Rock ALWAYS Beats Scissors... A WNBA Blog

This is the first WNBA blog I have ever written, so please be patient. Certain records in sports will never be broken… - Cal Ripken Jr's 2,632 consecutive games played  - Wayne Gretzky's 2,857 career points - Richard Petty's 200 career NASCAR wins AND his 27 wins in a single season And last night we

What US President Allegedly Banged His Wife So Hard, He Broke A Bed In The Blair House?

First off… What the fuck is the "Blair House"? The Blair House is located on the other side of Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House. It has been called "the world's most exclusive hotel" because it is primarily used as a guest house to host visiting dignitaries. The POTUS also lives there whenev

9/11: Large's Reflection

I wrote this blog 7 years ago...  Morning. A number of readers have asked me to share my recollection of 9/11.  It does not differ from stories you have probably read before, and it's kind of long, but here it is, nonetheless. To get right to it, on Tuesday, September 11th, 2001, I was sitting at my

FACT: Swift/Kelce Is The SECOND Biggest Celebrity Engagement In History

Taylor and Travis getting hitched is HUGE news for MILLIONS throughout the United States and beyond.  Even the most casual sports fan knows who Travis Kelce is, and Taylor Swift’s popularity (or, at least, recognizability) reaches much further than his.  Admittedly, the announcement did not move my

NSFW/NSFL  NSFW/NSFL  NSFW/NSFL  NSFW/NSFL  NSFW/NSFL Every now and again, I catch myself hunched over my phone with the posture of a fucking jumbo shrimp as I am furiously 'doom-scrolling' until I find something so odd that it makes me question the future of this world.

Only One Player Can Say He Was Truly Drafted First In The NFL... And It's Not Cam Ward

In the wake of Deion’s kid not going until the 144th pick, I thought I would toss in a little Twisted History of the NFL Draft. And people fixated on draft coverage may have already heard some of this from either Mel Kiper or some other talking head as they try to kill time between picks. But for th

Twisted History is a petulant and irreverent look at the darker side of history hosted by two guys (Large and Vibbs) who had to look up the words “petulant” and “irreverent”. It’s been called a "delightful romp through the annals of murder and mayhem” by Large’s wife, and the series aims to entertain by shedding light onto some of the weirder skeletons that reside within the closets of History, Sports, Music, Politics, and Celebrity. Presented by Barstool Sports.

1950: The Golden Age of Twisted History

(excerpt from twisted history podcast) " ...What was it like being an American in 1950? The cost of living was significantly lower, with a new car averaging around $1,500, a house costing about $15,000, and everyday items like a gallon of gas at $0.27, a loaf of bread at $0.14, and a movie ticket fo

A List Of The Must Watch Gene Hackman Movies

Gene Hackman was an acting legend. You could blindly point anywhere on a list of his feature films and not hit a bad movie (unless you include the film that may or may not have ended his acting career - Welcome To Mooseport).  Hackman was nominated for an Oscar five times, and won twice.  He won “Be

Apparently, Frank The Tank Does More Than Just Walk

I was offered a couple of sumo wrestlers to interview the other day in conjunction with a series of live events that the International Sumo League is hosting in the Tri-State area over the next few months. I jumped at the opportunity because I’ve always admired the sport of sumo (from afar) for thre

"There were bodies in the trees!"

This is a history blog, so if you're looking for a blog scattered with GIFs like this...  You've come to the wrong place… Maybe not. Speaking of 'bodies' and 'trees', what's Sarah Underwood up to lately?… (#splinters) Anyhoo… I just recorded the Twisted History of 1978 with Chief… Chief is so fuckin

The Deadliest Movie Never Made

Ever hear the word “Atuk”… It's the Inuit word for "Grandfather" and the name of an unfilmed American screenplay, intended to be a film adaptation based upon the 1963 novel The Incomparable Atuk, by Mordecai Richler. It is also known as the cursed movie project that killed all of the lead actors att

In 2001, I was a gullible idiot.

Twenty-one years ago, the internet was in its infancy... Kinda... And the general public (me) had no clue how much deception lay within. Case in point: I was sitting at my desk at Citigroup minding my own business, trying to drum up a way to fuck people out of money so my bosses could take all the c
