Miscellaneous thoughts

First of all let's talk football. WAIT, DON'T LEAVE! We'll get to some other stuff shortly. Pretty crappy football weekend. BYU lost a game they really could have won. They held UCLA in check for all of the second half except the final 2 minutes of the game. They had rallied from being down 20-0 and were within 3. Then they fumbled and that was that. They couldn't do anything in the 4th quarter.
Utah State, well, they lost again. Not much else to say about that. Michigan should give up football after a blowout loss to Oregon at home. Two home games, two embarrassing losses. Oregon is a decent team, but after Michigan's humiliating loss to Appalachian State, they should have been ready to destroy anyone. They weren't. Overall, there were a lot of games that didn't go the way I would have liked, but some did. It's always good to see Utah lose, Notre Dame lose, and Georgia Tech win.
And the Raiders. They choked the game away in the 4th quarter, just like they did so often last year. Pathetic.
OK, that's it for football today. Now on to other stuff. Anyone see the clip of an obviously drunk or high (or both) Britney Spears at the MTV video awards? She stumbles around, is a beat or two behind the music, forgets to even try to lip-sinc at times, and just looks like a pathetic loser trying to be sexy. She must have thought this would be the huge night that began her comeback started. She is a joke. The only question is who will end up dead first, her or Lindsay Lohan? Those two are on the fast track to an early death due to substance abuse and reckless behavior.
Hopefully, Paris Hilton will be in the car with them.
And yet another shameful Disney star. The nice, supposedly wholesome star of the High School Musical movies has a nude picture floating around. First of all, when you are a star at all don't you even try to make sure that doesn't get out? Second, who doesn't think it was the boyfriend's (also in the HSM movies) fault? You know he got it and was showing off to a friend who then leaked it. Third, isn't it sad how sluttly these girls are? Disney is like a brothel. Check out the list of stellar people that have emerged from there: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Lindsay Lohan, Justin Timberlake (forever linked with the Janet Jackson incident), and now this new girl. Did I forget any? What morals and high standards these individuals exude. Pretty sad when you have to put the parent block on the Disney channel.
Kanye West threw a tantrum because he didn't win anything at the MTV awards show. This follows the tantrum he threw a few months ago after not winning on a British awards show. Maybe he should get a clue. Face it Kanye, you suck. The jackass always pulls the race card too. This is the same idiot who said that George Bush hates black people. I know that I don't need to point out that his two Sec.s of State were black. Which is two more than the beloved Clinton had even though he is credited with being such a supporter of blacks. Can people be any dumber than to fall for the BS that the Clintons promote about themselves? These are two of the most despicable people alive. I fear for the country if Hillary gets elected.
Well, didn't mean for this to get all political, although I will be glad to share my wisdom in the future.

So Steve,
HOW BOUT THOSE DODGERS NOW!!!!!
The grasp for the wild card seems to be slipping due to the Giant’s wins. I was able to revel in the glorious first win and shake my head at Saturday's loss (both at my dad’s expense, of course). It was a good weekend as we wound down Lombard Street and towered over SF viewing the sinful city from Coit Tower. Did you know it was named after a chick? I always thought it was a phallic symbol for the dominant sexual preference of the town? Just kidding man. Love the blog

Is that you, Greg? Daring to come in here with Giants crap? The Dodgers will still finish ahead of Barry Roids Bond and the cronies. Maybe the next SF earthquake will dump PacBell Park in the bay. Of course I don't want anyone hurt, so it'll have to be in the offseason. GIANTS SUCK!!!!!!!!

The HSM thing is a publicity stunt in a way. She's trying to get out of doing disney stuff anymore. I have a hard time believing that anybody is really that stupid....except for Paris. She really is that stupid and the porn thing shooting her into fame is a failure on the part of all americans allowing this incident to make her famous. Oh and no comments on football or any other sports. This is obviously Jeff.

I have been a life-long Raiders fan, and used to be proud of it. I became a fan back in the early 80's when the Raiders were a feared football team. Now they are a laughing stock and I'm ashamed to admit I'm still a fan. However, I have found a new team to cheer for - the Bengals. They used to be a laughing stock and now are a formidable opponent. So I'll be a Bengals fan until the Raiders get their act together and can learn to play respectable football again.

GO BENGALS!!!

Oh Latoya. What a jokester. Mark, come on, man. They are the BENGALS. You know the team that had half their team arrested. The team that will never win it all, ever. There has got to be a better choice than that. Chargers, maybe? I know they are Raider rivals, but I've always thought they were kind of cool. Mainly because they were never much of a threat to the Raiders like the Chiefs and Broncos.

Steve,

You point out that half of the Bengals have been arrested - that's exactly the point. The Raiders used to be a bunch of thugs that knew how to play good, hard football. Nobody liked playing them because they were a bunch of punks, and they were a good football team. They're now a bunch of pansies and they suck.

The Bengals are a bunch of thugs, and at least offensively they're good. They are the new Raiders for the new millenium.

I guess it was inevitable that the Raiders would become what they are today. It was foretold back when Seragusa cheap shotted Gannon, knocking him out of the game and there was no retaliation from the Raiders. Back in the day the Ravens QB would have been targeted, but with today's Raiders nothing happened.
