Oh man, a 5 hour +, 14 inning Phillies game will really take your mind off things. And it's definitely good when they pull it out. Work doesn't seem so bad right now.
And just who was that guy they showed every 2 minutes? He's pretty famous. Someone should find him on My Space.
Just caught up with the last 2 episodes of Nip/Tuck and I have to say, I don't know why the hell I watch this show. It makes me sick, drives me insane and I should just stop watching. But I can't. 3rd season and every episode is still like a bad car wreck that I can't seem to turn away from. Sean's about to have a handicapped baby and he's cheating on Julia? Christian might be gay? What the hell is going on. And now there's more man ass than ever before. What happened to all the hot 90% naked girls? I just caught more naked girl on a fast forwarded Victoria's Secret commercial than I saw during the whole 3rd episode. Kimber's only been around for like 5 minutes in 1 episode out of the first 3 episodes. That's just disgraceful. Well except for the recent increase in male nudity, it's the same old show I guess. It was just easier to swallow the train wreck they call lives while looking at naked chicks. This show is great. I hate it.
Looks like I get to keep my job a little while longer. I've now gotten all the certifications I need to not get fired in November. I think I'll roll into work tomorrow kinda like this. Until they need me to work on Saturday. Yeeeaaaaaaah.

Dan the Bug Man finally came today and sprayed around the inside and outside of the house 2 times. He might even come back tomorrow and do it again just in case. You know what that means? I can finally go to the kitchen at night to get a drink of water without putting my shoes on, but only after checking them for scorpions, when I'm dying of thirst. No more scorpions! Oh, and dead bugs.
Whammy!

3 scorpions today. 1 this morning in the house, 1 this morning outside and 1 tonight in the house. I got so pissed at that last one I ripped him to shreds. He'll never look at a Swiffer sweeper the same way again. I'm going to work tomorrow... if I survive the night... and never coming back.
How come I never know who the guy is that killed that other guy so that I can get some of this reward money that the man is always telling me about? Doesn't seem so fair. I want some of that damn money.
Oh man, this interview with Justin Timberlake on Letterman is great. Best interview I can remember. I most certainly have to find this on YouTube tomorrow. Oh man I wish I was retired. Then I could watch this stuff all the time. Life would be so great. I'm hungry.

Mondays and Tuesdays are always better after a good fantasy weekend. Unfortunately for me, I had a pathetic weekend. Luckily for me, I had the Eagles game. But that's not what this column is for. So I'll start with the first game of the weekend with guys on my team. A guy; Chris Chambers. How did you drop that pass? It hit you in the hands in the endzone. It was the only good pass from Culpepper all night. You're only gonna get a few of them a game, you gotta make that catch. Now for the biggest flop of the weekend? Jake Plummer. Man, oh, man, Jake. This year I decided to take players I didn't like, hate even, if it would help me in fantasy. Don't let it happen again. ESPN says it was because you were pressured most of the game because your line wasn't doing too great for you, but don't make me hate you anymore than I already do. Other than that, the rest of my team didn't show up either, but no less than most of the players in the league. Some bombed, however most did alright, just didn't find the endzone. However, big performances for top fantasy players were just few and far between on Sunday. I mean when Kevin Jones gets me more points than Sean Alexander woulda gotten me, there's just not much to say. Only a few stars that should have, actually shone this weekend which just makes for a pretty boring fantasy weekend. I'm ready to fast forward to next week. My team just looks too good on paper to do what it did this weekend.
Top 5 after week 1:
All I wanted was a stinkin glass of water before I went to bed. I thought the only problem that would arise from that was me having to wake up and take a leak in a few hours like every other night since I became an old man. Instead I get my drink, go to lock the front door and almost get into fisticuffs with a deadly lethal scorpion with a rocket laser stinger. At first I thought it was a cricket or something so I turned the light on and it was like a foot away from my foot and it curled its tail up and I swear it growled at me. Like a lion or something. I have already blanked out the incident completely in my mind to be locked away forever however if I recall, it looked something like the Arizona Bark Scorpion, also known as the Arizona deadly scorpion, only 1000 times larger. Kinda the size of the Rock and all CGI like. Nah, it was kinda small, but my mom woke up from all of my girly like screaming, swooped in and slayed the beast. You know how I know you're gay? Dude, shut up. She's killed like 4 scorpions now and that was the first one I've even seen alive. What would you guys have to read every... 4 or 5 days... if I died from a scorpion bite. Yeah, yeah, the odds of a human dying from a deadly scorpion bite is pretty low this day and age, especially for a 6 foot 1, 200 pound stud like me with a rocket laser arm, but still. I need to make it to see the Eagles tomorrow. An Eagle would kick the crap out of a scorpion, it wouldn't even be funny. Who's laughing now scorpion. It's late. I'm going to bed. If I can sleep now.
For the 2nd year in a row, Terententen brings you the most hallowed analytical information in the entire world of sports, TerenTenTen's... NFL 2006 Expert Picks. I'm not exactly sure how well we did last year compared to the experts, however I am sure it was better if not only for the reason that they're retards who I don't even think watch football. Once again, enjoy the season.
Tomorrow is the first Nip/Tuck Tuesday of the season. That my friends is awesome. This week in general is awesome. Football starts on Thursday which is also a pay day, the WNBA won't get in the way of good programming after Saturday, the Eagles play on Sunday and then there's hours more football on Sunday and Monday, then to top it off, I have off Monday and Tuesday. There's lots of stuff to look forward to, probably so much, I'm forgetting a lot of it. Here's a picture of Kimber. You're welcome.

I was trying to go to sleep last night when I heard the crappy news about Steve Irwin. Such a stupid freak accident. It wouldn't have been a freak accident if he was eaten by a mighty croc, but a stupid sting ray? To play around with an animal who can deliver a 3000psi bite only to get killed by a fish? A damn fish. I say we all start eating as much seafood as we can now. Get back at those stupid fish for taking what was one hell of a charasmatic guy. What a shame. The people over at WWTDD? said it best with, "A stingray? A damn stingray? This dude spent 40 hours a day poking dinosaurs with sticks and he gets it from a damn stingray? They're supposed to sting and ray things, not impale people who entertain me. They're damn fish, not Jason. You're not funny Irony. This is why everybody hates you." But nobody hated you Crocodile Hunter. Nobody hated you. I'll leave you all with a picture of Steve with the greatest of all animals. And although his wife seems nice on TV, I'm not talking about her.

Yesterday I saw Invincible and it was glorious. Right from the intro, perfectly set to music from Philly's own Jim Croce, you watched the people and just thought about home. Sure it was the 70s but it didn't change that much from when I was growing up. Moreso than in any Philadelphia movie, I really felt like they were my people in the stands, my people walking the streets, even the houses, the way of life, and hell, even the same old Eagles. But they're our Eagles and throughout the movie there was always hope. Hope that Vince would make the team and hope that the Eagles would win and someday turn this thing around. It wasn't a real big football movie like Any Given Sunday and it wasn't a real big underdog movie like Rudy but it found a good place for itself and certainly hit the spot. Mark Wahlberg played a great athlete and he played an even better blue collar guy. I just really liked everything about the movie. The whole cast, the fact it's set in Philadelphia and also that it's about the best football team in all of the land.
Alright, 1 hour and 26 minutes later and it's all done. Good luck.
Oh I can't leave it like that. So we had a good turnout. And we already had a move. I may have to put a cap on this league. Anyway, I think we actually had 80%-90% which is just outstanding. So many people talking I didn't even know that many people showed. There was so much build up for this draft it was insane. I guess we'll just have to see how it goes. I don't think this league'll let us down though. It should be a fun year. And with only 1 draft league and gridiron, I may just be able to bring back my fantasy rant. I know some will be excited for that. Almost as excited as the actual season starting. What time is it? GAME TIME HUH!!!
I'll post my team later but for now I gotta go pick out tile and cabinets.
Let's go State!
