Pre-Thanksgiving Radio-Spot on Psycho Sports Episode 109

On Wednesday afternoon, just before the Thanksgiving holiday I had the pleasure of being a guest on 990WBOB's Psycho Sports show out of Providence, Rhode Island.

They asked me about Jeff "Left-Hook" Lacy and I gotta admit I didn't even know he had a fight coming up this weekend (Lacy won last night by 3rd TKO) and I kinda babbled my way through it. But I thought what I said about Pacquiao-Mayweather was pretty decent.

Another weigh-in video I made this summer - iMovie

A Webhead Entertainment Boss's Blog --Recap

In July Fifty-Cent came to Hartford CT. Here's the iMovie weigh-in video I shot for www.BillyCBoxing.com  This takes a lot longer to put together than you might think. Getting all the labels in with their names, cities and weights is kind of painstaking. But it is fun. I really enjoy working with the program.

My First iMovie Slideshow: Cape Portals

A Webhead Entertainment Boss's Blog --Recap

This was originally a photo-essay a friend of my Grandfather's named Bus DuPaul made for my Grandfather, Henry Madden a long time ago. About a year or so ago I decided to make it into an iMovie video slideshow. I found some period music and put it together and i think it came out ok.

Hi There!! Long time no post, bitch!! New video is up!

Webhead Entertainment Boss's Blog -- 11/11/13

Wow, I haven't posted a damn thing on here in one long-ass time. Well, gotta work on changing that.
Here's the latest video editing/voiceover/iMovie video i've made. It's four-minutes and 3 seconds and overall I like how it came out but i need to practice my voice-overs more, make them smoother, and go with a better final recording. This one has a few hiccups. But still enjoying learning new stuff and practicing the things I've learned with the program. Enjoy and feel free to post your comments.

College Boxing Tourney from the Connecticut Woods

2013 National Collegiate Boxing Championships

I had the pleasure of covering the NCBA College Boxing Championships from the Fox Theater at Foxwoods this past Thursday through Saturday. It was an exciting Tourney that showcased some seriously well-conditioned athletes from private universities and military academies all over the USA. It was especially enjoyable for me as I had watched just about all of coverage of the Olympic tourney from London this past summer and enjoyed that. It's very different than professional prize-fighting but if you like the Sweet Science and the many style variations that many different fighters display, i really can't see how you wouldn't dig amateur tourney boxing. 

So without further adieu here are links to my coverage from ringside:

Ron Pierpaoli Lives!!

A year ago yesterday my father died of prostate cancer. My relationship with my dad was the most complicated and difficult relationship of my life; some of it was my fault and some of it was his, but the reality was that we barely spoke or saw each other for the last fifteen years of his life up until the final weeks when he was dying in hospital. At his wake and funeral it was very clear that he had aspects of his life I knew nothing about; he had been a basketball coach for years, a side of him I never saw or knew much about. In death it became obvious that we were both bigger than the things we always fought about and I was able to put a lot of hurt aside to write a eulogy for him. I am a writer, something he was often ambivalent about, and I have spent years dealing with my own issues of depression and repressed anger that keep me from writing as often as I’d like to or should. But the night before his funeral I found myself able to put any negative feelings and hurts aside to write about him in a way that I hoped would bring people together rather than drive them apart. The following is the eulogy I wrote for him and one of the few things I wrote in the past year that I actually feel good about. It took his death to prove to myself that I really did love him a lot more than I could admit during all those years I was mad at him. Unlike my younger siblings, as the firstborn & oldest, I found I had a lot of really vivid and positive memories from my childhood of him, things that really helped shape me into who I am today. He was a very spiritual guy and he certainly inspired a sense of spirituality and the eternal in me. In many ways I’ve realized that he will never really be gone from me as there is so much of him I still carry with me. I love you, Dad and I still miss you.

Fathers loom large over the lives of sons and daughters. Whether present or absent, the role and position of father in any family is that of primacy; in numerology the father is represented by 1. Paternal energy is synonymous with maleness and the life-giving radiance and energy of the sun.
Ron Pierpaoli loomed large as a father. He had two families, two sets of children and he straddled the

Anti-Intellectual & Anti-Rational Right Winger gets roughed up

Chris Matthews beats up on one of the numerous and clueless right wing radio hosts who knows his talking points but none of the facts or history behind them. Last night Matthews had guests on reacting to Dubya's asinine allusions to Nazi appeasement on the floor of the Knesset yesterday and things got heated, and especially revealing, as Matthews held his guest's nose to the mess he made on Hardball's rug. Kevin James of KRLA, this right wing radio host that works in the LA market has gotta be sharp and ready with his smears in that liberal left coast region, but this clip proves he might be very good at doing his duty for the White House in smearing Barack Obama but the guy's got no sense of history. What may be even more comical is when he uses the movie "Pathway to 9/11" as supporting evidence that the Clinton Administration did too little to catch Osama bin Laden. And he uses it to deflect Air America Radio's Mark Green's reference to reading Richard Clarke's book Against All Enemies. Ah, do you get the feeling Kevin's not a big reader? Matthews, in shock at his guest's lack of any sort of knowledge basis, makes an appropriate association in remebering White House Press Secretary Dana Perino's admission that she didn't know the difference between the Bay of Pigs and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Perhaps the most striking element of this video for me is that it really makes me wonder how many of these mad-dog right wingers with so much venom to spew actually have very little rational or factual basis for their arguments, smears and talking points. Would Rumsfeld, or Dubya himself, have been able to stand up to persistent questioning on what exactly they are alluding to when they raise the Nazi comparisons and analogies? Do they even know? These are folks that saw FDR and his New Deal as a great satan; comparing extremist Islam to Nazis belies a profound misunderstanding of both subjects. Plus, I have a feeling authoritarian types like most in this administration would get increasingly angry and increasingly awkward in trying to explain themselves. Sadly, our media simply doesn't question them. Instead we have the media asking whether Bush was actually referring to Obama with the smear? Huh? Come on. Bush is the most divisive, venomous politician who has ever disgraced our capitol, of course it was about Obama, and Carter and Pelosi and to whomever else sees the world and its inhabitants as more nuanced and more similar in our desires for coexistence than the shitheel from Crawford, Texas can comprehend. We've had enough of these liars and distorters. They don't know what they are talking about. They are loud and forceful and wrap themselves in false-patriotism to win arguments but they have very little knowledge or factual basis for so many of their arguments. These are a lot of the same folks who are thumping the drums for war with Iran right now. And, frankly, I'm not convinced many of them could even find Iran on a map of the world. But I guess that's what we have those expensive GPS satelites for, our bombs can probably find Iran, and that's enough for so many of them.
Enjoy the clip...
