had an irrational bond with their favorite athletes and
teams. Feats of athleticism evoke eruptions of euphoria

"I love NY" may be the famous motto of the Big Apple, but as of late, it's not
the mantra of any New York-based affiliates.

Didja miss me? I have been on a
12- week spring sabbatical – it
was sort of like paternity/maternity
leave without all the diapers.
Although, I am about to give birth to
a book and dealing with agents and
publishers requires putting up with a

been marketing, I've secretly lusted

Blendtec. I bet you are familiar
with Blendtec and I bet I know

clubs and hit at a driving range
for the first time a few months
ago. I had no clue what I was doing,

student to make my swing better. After
a few tries,... More By Pedro Sostre
