talking about the pregame ceremonies as ssen above.            Read More »

Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you.  I’m crazy for trying and crazy for crying and I’m crazy for loving you.  -Patsy Cline

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  There was a time when OJ Simpson was the best running back football had ever seen.  A time when his power, speed and moves led him to 2,003 yards in 14 games.  A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away….  Those time are not these times.  In these times, the Nevada Supreme Court refused to overturn his armed-robbery and kidnapping convictions and grant him a new trial.  In these times he’s saying stuff like, “I’ve got nothing left to live for now…I’m going to kill myself!”  In these times, the two sports memorabilia collectors he robbed are concerned that O.J might use his $20,000-per-month pension to pay for a hit.  Like my men the Kinks always say, “Baby, where have all the good times gone?”

Peace out homies.  Six two and Even!

Gonna smile.   I’m gonna laugh.  You’re gonna get a blood bath.  You gotta go go go go, goodbye!  Glad to see you go go go go, goodbye!  -Ramones

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  The Cowboys entered this season as playoff favorites.  Word on the street was that they were going to be the first team to host and play in a Super Bowl this February.  Take a look at them now.   Well,  there’s just an empty space and there’s nothing left here to remind me.  To remind me what was supposed to have been.  I can’t say I’m bothered.  I can’t say I’m upset. I can’t say I’m losing any distaught over the fact that because of the Cowboys’ disappointing start, pressure is building on Jerry Jones to jettison his coach.  I can’t say anything like that.         Read More »

I don’t shine shoes. I don’t tape ankles. I don’t cut checks…Straight cash Homie!

Peace out Randy! Six two and even!

A curve ball’s what my pitch is.  So here we here we come like dum ditty dum, I keep all five boroughs in stitches.  -Beastie Boys

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  The Giants win the World Series!  The Giants win the World Series!  Casey Stengel said, “Good pitching will always stop good hitting.”  Warren Spahn said, “Hitting is timing. Pitching is upsetting timing.”  Satchel Paige said, “My pitching philosophy is simple – keep the ball way from the bat.”  In this here World Series, the San Francisco Giants’ good pitching stopped the Rangers’ good hitting.  In this here World Series, the San Francisco Giants upset the Rangers’ timing.  In this here World Series, the San Francisco Giants kept the ball way from the Rangers’ bats.          Read More »

It looks like football. It sounds like football. But then…

Peace out homies. Six two and even!

Cannot kill the family.  Battery is found in me.  Battery!  Battery!  -Metallica

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  The use of the word ‘battery’ in baseball was first coined by Henry Chadwick in the 1860s in reference to the firepower of a team’s pitching staff and inspired by the artillery batteries then in use in the American Civil War.   Later, the term evolved to indicate the combined effectiveness of pitcher and catcher.  Last night, Chadwick’s term never rang so true.           Read More »

What you waiting on?  I present to you a perfect situation.  Ain’t no need anticipating, no.  Take that!  Take that!  Take that!  Take that!  -Usher

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  Just a little quickie.  No time to speak softly and carry a big stickie.  Gotta yell loudly and throw a cement bricky.   Yesterday, as  Green Bay became the first visiting team to post a shutout against a host with at least five wins and no more than one loss since December 5, 1965, the New England Patriots did what they do best.  The New England Patriots won a footaball game.  Won a football game and put themselves atop the Adams Division.  Won a football game and gave themselves the best record in the NFL.  And know this sports fans:  Of the Patriots six wins thus far, four of them – including each of the last three – are against teams that were in the playoffs last year.  Ha ha ha!  Take that Rex Ryan!  Take that Jets!  Roll Pats, Roll!

Peace out homies.  Six two and Even!

The MVP of the game, intensity still the same.  I’m shootin out from my reign, with Peyton Manning type aim.  It’s the heart of a champion.  -Nelly

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  It is no secret that over here at JQP Productions we are New England Patriots fans.  Being Patriots fans inherently means hating the Indianapolis Colts.  Ipso facto, we also hate Peyton Manning.  Don’t believe me?  Just ask Dollar Bill Simmons.  In Patriot Nation, we all believe Tom Brady is the best quarterback that has ever been borned.  When there is trouble, I’m there on the double.  From Atlantic to Pacific, they know Tom Terrific!  But, like my main man Screamin’ Steven A. Smith always says, “Howeva!”  However, it’s high time I gave Peyton Manning his due.            Read More »
