A Real American Hero…

Posted: March 31, 2009 at 7:01

Somebody once said something about either being born great or having greatness thrust upon you. They left out Michael Kinahan, a man who burst out of greatness’ chest and terrorized its crewmates. What job could possibly be held by a man who pisses excellence with as much style as Kinahan? What position in the world [...]

Fear and Loathing in Manch-Vegas…

photo courtesy USCHO.com My throat is raw from screaming. I have bruises all over my legs. I probably dropped a few days off my life by drinking my weight in cheap beer. But now that all is said and done, BU is going to the frozen four in Washington, DC. This weekend was everything I [...]

Evidently, she did not love his nuts…

I was all set to close up shop for the weekend to enjoy a lot of beer and hockey, when I get an email from my internet friend Eric, linking me to the single greatest thing to ever happen. Vince Offer (nee Vince Shlomi), better known as the shamwow guy, was arrested for allegedly beating [...]

The only reason to ever go to Manchester…

This is Matt Gilroy. He’s the Senior co-captain of the Boston University Men’s Hockey Team. He’s the only player to named an All-American in the last two seasons, and is well on his way to the third. He’s currently one of ten finalists for the Hobey Baker Award (along with fellow Terrier Colin Wilson), awarded [...]

Twist off the Champagne (of beers) cap…

Apparently this site got its 1000th visit at some point on Sunday, March 22. Because I’m too lazy to figure out who was the lucky 1000th visitor, I’m going to go ahead and assume that it was the resident of Monchengladbach, Germany who landed on my page full of swimsuit models. Danke schoen, mein freund. [...]

I hate peter travers’ review of I love you, man…

Posted: March 26, 2009 at 4:21

So my plan last week was to fire up the way-back machine and do my thing with Peter Travers’ zero-star review of Bad Boys II, arguably the second greatest Henry Rollins movie of all time. I ran into a slight hitch when I realized that, for a movie he considers to be in the category [...]

The new Mastodon will rock your face…

Posted: March 25, 2009 at 2:27

While you were off doing whatever it is you do at 1 p.m. on Tuesdays, I was out at Newbury Comics buying the new Mastodon album, Crack The Skye. Yes, I not only spent money on music, I actually received a physical disc (with bonus DVD) in exchange for that money. I wouldn’t do something [...]

This is how we do things in Florida…

Posted: March 17, 2009 at 11:39

On a previous episode of Seitz. Writes., I mentioned that I was going down to Florida for a week to visit my family. I’ll spare you the boring details of sunburn and misadventures on Pine Island, and skip to the totally awesome details of my send-off dinner. As I was driving home from seeing my [...]

So that’s how this works…

I’ve been messing around with Google Analytics a lot lately, and it seems that my most popular post is my nuanced dissertation on the relative merits of this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue versus those of the previous year’s (with picture evidence). Who would have ever thought that a post filled with pictures of models [...]
