by Justin Cherot I’m an athlete playing for a franchise in Dallas with an owner who, for better or worse, will throw money at everything and hopes a championship will materialize. I’ve got undeniable talent, and every year my statistics are through the roof. But every year–every single f#$%in’ year–I have to hear the same … Read more

Colin and I are equal opportunity sports’ enthusiasts… okay, at least Colin is. But, I’m a realist: football is America’s favorite sport (attention anyone who just asked about baseball: you … Read more

by Justin Cherot Fun facts about me that you can’t Google using this link or this link: There’s an unreleased mixtape starring myself and G-Fury (AKA Greg Lambert, who just became the sprinting coach at the University of Richmond.

by Colin Donohue Ahhhh, to be a D.C. sports fan. How easy it is for the fans and the general public to poke fun at the futility of our franchises. The Wizards have one NBA championship and several painful seasons in their history. The Caps have never won a Stanley Cup but are now legitimate … Read more

by Colin Donohue As I wrote in an earlier post, Justin has this NBA thing on lock. So I’ll try to focus some of my attention on NHL matters. I know hockey isn’t necessarily the sport of choice for many of our readers, but I’m banking on the fact that some folks out there, however … Read more

By Justin Cherot Yes, PnP didn’t go all CBA or XFL on you guys. Both Colin and I have had busy weeks–me with school and work, Colin with teaching the kiddies. For the sake of renewing my writing vigor, I’ve decided to come out of the woodwork. After all, if I’m going to deliver the … Read more

by Colin Donohue I’m back after almost two weeks. I figured that I could never do better than a post about the awkward hilarity of former NBA bona fide superstar Gheorghe Muresan. (C’mon. Does it get any better than Craig Kilborn saying, “Doesn’t matter who won the game. Hor-hay wins with this move.” The answer? … Read more

by Colin Donohue I was sitting here at work today, thinking about PnP and trying to decide what new kinds of features Justin and I could include on the blog.

Here are a few quick thoughts I’ve been tossing around for a few days. It’s fun to watch Tiger Woods when he’s hot. I don’t watch a lot of PGA golf because I typically don’t find it that compelling. I know. It’s probably ignorant of me to make such an assertion. But really, to me, … Read more
