Best Month Ever

Sure, February was a great month because I gained a new niece and I decided to move to Minneapolis, but equally as important: February was, by far, the best month ever for Great Wahl website traffic.

And when you factor in the fact that February is a short month, it becomes even more obvious that this [...]

Mind Your MANners: Don’t Drop the Soap

It’s hardly a routine column if I only submit once, so here comes submission #2 of Mind Your MANners. And this week’s rant will take what I expect to be the more light-hearted line that the column’s debut galloped right past. So, don’t expect a video of any head-bashing, but do expect to [...]

Mind Your MANners: Gutless in Seattle

The Great Wahl readers have had the chance to see my masculine side with NCAAF picks and more recently my sensitive side with a blurb on speed dating. But a side yet to be displayed to Wahl’s loyal readers is the critical, cynical and generally crabby side of BJones. Perhaps age, perhaps a [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day

Love is grand. Especially on the Jerry Springer Show.
Nothing puts you into the Valentine’s Day spirit like watching some good hair pulling and clothes ripping between lovers and their toothless mistresses:

Believe it or not, Jerry Springer has his own YouTube Channel with tons of videos in case you need to get more of a [...]

That means that this blog has to expand it’s horizons and try provide you with other unqiue, entertaining content for the next six months.

The Official Super Bowl Preview

It’s been a while since I’ve posted my full weekly NFL preview column on here. But it’s the Super Bowl, so I figure I might as well go out of the football season with one last big push. I have some recap stuff to get to once the season is completely over, and I will [...]

A Personal Request

BJones, The Great Wahl’s College Football Senior Writer, asked me to put together a quick commentary about last night’s Pro Bowl experiment…so here we go.
For the unfamiliar, the Pro Bowl is usually played in Hawaii the week after the Super Bowl. This year, it was played in Miami, the site of this year’s Super Bowl, [...]

College Football Picks: Play Like a Conference Champion Today

Last week: 8-5 straight, 6-6-1 vs. spread
Total: 41-19 (.683) straight, 33-25-2 (.569) vs. spread
I’ll let last week’s mediocre performance speak for itself, but just add that I once again picked WSU to lose by less than a gigantic margin and was wrong. This week’s theme is, you guessed it, conference championships, practically and/or [...]

College Football Picks: Cornucopia of Quick Picks

Last week: 5-1 straight, 3-3 vs. spread
Total: 33-14 straight (.702), 27-19-1 (.585) vs. spread
Last week, 31-point underdog Washington State got me again with their 32 point loss. This week, I’ll be betting against them again, as our theme will be in-state rivalry games. I’ll spare you long analyses of the many games as tryptophan may [...]

College Football Picks: Rushing to Conference Championships

Last week: 2-5 straight, 4-3 vs. spread
Season: 28-13 straight, 24-16-1 vs. spread
Last week’s numbers prove that there’s a reason we call them upsets. I am pleased that UCF over Houston was the one good upset I hit, but unhappy that it was not enough to drop the Cougars from the rankings, not enough to make [...]
