• Ortiz !
  The Sox are not going out like punks! No no that wouldn't be right for their idiom. They must fuck up more.... dramatically. Last night's game was so long that even though I was forced to leave the house in the 10th inning in order to accompany Daisy to Auto Zone, I still managed to be in front of a TV in time to see the end. After back to back extra inning games, the pitching staff is totally demolished. We're praying for rain tonight.


• Time to say it. The Saints are the worst team in the NFL. One more week to go until the bye. Will Tom Benson find time during his wedding to start firing people? Stay tuned.


• Quote of the week: Saints worthless safety, Tebucky Jones, is so convinced that his roughing the passer penalty which set up one of the Vikings many touchdowns Sunday night was a missed call that he is considering legal action if the league fines him. "Once you get that penalty, they'll fine you," he said. "If they do, I'm going to bring it to the courts. Not the NFL court, the higher courts."

Note: Once again, I was regretfully unable to attend Sunday's Saints home game.
