Snoozer Yet Again..


Another Hofstra/Delaware matchup passes, and the same result is in. Hofstra WINS, Hofstraaaaaaa Wiiiiiiiiins.


The Big City Classic, at "The Mecca" Giants Stadium took place yesterday. In the 3rd and final game of the Triple Header, Hofstra defeated Delawhere? 10-8. The 7th ranked Pride are poised and ready for the NCAA Tourney this year, and nothing short of a Final Four will be accepted in my eyes. (expect a first round exit)


Sorry Easy E,

Fresh Grass, Nice Dirt, ALL HATE


Finally, Baseball is back. With that being said, ya'll know what that means. BASEBALL CHALLENGE is here. We created our group, we picked our teams, and most of us have some hate ready to be spewed.


What Baseball Challenge entails is this: You pick a every defensive position, a DH, and a Pitching Staff, based off of a salary cap of 50 million. 1 point for a single, 2 for a double, 3 for a triple, 6 for a solo homer. Runs, Stolen Bases are also 1 point. Pitching is as follows. You get a point per out. -1 per hit, -3 per ER, and -1 per base on balls. If your team wins, you get +5. Sounds Easy, and it is. You just have to stay on top of the variables. Weather, Matchups, and Doubleheaders. Stay eye on the prize.


Our group name is "The Haters Ball", and has the nations biggest haters. Lazy E, Mikey Fells, and Jumpoff J, and myself are all after the prize. OHHHHH MAINNNN.

Who will win? Me


I will keep ya updated.

Jumpoff J Weekly Recap vol. PlaxiCUT Burress


I don't recall the last time I got SERVED so fucking bad in a given week.

First serving occurs on Tuesday morning. I go to the dentist to have a "small" cavity filled. I'm like okay, drill that little motherfucker, fill it up, and get me the hell out of here. Dentist is drilling when he says to me "Oh wow, I see a little piece of your NERVE sticking out. Maybe that's why your teeth are very sensitive and you feel pain. We're going to have to give you root canal treatment. SERVED #1.

I leave to go into work late and I'm bombarded as soon as I walk in. Requests here. Taking meetings here. Blah blah blah. I didn't even change my fantasy basketball team that morning. SERVED #2.

Throughout the day I log on to ESPN to cater to my sports misery. And what do I see on the front page? "Ichiro placed on DL with ulcer." MY favorite baseball player in the league is put onto the 15 day DL at the start of the season. SERVED #3.

Friday comes along and I'm just fucking HYPED for Saturday. You know, for the Final Four? Maybe you heard of it? I'll get into that in a second. Anyway, I'm sitting at my desk doing work/hating on the Easy E and Brian via e-mail when I get an e-mail from ESPN moblie. "ESPN News- Giants announced that they have released WR Plaxico Burress, who faces gun charges." EPIC SERVED #1 There goes the G-Men's only deep threat playmaker, and debatebly a top 3 wide receiver next to King Colston and Larry Fitzgerald. I don't even know what we're going to do anymore.

The Final Four jumpoff that we had been hyping all week happened last night, and thankfully folks, WE'RE STILL ALIVE! We had UCONN winning this game. Unfortunately they suck chode and got tooled by Kalin Lucas & Co. SERVED #4! It just shows that the Big Least sucks, and is overrated. My homeboys Danny Green and Psycho T dd work on Nova though. UNC is still left in our pool. So I guess not ALL is bad. We're pulling for them to win it all tomorrow! Let's do this son! Allllll dayyyyyy!

I'm out folks! I've got a fantasy baseball draft in a half hour. I'll holla when I see ya.

April Fools? NO? WTF?


I go onto one of my favorite websites today for Mid Major Athletics, CAAZone.com. I then get to my favorite part of the site, Hofstra's board. Once the page is done loading, I see a thread entitled Pecora extended through 2014. My first inclination was "ahahahah, April Fools", regardless I click to open the thread. I read it over, and see a link. Still i'm thinking fake link, April Fools. I open the link, and its effin real. WTF is Hofstra thinking? Are they stupid? Obviously. Why bring this guy back? Are they going for the record of longest stints without an NCAA birth? Or do they want the record for softest schedule in the country for the 10th straight year. I heard it through the grape vine we have a home game vs. Lindenhurst Girls JV this year. That should really boost our RPI.


Tom Pecora extended? I am so peeved.


BTW. New Beat the Streak. I am 1-1, with Phoenix going for me right now. Lets go. 13 straight wins gets you a free shirt.

It's happening again...


So we started this blog off by telling you guys how terrible our teams are. So far, all 8 of you are probably thinkin, what the hell is "The tremendous trio" talking about...well, it's happened before, and as the title of this blog says...it's happening again. As I write this to you the Penguins have just scored their SIXTH goal of the game, and have a 6-1 lead over the former New Jersey Devils. I call them "former", becuase they aint the team they were a few weeks ago. In about 20 minutes, the Devils will have completed their 6th consecutive loss, and with the season winding down, it looks like they are bombing at just the right time. Usually I'd be a little sour about this, but the Mets have had 2 end of season collapses the past 2 years, and the Jets had a marvelous end of season collapse this season. The Devils are just doing exactly what the Tremendous trio expects...Letting them down.


It's Happening Again. And I don't like it.
