It’s time, it’s time!  We’re two days away from the official beginning of spring, and I’m ready to start harvesting that beautiful produce for my meals!  Let’s check out some of the best ingredients and how to use them. Why Buy In Season? From your wallet to your waistline, buying in-season produce can benefit you. First, price.  When you eat a great deal of produce, it can get costly.  We spend fully 2/3 of our grocery budget on fruits and vegetables, and we buy almost exclusively in season.   Although we enjoy bananas year-round, you won’t catch me spending $5 a…

Ah, it’s springtime and March Madness is here. I can already hear the buzzer, the shrieking crowd as a big-name goes down—and the sound of some 14 seed setting off an atom bomb on my bracket… I love to pick my bracket every year, don’t you? Every year I think I’ve totally got it locked down and then it dies a painful death. Well, I’m a glutton for punishment so here I am again making my bracket public. You can view by clicking right here. Feel free to follow along with me during the tournament. Also, feel free to bust…

If you’re like me, you want high quality protein but want to avoid soy if possible.   I’ve come up with a mix of vegan proteins that works well together, tastes pretty darn good, and is great for both bulking and cutting. I choose to skip soy for many reasons.   First, because soy is added to everything from baby formula to protein bars to facial creams.  I try not to eat anything in excess, and this big soy push scares me. Second, soy isoflavones depress thyroid function, thereby decreasing metabolism and causing other thyroid diseases.  The last thing I need when…

Airports all over the country have been very busy this past week filled with NFL free agents seeking out new teams. Although it is an uncapped year, not too many large contracts have been signed, so there probably flying coach. The Cleveland Browns two-headed disaster at QB has been moved this past week and seemed long overdue. Speaking of overdue, Rex Ryan had a successful weight loss surgery performed. LaDainian Tomlinson made up his mind about where to play, but what other minds may have been impacted in the process? Which NFL players won’t need a return flight and which…

Over the last few months I have come  into some ugly situations, because of scammers and blackmailers. This gets me soooo pissed, it is like these people are dropping a DEUCE on the community, they are the DEADWEIGHT of this community, and I can’t stand for it.  I made a promise to anyone who asks for my help, now I must repay them for this. First I would like to apologize , I was scammed myself , by becoming part of that UBBC.com, which happens to be a David Wayne Pope board,  I was unaware of this until I started…

The Quarterback market in the NFL this season is starting to look untenable. There are too many guys who need homes and not enough spots to go around. I suppose I should rephrase that: There are not enough starting spots to fulfill huge egos. The market is going to get saturated after the Draft because we’ll have to incorporate all the rookie Quarterbacks into the fold. With every team having 3 QBs on the depth chart that equals 96 slots. Unfortunately, only 32 of those spots are for starters. Add to that the bad news that some teams are receiving…

It is nearly a year ago since Liverpool had their little resurrection. Coming out with play not seen since their 90s days, they managed to absolutely slaughter top teams Manchester United and Real Madrid. Just a few days ago, however, they suffered defeat at the hands of lower-level team Wigan, in a humuliating 1-0 loss. Fans were not happy with Liverpool manager, Rafael Benitez. This totals 9 losses since the season start, and now, even though Liverpool have been very supportive of their manager, it seems as if Benitez can do no more. There has seemingly been little to no…

Baseball’s National League is old school in the sense that pitchers still hit for themselves. That is also why the NL average ticket price is considerably lower than the AL. No one wants to see Cole Hamels holding “the wood”, unless it is kindling for a camp fire. The NL recently got the AL’s best pitcher in Roy Halladay. This makes the Phillies strong contenders to go to their third straight World Series. The Cubs set out to win their first World Series since America abolished slavery. What teams will be representing the NL in post season play? Could we…

Josh Neer has been fighting for a good 8 years now. In that time the Iowa native has been fortunate enough to face some of the top lightweights and welterweights around like Spencer Fisher and the brothers Nick and Nate Diaz. He holds notable victories over Melvin Guillard and Ultimate Fighter winners Joe Stevenson and Mac Danzig. Neer hasn’t wasted any time since he ended his third stint in the UFC with recent 1st round stoppage victories against Matt Delanoit and Anselmo Martinez. Less than a month ago, it was announced that Neer would get in the cage against Bellator…
