Even at his very young age, he had a choice to make. Or become a football player. He chose the latter. A wise decision, given all he’s accomplished by the age of 24. A scholarship to the finest football program in the land. Capturing a national championship. Graduating with his Master’s Degree. Getting drafted in the 1st round. Becoming the best rookie quarterback in his celebrated class. Leading his team to the playoffs....

Did you know that the world ispredictedto produce more than 50 million metric tons of e-waste this year? Gadgets play a big part in this. Just consider that5.3 billion smartphonesare expected to be thrown away in 2022. More durable products will likely result in fewer sales over time due to lower replacement rates. According toMatthew Cockerill an innovation consultant manufacturers are already starting to focus on making their tech products last longer....

Where has the time gone? America has changed a lot. So where do men like us go to sew their wild oats? Here are 6 surprisingly fun cities where real men can make a fantastic living. it’s possible for you to spend an Italian themed evening at Pomodori Osteria & Bar. Or a Mexican evening at Elements Tapas Bar. If neither of those are quite your speed, try out Misoya Bistro for an authentically Asian experience....

Just hope Hamlin comes out of this OK. The pro football world paused to deal with a truly unprecedented situation and made the right call. However, Week 18 is slated to roll on as scheduled. Houston has the inside track and is likely to select a quarterback. Can’t really go wrong, but I like Anderson. The Texans are on the road in Indy, while Chicago hosts the Vikings sans Justin Fields....

But AR has fallen short of expectations. How many people do you know who wear smart glasses regularly? 2023 is poised to be the year of AR glasses, but why exactly? 40% off TNW Conference! So where is it now? And where is it headed? Except the notes are data that change and adapt to the viewed environment. HUDs were originally developed for military aviation. But now HUDs are used in other sectors, like automobiles and commercial aircraft....

This trend is set to accelerate as demand for electric andautonomous vehiclesgrows. Financial problemsat parent company Softbankand an expanding pool of rivals have triggered concerns about Arms long-term prospects. 40% off TNW Conference! As such, advances into the automotive space is a logical next step for Arm. Another risk for Arm is increasing competition from the RISC-V Foundation. Headquartered in Switzerland, the nonprofit produces an open-source chip architecture thats attracting swelling interest....

Last week, like many folks in America, I had family in town for the holidays. Against my better judgement I accepted the assignment and we planned to make a day out of it. The day was to start at the West Side Market. The market itself, however, is pretty cool. It has around 50 vendors selling butchered meats, homemade jams, fresh pasta, and even exotic fruits. We’ll get to the exotic fruit and my current predicament in a moment....

You guys know the Chicago drafts. Different category every week, rotating guest, and lots of good banter between the fellas. BUT NOT ME RIGHT NOW! That graphic got tweeted last night and I didn’t sleep a damn wink! Timberlake going first overall in an SNL draft?!? That’s like Gritty going first overall in an NHL draft, sorry Gretzky! I listened to it to get the reasoning. And to that, to quote the great Jeremy Grey, I say “Erroneous!...

This one came to me when I rented an AirBnB on a lake in Connecticut. The landlady stopped by to see how we were doing and answer any questions we might have. Or possible just to double-check we weren’t destroying the place. Which genuinely impressed all of us who were staying there, because we’re fans. There were two things I haven’t forgotten about that. And two, how the woman could not quit mentioning how short he is....

Aloha bitches!!! Starting this year, they have also invited anyone else who made the Tour Championship as well. Everyone who qualified except for Rory McIlroy has elected to play, which is a bit peculiar. Especially given that this is one of the newly minted “elevated” events on Tour. That’s his prerogative. This tournament is one of the great birdiefests on Tour. I’ll get into why shortly, but last year’s event in particular was out of control....

I don’t mean to be too crass here, but what the actual fuck? Listen I get it, the NBA season is 82 games long, losses happen, blah blah blah. We all understand that. But again I ask, what the actual fuck? This time against a Thunder team who was missing their best player in SGA. Fully healthy outside of Rob’s rest day. On no planet should that result in one of the most embarrassing losses in franchise history....

Happy New Year to you! If youre in the market for a newcareer(and, lets face it, who isnt right now? Most people presume looking for a job early in the new year is futile, but thats a myth. Hiring is a year-round process, and theres never a bad time to apply for a job. Whats more, right now is actually one of the best times to apply. Leadership needs to move quickly on the recruitment front, thanks to the war-for-talent environment....

2022 was a forgettable year for a variety of reasons. I’m personally looking to move past 2022. Some ups, some big wins, but a lot of downs overall. Even with those downs, the one positive was the ability to pick futures. Iblogged last Novemberthree NCAA Basketball picks to cut down the nets in April. One of those three picks cashed in…The Kansas Jayhawks. I again then gave out Kansas at +1300 before the tournament....
