Boiled Sports: R.I.P. Don La Fontaine

In all seriousness, this is a big loss to sports and entertainment alike.

Perfect Crispness Every Time.

BS about BS

"I like to tell people going to Hammer & Rails is a lot like going to Class of '50 lecture hall. You're going to learn a lot, it's full of other people, and your teacher is very knowledgeable. Boiled Sports to me, though, is like going to Harry's Chocolate Shop. It's small, kind of dark and cramped, people are cracking wise, Boilerdowd and J are pouring out the tough spirits, and the vague smell of beer and popcorn lingers with you."

"My favorite Purdue Sports site. Where do I begin? Mayhaps it's the witty repartee, mayhaps it's the sexy writers, mayhaps it's my rack prominently displayed (or modeling, whatevs) on their website. One thing's for sure: I have a crush...and it's been boiled." -More Than Sweet Potatoes

"If you like your Boilermaker news and updates served warm with sarcasm with a hint of commentary, Boiled Sports is a must." -Purdue Basketball Blog

"You guys have that certain flavor that makes it so much better. Crap, that sounded really, really [like something a tidy man might say to another tidy man]."

-T-Mill, Hammer and Rails

"Return to your day job kicking puppies and robbing toddlers of their popsicles."

-A brave anonymous hero

"I give it (Boiled Sports) 36 days."

-R. Wynn, 11/6/06

"The epitome of unpleasant."

-Irishroundtable.com

"...they're pessimistic as hell."

"I don't know why I didn't start reading Boiled Sports long ago but I should have."

-The Nittany Line

"Well-written, high expectations, uncompromising written beatdowns of Joe Tiller and company only to lighten the mood with the occasional posts of hotties."

-Lake The Posts

"By the way, if you're not reading Boiled Sports, what's stopping you?"
