Random Thoughts: Ladies & Gentlemen, Please Welcome The Fat Lady
Random Thoughts while wondering whatever happened to Kent Nix:
It is so over for the Chicago Bears. And, it's probably over for Rex Grossman. At least for this season and perhaps in a Bear uniform. The bottom line is, you can add the bears to the slag heap of teams that lost the Big Bowl and then fell off the cliff like Wyle E. Coyote. All I know is, when you look across the line of scrimmage and see Todd Freakin' Collins, you don't allow him to play like Tom Freakin' Brady. I'd share some thoughts on the game with you, but I didn't get to see it. Thanks, NFL Network, you greedy bastards.- Kenny Williams slinks out of Nashville, tail between his legs after making a ludicrous comment about how the Tigers can now compete with the White Sox. Dude, it's not a playground. And if it was, your boys would get the snot knocked out of them and have all their lunch money stolen. Oh yeah, and Kenny's skin is a little thinner today, too. Maybe Santo Luis was that big fish he was talking about.
- Up here in Wisconsin, the sphincters have relaxed a bit now that the Elderly Hillbilly was observed by the loving local media tossing a football. If he heroically leads the Fudge Packers to victory on Sunday, no telling how intense the man love is going to get.
- Everywhere he goes, The Genius spreads sunshine and love.
- As a broadcaster, I am absolutely floored that someone would even consider nominating Joe Morgan for induction as a broadcaster. Are you kidding me? He doesn't even do play by play. The baseball hall of fame is quickly becoming a joke. Hell, I'd nominate Steve Stone before I'd nominate Joe Morgan.
- Now, Todd Bertuzzi claims it was his coach, Marc Crawford, that ordered the code red on Colorado's Steve Moore. It's 100% true that hockey players will send a goon out to beat up a guy, but I'm sure Crawford's remarks didn't conclude with "break his neck and knock him unconscious with a cheap shot from behind." That part is all on Bertuzzi.
- LSU defensive lineman Glenn Dorsey has won the Lombardi award as the nation's top defensive lineman. Dorsey should get an award for being on of the toughest as he played most of the season on one leg.
- College football coaching news: Ty Willingham returns for one more shot at turning around Washington before he becomes unemployed again; Georgia Tech, as predicted in this column is taking a real good look at Navy coach Paul Johnson; Butch Davis will stay at North Carolina probably because between the Browns and his first year with the Heels he killed his market value and Greg Schiano is staying in New Jersey and not putting roots down in Michigan. That would be the opposite of Jimmy Hoffa.
- Another outstanding episode of fun with Wade and Jerry from our friends at Kissing Suzy Kolber. This and Sweet Lou's Friday Roundup from "Hire Jim Essian" are quickly becoming the highlights of my week.
- The "Duece of Davenport" compares bodily harm to the late Evil Knievel versus bodily harm to the still living Steve McNair.
- On behalf of homeowners everywhere (including me) thanks Mr. President
for preventing us from getting strong ARMed. I know a lot of conservatives are mad at W., but the only reason he did it is because he was confused. He thought he was saving frozen monkees in a submarine (or frozen sub-primates.) Mr. Peabody!
