John Gonzalez has written for the Inquirer, Boston magazine, Village Voice Media, Men's Journal and a host of other outlets he either can't remember or chooses to forget. He also ran for U.S. Congress once (and still won't shut up about it). After scribbling many words for print publications, he's now committed full-time to digital endeavors. Turns out the Internet isn't a fad after all. Tell your friends.

Quarterback Donovan McNabb has done his bit to keep the NFL lockout from getting boring. He´s always good for a laugh.

NFL lockout is good theater
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Posted 07/05/2011
Gonzo: All the people clamoring to immediately end the NFL lockout either haven't paid attention, or they are the sworn enemies of good quality entertainment. The "No Fun League" has been just the opposite during the work stoppage.

Cycling should embrace its doping legacy
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Posted 07/03/2011
Gonzo: It is perhaps the biggest part of cycling - the neverending game between the testers and the dopers. The testers develop better tests and the dopers take less-detectable dope and the cycling cycle continues.

Will Rollins return next year? - 06/28/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: The slew of Phillies fans who showed up to see Jimmy Rollins yesterday ostensibly like watching him play. The question is how much longer they'll be able to.

Boston fans have become obnoxious - 06/27/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: If there's a reason to end interleague play, this is it. The next few days figure to test our collective patience and sanity. Brace yourself: Boston fans are coming to Philadelphia along with the Red Sox.

Riggleman strikes a blow for freedom - 06/26/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: Until recently, Jim Riggleman was merely the manager of the Washington Nationals. Now, he's so much more - he's a national inspiration who stood up for himself and refused to be pushed around any longer.

Sixers are at a critical juncture - 06/23/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: The Sixers are at a critical juncture in the organization's history. What happens (or doesn't happen) between now and whenever the next season begins might very well determine the future of the franchise for many years to come.
Barbs during the lockout - 06/21/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
The following is an excerpt from Ask Gonzo, a weekly chat on Philly.com with columnist John Gonzalez There's nothing like a good old-fashioned beef, even if methods employed aren't exactly traditional. It would be better if the ongoing argument between LeSean McCoy and the New York Giants unfolded in person or on the field, but that will happen soon enough. In the interim, a public Twitter spat - which has since spilled over into the mainstream media - will do just fine.

Potential 76ers buyer should emulate Cuban - 06/20/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: Joshua Harris, who is trying to buy the 76ers, can learn a lot from Mark Cuban. Ten years ago - even five years ago - the notion that Cuban could be the model for a prospective NBA owner would have seemed preposterous.

LeBron cements status as antihero - 06/16/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: With ill-advised tweets and fake coughs, LeBron James took the final steps to becoming a permanent antihero. There's no going back now. Those who continue to root for him are polemicists and little more.

Hating on Heat good for NBA - 06/13/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: The Miami Heat are the best thing to happen to the NBA since Michael Jordan won his final championship. They've become a giant target for fans and media members to sling sharpened darts at for the sheer enjoyment of it.

What does billionaire see in Sixers? - 06/12/2011
By John Gonzalez, Inquirer Columnist
Gonzo: This is an ego buy. It has to be. There's no other explanation. A billionaire named Joshua Harris is reportedly leading a group that's close to purchasing your 76ers. Which raises a simple question: Um . . . why?
