random thoughts

When did I turn 80 years old? I was all pumped up to watch the Laker game last night and ended up falling asleep instead. Blah.
I’m annoyed that the smelly Rays won last night. I wanted the Phillies to sweep. I don’t have any actual affinity for the Phillies, I just hate the Rays.
Was I smoking crack Monday night or did the Patriots really demolish the Broncos? I was shocked and awed by the whole thing. I know the Broncos defense sucks, but Cutler is usually an offensive juggernaut. Yay for the win either way. I’ll take them any way I can get them.
Does it really matter where Tom Brady gets his poor mangled up knee worked on? Also, I love it when ESPN reports on a story for two days and then has to report on how the report is being denied. It’s good times.

I’m excited for the first Celtics game of the season. It’ll be awesome to see the new banner and the guys get their rings. I just hope they don’t lose their focus because of it (like the Heat did against the Bulls the season following their championship run).
Rumors are that the Dodgers are planning to offer Mannywood a 2-year 27.5 million dollar contract. He wanted a 4-5 year contract so I imagine in order for this to work, they’ll have to meet him halfway at 3. If that happens and he stays in LA, I will be bummed. I was really hoping he would sign with the Yankees so I could spend the next few years booing him heartily and shaking my fist at the TV.
Just heard about Isiah Thomas. If the story is true, I feel honestly sad for the guy. Somehow though, I feel like it’s going to end up being like T.O. where his publicist is going to come out and tell us how many millions of reasons Isiah has to live.
