Giving Thanks for Family and My Life in Sports

vSportsTalk - By Gil Vieira

Thanksgiving…my favorite holiday. I also love the true meaning of Christmas, but it has become far too commercialized.  Is there anything better than gathering with family and being thankful for our life together? There’s a saying that hits home every time I hear it…”Traditions are stories that families write together…keep writing our tradition.”  With the loss of my parents a number of years ago, our family traditions will continue to be written by my nephew,…

Happy Veterans Day…1969, Mud Amidst the Mangroves

By Billy O’Connor (Da Mick)

When I was nineteen, I was stationed in a remote Laotian village bordering the Mekong River. I was an Irish kid from the Bronx, nearly 14,000 miles from home. It had been a twenty-two-hour plane ride to get, “in country” and another four excruciating hours strapped to a cloth harness attached to the perimeter of a cargo plane to arrive in Nakhon Phenom, a town Bob Hope called, “the armpit of the world.” My first day…

When Did Sports Analysts Become Comedic Buffoons?

vSportsTalk - By Gil Vieira

Here’s a tip right off the top for sports analysts, especially the pre and post-game commentators….leave comedy to the professionals. October has always been utopia for sports fanatics.
