Onesie here with another edition of Listicles’ weekly sports column, Sporty Saturdays. Since it’s a quiet time for my other gigs like freelance mascot work (most leagues are in their off-seasons right now) and sports writing (most publications are cutting back on freelance sports coverage), I’ve had lots of time lately to catch up on [...]

Onesie here, back with another edition of Listicles’ weekly sports column Sporty Saturdays. I recently realized that although there has been ample year-end list coverage in these pages over the last couple of weeks, the ubiquitous sports-themed “best of 2008″ has been absent.
Though I’m especially busy around this time of year with freelance mascot gigs [...]

Back for another edition of Listicles’ weekly sports column, this is freelance mascot and sports writer Onesie. With last week’s Thanksgiving-themed eating competitions list being a slight overdose of American competitiveness, we head North for a cleansing excursion.
The NHL’s Montreal Canadiens celebrate their 100th year this season, which (I’m guessing) might make them the oldest [...]

Onesie here, freelance mascot and sports writer, with the first installment of Listicles’ weekly sports column, Sporty Saturdays. Normally I’ll give my thoughts on a Top 10 highlight reel covering one or more professional sports.
