On A Drynuary Diary: Week One
@John Ore Yeah when I got to the part about the Winter Classic I had an "Oh, I see what you're doing here" moment.

Damnit, I meant Sweet Dreams. Apparently, my bracket reading skills are diminished when it's not college hoops season.

"Don't You Want Me" getting a #9 seed is SHOCKING, the selection commitee should be ashamed of itself.
Also, "Freedom '90" over "Since U Been Gone" is clearly this year's 5/12 upset.

On Football And Nachos, The Texan Way
As a Dallas native, these two subjects are near and dear to my heart. To me, the perfect nacho contains no more or less than the following: Chip, refried beans, cheese, and mesquite grilled chicken, with a little sour cream or guacamole on the side for dipping. Good luck finding decent refried beans in NYC though. Goya comes the closest, but nothing can touch the frijoles refritos that are made from scratch (with lard!) in kitchens across Texas and Northern Mexico.
As for the Cowboys, I was genuinely shocked to find that everyone didn't adore them when I left Texas. But since I've learned to love being a thorn in everyone's side, I haven't really minded being the only Dallas fan at any given bar on Sundays.

I prefer 4E, but maybe that's just me.

On Why Will Leitch Burned All His Baseball Cards: A Q&A
A couple years ago some friends and I were killing time on a trip to Sag Harbor and found a shop that was selling cases of old unopened baseball cards, organized by year. We bought a case from the 80s, hoping there would be something of value inside. Obviously, none of them were worth a dime, but what they lacked in financial value they made up in ludicrous hair styles. I still regret trying to chew the gum.
