The fragile ego that is
Oct 31 2006
Well, I’m back. After a nearly two week hiatus, spent grieving for my poor A’s, I figured I’d better update again in order to keep my fans at bay. If anyone gets out of line though, you’ll have to deal with Terry Tate, office linebacker.
I’ve moved on from that tragedy that was the ALCS, on to more tragic areas. Those areas are namely my 4 fantasy football leagues. It’s a sad state of affairs in my football world. The Raiders stink on ice, my fantasy teams all might as well be renamed NFL underachievers, and to top it all off Notre Dame has a snowball’s chance in hell of playing for the National Championship in college.
Hey, at least the NBA season is right around the corner, though. So I have another year of Kings basketball to look forward too. This year should be an exciting one. A new coach, who apparently likes to party, judging from his recent DUI arrest. Funny, I always pegged Mike Bibby to be the next winner of those sweepstakes. Ron Artest, in uniform for an entire year, and apparently leaving his bad-boy antics in Indiana. Now if only we could find a sucker to take Kenny “I’m not as good as I think I am” Thomas off our hands, we might be a force in the Western Conference. But I digress…..
Another tragedy is that Stephen Hawking and his wife are getting a divorce after 11 years of marriage. Probably a little overdue, considering that a few months back the wife was reportedly arrested for endangerment after leaving Hawking out in the back yard during an extremely hot day, giving him deep sunburns and dehydration. This time there has also been talks about both sides engaging in extra-marital affairs. There’s a vicious joke hidden in there somewhere… find it.
And finally, after 3+ years of staying the course, George Bush has decided that the ‘course’ must change in order for us to win the war in Iraq. Hmmm, what tipped him off on that? Mounting casualties all around? Increasing insurgent attacks? The increasing trouble the Iraqi government seems to be having in taking control of the situation? Now I’m no rocket scientist but it would seem to me that if we should probably have a plan better than:
Invade country
Something
Declare victory
That way we might succeed at something more than tossing an unstable country into civil war. Good job Georgie, way to be pro-active. Maybe you should have had Terry Tate in the wings as a contingency plan.
~Enjoy
