As a means of transportation, the bobsled has been around forever. It wasn't until the late 1800s that racing was established thanks to the Swiss adding a steering mechanism to a toboggan.

We all know I am a Jimmie Johnson fan, but this would be a  really a great story no matter what driver's team it was about. In fact, while I believe they are really great and train hard, I think most could argue that some other crews like that of Matt Kenseth may indeed be the standard bearers in NASCAR.

A lot of people complain about the NFL Pro Bowl, it's not really a competitive game, no one really tries to hard because they don;t want to get hurt, the players from the Superbowl aren't there, etc.  I understand all that but for whatever reason I as well as a great many of people still sit down and watch it every year. This year, it's a little different and I have to give the NFL props for tryin

I am so excited to get down to Daytona for the first race of the new NASCAR season! It's almost my unofficial EARLY welcome to spring. This is about the time of year I start checking out the websites for the changes in cars and drivers for the year, try to get up to speed on all the changes that always take place. What I found today though is not a change I expected.

I'm starting a new feature here on WGNA.com.  I want to begin featuring trends and inventions that only a millennial - a person born between 1982-2004, would truly understand and love.  Or not.  I'll let you guys decide.

When you hear about a story like this, you often feel bad for the guy who maybe tripped, or even drunkenly stumbled, over a railing to fall into the crowd below. In this case, after watching the video you just think, "You stupid moron!"

Several ski slopes and resorts opened this weekend throughout the Albany-Adirondack area.

A co-worker shared this video with me of the NASCAR Truck Race at Talladega this weekend. It is absolutely hysterical and I must say I am just a bit jealous that our American NASCAR announcers don't get quite as excited as these guys do.

It's funny,  I know I have already thought of this myself and I'm sure most of us here in the Albany area have. Perhaps some would think it is just a joke or a cute story but to be honest I think there may very well be relevancy to it. I think the McKownille Fire Department may just be on to something.

Last week I was talking to one of the "youngins" here at the radio ranch and he had never heard of Steve Martin's song, "King Tut". After telling him all about it and singing it for him I got the idea to do "Throwback Thursday" and get a little nostalgic with some of my favorite memories growing up. Today I asked Jeff Levack which direction I should go with my throwba
