I feel mislead. I was not too far into the movie before realizing that there would be no telestrator, no colorful commentary, and that the director must be an altogether different John Madden.

Dunkin Donuts Turbo Ice

Original Blend Iced Coffee plus a kick of real espresso. I know this is not the preferred nomenclature, but you have to be a real retard to get it in decaf.

The events of last weekend reminded me of why we used to call one of our friends, Rob Deer. For those of you who have never heard of Rob Deer, he was a baseball player (briefly in Detroit) who swung for the fences on every at bat. He ended up hitting quite a few home runs, but only because he took a huge cut at every garbage pitch that was thrown at him.

Anyway, our friend, who for anonymity I will refer to as Kirk A, apparently got a hold of a fat pitch this weekend.

And I got to thinking, have I been fair to Rob Deer this whole time? So I took the list of top 50 career strikeouts leaders and divided their home runs by their strikeouts. Guess your answer for the worst HR to SO ratio of the top 50 (min 1419 SO's) and post to the comments.

FYI - Rob Deer is 54th on the career strikeout list, so he didn't make the cut, but if he was in the list he would have the 9th worst ratio.

I am so unhappy. Why? Well, you see, when it lands face down you have even less than the usual 7 seconds to pick it up and eat it. And I'm hungry.

Remember the good old days? Back when Greg Lemond was the TdF champ and nobody wore **y yellow bracelets?

Which reminds me... Delta Airlines better not go out of business now that I've racked up 100k frequent flyer miles. And Northwest better not go out of business after I slept in the same clothes for 4 days to get a crapload of travel vouchers. That would piss me off.

It's amazing how much more fun it is to get phone calls when your ringtone is the theme to This Week In Baseball. Some times I just let it keep ringing and try to pick up right before the person hangs up. RIP Mel Allen.

Thank you to New Orleans for demonstrating the vital necessity and continuing relevance of the 2nd Amendment. Criminals and gangs will always have weapons. Clearly, in extraordinary circumstances the government cannot be relied on for protection. That is precisely why, the right of the people to keep and bear arms is necessary for the security of a free state.

And some people affected by the hurricane will have that protection, as soon as the background check computers are running again and the waiting period has elapsed. Ok, actually I support those two rules, although I think the waiting period should be more like "count to 10 and take a few deep breaths."

So I guess it's time for me to jump through the hoops and expense to get myself a permit.
