Post Pro Bowl..

February 10, 2008

So the NFC beat the AFC on Sunday in a meaningless game played in beautiful weather.

In other words, just like a typical Miami Dolphins home game.

With a great game including a late 6 yard touchdown run, rookie Adrian Peterson narrowly won the MVP award – a red Cadillac –  over Terrell Owens.     No confirmation yet on the rumor that a teary eyed T.O. later said “Thats my car, man.”

Back to politics.  The media reports that many older baby boomers prefer Hillary Clinton over Barack Obama, perhaps because they grew up accustomed to the polarizing politics of the 60s.

If that were true, how come the surviving members of the Grateful Dead reunited for a benefit concert for Obama? 

Of course, it is quite possible that none of them remember the 60s.

Rocket man redux

Many have questioned Brian McNamee, Roger Clemens’ ex-trainer would have kept all those items from his medical bag – syringes, bloody gauze pads, and drug vials.  When he had already testified under oath that Clemens was guilty of using steroids.  

But presumably he knew – without that kit, they might acquit.

If Roger keeps up the public statements and denials at his current pace, we may soon be longing for the steroid issue to refocus on someone with the low key dignity of Barry Bonds.
