Just a reminder that you can follow me on Twitter - if you're into that sort of thing. And one housekeeping note, my Twitter name has changed. It's now @TheMattyI. No - I'm not that pretentious. But unfortunately, @MattyI and @Matty_I were taken. So I had to add a "The" into my Twitter handle. If you were already following me when it was @thephinsider, then you don't have to do anything to re-follow.

With news essentially slowing to a snail's pace as we continue to wait for a resolution to the lockout, I figured I might as well piggyback on yesterday's discussion regarding Channing Crowder....
Ever since Brandon Marshall was stabbed by his wife in their home back in April, he's seemingly has fallen off of the face of the earth. Well, except for when the police were again called to his...
Thank goodness for Channing Crowder. That was my initial reaction yesterday while I listened to a portion of his new weekly two hour radio show that debuted on Sunday on WQAM. The reason for my...
