In a new survey, 85% of parents said they would be THRILLED to have their children move back home with them. I immediately knew my mom would be part of the 85% and then some. So I called her, and her answer was only half true. To confirm I called my brother Nick to weigh in.

If you're and Eagles fan and watched the horrendous Eagles/Cardinals game, you probably felt nothing but frustration and anger. You probably also saw the fan Eagles fan venting her anger at just the right time. The cameras locked onto her, and the whole world said, "Now that's an Eagles Fan!"

I went from telling stories about my drinking days to.... this.

Your first kiss. It's something you never forget. The movies tell you its going to be magical, something you can cherish forever. Unless of course, your name is Crockett. Then of course, it was a total disaster.
Let's face it. Odds of me ever becoming a great singer were slim to none. But I think my parents are to blame for me never going any further than 8th grade! Hear the story, and checkout the video of me "singing" in fourth grade.
In the late 90's early 2000's, The big gag Christmas gift was Big Mouth Billy Bass.

For Christmas I bought my parents a selfie stick. They loved it so much, they brought it with them from South Carolina to my brothers house in New Jersey. This ended up with a phone call to 911 and a great picture to go with it. Maybe my dad should've read the directions before use.
Let me take you back to my Kindergarten birthday. I was really into pro wrestling, collected wrestling toys, and had a best friend named JT who knew all this. Needless to say, he thought he nailed the best birthday gift of all time. Well, I killed that pretty quick. But karma avenged him over the Christmas Break.
We have all heard that classic analogy. We are born crawling, learn to walk, then back to crawling as we get old. Essentially we reverse age as we get older. My parents came and spent the weekend, and it was like hosting toddlers!
Online shopping. They way of the future. You can shop without ever leaving the house. How great. But then we have the even better option of ordering online, then picking up in store. Skip the lines, free shipping, it really is the best. Until you deal with Wal Mart's online pick up policy.

A new survey found that the between the ages of 6-10 were the best years for people to have their best Christmas's. I didn't have to think long about this one, and I think I have to agree with the general population on this one, but here's why! Give it a listen.

Usually the Crock File segments are stories I have found on the internet involving weird creatures and beings, but Monday night, something truly strange happened to me... or should I say my boss! Did something take over his body?
It's the age old urban legend. A cop cannot pull you over at night if he doesn't have some sort of light on. My entire life I have heard the rumor, "It's entrapment. If they don't have their lights on, they can't legally pull you over!" Is it true? I look into the case!
I never claimed to be a tough guy. In fact, I never will. But there is one "trait" about me that will always stop me from being a tough guy! Please d ne a favor, if I'm bleeding, don't tell me!

A new survey discovered 61% of parents say they love their children equally. However; it is often discussed in our family, how I am the favorite of the three boys. So I figured I would go directly to the source... my parents!

Breakfast. At some point, we stop eating sugary cereal and we move onto brands and fibers. I didn't think this day would ever come, but a recent stop by Wegmans has turned my whole world upside down!
As a kid, going to the grocery store meant one thing. Try and beg my mom for quarters from the moment we got there till the moment we left so that I could make a stop by the beloved quarter machines by the exit. But when she refused to hand over that money, I had a strategy.... that never worked.
I know. I know. Crockett, what's this one about? Well like the title says. It's about hot nuts. Trust me, it will make more sense when you listen!
Nothing worse than a know it all that obviously doesn't know anything, and is lying to everyone. Not only did I encounter such a person, but then they managed to make themselves look like a bigger idiot on top of it!

A new study found that kids that go outside and play sports are happier and less depressed. WELL WHO DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING!? Growing up, we weren't allowed in the house!
Last weekend, I couldn't believe my ears. My buddies wife told me she thinks Pop Tarts are disgusting! I told her she was WAY off and she would have no support on this one. That was until Gabriella from Dallas called to her defense!
You all know me as Crockett, but to two children in Baltimore, they know me as the synister Jimmy Smith, Toy Stealer. Do you have misbehaved children? Maybe call Jimmy Smith for help!
An American tradition or should I say birthright! I know 17% is a low number, but I still can't believe there are people in the good ole USA that have never had ice cream from the ice cream truck!
I JUST finished talking about how I love going to the movies again, and wouldn't you know it.... it comes back to bite me in the butt! I wanted to love the movie I watching, but the people in the theater kept that from happening!

The story continues on my journey of making myself look and sound like a total idiot to the police. And believe it or not, this story still has two more parts!

Growing up, Goosebumps were all the rage. Everyone had to have them. It was a social status to elementary school kids everywhere. If you had the newest Goosebumps book, you were the center of attention. Naturally, I wanted in on the fad, problem was, I couldn't read. Which makes things tricky.

Growing up, people had more pride. They had pride not only in themselves, but what they looked like, their appearance. My mother was very big on social appearances growing up.

I'll admit it. I wasn't the coolest kid growing up. Heck, I'm still not cool, but back in Junior High, I was bottom of the barrel. And I really don't have anyone to blame but myself.

After my brother hung up the phone from telling us about the talking fish tank, he sent me a text asking me if I remembered the three men staring at us one night. I have no recollection of this, so as a bonus, my brother called back!
Two years ago, my father called into the show to tells us all about a fish tank, that he SWORE talked to us while we were sleeping. My brother recently told me, "Dad's not crazy. That fish tank talked." Naturally, we had to get my brother on the line to hear his version!

Today we lost the legendary radio host Rush Limbaugh at the age of 70, after his long battle with cancer, and as a radio host, I felt the need to give him a send off.
The debut episode of Rants and Reviews. I figured why not start off with a review of a movie that I just watched for the first time, The Departed. Directed by Martin Scorsese, and has heavyweights like Leo, Damon, Wahlberg and Jack Nicholson. This 2006 box office is adored by millions, but I honestly don't think it's as great as everyone says.
