Week 4 Recap

Black Market Dynamite just had its photo shoot at the hangar where the Knicks keep their private jet. They have a really nice plane. The mechanics let us go inside, they put us on the wing, they even started it up and rolled it out of the hangar for us. It pretty much ruled. Stay tuned.

Steelers didn't lose. Huzzah.

Zandar: 11-3
Metal-Head: 10-4
FOS: 10-4
Dr. Mindbender: 8-6

Faggregate vs. ESPN:

Zandar: 45-15
FOS: 42-18
Metal-Head: 40-20
Schlereth: 40-20
Jaworski: 39-21
Hoge: 38-22
Salisbury: 37-23
Golic: 37-23
Dr. Mindbender: 35-25
Allen: 35-25
Theismann: 32-24

By the way, for those who may not have watched this weeks' MNF, the network threw the following conversation piece into the moribund announcer booth: Who's the best NFL player to have come from Mississippi: Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, or Brett Favre? (stop giggling. wait, wait...) So Tirico hemms and haws for a moment, very diplomatically, and then says "Rice, then Payton, then Favre." And then Chicken Wing Theismann brilliant chips in his two cents, with little hesitation: "Rice, then Favre, then Payton." At that moment, you could see Tony Kornheiser flinch, like he wanted to choke him, but managed to stop himself and regain composure. I really hope that Wilbon held his nuts to the fire for not breaking Theismann's leg again. But no, Kornheiser would never attack a guy he has to call a game with every monday, and he would never defend such an asinine position. Probably they came to an agreement where Wilbon promises not to bring it up and gets paid $5,000 more every week until Favre retires.

Don't dis Tony K! He's great. One of the few sportswrters who genuinely gets laughs.


Walter Payton is great. But he might nto be the best runnign back of all time. That's tough to argue. Rice is the best recevier of all time, hands down. Favre is just a popular QB.

I would break theisman's leg again, and not just for this, mainly because he's such a terrible announcer. I love reading sports guy and having him think of roundabout ways (since he's also employed by ESPN and this unable to directly complain) to consistently trash Theisman's skills. He's made it clear what everyone knows : LT did the world both a favor and a huge injustice (because it made him retire and get in the broadcast booth).

From ESPN:

"The 16,000 tickets for Thursday's 76ers exhibition game against host Winterthur Barcelona at the Palau Sant Jordi sold out quicker than they did when prodigal son Pau Gasol and his Memphis Grizzlies played there three years ago. Iverson must have lost count of the number of times he has been told by Spanish media members that he is the nation's favorite NBA star."


You hear that?

Kornheiser? Funny? Funny looking maybe. I fucking Hate him and his stupid PTI show. He is ruining Monday Night Football. ESPN's coverage is the worst ever. I'd rather sit through Madden's senile obviousness than Kornheiser's stupid shitty one-liners, muskrat face and more commercials and mid-game interviews that have nothing to do with the game. Last week's coverage was an attrocity.

We're in a tight spot!

A very tight spot!

Like, tighter than tight!

You got all, like, 60 tracks? 61 I think? Awesome. Enjoy that sh*t.

I will now eat these tic-tacs that I stole from the Knicks plane in a very leisurely manner, one at a time.
