Random Sports Musings about all but Your Mama!
Sep 13, 2008 | 9:14AM | report this

Here's what's been popping into my little brain the past few days.

1a) CBB-NBA  - Kansas had the rep as the white bread college basketball program.  A while back a daily sports show lead-in mentioned a NBA rookie and ganja.  Immediately, I thought I'd won the 'Beasley busted for pot' lottery!  Nope, it was a couple NBA rooks from Kansas.  Gasp!  The reason the Wizard of Oz didn't want us to pull back the curtain was because a big pile of fatties was back there.  Party on Wayne!   Hey, these guys weren't even caught WITH maryjane!  They were merely suspected.  Of course, running into the can and flushing several times is normal for a couple dudes to do together, isn't it?  The team that shares together, stays together.

1b) NCAA FB -  Beanie will play, won't play, will play, won't play...excuse me while I throw up.  Is this 3rd grade?   What's up with too darn many of the 'everyones'** calling Ohio State ,OSU, all over the place.  While growing up, OSU meant Oklahoma State.  To others it means Oregon State.  At the same time, we know the 'U' means home of gun toting felons.

2) NBA - Kobe posts in the Blog NBA section.  Good god, does anyone else play in the NBA?  The legion of Kobe's sycophant, wannabe friends is scary.  For the record, Mamba did NOT jump over the sports car in the YOUTUBE video; Kobe did attempt to jump a Colorado concierge.

3) MLB - Cy Young Award.  Cliff Lee!  We talkin' Cliff Lee?  His first name is really Cy, but goes by he Cliff.  Playing for a losing team and still cranking out +20 wins against two losses is amazing!  Guess who has the lowest ERA, too.    Sorry K-Rod, you're a reliever on a team that plays too many close games.  That's how you've been in so many save situations.  

4) Kansas @ South Florida -    This morning a South Florida graduate/friend called to ask about hurricane Ike in Texas and Friday night's game.  Man, how the CFB landscape is changing.  Warm weather, high population states are starting to take over CFB.  (When asked about his South Florida jersey, the response was, "I don't have any South Florida clothes."  It figures.)

5) CFB-NFL  - Austin, Texas...don't drink the water.  What's up with the stud Texas players once in the pros?  The over-reporting on Vince Young may show a troubled young man.  The recent sports lead-ins mention suicide and a handgun.  Yikes.  This story is just getting fired up.   Ricky Williams and his ganja soap opera has slowed; his recent play had Miami give him a contract extension.  Ced Benson.  Remember him?  This Chicago Bear was busted for BUI-Boating Under the Influence.  T-sip loyalists came out and made rude, lewd, crude and abusive comments at anyone who questioned Ced's actions.  "It was a set-up."  Add the following DUI and poof, Cedric is gone from the NFL and so are the blind bloggers who loved the dude.

6) Tom Brady's Knee. - How has this not been an ESPN sports ticker category.  He's out for the season, so it's like he's dead.  Shaddup already!

7) CFB Predict The Score Blogs - No, the blogs are great subjects.  The homer responses are too predictable.  Go to an Ohio State blogger's blog and you'll see it loaded with Ohio State fans who all predict a win.  What, you guys think mini-Ditka is suiting up for the nuts?

That's it.  I'm out of time.   Lisa H and the USC song girls will now lead us in My Sharona.

 **Per the B&O/JokersWild/SteveoInHTown spelling class, I may make schizznit words up where needed...because I'm an artist.

Personally I think Palin's answer concerning the bridge to nowhere led to what I already know. She'll be no different from any of the other mo*rons that've been up there on Capitol Hill.
As for answers on the economy well if her mindset is like of those other idi*ots on both sides of the political aisle. Then we'll be in for one friggin' bumpy ride.

After reading that article I can't believe anyone with an IQ over 70 would put Palin one step from the Presidency with a 72 year old president.

If we're looking for someone who's well spoken, you or I should be elected.

Husker – As a Lawrence native and a student at KU in the 60’s I remember when Lawrence was the pot capital of the plains. If that is still the case, I don’t know. For the record, both Chalmers and Arthur deny they toked any weed that night, but hey, what else would they say?
As to the South Florida game, If the Jayhawks had not decided to take the third quarter off, they would have had a much more fulfilling evening.
(You do know that first Palin photo, as pleasing as it is, has been ‘shopped’, no?)

Who Am I?


I am under 45 years old,
I love the outdoors,
I hunt,
I am a Republican reformer,
I have taken on the Republican Party establishment,
I have many children,
I have a spot on the national ticket as vice president with less
than two years in the governor's office.


Did you guess?

I am Teddy Roosevelt in 1900.



Hmmm so Sarah Palin is not qualified but Obama is?



Statistics are a dangerous when handled by zealots.

One spring day in 2009, an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue where he had been sitting on a park bench.
The old man spoke to the Marine on guard and said, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."
The Marine replied, "Sir, Mr. Obama is not the President and does not reside here."
The old man said, "Okay," and walked away.
The following day, the same old man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama".
The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is not the President and does not reside here." The old man thanked him and again walked away.
The third day, the same old man approached the White House and said to the very same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have come here asking to speak to Mr. Obama. I've told you each time that Mr. Obama is NOT the President and does not reside here. Do you not understand?"

The old man answered, "Oh yes, I understand. I just love hearing you say it!"

The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, smiled and said,
"See you tomorrow Sir."

Or Dusty?

They're both me...I explain it on Jokerswilds last post.

A teacher asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans.
Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.

The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different, again.

Little Johnny said, 'Because I'm not an Obama fan.'

The teacher asked, 'Why aren't you an Obama fan?'

Johnny said, 'Because I'm a Republican.'

The teacher asked him why he's a Republican.

Little Johnny answered, 'Well, my Mom's a Republican, and my Dad's a Republican, so I'm a Republican.'

Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, 'If your mom was a #### and if your dad was an ####, then what would that make you?'

With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, 'That would make me an Obama fan.'

slshusker, I've been waiting for another entry of yours. You need to write more. This is classic. 'Pot Lottery', Kobe, and homers. We think too much alike. Also probably means we are getting old!? I'm still laughing. Great stuff. By the way, our 'Skers will be suiting up mini-Ditka next week when Virginia Tech rolls into Lincoln.

Sarah Palin was quite the basketball player back in the day. Based on her experience as a mayor AND later, a governor, she's more qualified to be in the Oval Office than either Obama (143 days in the Senate) or Biden (plagarizer).

Obama is as qualified to be president as my cat.

Jon, please post the name of your cat. I'd vote for her before a certain Senator who's never done anything at any level.

It's the 'merkan way.

I want to see a list of foreign entities giving money to Obama!

Shouldn't a political party put the most qualified person on the ticket as the Presidential candidate?

Statistics are a dangerous when handled by zealots. I believe Burnt Orange isn't a color, it's a disease. The DH rule should be elimintated. I like cats and dogs...cats taste more like chicken. Women are god's greatest creation. Barry Bonds was detrimental to sports. The month after the Super Bowl is sports HELL. March Madness is the best elongated sports extravaganza.
The Masters is great watching, in spite of Jim 'nancy boy' Nantz. Anyone spouting political commentary should be barred from this site. This is a sports blog! I need a soma. easy polls
