I'm sure many Ute fans hold a special place in their hearts for 2004 and 2008 because of how much was on the line. I can't deny those were exceptional and enjoyable games because of how thoroughly dominant Utah was. I am the type of fan who enjoys Utah thumping the hell out of BYU over winning in the closing seconds. Mostly because I can relax a bit and soak in the entire experience. That's something...

From the FanPosts -Joel For people of my generation, November 22 holds a special significance. We can all remember where we were and what we were doing at a certain moment on the very tragic 1963 iteration of that date. It may turn out that this date may assume a similar significance for Chiefs fans. If it turns out that Scott Pioli and Todd Haley can, in fact, turn this franchise around, it's quite...

When I was growing up, canned cranberry jelly was a part of our menu every Thanksgiving . With it's rich color, cylindrical shape, and smooth coolness, it was one of my favorite parts of the meal. I have since learned to love a more sophisticated homemade fresh cranberry sauce , but the canned cranberry holds a special place in my heart. It's ideal for making leftover sandwiches. How do you feel about...

Japanese retailer Amiami includes a note on its listing for the Xbox 360 version of No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise that suggests that because it is based on the North American version of the Wii original, it is likely to carry the CERO Z rating (think an ESRB M rating, but harsher) when it is released in February.
