Nov 28, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Buy a copy of Titans of the South: Photographs and History of the Tennessee Titans right here. Look, it’s hard out on those streets for Titans fans these days. if you’re anything like me when things are as bleak as they are right now, you tend to find yourself going down wormholes of when the Titans used to be great. Yes, there were actual seasons when the Titans were great.
A List of Shout-Outs From Our Titans-Bears Weekend in Chicago

Sep 10, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

What a weekend. Until it wasn’t, of course. You could argue that aside from the final two quarters, this weekend was perfect. At very least, people are asking. And while I know everyone wants to move on from this weekend, I don’t. Not yet. Because I have to shout some people out from what was a fun weekend. Again, until it wasn’t. Let’s shout some folks out… in no particular order, of course. There are some @titans fans here.
Pitbull Bought The Naming Rights To FIU’s Football Stadium, But What Artists Should Buy Naming Rights To SEC Stadiums?

Aug 7, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Pitbull bought the naming rights to FIU’s football stadium for $1.2 million per year for the next 5 years. That’s right, the FIU Panthers will be playing their home games in Pitbull Stadium. So we started wondering what artists would be good fits to buy the naming rights of SEC stadiums? Here’s what we came up with…Look, this partnership goes without saying. They’re both arguably the greatest of all-time. And both of their fans are annoying and everywhere.
A Farewell To DeMar DeRozan, The Greatest Chicago Bull of All Time

Jul 8, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Dear DeMar DeRozan,Where do we even begin? It’s been a few days since the sign and trade went down and I still find myself grasping at straws to try and find the words to encapsulate arguably the greatest era of Chicago Bulls basketball ever. And it’s all because of the man who wore #11. Who can possibly forget your cool 27.9 points per game in the 2021-2022 season? Iconic. There’s no chance anyone has ever even come close to that. I don’t even have to look it up.
This Yankees Bobblehead Is Real, And It’s Spectacular

The George Costanza bobblehead for the Yankees/Red Sox game 🔥(📷: @VI17AIN) pic.twitter.com/WJr6AQxQz1— DraftKings (@DraftKings) July 5, 2024The Yankees lost their 14th game out of the last 18 last night, losing to the Red Sox in 10 innings, 5-3, but somehow they still brought home a dub. One of the greatest MLB franchises ever just dropped a bobblehead honoring one of the greatest sitcoms ever, by honoring one of their greatest employees. Not Jeter. Not Gehrig.
Nathan's Made The Right Call Banning Joey Chestnut From The Hot Dog Eating Contest... Yeah, I Said It!

Jul 4, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Nathan’s Famous Hot Dogs, the iconic American institution behind the annual 4th of July hot dog eating contest, recently made the controversial decision to ban Joey Chestnut from this year’s event due to a sponsorship conflict. And you know what? As much as it pains me to see an American icon not compete this year, it was the right call. Grab a hot dog (or sixty-eight) and let me explain. Look, don’t let my stance get things twisted. Chestnut is the Jordan of competitive eating. Wait, scratch that.
I’m Afraid The NHL Let The Nashville Predators Get Hot

Jul 2, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Bad news for the rest of the league. I’m afraid the NHL just let Nashville get as hot as their chicken. Don’t ask me how, but the Preds signed Steven Stamkos, Jonathan Marchessault, and Brady Skjei. If you’re one of those folks who “doesn’t really do hockey” well, let me hit you why this is massive for the Preds. First off, let’s meet the newest Nashville transplants. The only one’s who moved to town for something other than country music. Steven Stamkos: Picture Tom Brady on skates.
Bob Bonilla Is Another Mil Richer Today

Jul 1, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

July 1st. 3 days before America celebrates their independence, we celebrate the Mets’ lack thereof. For many, it’s just another hot, sticky day in the thick of summer. But for Bobby Bonilla, it’s a hot, sticky day in the thick of summer with a cool milly being dropped into his checking account. In 2000, the Mets made a financial decision so gloriously ridiculous that only the Mets could. The Bob Valentine in a disguise of financial decisions.
We Broke Down That Darren Waller Music Video

Jun 4, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

Darren Waller inexplicably tried to launch a music career. Look, to each their own. Unless their own is this bad. Woof. This amount of autotune would give T-Pain a stroke. We’d say don’t quit your day job, Darren, but it appears he might be. Let’s hope not for the sake of his bank account and our already bleeding eardrums. Kelsey, you are now completely justified in walking away from this letterman jacketed dude.
The Titans Schedule Is Perfect, No Notes (But Here Are Some Notes, Anyway)

May 16, 2024 | korkedbats.com | Austin Huff

This is the perfect waiting in the weeds schedule. The Titans go into this season with little to no expectation whatsoever, and frankly, I love it. If they turn out to be good (a la the Texans last year), they will turn a lot of heads and impress people. Especially considering how young they are at every position outside of wide receiver (sorry, but it’s true).
