By some miraculous turn of events a few CubicleGMers ended up watching the Superbowl from the French Quarter (ya know, in New Orleans). To give shout-outs where shout-outs are due, it all started when a good friend of the Cubicles, we call him E, and his significant other, we call her V, moved down there [...]
My 1995 – 1996 NBA Squad Game
One of the motivations to create CubicleGM was the frequency of sports related emails that arrived and left my inbox on a weekly basis. Everything from the ‘Have you seen this story yet?’ to ‘How many of the ’96 Seattle Mariners can you name?’. The first still come through the inbox, while the second are [...]
Were the Pats Just Tooling Up for 2010 or Beyond?
Just like that, a mere minutes into yesterday’s playoff game, an uninspired Pats season unofficially came to an end. Obviously the official end came once the clock struck 0:00 of the fourth quarter, but at no point this season did the Pats show they could handle adversity, that they could come back from a deficit, [...]
Oh Baseball How I’ve Missed You. You Too Red Sox
[Ring Ring, Ring Ring] Baseball: Hello Gideon: I’ve had some second thoughts, and realized I would like to write about you again, if that’s ok? Baseball: Well, I guess so. I have just finished up three of the most trade and signing packed days of the year. I’m sure you can find something in there. [...]
BCS Is So Boring
Lets get a few things out of the way: 1. I finally found my CubicleGM password after losing it for two weeks. Actually thats not true, just the rumor being spread across the Internets. I have spent my non-working hours a.) Journeying through The Wire for the second time - its far better the second [...]
The Final Word on Billy Belichick
Editor’s Note: I continue my offseason goal of rekindling my proverbial flame with Major League Baseball. With awards week upon us, I am fairly to hardly interested in the winners, mostly because none of the balloting should be very close. I was happy to see Zack Greinke win the Cy Young (that’s the one they [...]
Disenchanted with MLB? Yeah I’m A Lost Man, too
This post has been brewing for a while now, but I must admit I was just not that excited or motivated to write it. Not excited as I have been a long time baseball fanboy. Not motivated as I am not usually the curmudgeon type. I’d rather focus my energy elsewhere. But alas due to [...]
Why Isn’t Cliff Lee Starting Tonight
While I was not entirely enthused about the World Series prior to Game 1, I have been pleasantly surprised early on with a fairly entertaining series. Game 1 provided a superb pitching matchup between Cliff Lee and CC Sabathia. Game 2 also provided a great pitcher’s duel, with Pedro and AJ Burnett going at it. [...]
What Happened to When CubicleGM Covered Baseball Back When Baseball Was Fun!?
For those dedicated CubicleGM readers out there, once upon a time, circa 3 or 4 months ago CubicleGM regularly used to write articles, I’d dare even say interested articles, about baseball. Weird, huh? You remember those good old days? What happened to those good old days? Well, brothers Cloud joined the fray and Jacob Nitz [...]

Your boss too focused on a non-issue? Boom – Iverson talking about practice. Some fool in the cubicle next to you dreaming [...]
