As we’ve harped on before, coming up with content on international weeks is hard. Okay, on week’s like this one, it isn’t that hard. What with the US Men’s National Team demolishing Honduras after having their German shackles removed and Christian Pulisic being ordained the official second coming. But with minimal MLS to report on, and no Premier […]

Professional athletes endorsing products for financial gain is so common place these days that we hardly ever bat an eye at it. And whether it’s maned NFL players hawking anti-dandruff shampoo, NBA players pushing video game delivery services, or a world-famous Frenchman little-known to most Americans selling us razors and shaving cream, it’s generally accepted that […]

Traditionally a Roman Catholic holiday, modern capitalism has exploited it and turned it into a yearly economic stimulus for greeting card companies, jewelers and the floral industry… and possibly turned […]
