To warm everyone's heart's for Christmas, I'll post this picture...
(It'll at least buy some time until I can think of something to post.)

Ho ho ho
Sorry for the lack of posting lately. Too busy flying back and forth to meet with my agent on why my scenes in the T-Mobile "Sidekick" commercials were replaced with Burt Reynolds.
There isn't going to be much of a point to the following. Go on any other section of the Internet and I'm sure you can find someone sounding off on the following topics: Steroids, red vs. blue, gay marriage, Notre Dame, Scott Peterson, Iraq, etc.
What is interesting to me is that in covering high school sport championships recently, amazingly the soccer championship game had better fans than football.
Yes, the pigskin contingent had more fannies in the seats but the soccer partisans were more vocal and a lot younger, ie actual students.
It was impressive to see students bringing drums, cymbals and horns to create at least a little atmosphere at the game. The best thing I heard all game at a Connecticut state final was a pep band playing a few bars to the theme to "Coach." (Amazingly, Hayden Fox was able to coach a winning D-1 program with two assistants, Luther and Dauber and high school's have NFL sized staffs, who I'm sure are all crack football minds...well at least they think so and have the embroidered polo shirt to prove it.) [It never ceases to amaze me that Dauber is the voice of Patrick Star.]
Here's another novice observation. The level of play of high school soccer compared to football is much higher. Granted, it's much more time consuming and complicated to coach football. Put it this way, a high school soccer game looks a lot more like a professional/Olympic style game than an average high school football game in comparison to the NFL or even the CFL, sans rouges.
Ok, I'm an inch away from typing something about the Hamilton Tiger Cats.
That means its time to wrap it up.
Adios.
Butcher shopped
Please note the following is being keyed in my Bleeding Gums Cardillo.
Ok. Admittedly I don't use dental floss. Never have, never will. Sue me.
Still, going to the dentist I don't expect to walk out with the ol' claret flowing out of multiple gashes in my mouth.
This dental hygeinist ought to have her certificate revoked! Not for her sloppy work, but for work that was obviously vindictive. Many times she told me about flossing. Plus she had to see the pain on my face. Fuck beans, I think I saw an iron maiden or some other dungeon torture crap.
I brush and don't have any cavities. Grrr.
Other crap stuck in my craw
I. College football -- whether it's Tyrone Willingham getting fired or the stupid BCS crap. Enough already. My biggest gripe is how much the game is connected to pollsters. I'm sort of a member of the media and just found out I have to vote in a high school basketball poll. (Like I can see every team play?) Well, pollsters don't care and just vote. Does Florida State have a varsity this season...Top 10....Texas...Top 10...etc. Word of advice, don't let sportswriters decide things. Just look at what a rocket surgeon I am.
II. The show "Desperate Housewives" -- there is plenty of free porn already on the Internet. What a waste of the airwaves.
III. For whatever reason, I get a kick out of a fake guy in "Fifa 2005" with the name Kim Jaggy.
IV. Stupid story of the day -- Flicking through the numerous HBO channels the other night and actually stop on the movie "Love Actually" hoping to get lucky with the alleged scenes featuring Keira Knightley. Yeah well, what was actually on the tube was a clip of the movie "Titanic". Sad.
Ok. Gotta go catch up with Action Man. Adios.
