I'm rolling now.
1. I felt so badly for that kid who started for the Padres last night...he just didn't look like a major league pitcher, at least last night.
2. When did everyone stop going to Dodger games? It's the culmination of a pennant race and the place looked empty.
3. I just can't watch pre-season hockey. The Rangers are on every night, and I can't even make it through the first period before I switch to something else.
4. And the announcers, jeesh. Hey Joe Micheletti, don't tell me how great Zherdev is going to be this year because he had one good pre-season shift. Let's see how he does when everyone starts finishing their checks. His M.O. is that he disappears all too often when that happens.
5. Giving up gamers like Sean Avery, Martin Straka, Fyedor Tyutin and Brendan Shanahan, and bringing in disappearing acts like Zherdev, Wade Redden, Dmitri Kalinin, and Peter Nedved? Oh yes it's going to be a long season on Broadway.
6. Am I the only Yankee fan who didn't watch the ceremonies on Sunday? Cowboys/Packers was too good to pass up.
7. Love and Death is so not a 'chick movie'. It's not even a romance, really, it's Marx Brothers-like slapstick, and it's hysterical.
8. NFL shortcuts. Watch a whole NFL game in 30 minutes, every play. Amazing.
9. What's up with the Iggles' defense? Torched by the Cowboys, then dominant against the Steelers...
10. I watched The Game Plan over the weekend, the movie where The Rock inherits his young daughter. Roselyn Sanchez was in it...
11. The Cubs can play/pitch whoever they want against the Mets. It's the Brewers' own fault that they need help.
12. Is Beanie Wells really that good? The Buckeyes look extremely ordinary right now.
13. The SEC is the Mets of college football. They're so obnoxious, everyone neutral winds up rooting against them.
14. Wow what a difficult triathlon in Virginia this past Saturday. Incredibly hilly (more like mountainy), it seemed like even the swim was uphill. Gorgeous scenery though...absolutley gorgeous.
15. For all the triathletes out there...not a good idea to do a three hour and 15 minute race, and jump right into the car for an eight hour ride home. Wow, by Maryland I had to stop just to get out and stretch.
16. Tri season is over, 28 weeks of training, three races, I'm in awesome shape, and no injuries.
17. The Showtime version of Inside the NFL is good. Peter King needs to get over his Warren Sapp obsession about the show.
18. Speaking of Sapp, wow the man can move on Dancing With the Stars.
19. Not sure why these 'boy band' dancers on that show annoy me so much. The N'sync kid on that show is just, umm, not my taste. Cute kid, but not for me.
20. The Mets paid Santana all that money just for last night's game.
21. The phone didn't ring the other night, and it was Henrik. Again. I need to get him a picture or something. Maybe he watched Game Plan! With my luck he'll start dating Roselyn Sanchez instead of the watered down (but in really good shape!) version.
22. There are too many goalies on the goalie equipment commitee. That's why pads were reduced this year by like one tenth of a millimeter. It's like putting a bunch of kickers on a committee that votes to make goal posts 50 yards wide.
23. Phil Esposito interviewed by Sam last night. Espo looks great, and surprise, his favorite Rangers are Del Zotto, Sanguinetti, Girardi, and the rest of the Italian/American team. No love for Callahan!
24. Does Oregon's quarterback suffer a season-ending injury every year, or an I imagining things?
25. How satisfying was it to see Belicheck's team get thoroughly outplayed at home for once? And to see Belicheck thoroughy outcoached as well?
26. Coca Cola Cake dessert at Cracker Barrel restaurant...oh my, it's better than, well, you know. Nothing to do with Coca Cola despite the name. Decadent chocolate and ice cream...better order two, anyone trying to share with me risks getting stabbed with a fork! Beyond yummy.
27. Why was the Sabres/Canadiens pre-season game from northern Quebec shown on TSN in Canada (NHL Network in USA), with CBC logos all over the place, including on the ice? Strange.
28. At the risk of sounding catty, Jessica Simpson looked really big on Letterman last week. Not fat necessarily, just very filled out.
29. Three days of no training, and I already feel like I've put on a pound.
30. Anyone watch Little People Big World? I love the Roloffs.
