A Rough Road Trip
When we last left our boys, it was 2025. We ended the year with a big time beatdown of the St. Louis Blues, and before we knew it, it was 2026! The Avs' tear continued! A 12-1-1 record in the month of December! Still holding the best record in the NHL, and that includes staying ahead of the surging Dallas Stars and Minnesota Wild in the Central. It's a new year now, and the month of January is important. It's the last month before any breaks, and I say it like that because for the second straight year, there's no All-Star Game.

NFL Week 18 Recap: Do or Die
Week 18. This is Year Five of the permanent 18-week regular season, and no matter where the final week falls on the calendar, it's always amazing and full of wild and crazy moments. 256 games have played, leaving the final 16 left. As is the case, not all of the 16 games have meaning. Some have importance, some way more than others, some teams are playing for the top draft pick, and then there's the games that are in the middle.

How to End a Calendar Year
Happy New Year, all! And that "all" includes my fellow fans of the Colorado Avalanche! Boy, did we end 2025 on a winning note! We had five games left in the calendar year... and we won them all! First off, we defeated the Minnesota Wild in grand fashion, and that was beautiful, because those Wild were sure excited after the team got Quinn Hughes. And why wouldn't they be? He's a star on the blue line. Of course, they had to realize that they only have the second-best defenseman in the league, because as good as Hughes is, he's no Cale Makar.

Top 10 Lifetime Villainesses of 2025 (Part 2: The Top 5)
2025 was kind of a special year for Lifetime movies. I mentioned in Part 1 that we saw angles that were very new to the Lifetime film scene, but we also saw a good amount of star power as well in thrillers. In thrillers! Lifetime usually saves the big guns for holiday films and true crime retellings, but we saw some interesting names appear for Lifetime this year. Some of them even played villainesses. The casting in some films has given this fan hope for future films, but that's another few stories.

Top 10 Lifetime Villainesses of 2025 (Part 1: #10 - #6)
Five years. It's hard to believe that this is my fifth year compiling this list. I love Lifetime films with a passion and have for about a quarter-century now. Those who read my stories wonder when I start really preparing the list. When do I exactly start the process of elimination in my mind as I watch Lifetime's amazing movies? No, the answer's not January or February. It's usually around Stanley Cup Playoff time--late spring/early summer.

Armageddon (AFC Week 18)
After the NFC's important games get played on Saturday, the American Football Conference will need the first Sunday of 2026 to determine the last pieces of their playoff puzzle. The AFC has been quite captivating during the entire home stretch, with the possible Wild Cards racking up wins during the last few weeks. With all of that, the results have left quite a few things open in the conference heading into the final Sunday of the regular season.

Judgment Day (NFC Week 18)
We made it, folks! The 18th and final week of the 2025 season is upon us. The final week is always interesting and gives us some thrilling moments that sees teams really scratch and claw into playoff spots and division titles. Of course, this is the 16th season of the "all divisional game" final week schedule, as the change was made because too many final week games lacked drama and enthusiasm, as well as a proper playoff storyline. With all division games in the final week, it makes even the least relevant games thrilling, because you want to really beat your division foe. Also, we've seen a number of head-to-head division title games over the years since this format was born.

NFL Week 17 Recap: Not Resolved Yet
When I wrote the description for this recap, I was thinking, "It's amazing. Decades ago, the NFL season ended on the final weekend of the year with the championship." The NFL calendar has adapted, along with the league itself, but the final weekend of the calendar year continues to be pivotal, because that is when the penultimate week of the regular season takes place. Five games already took place in Week 17, and the final 11 games occurred on Sunday and Monday. For perspective, the focus will only be on the playoff relevant games.

NFL Week 17 Christmas Weekend Recap: Out of the Picture
The 17th and penultimate week of the 2025 NFL season kicked off with the second annual Christmas Day doubleheader on Netflix, though the first game was a meaningless battle that saw the already eliminated Dallas Cowboys finish off the already eliminated Washington Commanders, to move one win away from a .500 season. The real game, at least for me, was the NFC North battle between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings, which saw the former needing to fight for their lives.

The Amazing History of Gender-Flipped Versions of "A Christmas Carol"
We are all familiar with the classic story, A Christmas Carol, the novel written by Charles Dickens back in 1843. The central character, of course, was Ebenezer Scrooge, the noted miser whose feelings about Christmas could be summed up in two words and ten characters: Bah Humbug! We know how that story goes; his old deceased partner, Jacob Marley, visits him and warns Scrooge that he'll be visited by three spirits, all with the same goal: to teach him the error of his ways. In true cookie cutter fashion, it works, and Scrooge does change for the better.

Reviewing "Jingle All the Way," the Sequel, and My Ideas for a Threequel
Merry Christmas, all!! Among the many reasons why so many (myself included) love Christmas is the movies and holiday related shows. Ever since movies have been around, we have seen holiday related films hit theaters, and they've evolved so much since then. We all have our favorites. We all have the long-winded debate about a certain film being a Christmas movie. I have my favorites as far as holiday films, and one of them is definitely Jingle All the Way.

A Green and Gold Christmas (NFC Week 17)
Similar to the AFC, the National Football Conference could see everything completed before the regular season ends. It's been quite chaotic in the NFC; teams who are usually not in it are suddenly deep in the picture. Scenarios are insane and wild in the NFC, it's been that way in the conference for a long time, and this year is no exception. Out of the seven spots in the NFC, five of them are locked in, leaving two remaining and three divisions up for grabs.
