THANK GOD, it’s back. My favorite event in golf is back today as the US Open tees off at 9:45. It’ll definitely be a fun one this year, especially since it’s taking place at Pebble Beach (aka Tiger’s playground). The field has me super excited, and the course is expected to be tough as hell.ContinueContinue reading “A Look Back at the Best (and Worst) Moments in US Open History”

Hey all, Marty here. This past week has been a week that most nerds, myself obviously included, have been waiting for since the same time last year. The big video game/technology conference that game makers and companies spend countless hours preparing for, so they can prove to the consumers that they will definitely want toContinueContinue reading “E3 2019: The Good, The Bad, The Nonexistent”

Beyond the Arc by Ben Fiore First and foremost, congratulations to Toronto and the entire country of Canada.

Check that, it might be one of the greatest MOMENTS in Boston SportsContinueContinue reading “David Ortiz is BOSTON”

He tried to return last night, re-triggered the injury, and left game 5 in the 2nd quarter. AsContinueContinue reading “A Message to NBA Fans: They’re Still Humans”

I’M BACK F**KERS. After a few well-deserved weeks off (if I do say so myself) following my collegiate graduation, I’ve returned to the real world. It was fun while it lasted, but it’s time to get back to what I do best: write out my mediocre takes for the Thoughts From The Bench readers. ThisContinueContinue reading “I Sat Down and Watched Premier League Lacrosse”

Beyond the Heart by Ben Fiore   As you may know, today is “National Best Friends Day”.  Usually “holidays” like this are dumb to me.  But this year really got me thinking.  With how much of an epidemic mental illness is nowadays and depression, it never hurts to tell people what they’re worth.  So ifContinueContinue reading “Why We Need To Tell Our Friends That They Are Our Second Family”

So with us being a little over the way through the baseball season and the rest of the MLB FAs off the board in Dallas Keuchel/Craig Kimbrel (finally), it’s time to update the predictions.
