So, like the rest of our shallow country, I have been glued to the “Hilton Proceedings”. Are our lives so vapid that we need to know every move this sword-swallowing slut makes? The Dow Jones is up 160 points today… we have a new nominee for chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and all this while there is some...

This is a new feature I am trying out here at TMR. Suds With Securb “ Beer Destinations. When we are traveling there are many places that are listed on websites as beer destinations. When we get there we are sometimes disappointed to find a sub-par establishment with a questionable beer selection. This is my attempt to save you...

There is a commercial that is currently airing that states: as adults, we do not get “do-overs”. Oh, that is such a wrong statement. Look at Donald Trump. He was a multi-millionaire that went bankrupt and now he is a multi-millionaire again. The Donald even got a “do-over” twice in the bedroom... Ivana, Marla and now Melania. Donald is...

For those of you who have never been inside the Boston Garden let me tell you that staring at the rafters at the championship banners and retired numbers is awe inspiring. Yes, I said Boston Garden. I know the Boston Garden was torn down years ago and now we have the “Fleet Center TD Bank North Maybe Even ING...

It is kind of sad if you think about it. Here I am again, writing my Superbowl column, and once again Zack, Jason and my boys are marlin fishing off the coast of Southern Florida. It is no surprise that the Fish didn’t even make the playoffs. They have had four head coaches in the past three years. Dave...

I can’t believe this happened to me AGAIN. After last year’s holiday party, I swore I wouldn’t over-drink. Here I am again waking up on my office floor with a screaming hangover. We planned TheManRoom office holiday party for AFTER the holidays thinking by this time the excitement of the holiday season would have died down, thus giving us...

Let me start off by saying I know I am going to catch a lot of shit for this column. No, I do not have a head injury and I haven’t been paid off to write this. I know some of you might even think a video of me writing this column might run on Aljazeera with some bearded...

Anybody reading my column with any regularity knows my love for Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) beer. Pabst is one of those beers engrained in my youth that recalls hazy memories with each bottle consumed. Back in the 80’s when my vocation was a guitarist in a heavy metal band, PBR was our “band beer.” When you are a broke...

Last year, almost a year to the date, I met Jim Koch for the first time. Since then, I have had some chance meetings with the founder of the Boston Beer Company, most notably at his Sam Adams brunch in Denver last September. At that brunch, the entire menu was cooked with Sam Adams beers. Jim always wants to...

Sometimes a bit of writers block can be broken up by the simplest things. I had 3 or 4 different columns started that I hit a roadblock on before starting this one. Right now, I am wondering how smoothly and quickly this will go. I had no plans on sitting down to write this evening, I simply planned on...
