Jerks of the Week: Aug. 15, 2022 Jerk of the Week: Hot Tub Adventures: The Ocean, the Tricycle and Girls I’ve written about the weirdos in my LA Fitness hot tub on numerous occasions, but that’s all meaningless if you subscribe to the Eric Matthews mantra: “If you don’t have a picture, then you don’t…

Jerks of the Week: Aug. 8, 2022 Jerk of the Week: Assassins, Astrology and Cheese Dogs I can’t believe this summer is almost over. It seemed like the 2022 NFL Draft was just yesterday. The end of that weekend sparks the commencement of summer for me, yet these past three months have flown by so…

Jerks of the Week: Aug. 1, 2022 Jerk of the Week: 2022 Pandemic Preview: Monkeypox I’ve been running this Web site for nearly 23 years. And in those 23 years, I’ve compiled so many NFL season previews. I began doing those in 2002, so counting this year’s season previews, that would be 21 years’ worth….

Jerks of the Week: July 25, 2022 Jerk of the Week: The Continued Death of Neshaminy Mall We’re in trouble.

Jerks of the Week: July 4, 2022 Jerk of the Week: Mila’s Pizzeria The economic downturn has been terrible for everyone. Gas prices are at an all-time high. Inflation is through the roof. People are priced out of the housing market. And yet, my wife and I have it worse than everyone. That’s because our…

Jerks of the Week: June 20, 2022 Jerk of the Week: Pictures of the Neighborhood I’ve recently written that I’ve barely left the house since my son was born. That’s not entirely true. I leave the house nearly every sunny day to take the baby for a walk. I must delve into fatherhood in a…

Jerks of the Week: June 13, 2022 Jerk of the Week: The Russian Brute and the Two-Year Absence Man My favorite thing has become when pro-mask people try to argue their position with anti-mask people, citing that surgeons wear masks when operating on someone.

Jerks of the Week: June 6, 2022 Jerk of the Week: Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee Nights have changed for me as a father. In fact, I had to stop typing after that previous sentence because I fed my 5-month-old son, Conrad. It was 2:40 a.m. when I typed my initial sentence, and it is now…
