The Olympics are soon over. Update commencing…
USA and China are finally separating in the medal count. Although China has an overwhelming edge over the Americans in Gold medals, the US has the overall total in their favor. China has improved so much from the Olympics prior. It’s obvious that their strategy was to concentrate on […]

US gymnast and beloved cutie pie Alicia Sacramone punches some guy. We all know this girl is a fighter, seeing her battle back from a disappointing experience in Athens. (I’m not exactly sure what I’m talking about, because I didn’t know who Alicia Sacramone was until a few days ago…but I hear she has battled […]
China is doing a fantastic job putting on these games. I don’t care if they are Communist. I don’t care if they won’t free Tibet. And I don’t care if they don’t like Joey Cheek, although I never met the guy, Prez G-dub says he’s a good man. Kudos to China for putting on a great spectacle.
Also, […]

Knowing that people out there still love and appreciate “Teen Wolf” brings great joy to my heart, similar to the way Boof made me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. And so we have the story of the former Greg White - now Stylez G. White.
Mr. White is a defensive end for the NFL’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers who decided to honor “Wolf Fever” by officially changing his name to Stylez G. White. So it’s not EXACTLY the same way that “Stiles” spelled it in the movie, but close enough. After all, the original Stiles was the inspiration behind the legal name change for Mr. White. In particular, the classic performance of “Win In The End” that plays during the final championship basketball game scene most likely won him over.
Stylez G. White, I salute thee. If I was Scotty, I would tear open a beer with my wolf chompers in your honor. Thank you for passing on the love of an 80’s pop culture legend to a new generation. I know Chubby would be proud.
