Sports -jake shlofrock → Is it me, or does an NFL quarterback have certain responsibilities?

The Shlaef Says…  To be a leader, a field general, a calming presence in the huddle is essential to any National Football League QB’s success.  I grew up worshipping the likes of Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Drew Brees.  These are gentlemen who preach more than just football and gamesmanship on the field.  They have… Continue Reading

Sports! Ace this golfers! Pucker up hockey buzz! Shoot a basket here, basket-ball jones! One, two three, HUT!

Let’s ralley! A sports column… I’ve observed Mr. Shlofrock, evolve through the years into a passionate young man.

It’s Thankful Thursday! It wasn’t a coincidence when I ran into Magdalena at Moishe & Isaac’s grocery store grabbing our green drinks two years ago.

“Anti Prom?”NOT…

Upon flicking through the NYT magazine, I plucked this from the Fashion & Style section. “Anti Prom?” I am not. Personally, I love it umm, minus the enslaved choker that is. While they’re not ball gowns, these are pieces that can certainly be “recycled” in your wardrobe. Some of the pieces may be regarded as… Continue Reading
