The Blues won the Stanley Cup on NHL 09 today. It was a good time. I enjoyed seeing CGI Gary Bettman give the cup to CGI Eric Brewer. So life-like the two of them.

I'd forgotten about Vs's exclusivity rights...

I thought that they only applied to games on Mondays last year – did they up it to Monday and Tuesday?

God, they need to find a different network.

By the way, anyone hear that King Oxycontin is apparently teaming up with our own CheckMaster on a Rams bid? How fucking enthralling THAT oughta be . . . chalk this up as reason #5,236 why I’m glad I’m a Broncos fan.

Uggghhh.

Why in the world… Didn’t Condi once say a long time ago that she’d like to be GM or president of a team? Wonder if she has an extra $20 stowed away… I’d way rather have her than Rush.

I didn’t even realize that he was a football fan, but then again, I haven’t listened to him for about 10 years.
