It’s Conference Championship time for the NFL this weekend, and though we’re left without the defending champs after getting bounced at home last weekend, we can live with the Niners/Giants and Ravens/Pats matchups – though we’ll miss Aaron Rodgers’ pregame photobombs.

The Super Bowl’s a gigantic event that brings media from all over the world to get hours upon hours of film, yet only one network actually carries the game.

The anticipation to see who plays for all the marbles should be enough for you to excited about, but besides that, here’s why you should be excited (and enjoy) the fact that this is the best weekend of the NFL season.

Just as I always bitch about New Year’s being a waste of time, I find Valentine’s day to be even more of a pain.  I mean at least with the New Year you can set resolutions for yourself.  You can reflect on stuff.    And yeah, I suppose on Valentine’s day you can reflect on your own relationship but what if you’re not in one?

I mean if anything I think that Valentine’s day does more harm than good and that’s why my wife and I don’t celebrate it.  And we don’t plan on it anytime soon.

But here are five reasons what Valentine’s day is a total joke…..

It seems everybody has an opinion on Starbucks these days. “They’re so overpriced,” “I’d rather buy mine locally,” or “Dude, coffee sucks.” We get the complaints, but honestly, setting up shop at one of the hundreds of franchises within a stones throw has nothing to do with any of that.

If you think writing for a website is all about sitting around in your pajamas in front of Sportscenter reruns, well, you’re only half right. The other perk is being able to work from anywhere, while getting tons of inspiration from the people around you – and there’s no better place than the ‘Bucks.

You see, the chicks that filter in and out of that place during the day are insane! Here are a couple reasons why you should drop the beef with how corporate it is, get rid of that dating account, and head over there… it may just land you that girl you see all over town!

One of the main issues we face today is time constraints.   We’re so bogged down during the week that we barely have time to even enjoy our weekends.   I mean I remember when I used to cherish my weekends because I had the opportunity to do nothing.   More to the point, the option to do nothing.

Nowadays it seems that our weekends are more busy than our regular weeks.  And frankly that sucks because the body really does need some time to unwind.

However, I think there are some ways that will make your weekends not only better and more relaxing, but more productive as well…..

There’s a saying that “Nothing good happens after midnight,” but unless you’re a parent worrying about where your 16-year-old is, we tend to disagree with the notion.

We feel like if you’re out past the start of a new day, your night’s actually a couple hours away from being over. Whether you’re partying all night, bored at home watching a movie, or even just dropping off a friend you just picked up from the airport, there’s reason to be excited about some things. One of which is late-night eateries.

We’ve all seen – and probably experienced – Taco Bell’s Fourth Meal. It’s fantastic, and needs to be celebrated for always being there to take care of us. But it’s not alone. These are some of the other spots we can salute as the best places to chow when needed.

Ever since Beavis and Butthead made its way back into our hearts I’ve been thinking about other shows that miss and hope will come back to television.  And for the record I’m not talking about sitcoms or talk shows.  I’m talking about shows that specifically called for comedy in the form of either crazy acts, skits, or just people being stupid.    So when you narrow it down, there aren’t too many shows that I think could successfully comeback.

And when I chose this list I was thinking of shows that would still have mass appeal even today.   Believe me, it’s not that easy.   Anyway, the list is after the jump….

We’ve talked before about how much TV we like to watch, but these days, there just aren’t a whole lot of shows we schedule our nights around. Is it sad that we still find ourselves watching reruns of Seinfeld and early seasons of The Office? Probably.

Just because we sit around and pay attention to out-of-date jokes and shows that have been off the air for over ten years, doesn’t mean we’re completely wrong though. It’s not our fault that stations aren’t making shows like Charles in Charge anymore.

That’s why we wanted to recognize the shows that used to make us feel good. The ones that we couldn’t miss an episode of; ’cause if we did, there wasn’t DVR to play catch-up for an entire night. These are the shows that we wish were still around.

It’s amazing that we’ve grown so far into the computer age (now it’s really the smartphone age) that we try and deduce our friends and families emotions by seeing what’s on a screen.

I mean depending on what people write we try to analyze what a person is really feeling having had no interaction with them at all.   Frankly it’s ludicrous but considering how much these gadgets are a part of our lives, it’s where we are at.

Speaking of which, you can tell a lot about a person by how they interact with and use Facebook. Here are five types of friend requests and what they really mean…..

The 69th Annual Golden Globes were held tonight – and yes, we’re laughing at the number too. It’s a night when Hollywood’s elite come together and drink champagne, mingle amongst each other, and pray to God that the host doesn’t roast them.

But while watching these stars flaunt their stuff and read from a teleprompter, it got us thinking – “Could we ever win a Golden Globe?” I mean, there’s success stories every year of people who are unknowns, somehow falling into a Producer’s lap, and next thing we know is on the cover of every mag talking about how they’re the next big thing.

We’re not necessarily thinking about quitting our day jobs – or night jobs for that matter, but if we were, this is how we’d plan on winning a Golden Globe.
