I find it pretty funny...

…that the logo for “DillDomains” is a radio-broadcasting pickle that looks very much like Rush Limbaugh…

I had to take a second look to make sure it was . . .

in fact . . . how you interpreted it.

Holy fuck that’s funny!

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

I need to get that t-shirt for . . .

my brother-in-law, the die-hard Packers fan of the family.

I guarantee there will be a bunch of those in the NY/NJ Bi-State Death Zone, too.

Not only can you find the NY shirt you sought, but also plenty of other designs. Living near Green Bay (Oshkosh), we’ve been seeing these for months.

1990 called...

… some guy named Dibble (Dribble? Tribble? Flibble?) says that rasslin’ stole that whole “Nasty Boys” thing from baseball.

Better yet...

Janet Jackson (Ms. Jackson if you’re nasty!) called and the subpoena from her attorneys is in the mail.

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Paul McCartney: We`re going to start a campaign to stamp out Detroit.

Let’s hope that the envelope is properly sealed, and that the post office doesn’t employ any Timberlake wannabes.

Norm Charlton and Randy Myers . . .

are still panhandling under that moniker.

I have no physical proof, but at this point you can take my word for it, right?

TSN is starting to lose me. I know they are the newsbreakers in the NHL for the most part , but their coverage is suspect lately. I also know they are canadian but their coverage of the NHL should cover the non Canadian teams more regularly.

All their coverage of Bassille is ridiculous.

Their coverage of the hudler KHL signing was just terrible, totally sensationalization. The IIHF pretty much told the Redwings how it would go down like two weeks after it happened. They stretched it out more than a month of coverage.

Enough ranting, it’s Friday and I need to be drunk.
