Female Advice

This is for you single guys. If you're looking to get a girl and keep her, here are a few tips...

1. When she asks how she looks, shrug and say "Could be better." This will keep her on her toes, and girls love that.


2. Never hold her hand. This can be interpreted as a sign ofweakness. (Or--if she grabs your hand, squeeze hers really reallyhard until she cries. This will impress her by showing her what astrong man youare).


3. Once a month sneak up on her from behind and knock her over. Girlsare like dogs. They love to be roughed up.


4. Call her in the middle of the night to ask if she's sleeping. If She is, say "You better be." Repeat this 4 or 5 times until morning.This will show her you care.


5. When she is upset about something, suggest to her that it might beher fault. This will pave the way for her own personal improvement,and every girl needs some improvement.


6. If you're talking to another girl, make sure she's looking. Whenshe is, stare into her eyes mouth the words "F*ck You" and grab theother girls ass. Girls love competition.


7. Tell her you're taking her out to dinner. drive for miles so shethinks it's going to be really special. Then take her to a burningtire yard. When she starts to get upset tell her you were justkidding and now you're really going to take her to dinner. Then driveher home.When she starts crying and asks why you would do something like thatlean over and whisper very quietly into her ear "...because I can."


8. Introduce her to your friends as "some chick." Women love thosespecial nicknames.


9. Play with her hair. Play with it HARD.


10. Warm her up when she's cold...and not by giving her yourjacket...then you might get cold. Rather, look her in the eye and say"If you don't stop bitching about the cold right now you're going to bebitching about a black eye." The best way to get warm is with fear.


11. Spit often. I hear girls like guys that spit.


12. If you care about her never ever tell her. This will only give herself confidence. Then you can never turn her into the object she deepdown desires to be.


13. Every time you're in her house steal one of the following: shoes,earrings, or anything else that comes in pairs. Only take one of thepair. This way she'll go crazy.


14. Take her out to dinner. Right when she's about to order interruptand say "No, she's not hungry." Make her watch you eat. Girls love aguy that speaks for her.


15. When its raining keep asking her if she's crying. She'll say "No,its just the rain." Ten minutes later turn to her and just scream "Stopcrying you f*cking baby!" Girls like a tough man as I've already stated.


16. Titty twisters...and plenty of them.


17. If you're listening to music and she asks to hear it, tell her no.This way she'll think you're mysterious.


18. Two words...Dutch Oven.


19. Remember her birthday but don't get her anything. Teach her material objects aren't important. The only thing that's important is that shekeeps you happy. And your happiness is the greatest present she can everget.


20. When she gives you a present on your birthday, Christmas, or justwhenever, take it and tell her you love it. Then, next time you knowshe's coming over on a trash day, leave the trash can open and have thepresent visibly sticking out of the can. Girls actually don't like thisone that much but I think it's funny.

Hog Proves Its Toughness.

I'm supposed to do what?

How in the world am I supposed to get anything done when this awaits me next Friday? It is December and should be slow, but sales peole at work are lucking into stuff and I'm running ragged. Well, I guess ragged isn't the word. But I'm moving extremely slow and unfocused as hell at this point.

In other news, the Hogs picked up their 24th commitment of the recruiting season a few days ago from Lance Ray a wide receiver from Florida. This class is shaping up to be the best recruiting class the University had ever seen. I, for one, am absolutly extatic about the next 3 years. Go Bobby Go!

I also advanced in my fantasy football playoffs last night by the slimest of margins 92-91. It took Steve Smith putting up 22 pts for me. I'm the only person to win in the first round that was ranked higher than my opponent, so as of now I'm the favorite to win it. Not trying to jinx it just stating facts. 2 titles in 3 seasons would definitely put me on the verge of a dynasty.

My birthday week is finally over, that sucks. Good presents, good times. Made turning thirty pretty easy.

Its my Birthday!!!

Im freaking 30 yrs old! Never thought I would see this. Atleast Bleu is like 39, And Lola is probably in her 300s, so I'm not the oldest person on this blog.

And I can still kick it with my Dogs.

Run For Your Lives!!!!!

I knew there was something crazy about these long-necked freaks.

Party!

Aint no Party like a

Don't Stop!

Bad Times, Good Times

This should have been the catch that put Arkansas at the 21 yard line with about 1:10 left in the 4th Quarter this Saturday. Being down by 2 and at the 20 isn't a bad place to be, yet another questionable call was made that cost the Hogs the game. An Offensive Pass Interference call. What makes it even more disheartening is the fact that a clear Defensive Pass Interference was not called 2 plays later, near the exact spot! Oh well at least we have a chance to ruin the Tulsa Golden Hurricane's perfect season this next weekend.

But lets not let this put a damper on the October we've had this year.

First off had a Good start to the month with Monster weekend in Fayetteville, Duane and Phrough made the trip, for the Florida game,

Ran into my old bartender Van with Skittles.

Kicked it with some Old School West Memphis Fools.

Navajo, Myself, the Fayetteville virgin Duane and Skittles.

And the wife and I were looking fly.

Awesome Time!

The Next Weekend involved Arkansas v Auburn at Buffalo Wild Wings with the Jop and Candace on Saturday afternoon, which was awesome because we won that game!

That was followed up by

in the Suitest seats ever! Get it?

Sunday was not to be out done though, because we saw
And what a fucking show! I swear they always step it up for the Brady. They definitely did not disappoint. Some of my personal favorites were; Pleas, Barstools and Space Wrangler to close the first set. They put out an all time Stop-Go in the 2nd and encored with a little Trouble, Don't Be Denied, Papa's Home! Just great! Thank You.

You're Welcome.

The next weekend my Mother-In-Law was in town, which might have been a good thing, since it kept me from the Oktoberfest Weekend. But we managed to sneak over there on Wednesday.

The next weekend was this past weekend that involved a Huge day of tailgating in Fayetteville before the infamous Ole Piss game.

After Saturday we headed back to Tulsa and brought a slew of Stone Temple Pilots fans with us. We closed the weekend with a great show where STP played every song I could have wanted them to, just a great show.

And the Spirit Bank Event Center is pretty sweet itself. Not very big, but has a bar upstairs with a great view of the stage and makes for a quite pleasant little venue.

So, decent month. 3 concerts, 4 if you count the polka bands at Oktoberfest. 2 Home games. And a whole lotta good times. One horrible conversation and 3 losses. I'll take it! (Minus the 3 losses and it might have been too much). Sometimes its good to be

unless you're in cuffs.

Its Going to be a Nutthouse

Tomorrow the Devil comes back to town! I cannot wait to beat his pussy, Ole Miss ass! Seriously, I haven't been this excited about a game since the SEC Championship in 2006 against Florida. We lost that game and Nutt never fully recovered. If we lose this one, the entire state might never recover. I have no doubt that grown men will embarass themselves in front of their children tomorrow night around 5:55 pm when Houston comes out of the opposing team's tunnel and such foul descriptions of human waste start spewing out of mouths. I'm sure there will more than a few words of advice on where he should spend his afterlife as well. God I'm nervous!

In other news....

The World Series is going on! I just don't care.

The election is only 2 weeks away! I have full fledged voter's fatigue.

Its Friday and no work for 2 days! Now that's something I support!

Oh wait my boss is calling right now, because noone I work with can figure out SHIT!!!!

Come on Lucky Lotto Tickets! Baby needs a life of Fridays.

Bleu's Blues

This guy is lucky he doesn't get his ass kicked!

The UK-UA game was plagued with questionable calls including incidents that involved referees allegedly telling Arkansas receivers to move closer to the line of scrimmage in order to not get an "illegal formation" penalty which were then flagged for "illegal procedure" and "false start" penalties. That game was completely controlled for 56 minutes by the Razorbacks only to be ripped away from them on 2 separate drives in the last 4 minutes that involved a total of 4 plays and 2 tds and a 21-20 loss.

For those keeping count, which is really only me, Arkansas is 0-6 against UK in Basketball and Football games since I've met my wife.

The only reason we can't complain to much about the officiating is because we didn't get tackled by one. Check out this tackle by a referee against South Carolina!

Sure its only 1 conference victory, but somebody had to compare it to Gladiator, right?



Just click on Razorbacks down Auburn.

Out of Hiding

Well the Hogs beat Auburn this past week, so we are coming out of our depression, as well as over the Cubs playoff loss.


POSSIBLE BREAK FOR A WEEKEND

Not quite. We have been super busy, with the last weekend that we didn't have plans going back to like July. It was possible that this could be one of those weekends, but in-laws are coming.

THE IN-LAWS ARE COMING! THE IN-LAWS ARE COMING!

I enjoy my in-laws for the most part and don't really mind when they visit, but could you pick a worse time? I doubt it. Its like they threw a dart over their shoulder and it lands on THIS weekend. Let me explain. My in-laws are from Kentucky, the Hogs win a big game on the road and this weekend they play KENTUCKY! I know they probably couldn't care less but its just a little bit wierd. I was actually planning on not even talking to my wife this weekend to try and keep her Kentuckiness off of me. Now I will be covered in it. Its like my personal fandom was catching momentum just to be pooped on.

50 Spot

Take Kansas State -5.5 @ Louisville.

Bleu Likey!

Bleu's Next Picks

Bleu has been in the dumps since losing $200 on the Hogs last week, plus no game this weekend due to Hurricane Ike. Depression is real.

On to the Picks:

-

Kansas @ South Florida -4

Bleu's taking USF bc of homefield and the fact that we just can't get over the fact the KU went to a BCS game last year.

Kansas 24 - South Florida 34

Put the $25 spot on it.

-

Oregon -8 @ Purdue

Purdue hasn't beat a ranked team since like 2003 and Oregon has one the best Offenses in the country. This could get ugly.

Oregon 42 - Purdue 17

Put the $50 spot on it.

-

Penn State -28 @ Syracuse

I can't believe the 'cuse still has a football team. Penn State has been putting up a lot of points and Bleu doesn't think this will be close after the first quarter.

Penn State 68 - Syracuse 3

Put the $50 spot on it.

-

Rice @ Vandy -8.5

I'm a believer! Vandy has a fifth year Senior QB and and a running game that has been getting the job done. Go Commodores! Make a Bowl!

Rice 13 - Vandy 24

Put the $25 spot on it.

-

Oklahoma -21 @ Washington

After the way the Huskies lost last week to BYU, they have to be crushed. Its a bad time for OU to be visiting them and Sam Bradford will destroy their Defense.

OU 54 - Washington 21

Put the $50 spot on it.

-

Wisconsin @ Fresno St. +2

We are going Bulldogs because you have to like the way they play anybody, anywhere, anytime. Wisconsin is solid, but this might be the fastest team they play all year.

Wisconsin 21 - Fresno St 27

Put the $25 spot on it.

-

Ohio State @ USC -11.5

Outclassed in every aspect are the Buckeyes this week and the Beenie injury excuse is already being used. Look for Pete Carroll and the Trojans to make a big time statement in this one and even add on to it late in the game.

Ohio State 16 - USC 41

Put the $100 spot on it.

-

Just to recap the season so far Bleu has $900 left in the account, down from the $1000 starting point. He is 3-3 on the season. I told him to go with UNC last night, but he was to lazy to get out of the floor and bet.

Big weekend here with $325 in the air. Good luck. Hopefully we don't have to get Lola in here to get some money back for us on Sunday.

NCAAF Picks by Bleu.

Bleu is exhausted right now and doesn't have a lot of time so there is only 1 pick for the week.

ULM @ Arkansas

Arkansas was awful against Western Illinois last week, but 9 starters were either injured or suspended. Plus the big news today should excite the crowd at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock tomorrow. This team will not except anything less than perfection!

Bleu is putting $200 on it at -14

Arkansas 52 - ULM 14

Account at $1120.

Stay Classy.

Darius Winston is a HOG!

Darius Winston announced today he will be a Razorback next year. This is a HUGE get for the Petrino staff. He has 20+ offers including the Who's Who list of NCAAF. He originally committed to the University but decomitted when he received so much attention. Who can blame him? When Michigan, Tennessee, Clemson and many others call you have to atleast listen, right? I mean think about it. You're 18 and live in Helena, AR and you have a chance to look around. He did it first class in my opinion. Committed, wanted to look, decommitted and then re-committed due to his love of the hometeam. It didn't hurt that every other male in his family played there either. He is the #2 CB coming out of high school next year and should be an immediate starter upon his arrival.

Friday Make-Up Bet

Bleu hit the under last night in the South Carolina game, but was fooled by the Baylor's offense coming into the season.

He's dropping another $25 on Army at home tonight against Temple getting +7.5.

Not sure about any of it, but its Army, another home dog, so we're going with it.

Current account $1022.50

Picks for College Football Week #1

Bleu is taking his $1000 allowance and sinking into an account for sporting purposes. Being the first week we're going to take it slow.

Bleu Picks:

North Carolina State @ South Carolina
The Cocks look to let their Defense carry the load this year and with a new D Coordinator Ellis Johnson they should be solid. NCSU 14 - USC 27
Under 45 for $50

Wake Forest @ Baylor
The Bears have a new coach in Art Briles. He will get them to come out fired up but fall short to Wake in a late, but close finish. WFU 31 - BU 24
Baylor +12 for $25

Western Michigan @ Nebraska
Again a new coach and again a fired up squad and more importantly a VERY fired up crowd ringing in the Bo Pelini era. Bleu gives it a 4 Paw pick! WMU 17 - NU 49
Nebraska -14.5 for $100

Alabama @ Clemson
This could go either way with the expectations and the excitement at Clemson, they expect to win and win big this year. In the past we've seen this and heard this and it always ends up the same old song. The young, inexperienced, well-coached Crimson Tide wins a squeaker and gets a boost in the polls, while deflating the optimism in Death Valley. UA 30- Clemson 28
Alabama +4.5 for $25

There we go the start a new season with some Thursday night games and plenty of time to get back to even through the weekend.

Season Preview

The College Football Season starts this week and we are about to go through the ringer of predictions and bank account inflation! This could be the year we retire on my gambling profits and Bleu and I will be documenting our journey to the peak of the football gambling world.
First of all we will tackle some simple pre-season predictions.

Easy Ones:

Pac Ten – USC (I mean really? Who else)

Big East – West Virginia (Seem to be the best team top to bottom)

Big Ten – Ohio State (I mean really? Who else)

Big XII:
North – Missouri
South – Oklahoma ( TTech is good but wont beat the Sooners this year)

Not so easy ones:

ACC

Coastal- North Carolina (Little bit of a surprise)
Look at the schedule and you’ll find that if Butch Davis can get his kids paying hard they will be able to walk through the end of the season. They go to Rutgers on 9/13 and if they lose that it doesn’t matter in the conference and may wake them up. After that, Va Tech comes in and that should be a test but I think they can surprise a team that still isn’t sure about their QB at that point. If they win that they will have confidence going into a game at the U (Miami if you have no idea what we are talking about). That is the BIG game as far as I’m concerned. If they get by that, UCONN at home and on the road to UVA. Then the national attention will turn to them when they get Notre Dame at home and should be able to win. Then its up to them keeping it up after getting interviewed by Rece Davis and the get a home game against a Matt Ryan-less BC and then end the season with G Tech, Maryland, North Carolina State and Duke.

Atlantic – Clemson

I really like Wake Forest this year, but Clemson seems to be better. I hate the little Bowden and Jim Grobe is the much better coach, but talent should be the determining factor here. Miami is still shaky and Randy has another season to go before they get back to true form.

ACC Championship – Give me North Carolina in a “Bowden Choke Job.”

SEC:

East – Georgia

They have a brutal schedule and have lost some key pieces, but I think Matt Stafford is the real deal and can lead them to the BIG W against Florida. They lose at LSU and win the rest. I’m getting a little crazy here but: I think Tennessee beats Florida, loses to Kentucky (ending an almost 3 decade winning streak, fluke but lets say it happens), Florida loses to Tennessee, UGA and a late season upset loss to FSU ( For no real reason).

West – Auburn

Their schedule is very nice for them this year. Their only loss will be to UGA at home late in the year and will kill their momentum, but they should beat everyone else. I now their QB situation is questionable, but that OL is the best IMO in the conference and will make up for any troubles they may have early.

SEC Championship – UGA

BIG PICK:

NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP

USC vs Oklahoma

They both go undefeated and end up beating out the SEC champ because of that, but they might be the best 2 TEAMS there are. I don’t expect a score like the last championship they played against each other, but I do expect USC to win. Give me USC 38 – Oklahoma 24.

So USC get the Championship!

But GO HOGS!

Quick update

The Blog is probably about to take a turn towards gambling since football is on the verge. Bleu loves to gamble, next to sex drugs and rock and roll, his biggest vice. So I will make some picks and keep you up to date on wins and losses.

Also, had to post this:

Next Week is Gameday!

Its Friday and that should be good enough, but next week is the first Razorback home game and that makes this weekend a little anti-climatic. Plus the Cubs got killed today by the Freakin' Nationals! I mean what the hell!



My Fantasy baseball team is in dire straits at this point. My once seemingly untouchable pitching staff has completely imploded including the signing of Jason Marquis specifically for today's start against the miserable Nats and well, he sucked! I was really looking good only 7 days ago and pushing for the top spot again, but this past week has been an undescribable disaster.



I will be the first to say, "When will the Olympics end?" I know everyone enjoys the games, but really? After this weekend how many of them will anyone be able to name beside Phelps? Just End It!



Quick recap of the week via "Cheers" and "F-Offs"



F-Offs.



* Still working with idiots

*Olympic boredom

*Sports page at the Tulsa World (awful, just awful)

*Boom Goes the Dynamite Guy got a job in sports! (its with a local station in Waco, but still)

*Cubs 2-2 so far this week



Cheers.



*Only 1 more week until NCAA Football starts

*My Wife just went to Victoria's Secret

*Beer

Couple of Things.

WOO PIG!





The season tickets to Razorback football arrived, bad seats, good times.

We get a cupcake to start the season in Fayettenam, then go to the Rock for another. Then we go through a murderer's row of games going to Texass, home against Bama and Florida, then go to the Plains to meet up with Auburn. Good thing its supposed to be a down year or I'd be pissed about going 2-4 to start the season.

Practice started this week and few surprises to begin fall camp. Wright and Wright, Jarius (#4), out of Warren, AR, a fresman who was expected to redshirt has impressed the staff early and could press for playing time, as well as Tenarius (#43) also a freshman, from Memphis, TN, expected to get a look, but may actually be stating come gameday, especially with the recent arrests coming from the linebacking core.


Plus new uniforms for the Hogs this year:

A little bright for my taste, as well as the white stripes are questionable. But they dont seem to bother Malcolm Sheppard who may or may not of just eaten a freshman. He gets my vote for "Most likely to kill Tim Tebow."


Hey Chicago, What do you say?



The Cubs are still winning! They took two of three from the Astros and in my opinion got robbed in the first game because the umps decided to call the game due to a little lightning while they were down 0-2 in the eighth. Lance Berkman ran off the field, like a girl, and later we found out 'why he wanted his nickname changed from 'Fat Elvis' to the 'Big Puma.' Because he can't hold the King's jock!

So the Cubbies are 5 games ahead of the Who Crew in the Central with the St. Louis Fardinals coming to Wrigley the weekend.

The Knights of NEE!


I television commentary I would like to talk about Baseball Tonight. God's gift to TV and quite possibly the #3 reason for procrastination that I can think of at this moment. Someone told me the other day that the hated Steve Philips! Are you serious? In my opinion he's money. Come to find out the individual was a Yankee fan adn didn't like him because he said they were done back in May. As it turns out, maybe Steve was right.

Honestly, Baseball Tonight puts all other sports shows to shame. Give me Steve, Kruk, Buster, Timmy K., Peter Gammons, Karl Ravech and Harold Reynolds and I'll give you the best thing ever put on the air.

My wife and I agree that Eric Young is dreadful and we can't stand to hear his voice. But she had the gall to say that, "he is as bad as the fatty mullet guy." Fatty Mullet Guy?!?! John Kruk!?!? How do you not like Krukie!? He's dumb, funny and a real guy, he's great! So, we will have to agree to disagree on that!

Happy 30th Birthday, Marisa Miller

That means, if she's into younger men, Joppy still has a chance.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA9tJeUlzVI&eurl=http://www.barstoolsports.com/

3 Games Up!

BIG Z!

Awesome performance! How is he not seen as the best out there? He has been absolutely on fire in July! 3 wins, 2.30 era and a 0.91 whip! That's serious.

Plus the offense is coming out of a slump. Soriano is great, I get frustrated with him being the lead-off guy sometimes, but when he plays, they score. Rammy is playing much better in the last week and Lee is looking good, too. Heck, Fukudome even drove in 2 today!

Somehow ESPN decided this story didn't deserve anymore than a middle of the show highlight and dismiss it. It seems a little bigger than that, doesn't it?

Next best thing to Zambrano about tonight's game? DVR. I can now record every baseball game that's on TV, skip commercials and finish watching at the same time the game is over. Ran a couple of errands, got home around 8:15 and caught up with the game as it was ending at 9:40. DVR, man's best friend? Kidding, Bleu.

espn article about Tuesday nights game.... Couldn't say it better myself Gene Wojciechowski.

"Meanwhile, Zambrano was, well, Zambrano. The guy might be the most compelling pitcher in the big leagues. Who else do you know who pitches eight scoreless innings with nine strikeouts, singles home a run and breaks a bat over his left knee after botching a sacrifice bunt? In 21 innings this season, Zambrano has given up exactly one run against the Brewers."

Baseball Talk

The Cubs beat the Brewers last night! Derrek Lee, whom I recently traded for in Fantasy baseball for Chipper Jones, who just went on the DL, drove in the winning run on an opposite field double in the ninth and they added another run for the final score of 6-4. This puts the Cubs 2 games ahead of the Brewers in the NL Central race and also may turn the tide of momentum that has recently been heavily in the Brew Crew's favor.

Tonight Carlos Zambrano faces Ben Sheets in the most important game of the year since last night. Big Z has thrown 13 innings while allowing 1 earned run in 2 starts this year against Milwaukee, but has a no decision in both due to bullpen implosions. Sheets has gone 11.1 innings in 2 starts against the Cubs, giving up 3 earned runs with a win on April 29th when he gave up the 3 runs in 6 innings. Coincidentally, both were the opening day starters for their clubs on March 31st when neither allowed a run, while each went into the 7th, but the bullpens gave up a combined 7 runs with the Brewers winning in 10 innings. So it seems that the team to get into the opponents bullpen has the distinct advantage.

Teixeira an Angel

In other news, the Braves trade Mark Texiera to the Angels for first baseman Casey Kohman and minor league pitcher Stephen Marek. Marek has a 3.66 era in 34 relief appearances with the Double-A Arkansas Travelers, ex-employer of myself and rival of the Tulsa Drillers. Tex has a lower avg than Kotchman, but has hit 8 more hrs and driven in 24 more runs in an almost identical offense, stat wise. I think the trade may help out come post-season, but may not mean much short term as the adjustment factor will probably take a little for Mark. Luckily the Angels are the only Division leader that has successfully pulled away from the other teams they are competing with.

later

Bleus Quirks

First off, Bleu has an ear infection right now and hates the medicine he is taking.

Bleu Quirks

1) If Bleu is riding in a vehicle and turns down our street he will absolutely lose it until you roll the window down low enough or open a door for him to jump out and run home. He has even done this while the vehicle is in motion, up to 20 mphs!

2) Bleu has been run over 3 times suffering a broken leg, several broken ribs, punctured lung , and a completely freaked out dad on each occasion.

3) Bleu got kicked out of the Petco grooming salon for being "crazy." I took his sister, Lola and him in one time and expected a day off, when less than an hour later the groomer called me begging me to come pick him up. I've since taken him back once and they had written notes about him saying, "Don't take this dog he is crazy!"

4) Bleu is completely co-dependent on his sister. Turns out if you put them in the same kennel at Petco and let them cuddle he's not so bad. Bleu just needs to know where Lola is at all times.

5) Bleu loves to eat healthy. I've never known a dog who loved fruits and vegetables so much. He eats salad, grapes, corn, potatoes, strawberries are his favorite! It's very funny.

6) Bleu is the biggest Momma's boy ever! He may love me and know that I'm always going to be there, but there is nothing in the world better than getting to curl up next to Rachel in the bed, its really the number one thing he looks forward to. I wake up and by the time I'm in the shower he's on the bed. He would follow his Mom and Sister into a burning building without giving it a thought.

6 quirky things about me

I have been 'tagged' by my wife and this means I must tell 6 quirky things about myself. As this is only the second thing I have ever put on here, its not a bad way to start.

1) I dvr Charlie Rose every night and watch it for lunch the next day.

2) I enjoy historical documentaries and reading but I prefer to keep those things quiet, but I guess that is no longer the case.

3) I cannot stop reading a book once I've started. No matter how horrible it might be and I may even despise myself for reading it, I just can't leave it before its done.

4) I have been told I am the most pessimistic person in the world, although I talk myself into believing that the Cubs and Razorbacks always have a chance.

5) For some reason all my favorite professional sports teams are from Chicago. Its completely coincidental, but true. I used to love Walter Payton so the Bears are my NFL team, same thing with the Bulls and Michael Jordan. I used to watch Harry Caray everyday on WGN bc he was more enjoyable than Don Sutton and The TBS Braves announcers and that has developed into a slightly perverse obsession of mine, I'm pretty sure its not mentally or physically healthy the way I keep up with them. Honestly days during the summer are judged by whether or not the Cubs win.

6) This is definitely the most embarassing thing about me that only my wife and I know until now. Aside from my family and college/lifelong friends, the longest active relationship I have is a 6 year long term of athletes foot. My right foot has had a slight case for that long. If it gets bad I treat it but never to completion. I just enjoy having something to pick at; thats another thing I'm very fidgity, which leads to fingernail and cuticle picking and when I run out of those to pick at I dive into the athlete's foot.

So there, judge me, laugh, cry because now you all know.

Random Thoughts

-First of all I am extremely disappointed that The Wire's series finale was not on On-Demand. Yet, I think the build up over the next week will make the show even better.

*I really hope that Dukie gets out of the streets and doesn't end up a junkie.

*I hope Michael doesn't end up dead or in jail.

* I hope Chris ends up running everything from jail with Slim his outside guy.

*When will they come out with the Movie, 3 years?

Anyway I can't spend the time to explain my interest in this show. Except that it is the best show I've ever seen.

-The Razorbacks play Ole Miss tonight and it could put them in the Tournament if they win another road game, but I just don't feel very confident at all in them. I've been following them since the late 80's with great fervor, but I don't really feel anything for this team.

Reasons

-They haven't been very good in like 10 years.
-I don't look up to the players and don't have any connection to them now that I don't go to school or live in Fayetteville.
-I've lived in Tulsa for 3 years and 2 years ago the local stations stopped carrying the local broadcasts.
-John Pelphrey is still a kentucky Wildcat to me and I actually miss Nolan Richardson.
-I don't have enough time to play basketball as much as I would like, thus losing interest in the sport as a whole.
