All Jays fans remember J.P. Arencibia's major league debut. He homered on the first pitch of his first at-bat, a two-run shot to left in the second. He added another first-pitch homer in the sixth, and finished with four hits. Arencibia demonstrated a whole lot of power out of

I have a vivid and frightening memory of watching Polka Dot Door on TVOntario in the very early 80s (or was it the late 70s?) and getting spooked by the opening theme of Doctor Who. I first wrote about this scarring memory almost 7 years ago but now, thanks to
It's December, and that means you'll likely need to assemble a Christmas party playlist for a holiday party or two. A great deal of Christmas music is awful, but there are a few dozen or so I can stomach. Here are my personal favourite Christmas songs if you need a

I have a question for the hivemind. I enjoy a good podcast, and even produce a few of my own. I'm interested in discovering new podcasts that would entertain, educate and/or enlighten me. What podcasts do you currently enjoy?

I must have watched this Sports Illustrated commercial a hundred times back in the '80s. I had no idea the guy looking for the all new Not-So-Great Moments in Sports video was a young John Slattery, best known as Roger Sterling on Mad Men.
I've asked Mark Irvine a.k.a. Irv to stop commenting on this blog. If he does comment, I'll delete it. I didn't arrive at this conclusion lightly. Earlier today I received a second threat from him this week. Quite simply, I'm not going to accept that. This blog, which
Commenter Ben doesn't always use the divider when putting his groceries on the conveyer belt. He also calls the divider "a baton", which may or may not be the proper term. I haven't got around to Googling that one yet... Ben just tweeted at me that he's not an asshole
The other day, while I was watching the Leafs game, the broadcast experienced an issue with their audio mix. The sound of the game remained loud, but those in the booth became quite muted. For a glorious five minutes I watched the game only hearing the crowd, the players and

Don't let the temperatures fool you. It might be 0° out there with a chance of flurries, but it's quite warm if you layer up and go for a bike ride. I just finished a 14km route along the waterfront and snapped these pictures of a cool and crisp afternoon
Just last month I was ranting about the banner MLSE was raising in the ACC for Bon Jovi. It's all starting to make a little more sense. Current Buffalo Bills owner, Ralph Wilson, is 95-years old. As soon as he kicks the bucket, Jon Bon Jovi may lead a group
It's November 24th and I've only watched one quarter of NFL football this season. I caught the final quarter of Denver's 51 - 48 win over Dallas on October 6 and I got sucked in because it was Peyton Manning and I couldn't believe the number of points on the
I was just looking at the NHL statistical leaders and there are a number of ex-Leafs at or near the top. As of this moment, the best save % in the league belongs to Tuukka Rask with .945. We gave up Rask in a deal for Andrew Raycroft I'd rather not

Before the program began, it had been reported across the nation that president John
Rob Ford's on a media blitz, repeating the same tired talking points to Ford Nation in the hopes he will be re-elected next October. With a glove tap to Matt Elliott, here are his five most frequently uttered lies. If you hear him spew this nonsense, know it's just another
