BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

Move on up


Liverpool FC keeper Pepe Reina lets out a scream of delight as the Reds stormed into the UEFA Champions League semi-finals for the third time in four years after a stunning finish to the game brought three goals in eight minutes and a disappointing end to Arsenal FC's campaign. My youngest son -- who is an Arsenal fan -- is mildly upset. At least he knows dad's team is moving on.

Now we're off to dust off Chelsea and hopefully gain revenge on Manchester United. (pic from UEFA)
