Sports blooper time!
By Micah Warren | 3 Comments
I’m waiting to get picked up to go to lunch, so I thought I’d post some sports bloopers. We can’t understand a single lyric of the song, but we imagine it has “sports bloopers” or “whoopsy daisy” in the chorus. Because then it would be relevant. Eat lunch at your desk and […]

“Discoveries in genetics, physiology and nanotechnology are creating new challenges to definitions of cheating. Sports executives including Atlanta Falcons President Rich McKay and former World Anti-Doping Agency chief Dick Pound […]

An odd thing happened over the past couple weeks. Famous people affiliated with sports (players, coaches, and analysts), started emailing me with questions and comments.

Big changes coming to Off The Record
By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment
We’ve received a bunch of emails complaining that OTR wasn’t long enough and didn’t display enough stories. People were upset that they had to click the “Archives” button to see the stuff they missed. Well, your whiny complaints have been heard! We expanded our home page of the blog to include the […]
Fast Cars Can’t Get Busch?
By Perry | Leave a Comment
With 50 laps to go at Atlanta Motor Speedway, last week’s winner Carl Edwards left the track with a broken transmission and Kyle Busch took the lead and never looked back. Topping speeds of over 190 miles per hour, Busch continued to stretch his lead with every lap. The only way any other driver had […]
Things I find weird
By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment
This is something I find weird, but I’m not sure why. Remember Brad Daugherty, the talented center from the Cleveland Cavaliers? The basketball team? He’s an ESPN NASCAR analyst.
I find that weird.

By Perry | 1 Comment
I want to apologize for not getting Perry’s Mailbag up last Friday, especially to one of OTR’s dearest fans Lindsey.

Led by two freshmen who combined for 50 points (Jeff Teague and James Johnson), Wake Forest outlasted the Duke Blue Devils 86-73 on Sunday. The Blue Devils launched up 28 three-pointers (only making eight), shot 52% from the free-throw line, turned the ball over 21 times, and had every starter foul out of the game. […]
A Little Bit Of Everything

Not a real exciting Saturday in sports, but definitely some things to talk about. Superman made an appearance in New Orleans, Pavlik prevailed, Syracuse pulled off a big win, and Ricky Bobby is getting ready to go fast again.
New Orleans is host to the NBA all-stars this weekend and last night Dwight Howard and Gerald […]

I’ve been getting a ton of emails about how so much of the content goes off the main blog page so quickly because of new content. “My friend told me to check you’re stupid site because of some Brady Quinn gay story and nwo I can’t find it,” said one. Wow, that was […]

Perry: Shake And Bake!!!
By Micah Warren | Leave a Comment
I may have been the only one watching last night, but the Bud Shootout was fantastic. Cal Naughton Jr. edged out Ricky Bobby in the 70-lap race. What? Those guys are fictional characters you say? Well, I guess you didn’t read, ‘Perry Pictures His Jesus In A Mountain Dew Can.’ I’ll give you newcomers […]
Perry Pictures His Jesus in a Mountain Dew Can?
By Micah Warren | 1 Comment
‘If you ain’t first, you’re last?’ Words to think about this upcoming weekend as NASCAR kicks their 2008 season off at Daytona International Speedway. I’ll get to the schedule later, but that last sentence probably lost half my readers. NASCAR? Why are you writing about NASCAR? Because I’ve seen ‘Talladega Nights’ 23 times. That’s more […]
