To the four of you who left comments the last few days... thank you. You have inspired me to re-write my blog in its entirety this time using a Microsoft word format while occasionally using the save feature - truly a thing of beauty.
One very important poster stressed his enjoyment with Hot Pocket related categories which has me wondering what is everyone else's favorite Hot Pocket?
I used to believe Hot Pockets were good if they fell in the pizza genre but more recently have become addicted to the Cheeseburger flavor Lean Pockets. Even the Chicken, Broccoli and Cheese have been known to cram my freezer shelves. These hot pockets that I speak of may be the best frozen food since Ted Williams.... I mean ice cream. Who's with me? To the NGS Judges out there - have you guys tried the Sub Pockets? Would you classify them in the same family of frozen pizza snack - or would you put them in a whole different conference?

I have never tried the Beef and Cheddar- how about you?
Now to the stuff I promised to cover before:
Brett Favre: Even as a Lions fan I find it hard to root for the guy but enough is enough. When the man starts tossing hook shots into the Bears secondary it is time for the media to idolize another sports star. I heard about some guy named Tom Brady apparently he's pretty good; maybe he'd be a candidate.
Detroit Pistons: Is it too early to talk about a Motown regular season record run. 72-10 looks doable right now. Speaking of the Pistons who is this Maurice Evans guy? Why do I live between Detroit and the Palace of Auburn Hills and not know where this guy came from?

What's hotter? This Pistons Dancer or the basketball teams win streak. Thats a hullabaloo.
Really random but I love the name Speedy Claxton. Almost as much as I love Rec Specs.
SNL Chronicles of Narnia Rap: In less than 4 minutes this rap starring Chris Parnell and that one kid with the goofy hair made me realize SNL has a pulse - or at least more so than Mehmet Okur. Great references to Google Maps, Mr. Pibb, Bruce Willis and the Ghost with no real correlation to that Narnia movie that none of us will ever go see. However I like the Taco Town skit from a few months ago. Not like it matters but I have never had Mr. Pibb - or eaten at a Sonic Burger. I read a blog about this sort of thing on the east coast but I would like to state for the record here in Michigan we have more Sonic commercials than expressway potholes. The thing is we don't have any Sonic's. I traveled to the Final Four earlier this year and I passed by the same Sonic twice. Needless to say it was closed both times making me wonder if it's a multi-million dollar national drug front.

The Chronicles of Narnia Rap is on par with the Taco Town skit.
Lions vs. Saints Thriller:
Yes I just used Lions, Saints and thriller in the same sentence. But did anyone see that comeback. First the inept offense of the Lions implodes- only to regain their composure grabbing two key first downs and win the game on a Jason Hanson kick. As a Michigan State student I could not draw comparisons to the Spartans Buckeyes game from the fall. As Harrington was running off the field with twelve seconds left I saw Joey Harrington quickly morph into Drew Stanton - meanwhile my dad is yelling at the t.v. "Joey come back" and all I can think off is that John L. Smith quote " the team is playing their tails off and the coaches are screwing it up." Great quote, great game(s). But one question why didn't the Lions just spike the ball - wouldn't it be easier - wouldn't it be just like the Lions to do the hard thing?
Lastly I want to mention that I plan on writing a quick book review on Bringing Down the House - but since the contest is almost over if I don't get to it just remember - on par with the Boxcar Children. And no one older than 25 understands that reference. Twelve years later, I still wonder what it would be like to live an abandoned boxcar. Quaint and adventurous strike me as fitting terms as do hobo and shower less.
A book that I won't be writing a book review on is Now I can Die in Peace by that one Sports writer who we all know so well. But as much as I love the guy's writing, he has become so repetitive talking about team B and their rivalry with the hated team A. See I won't even mention the real names of either of these teams because truth be told I think it's overkill. I also think most of us now hate team B as much as team A just because team B has reached Dallas Cowboys or L.A. Lakers status where ESPN devotes extraordinarily inappropriate amounts of time to mundane coverage of Kobe Bryant flossing or Bill Parcells eating. I won't even mention this writers name because he frustrates me now - almost as much as that overrated Outfielder who signed with team A after playing with team B. Honestly what is 6 million more dollars anyway. We have Tsunami victims and Hurricane Victims who don't have homes and wannabe Jesus is signing with the devil for a bigger paycheck - it makes me angry. I also get really angry when super sportswriter only talks about a cursed town when really I am the one who is cursed. Yeah I have the Red Wings and the Pistons but truly love the Lions and Tigers. They easily cancel each other out - plus I've dealt with the Michigan Basketball sanctions the MSU football meltdowns and the Detroit Drive folding - these types of sports tragedies are unimaginable to fans of City A. They need to pull a Trillville and "Get On My Level".
If you followed that I hope you can follow this and trust me when I tell you not to go see Fun with Dick and Jane. In a nutshell it is the worst movie since Dick Tracy and the only other movie aside from Dick Tracy that I actually walked out on. Nowadays these Jim Carey flicks are such a crapshoot- this one is not worth the gamble.
Okay it took me that long to hit the save button for the first time -which scares me. When will I learn?
Anyway I am exhausted from skiing, thank you all for your input. As this contest winds down thanks for all your comments everyone and good luck also thank you fox sports for this great opportunity.
Before I go one more plug. I know I have said this before but the Detroit Red Wings rule and so does Chuck Norris. So go to Google and search for Chuck Norris Fact Generator it yields quotes like
"Why is six afraid of seven?"
"Because Chuck Norris."

Chuck Norris is less intimidating in spandex but who isn't?
