Order is Restored

Long list, short explanations:

Disco Charlie brought something to my attention today, there is a subtle art of carefree snarkery that is generally expected from day to day. And honestly, he could not be more right. There's been a lot of serious discussion lately and, let's be frank, it just doesn't fit. So here goes.

- When Joey doesn't talk major smack before a game we get nervous. There's a certain continuity and stability to when the mouth of Bakersfield lets loose. All this composed, respectable, media friendly linebacker business just doesn't jive. We've got a major event coming up and we depend on our favorite inflamatory "Capn'in'him" brotha to set the tone. Set it off, 55!

- Exactly 6 people watched the State of the Union last on Tuesday night. They were: Laura Bush, Barbara Bush, Barbara Bush (the hot grand daughter), Al Gore, Dick Cheney, and Abe Vigota (yeah, we were surprised to hear that he's still alive too!)

- Exactly two people cared that the State of the Union was given last night. Laura Bush (she couldn't get out of it) and Mark Bellhorn (he got stoned and forgot that it was Tuesday.)

- Did we mention Tedy Bruschi had a stroke?

- Did we mention Jerome Bettis was from Detroit?

- Did we mention Detroit is kinda ghetto?

- Ooh ooh, we almost forgot, IT'S WAY TO FREAKIN COLD IN BOSTON!

- But seriously, there are a lot of really important things going on. The Israeli-Palestinian peace process is advancing at an impressive rate, the United States Congress has passed record setting budget reform, a controversial partial birth abortion law was overturned in appeals court, and researchers have said that bird flu ha--- DUDE, DID WE MENTION THE SUPERBOWL IS ONLY 3 DAYS AWAY!!!!!!
