Tampa, FL by way of St. Louis, MO

Nathan DeGraaf graduated fucking years ago with a BA in Creative Writing from the University of South Florida, which he still lives near because college chicks are the best. On weekday evenings, Nate can typically be found at any one of a number of North Tampa bars. On weekends, he typically cannot be found. When not drinking, fishing, watching sports, or having sex, Nathan likes to read, play the harmonica, and show up for work. Throughout the course of his life, he has been arrested six times because, as his father has often said, "the kid is fucking stupid."

Comedy Writing

Lipinski Sucks

<p>There's no doubt about it.  Some songs just grab you by the lapels and drag your lapel-wearing ass into the cold pits of awesomeness where you shake and shiver to the beat as the snakes of mental progress hiss sweet nothings in your ears.</p><p>Jimi Hendrix could make those songs.  </p><p>Pearl Jam can make those songs.</p><p>The Doors made some of them songs.  </p>

The Snippets Toast Tom

<p>Mywoman: Are you gonna wear a suit to the wake?<br />Me: A suit? Hell no. Tom would rather die than make me wear a suit. <br />Mywoman: Honey, he is dead.<br />Me: And he still wouldn't dream of making me wear a suit. He's a great guy like that. </p>

Steroids are So Last Decade

<p>Mark McGwire used steroids and is now coaching St. Louis Cardinal hitters.  Bryan Burwell has a problem with this; he's just not that sure what this is.</p><p>His words are in bold.  Mine are upset with his words in bold.    </p>

Casting the Broad

Hundreds of thousands of sports bloggers complain about the same thing every day.  That's all they do: complain.  They don't offer solutions to the problems.  That (and the extra large jar of ink flavored warming jelly that sits on my nightstand) is what separates me from the pack.  I'm here to help.  Anyone can bitch.  And everyone does.  <p>Anywhodiddleyo, I hate all of the major network

Face Friends in the Gym

<p>A guy I barely know and whose name I cannot remember once told me that he didn't workout because he hated math.  I think that's the best excuse for not working out.</p>

Observations Like Your Mom

<p>Both weekends of NFL playoffs thus far have featured two good games.  And both of them were the last games on the docket.  Which means that if you watched those games, you should have been more sober.  Seriously, you would have enjoyed the games more.  Lush.</p>

It’s Twenty Ten, People

My sound and well developed reasoning why we must refer to this year as Twenty Ten and not Two Thousand Ten, as my girlfriend likes to say.
