- Ole Miss at South Carolina is tonight. Sounds good. I remember one year all of the Thursday night games were WAC or Mountain West or some crap. I’m glad they’ve got some good ones this year.
- When you order online with Domino’s, the “Domino’s Tracker” gives you status updates as your order is taken, prepared, packaged, and so forth. So last night, I saw “Jason double-checked your order for deliciousness at 6:34 pm.” Now doesn’t that sound like he tasted it? How else can you “check” for “deliciousness”?
- “A post-American speech by our first post-American president.” Sheesh, it’s like every week’s a year with this guy. Wish it was September 2010.
- Let’s have a gander at a class full of tykes being taught a song and dance routine praising Barack Obama. Watch the video, and then imagine a similar routine five years ago with George W. Bush as the object of affection. Outrage (and justified, at that)? Oh, yes. All of the networks, wall to wall, would run this footage. Where is it now? What’s the difference?
- We’re a couple of weeks out from Sonic Boom‘s official release. It’s all over out there to download. I haven’t. I won’t. I think that’s like opening and then rewrapping a Christmas present.
- I’m sure it’s been out there to know, but I didn’t know all of this about University of Miami football coach Randy Shannon. Wow.
- Water on dear Luna? Looking more likely all the time.

What? No word on dirty, jobless anarchists protesting G20 in Pittsburgh? I’m sure all was well and good when they busted up Starbucks in Seattle, but wreck the wrong place in Pitt and you might find some hackey-sacks and green bandanas floating in the Monongahela.
I for one like seeing “The U” back and have even more appreciation after reading about Coach Shannon. Now if they can only get Lamar Thomas back cause he knows “You don’t come into the OB playing that stuff.”
And to think that so many of us were blowing the Anointed One’s speech all out of proportion…. Tsk tsk.
Not a bad game tonight. But any night with football is better than one without.
Rolllllll Gamecock!
Bo, tell me you didn’t find yourself saying, “Bama will murder both of these teams” during that game.
J. Bolton hit it right on the head. Saw him on Greta a night or two ago. Of course, I still think of Yosemite Sam every time I see him
But, back to business, I am so freakin’ tired of PrezO apologizing for every damn thing we have ever done. WTF is it with this guy? Won’t he PLEASE just shut the F up? I for one believe we live in a pretty damn fine place and I am so fed up with the Apology Tour. I’m afraid we are about to be in a world of hurt. To paraphrase Pyle: “We are… In a world…of SHIT.”
BamaDan: “You will get your behind kicked!”
kemtee, BamaDan: I was more thinking “man, I’m glad I picked South Carolina in my pool.”
Kudos to their defense. They definitely overachieved.
Terri: The One was dealt a big steaming pile of acute foreign policy to deal with today. I’m waiting to see how the nuclear weapons lab at Qom is the fault of the absolutely-rotten-until-nine-months-ago United States too.
Oh, didn’t you hear on MSNBC that Pres. Obama “discovered” this second facility in Iran???? I kid you not. I mean, they told everyone about it, for God’s sake.
