My best to all social media friends in the New Year. God Bless.

Philadelphia Eagles: The end of the Andy Reid era is not one that I will be cheering.
He is among the best coaches to ever lead the team. I don't place him at the top, as there are many coaches who I never saw. Plus, winning percentages is only one measure of success. The many playoff appearances are also countered by the lack of a championship.
Rancor isn't on my tongue today. I wish him the best in his career and more importantly, peace in his family in 2013.
NHL Lockout: Multiple reports show that real progress is being made toward a settlement in the NHL lockout agreement. Cautious optimism must rule this day and the next few that will follow.

I encourage fans of any sport to attend one of these events when you can. The excitement of the crowd and the efforts of the fighters will likely win you over to this superb athletic adventure.
Here is my most recent feature article about a live XFE Cage Wars event that I attended.

This article consistently ranks among the most popular of the 1,400+ features that I've been fortunate to have published since February, 2011...
Classic headline: Those great hockey cards
Nothing topped the meaning that these hockey cards still hold. Here is the special feature that still ranks among the most-read articles that I've written since 2011:
Topps Hockey Card Mystery is Revealed.

Recent Headline Topic: Eagles and RGIII
Let me be very brief: If the Eagles had drafted someone like RGIII, would the world look vastly different right now? Of course.
The draft is so critical. Clearly, this area of the Eagles' operation has not been consistently good enough over the years. Regardless of a team's record, quality players must be added each season.
Injuries only provide a certain percentage of an 'explanation' for where this organization has gone during the past two seasons.
A new infusion of decision-makers is needed at a variety of levels in Eagle-town. Then, they will need a few years to have their plans work.

Baseball cards
Bygone days spent with elementary school days and family members opening packs of Topps cardboard gold never truly fade away.
Here is my special feature that highlights many of our childhood memories:
