WTF...then again...why should I be surprised? Why should any of the following surprise me...or...anyone else for that matter? See if you agree. Item 1 - The University of Oklahoma has "self-reported" a handful of "minor" violations of NCAA rules. These "minor" violations revolve around inadvertant phone calls or text messages from coaches to recruits. On the list are phone calls from football head coach Bob Stoops and assistant coach Jackie Shipp. Another was from a woman's assistant basketball coach. WTF...then again...why should I be surprised? Did the University of Oklahoma hire Kelvin Sampson as their new compliance officer? Doesn't this sound incredibly like the issue that reared it's ugly head upon his leaving OU for Indiana...and then when he was at Indiana? Did they say "Kelvin's ...

I had a doctor's appointment this morning and the drive to his office took me through Eden Prairie, MN. On any other day this is an uneventful drive. However, as it turns out this is not...any other day...in the SW suburb of Minneapolis, MN. Nope...not...any...other...day...because the "Savior" has arrived. And I'm sick of it...him...already! Brett "My Daughter Made Me Do It" Favre had his first full day of practice as a Minnesota Viking today. And the News Trucks lined up outside of their training facility...and the whirlwind of activity in the complex...supports the minions of Minnesotans who think he is the second coming...of...yep...that guy...but not Tiger Woods. Those are other minions!!! And then I thought about it a little bit and thought, "Well, maybe you ain't looking at it the ...

I have been extremely busy getting ready for school to start this year and haven't the time...or...quite frankly...the interest to post anything new for quite a while. Something...probably...about not having the incredible desire to post nothing but dribbling...worthless stuff...to accumulate...worthless points...that I don't understand...and don't see their function...other than giving credit to...worthless dribbling. Anyway...I digress. In the past couple of days a few things have happened that fit the official/unofficial requirements of another ARE YOU FREAKIN' KIDDIN' ME post. Yep...ARE YOU FREAKIN' KIDDIN' ME...freakin' idiot sportswriters!!! Most of you that follow sports...in any degree...know about the GREATEST UPSET in GOLF HISTORY yesterday. Yes...it finally happened...and instead ...

I was up late last night for no other reason than...I was up late last night. Actually this is important to my post because...after being up late last night...I didn't get up to help my wife at church. Let he who has stayed up late at night and didn't get up to help the wife at church...throw stones if you want...and the rest of you just...just...well...don't throw stones. My wife has taken care of the guilt thing pretty well. Of course...I've given her a lot of opportunity to know how to do that in the gazillion years we have been together...don't ya know! So anyway...the paper was on the table when I got up today at noon...felt like one of my kids...and in feeling like my kids I popped open the old box of Trix...silly freakin' rabbit...and had my standard mid size tupperware bowl of ...

Last day of vacation and as I prepare to go home I was watching ESPN today and...not to my surprise...a report on Brett Favre's return to the NFL with...the...Minnesota Vikings! Here We Freakin' Go Again! Seems Ol' Brett is a bit "conflicted" about joining the Vikings this year. A couple of weeks ago he didn't know if his surgically repaired arm would be ready. Then word got out that the Vikings...for the second time (?)...asked for a commitment from Brett...before training camp starts. Then the fervor over Brett died down for a bit. But...in light of recent developments...Big Ben's legal issues over alleged rape of woman in Lake Tahoe...Erin Andrews getting videotaped through the proverbial "keyhole" walking around nude in her hotel room...Lance Armstrong running behind in the Tour de ... |
