Local model, Bo Pratt

When citizens of Mestew Nation impress us, we love to give out some positive PR. Today, I’m happy to share our man, Bo Pratt, is in the latest Pepsi campaign. He’s making his way up the ladder, starting with some collegiate ads a while back, to the cover of the MTA Sport version of the “Perfect Pushup” and now going international with Pepsi. Look for him at around the :28 second mark. He’s the dude in the bottom, right corner – then moves to the middle, right square a second …

With all the NFL playoff buzz, we have been inundated with questions of “who is the best QB of all time.” Is it Favre? Manning? Brady? Perhaps a throwback like Unitas or Tarkenton? How about Elway, Marino, or Montana? Enough is enough! If you wanted to kn ow, you should have just asked me from the beginning. Here is how I see it…
First off, let me explain that I will not rank anyone that didn’t play during my lifetimeof memory. I didn’t see them play (or was too young to remember), …

It’s a Dog Tweets Dog World

So who out there is following Mestew on Twitter? If you’re not, you should be! And if Mestew had a dog, you could potentially follow that bitch on Twitter too. That’s right, Mattel has invented a great device for dogs to wear that sends out Tweets when the dog barks or moves.

More and more players continue to turn it down, while the NFL tries to spin the event into comparable money making All-star venues of other professional sports.

Local artist, Lukas Pederson

I had the pleasure of meeting Lukas last summer in the Kalamazoo Wiffle League. While talking after games one evening, he had mentioned that he played some local guitar gigs. One of which was a reoccurring session Wednesday nights at University Roadhouse. So, being the supportive friend that I am, I ventured over to give him a listen. Now Lukas is a star on the Wiffle ball field, but that’s nothing compared to his sound on the stage. He’s easily the best solo act I can remember hearing. He mixes in requests …
