Pujols has got to be pissed right now.
And, so it comes to pass:
Albert Pujols wrote: "I see it this way: Someone who doesn't take his team to the playoffs doesn't deserve to win the MVP," Pujols said in Spanish at a news conference organized by the Dominican Republic's sports ministry.

Usually, I can keep my rooting interest and my fantasy football interest separate. I generally always root against the Ravens. They are competing against the Broncos in the playoff race, and even though he said it tongue-in-cheek, ojo listed some good reasons, too. But dammit, they're my defense in ...

I see your Jeremy Shockey and raise you a TO. He is now chiming in on Vanderjagt. Why can these gusy not shut the fuck up and just play? The only respect I will give him is he is admitting he lost the Washington game for the team. Still, why undermine the coach and the new kicker. What a dick. http...

Sure. But, I'm flying to Denver to attend the game Sunday evening and not coming back until Monday evening, so I wouldn't be able to give or take a new avatar until then.

Nice one, Turd. My six-year old and I have watched you on TV after dinner each day this week. And I even had to spend some time explaining the Turd Ferguson handle to my wife.

It's almost as impressive as your almost winning our fantasy hockey league last season!

Wow, Brainbo. Tough story. My folks are both still alive, but starting to get up there in age (I'm no "kid") and I really don't look forward to ever having to plan a funeral, etc. I hope my little girl sees fit to post something like that somewhere someday, when I'm an old(er)timer. I rare...

I'm 2/3 done with this and enjoying it very much:

Next, I'm going to start this one. I love historical stuff, especially if it takes a hard, balanced look:

Any drink that is liquor mixed with soda pop.

It means you really don't enjoy the liquor, right?

Plus, two of them = hangover.

A Manhattan.

I like it with Canadian whiskey (Crown Royal if you've got it) rather than straight bourbon.

Yay! Again, the Turd is in the chips! (so to speak)

Monday, I felt like I could have gotten a lot of those, but today, the Turd was smokin' and I was left in the dust, scratching my head in wonder.

But, sheesh dude. I'd be happy to make you a mix CD to acquaint ya with Buck Owens!

I'm surprised that the name Al Campanis has not yet entered this thread. He was the long-time General Manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers at the time he had a memorable discussion with Ted Koppel on Nightline: Campanis did not get a raw deal. I was watching that interview live. Mouth agape. Fuck him...

Raiders Demote Offensive Coordinator; Promote John Shoop

Gotta love this : The Raiders demoted offensive coordinator Tom Walsh Tuesday, giving John Shoop play-calling duties for the offense. Walsh will stay with the team and coach the tight ends. We suspect this was an Al Davis-directed move and Shell may not be safe after this year either. Shoop was memo...
