I know, I know… it’s just a robe that you wear backwards.  But the Snuggie(TM) has hit the pop culture scene as much as any infomercial product ever has.  It’s as ubiquitous as The Clapper, the ShamWow, or anything the late, great Billy Mays ever hawked. Before Billy’s untimely...

As an original Dallas Mavericks fan (yes, 1980-81, I was a glutton for punishment even at young age), never living anywhere near Dallas, I’ve had to follow the team from a bit of a distance.  In the 80’s and early 90’s that meant seeing them on TV when they played the Nets and Knicks...

Shaq has been promoting the hell out of his TV show Shaq Vs.  The concept behind this show is that Shaq will challange other pro athletes at their own sport - simple yet entertaining.  The Big Man has taken all hte credit for the idea until a story came out of the original mastermind.
