New Orleans « THE GREAT WAHL

A Man of the People

By Wahl, on May 5, 2010, at 11:21 am | Comments are closed

By now, everyone has heard of and/or seen the 17-year old kid getting the raw end of a taser for running onto the field during the Philadelphia Phillies game earlier this week. Apparently TheGreatWahl.com has gained quite a reputation for hating on Philly, because I have so far gotten no less than 14 emails, [...]

Run Forrest, Run

The 2010 running of the Boston Marathon took place yesterday. And I’m proud to say that a couple of regular Great Wahl celebrities ran really well. They aren’t Ethiopian or Kenyan, so they didn’t win. But Tony and Julia definitely held their own:

As a frame of reference, Cheruiyot is the overall male [...]

Amazing Aniston

So, as most of you know, I was went to a bachelor party in New Orleans last weekend.

I flew on Delta, connecting through Memphis. It’s the first time I’ve connected, and not flown direct, on a domestic flight in over four years. And for good reason. First, I hate it. Second, it’s [...]

My Winning Bracket

Because I needed another excuse to promote The (FREE!) Great Wahl Bracket Challenge where you can win a Great Wahl mug, I am posting my winning (and I only fill out on each year) bracket for the world to copy.

I won a big Baltimore bracket pool in 2008 because there were a decent [...]

Gold Medal Strippers

(Quick Editor’s Note: Miami probably accounts for less than 1% of my daily web hits, but between Rachel and Evan, they sure do send a lot of content for The Wahl. Much appreciated. Though Rachel tends to send me things on topics like lingerie football and strippers. I wonder what she thinks my target [...]

Imparting My iPhone Wisdom: Part II

By Wahl, on February 11, 2010, at 12:08 pm | 4 comments - (Comments are closed)

I made a post about the apps on my iPhone a couple of days ago.

The main complaint I received, mostly from Sweisen, was that I just showed the screenshots from my phone and didn’t really explain any of the apps. I figured that people with iPhones could just look them up in iTunes, [...]

I always find too many informative political and economic articles to share, so I’ll select a few and throw them all in to one post of important stuff you should read to get your week started:

1. Maybe we shouldn’t be blaming our leaders for not being able to lead:

A thought-provoking read from [...]

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 [...]

Exclusive Content from a Super Bowl Party

I don’t think I can technically say ‘Super Bowl’ in this post without Rodger Goodell coming in the middle of the night and murdering my first born, but I’ll risk it.

For the unfamiliar, my college buddy, Evan (who rides the coattails of his sister’s ‘Say Yes to the Dress’ fame), lives in Miami [...]

One Hundred In One

Fifty days until the one year anniversary of My Fitness Project (March 21st).

Through the end of January, I have lost 84.5 pounds. To get to one hundred pounds in one year, I have to lose 15.5 pounds in the next month and half. That also happens to coincide perfectly with Caponiti’s Bachelor [...]
