Cocaine, Amphetamines, and Steroids

I like to see this site as a place where the status quo is taken on. As much as I dislike Barry Bonds the person, I hate watching anyone end up being the scapegoat for a large group of offenders. We have all heard the rumors of future Hall of Fame pitchers who [...]

Football Picks

Went 2-2 last week, with the Rams really dropping the ball at the end, in a game which they absolutely dominated. It was bad beat central last week, as you would know if you were on the Bears or Cardinals. I was all over the easiest side of the year, with the Eagles [...]

How Tim Raines’ Eligibility Opens Bigger Questions on Hall of Fame Inductment: Postnote Added

Let me begin this intellectual exercise by stating that Tim Raines should be elected to the Hall of Fame. Any player that Bill James rates as the 2nd best leadoff hitter of all-time should be in Cooperstown. Now let me also add that Joe Jackson and Pete Rose should be there, as well. [...]

Let’s Just Forget Last Week’s Picks

My football selections last week had the sucking power of Marilyn Chambers during her prime.  Let’s hope this week is better.  I only liked 1 college game this week, so didn’t mess with the limited schedule.  (If you can still get down on Oklahoma, I highly recommend it.)
NFL
Cleveland (-3) Houston
St. Louis (+3) Seattle
Philly (+24) New [...]

Supporting Most of the Troops

The biggest misunderstandings in regards to standup comedy is that comics like to be heckled. While most of the audience understands this, there are a surprising amount who don’t. Very few comedians are very adept at dealing with hecklers. Some comics have a character they inhabit, others are very low-key in their [...]

Diamond Views of Alex Rodriguez

Recently I was contemplating the world of Alex Rodriguez. I kept coming back to the idea that he is a Solitary Man. This got me to thinking, where better to go to explain his recent Yankees past and future, than with the lyrics of one Neil Leslie Diamond? Hopefully Scott Boras will use [...]

College Picks 4-1 last week. 30-22 for the Season

In a college football world where teams like South Florida, Kansas, Missouri, and Boston College can make appearances in the Top 5, one thing holds true. The Juice Blog will bring you winners on the games. While I went 2-3 in the NFL last week, the regular season game of all-time went about [...]

The Complete History of Candy (Juice Blog Style)

During my time at this blog, I’ve written on some pretty insubstantial topics. The following piece might be the biggest waste of space on the internet, well besides this. The idea started as a follow-up to my orignal post on candy bars, as I would cover the non-candy bars [...]

Jerry Seinfeld on Alex Rodriguez and the Mets

Hey, have you heard? Jerry Seinfeld has a new movie out. I actually heard an interesting interview on his promotional tour on Friday. Comedian Jim Breuer has a really fun show every weekday afternoon on Sirius Satellite Radio and he did a great interview with Seinfeld. There can’t be 2 comics who [...]
