Guest Commentary By Armando Castro When I came back from Afghanistan, I thought the worst was over. But figuring out how to claim my veterans’ benefits turned out to be another war, one fought with confusing forms, unanswered calls, and endless delays. For months, I tried to handle it all myself. I called the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offices, …
Hey everybody, welcome back to another NFL weekly preview! We’ve reached Week 10 of the 2025 NFL Season, and we have also officially passed this season’s trade deadline. Normally, the NFL trade deadline is not that exciting, but this season proved to be different! The Jets decided to ship off a couple stud players from the top of their salary …
Prop 50 is going to win handily, which most political operatives have known for weeks. Moreso, it was always going to win handily. The reason: Math. Because politics is always about math.

We have officially reached the midpoint of the NFL regular season! Personally, I always have to remember to savor the season, because it truly flies by compared to the other major sports. We had an alright week of picks in Week 8, so let’s see if we can build off of that momentum and have a strong showing in Week …
Hey everybody! Welcome to another NFL preview, now Week 8. Since our hot start, the record has cooled off a bit, but we won’t let that stop us from making some bold picks! Week 8 has six teams on the bye (and I know nobody cares about my fantasy team) but I happen to have most of my team taking …
The State is required to withhold the sword from an individual’s right to practice his faith. So you think the U.S. is a geographic area where individuals are free to pursue their faith despite the ethic that comes from such? What if an individual’s faith rejects self evident truth and inalienable rights? Let’s think. Did John Locke believe all men …
Crazy to think we’re already approaching Week 7 in the NFL! Normally at this point in the season, there are a few teams that begin to separate themselves from the rest of the pack. This year seems to be an exception so far – the teams who are all 4-1 or 5-1 (Steelers, Colts, Bucs) do not seem to be …

Guest Commentary By Aaron J. Byzak I was watching the news on my recent flight and saw the recent (ahem)… outburst from the leading candidate for Governor of California. And it got me thinking, so I decided to write this article as I traveled home from Cleveland to San Diego. Over the course of my career, I’ve worked for and …
Alright, I won’t sugarcoat anything — my picks were absolutely HORRIFIC last weekend! To be fair, we did see a lot of upsets and crazy endings, including a Cardinals loss to the Titans that had us all scratching our heads. Even though it was an awful weekend to follow my picks, I am up for the challenge of bouncing back …

Happy October everybody! We’re only a month into the NFL season, and we only have two undefeated teams remaining. The season so far has included many tight finishes, upsets, and memorable moments.

Welcome to Week 4 of the NFL season everyone! Last weekend was filled with some amazing finishes, including several field goal game winners. The Rams and Eagles played an instant classic, with the Eagles blocking a field goal to cap off a heroic second-half comeback to stay undefeated.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang trying to characterize this kid who killed Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.” Saying that during his Monday night monologue, Jimmy Kimmel generated quite a reaction, as well as a suspension. Yet it looks …
Hi all, and welcome to Week 3 of the NFL! Crazy to think we’re already here, and through two weeks, we’re starting to get a glimpse of the identities of each of these teams. A quick summary of what we think we know so far: The Dolphins are an absolute TRAINWRECK. Nobody seems like they want to be there, and …
Guest Commentary By Dr. Gary Cass Now that I’ve had a little time for the fog to clear after feeling like I was concussed by a hand grenade at the news of Charlie Kirk’s death, here’s what I see. My friends, family members, and people I know who love the Lord have taken up sides — myself included. We name …

Life isn’t just about politics. Indeed, what about sports? Unless of course you’re a fan of the Dodgers or Raiders and thus have no life, there is so much more to the world than politics. No doubt, lots of political junkies also love all that sports competition has to offer. That shouldn’t be a surprise, as there are plenty of …
