Sometimes this blog is a little off the cuff, and quite honestly, I think that this post reminds me of the best damn calculus teacher at the boat school. Everyday is a Tuesday in this barren land; however, today is Monday. Basically, I want to crawl up in the fetal position and cry my eyes out (like baby Kenny) b/c of the precarious situation "my" teams have placed me in. You know, ok, I get it ... My Padres just aren't good enough, the Saints are back to paper bagging it, Tony Stewart didn't seem to drive inspired in Dover, and Navy Football is quite pedestrian. And, if that wasn't enough, I am going to have to listen to all the crap about how great the Steelers are playing. Duane, I just don't want to hear it - just remember your team had a starting quarterback that got caught by the po-po for doing the same thing as the Idaho Senator. Nice, very nice.
Time continues to move slowly. I feel like I am in the last two minutes of a football game that somehow takes an hour to play out. Still no word from the Navy brass in Baghdad on my departure - I'll believe it when I see it. For some reason, they've gotten into quite the habit of over promising and under delivering.
But if you want to talk about results, the entire Moody family gets "mad props." Colleen, Jack and Meg, and Granny Moody came through with a total of three boxes full of goodies. Inside them were Monsters ... and they now have a new flavor - Java. Basically, it is liquid crack and
just utterly awesome.
At any rate, Go Padres, 7 games left ... figure we need a minimum of 5 to make it work.

Po-Po, where did you learn that slang from?
As much as you swear by those Monsters, Geoff, I am tempted to try one or two myself, but I've been reluctant. I have two concerns ... First, I drink enough coffee now that any additional stimulus may send me over the edge. Second, even under current conditions I can't slow my back swing down enough to hit a straight ball off the tee.
Correction... former quarterback.
And remember, you called down the thunder...
But, I do thank you for noting that the Steelers are 3-0, having precisely 3 more wins than the Saints... The Steelers are winning and the Saints are losing... seems like a return to normalcy to me...
But LSU is doing well... too bad they will end up having to play and beat #3 Florida twice not to mention win every other game to go to the BCS Championship.
GO STEELERS!!!
P.S. The Steelers are 3-0.
P.S.S. Lendale White had more all-purpose yards than did Reggie Bush last night, and Lendale didn't even have a catch nor did he have a punt return... go Reggie!
To add insult to injury...
Deuce is out for the season with a torn ACL.
as a fellow 'burgh fan, i must also point out that of all slash's failings, the rumours of his solicitation were nothing compared to his simply not living up to the hype.
our schedule feels a bit soft to me so far... i think the true test will come later in the season when we finally face the ravens, bengals, and patriots. i'll save most of my smack-talking until we're truly proven against them.
but, yeah: 3-0. sukkit!
This is going is going to be a tough series for the Padres. Time for a "gut check"
