Chicago owns New Orleans

Not only have my beloved Bears knocked the Saints out of post season action three years in a row, but we surpassed the Big Easy in corruption!!!!!
How about dem apples???
Okay, so the corruption is not something to brag about and I really have nothing against the Saints.
Quick note, as the heat gets pressed on obambi's pit bull emanuel, I do have to side with him on not taking questions at his child's school function. The press should be somewhat respectful and not act as paparazzi. With that being said, once he is not around his children, you may attack at will with extreme prejudice. Nothing personal, but republicans would get the same treatment.

arghhh

Cubs lost, life goes on.

Another Reason He's a Wanker

Scott: If the Cubs and the White Sox both make it to the World Series?
Obama: I would be going.
Scott: Who would you root for?
Obama: Oh, that's easy. White Sox. I'm not one of these fair weather fans. You go to Wrigley Field, you have a beer, beautiful people up there. People aren't watching the game. It's not serious. White Sox, that's baseball. Southside.

I wonder if he raised both hands when said "Sooouutsieede!" wearing a wifebeater and his sox hat sideways. That is how the chosen one rolls.

This jerk is no Marissa Miller.

Cubs fan don't know baseball. This will come back to haunt you.

Notes for today

The Cubs swept the dirty southsiders at home this weekend. Always a good thing. We get Marissa Miller to throw out the first pitch, even though Meathead did Sunday night's game.

And speaking of ugly or not, here is a picture of Gus. Yes, he is missing a leg and and an eye.

Finally, Rest In Peace George Carlin, a funny man.

As a matter of principle, I never attend the first annual anything.

Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck.

I think it's the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately.

I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

I'm not concerned about all hell breaking loose, but that a PART of hell will break loose... it'll be much harder to detect.

If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.

If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted?

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

Well, if crime fighters fight crime and fire fighters fight fire, what do freedom fighters fight? They never mention that part to us, do they?

When someone asks you, A penny for your thoughts, and you put your two cents in, what happens to the other penny?

I don't have hobbies; hobbies cost money. Interests are quite free.

And speaking of special interests, looks like Obama has friends in ethanol biz. Another mark in the hypocrisy category

Mr. Obama is running as a reformer who is seeking to reduce the influence of special interests. But like any other politician, he has powerful constituencies that help shape his views. And when it comes to domestic ethanol, almost all of which is made from corn, he also has advisers and prominent supporters with close ties to the industry at a time when energy policy is a point of sharp contrast between the parties and their presidential candidates.

And he is a friggin' sox fan. Can you think of a better reason not to vote for the schmuck? I don't care if he is a Bears fan. I bet he'd throw them under the bus like his many other ...

Rove v. Kim Jong-il v. Al Jaffe v. a friggin' goat

This is going to be an ongoing post today. If I see something I like, I'll add to it like a good stew.

First, some deviled ham:



Here you go liberals, he admits he is the Dark Lord. You have the evidence to prosecute.

Then some nut:
This spirit of Stalin lives in North Korea by the name of Kim Jong-il. A reporter from the Sun wrote a honest piece on life there and the fear that smothers the people.

Kim, 67, is just 5ft 3in and compensates with platform shoes, bouffant hair – and tyrannical rule. In his dictator-chic safari suits and dark-rimmed glasses, James Bond fan Kim is a classic Dr Evil-style despot.
He would be laughable but for his nuclear threats and staggering inhumanity shown to his people. Aid agencies estimate that up to two million people have died since the mid1990s because of food shortages.
While millions of North Koreans starved on a diet of seaweed, cabbage stalks and grass, Kim imported two Italian chefs to cook him pizzas as he guzzled brandy.

Then a touch comedy:

The NYT has an interactive piece that is funnier than their profits. If you have the same fond memories of the Mad Magazine Fold-ins at the end of the comic, here you go. Of course I didn't realize how much I may disagree with some of the politics, but still worth the visit.

To wrap this up, the Cubs start their season today.

Obob Frustrated

the Cubs got swept by the Marlins. This close to the playoffs and I have to hope the Padres can kill off the Brewers. I hope the Padres believe in the 18th Amendment. But we have Bill Murray as a Cubs fan:

Chicago began the day with a two-game lead over second-place Milwaukee. Murray said he's so eager to root the Cubs to a division title that he may fly to Cincinnati for their final regular-season series this weekend.
"I've never been to Cincinnati, and I was trying to keep that record intact," Murray said. "But I may have to go."
Some say the Cubs wouldn't be the same lovable team if they won the World Series, a notion Murray dismissed.
"I don't accept that," he said. "That's sick thinking. You've got to watch out for people like that."

my girls got creamed by the Brazilians. Either way, I am always proud of them because the play like they have a pair.

the Bears will be missing five starters on defense Sunday against the Lions. And Sexy Rexy got the hook. And the Packers are undefeated so thus, we get media man love of Brett Farvaraar from the media. It is more grotesque then Helen Thomas yearning for Bill Clinton. I was going to put the birth control inducing picture of her and Billy, but this was far more immature.

All in the Family

One of my few pleasures in life is playing soccer on Sunday. It's an adult rec league in Westfield where I grew up playing. Our team has players of various skills from some whom never kicked a ball to those who played semi-pro. The cool part is my sister, brother and father play. My mom did until she had career ending knee replacement surgery in the off-season at age 62. One year she broke her nose playing indoor.

The point of this little post is, do things with your family. When this team started, my little brother was 11. He turns 21 next year and we need the speed. It helps he plays for Purdue as well.

Quick notes with the great sports trifecta Sunday night:

NFL: Yes it was preseason, but the wood was laid by the Steelers D

MLS: FC Toronto played the Galaxy minus the $250 million dollar man who looked great in a Hugo Boss suit, but would have looked better in uniform.

MLB: Kerry Wood pitched ... again Kerry Wood pitched. And he finished the inning with a wicked slider that evoked fond memories. The thunderous applause from the Cub Nation was well deserved.

I'll get to the blinding lunacy of Obama later. Invade Pakistan.

Moron.

Go Cubs
