You know what I think should be illegal? The printing and distribution of telephone books. We got one dropped off at the house yesterday and I put it right in the recycling bin. I'm not sure if you can recycle it, but I don't know of any other uses really. You see I have this thing called the internet on both my phone and my laptop. Maybe tomorrow somebody will drop off a bunch of cassette tapes in my driveway. They would be just as useful as the Yellow Pages.
Man United - Arsenal: If the two teams had instead been named Wigan and West Ham, most people would have stopped watching after 30 minutes. I have a witness that can verify my concern about Park. Nobody on United worries me more than him. He plays out of his mind against Arsenal. Yesterday was no exception. Good for him but I absolutely hate the guy.
The only part of the game yesterday that made me smile was Rooney missing that PK. I was so upset that he was going to get his name on the score sheet after not really doing much. Well he sent the shot from the spot way over the bar. It's as if he is living out that Nike commercial from the World Cup this past summer.
The roof, the roof, the roof wasn't on fire: I could seriously watch footage of the Metrodome caving in for hours. Can you imagine being the guy on the cart that is racing against time to get out of there? That would have been insane.
Does any team benefit more from natural disasters than the NY Giants? A few years ago they got a 9th home game because of Katrina and then last night they got a neutral game because of a collapsing dome situation. The only good part about last night's game is that Tom Coughlin must have been driven near madness with all of the schedule changes.
Favre: A lot of people seem tired of Brett and happy that his streak and, most likely, career are over. I don't get it. There aren't that many story lines in the NFL. There aren't that many characters to follow. Most people couldn't even pick out some of their favorite players without their jerseys on. It is a league of unrecognizable figures. A large percent of most fan's interest in the league is based upon fantasy football match-ups and point spreads.
I know that the whole retiring and not retiring thing got on people's nerves but I think it was pretty awesome to watch one of the game's all time greatest players have a sick season at 40 years old. A player that was always able to bounce back from injuries at an insane age. I mean I felt like crap after playing soccer last weekend. I'm 31. I didn't get sacked by an 300 lbs lineman that can also run faster than anybody you know. I think people underestimate and marginalize what a lot of these guys go through.
Looking at what Jackson did last night I doubt Favre would have done much worse. I mean they came away with exactly 3 points off of 2 early turnovers. It's not just #4 that is having a sub par season, the Vikings suck.
Peace brah
