206. Well, different number actually…wrong hook.
Thoughts for the day…
- Greetings and salutations, people. Thanks for coming aboard (the boat). Let’s move.
- I don’t have much to say today. Just a quickie. I am a little salty today, and you don’t need to concern yourself about why because that is not what this blog is about, but let’s just say it makes for a better blog.
- Day was made worse when my ice machine didn’t work when I got home. I live on ice machines and walk in showers.
- Quick one today as my night is set aside for Brent’s last broadcast. Besides his mid career wrongdoings, he is arguably one of the best broadcasters of multiple sports…of all time.
- For an airline that we all love, Southwest just needs to FIRE all of their website people. I need to book a flight to Cali. Get your crap in gear, Southwest.
- Blake Barnett will get immediate eligibility at ASU. Why is this important? He was a Bama guy before Hurts took over this season full time. #1 QB pocket passer coming out of high school. ASU fans are SMILING right now. Probably even one of my sales mentors, Mr. Fine.
- Watching Maryland bball right now. They had a couple guys come back. TWO losses. Pittsburgh and Nebraska? What is THAT about?
- Lost a co-worker today moving on that was really a PART of our company from the beginning. We will miss you, Kaytie. Lots of us.
- Anyone else think it is weird that Derek Fisher had $300k of stuff stolen from him a day after saying he did better than Jeff with the cast he had???? I guess a hard core sports fan needed some cash, had some pops, and got pissed (and also owned some robber gear).
- Come ON. Cavs are holding a special free agent TRYOUT???? Can this get any funnier with GM LeBron??? Barkley, I know I am watching one of the greatest, but I got your back. He is being whiny. My life would be better if LeBron ONLY would have won it all with a manufactured team.
- What am I talking about? He is STILL manufacturing teams.
- Thanks, Tom Brady, for telling us something and nothing about your family’s tough year. Since we know no more, I assume you just want to be known as an emotional guy before your 5000th Super Bowl win.
- Joe Montana was 4-0 and didn’t throw an interception, 4-2 guy. Just SAYING.
- Yes, I told you I was salty.
- Chad Forde wrote a great catchup on college bball for folks attached to football but with the season about to end. Read it.
- ALMOST as good as the ESPN article about the origin of the Matty Ice nickname. I knew some of the stuff, and hope it was because of the beer he drank at a party one time. I was a big time college Natty Ice guy in my frat days.
- So, if you tweet Sergio Garcia 206 times, apparently you get hired as a caddy. I will start day #1 tomorrow. I don’t care about him as much as I would love to cross off my bucket list “Be a professional caddie for a day on television.”
- If Atlanta fails in the Super Bowl, let’s ALL agree to blame it on a conspiracy about the media guy who took Kyle Shanahan’s backpack after a presser for a couple of minutes. K?
- By the way, this Super Bowl will be a home Pats game from what I am hearing. I have been to Atlanta and witnessed the east coast fan apathy, but geez.
- Darth Raider had a good 24 hours, aye? Funds PULLED for Vegas.
- Sometimes I think I am missing out on not going to a Super Bowl, but then I realize I have been to Houston. Sucks.
- If TD gets into the HOF, THIS is the year to do it. Listen, LT is the only shoo-in. Voters will look at the rest of the nominees and say “yeah, Terrell DID have those great few years.”
- I disagree, but there are guys in who I have more of a problem with.
- I have huge plans with watching the Super Bowl. On my couch. I have scrolled through the list of Super Bowl parties I was invited to and decided I want to hear the commercials.
- That was sarcastic…the scrolling part.
- I almost wish there was more to comment on in the sports world. I am salty beyond all belief. Lindsey is at a HH. Oh well. Note to self. Maybe have a long article idea that isn’t numbered in the hopper for days like this.
- Melo Trimble just did two mind blowing moves. How did he get forgotten this year (I had them to win it all last year)? Smith, Fultz, Fox, and Ball are stealing the media headlines, but Melo is a PLAYER.
- Anyone want to go with me to Galactic with me on Saturday? I don’t think Lindsey likes that band…but they are playing ONE block from me.
- Apparently, we are seeing Pepper Friday. This is our quiet weekend.
- The Knicks are presently down to the Wizards by 19 in the third. Are they trying NOT to lose last second? Proud of them for not being gray area tonight thus far.
- The Wizards are playing like…we all thought they would have looked for the last two years.
- Seriously, I type SOOOOOO fast when I am blogging. I am like outside of myself. It is literally amazing.
- All of these hooks took about 13 minutes.
- I hope Iverson goes to the Cavs tryouts…just to piss them off.
- When talking about best Super Bowl ads, I always think of my jaw dropping to the floor in laughter during MJ’s baseball stint about playing pickup games in parks.
- Fox sucks because it is jibberish. SI sucks because of all the pop-up ads. ESPN sucks because of their stupid charts. Simmons only sucks when he talks instead of writes. I have so many ideas for a full fledged sports site. Call me.
- Did you know that Drew Bledsoe’s net worth is $48 million. THAT is why we don’t hear him talking about Brady taking over.
- Oh that’s RIGHT. Aren’t we at the time of year for the big DOG show? Noted.
- This Google Doc idea I had for my blog list is freaking brilliant. Saving yellow trees too.
- This is EASILY my favorite sports story of the day. Gronk. http://deadspin.com/rob-gronkowski-once-tanked-a-free-throw-to-keep-his-hig-1791836453
- That’s it for today. Will I blog tomorrow? That is a CLOWN question, bro. Peace.
