So when did MNF become TMF? (Tuesday Morning Football)

Or in the case of many football widows and widowers after an opening weekend that started Thursday – Too much football?

–

San Diego-Kansas City. In Kansas City in the rain. 120a finish on the East Coast. And they were only six yards away from overtime.

–
Coach Rex Ryan has referred to the “Soon-to-be-Super-Bowl-Champion” New York Jets. Anyone want to lay odds on what happens first? The Jets winning another Super Bowl or Brett Favre retiring?

–
All this money Meg Whitman is spending to try to become governor of California…. Maybe instead of ads, she’d have better luck if she spent the money to buy and improve the 49ers or Raiders.

–
And regarding those ads, Whitman is spending millions on one anti-Jerry Brown ad focused on a claim Bill Clinton made in a 1992 televised debate. Now, I voted for Clinton twice, but if Whitman had paid any attention to politics in the past, she might have realized that as far as telling the truth in front of a camera, Bill is hardly an “un-impeachable source.”

This may be an unpopular position amongst women, and don’t get me wrong, I’m not defending neanderthals (New York Jets). But Ines Sainz would project a more professional image for a sports reporter by not wearing skintight jeans and halter tops to work.

–
On the other hand, the incident was the most embarassing thing to happen to the Jets this week, until they actually played a game.
–

The silver lining of the Ines Sainz story, if a member of the media has to wear skintight jeans on the sidelines, at least it’s not John Madden.

–
I’m not a USC fan by any means, but…

Making Reggie Bush out to be the only Heisman winner who ever took money and gifts in college feels a lot like making Barry Bonds out to be the only home run hitter who ever used performance enhancing drugs.

–
Love this story from the Los Angeles Times. Apparently after UCLA’s 35-0 loss to Stanford, coach Rick Neuheisel still tried to give his post-game pep talk to fans left in the stands. Not only was he booed, one fan yelled “Stop talking and win a game.”

–
Kentucky senator Mitch McConnell said that President Obama’s plan to eliminate tax cuts for those in the highest brackets would hurt “the people who’ve been hit hardest by this recession.” Indeed, some of them have had to fly commercial, or horror of horrors, coach.

–
And how can I top this, Hans Zieger, a candidate for the state legislature in Washington wrote this for a conservative website (which has now been picked up by the SF Chronicle and a number of other sites.)

It’s enough to make you toss your cookies.

“One might wonder why the Girl Scouts have been spared the painful attacks that have been launched upon the Boy Scouts by the Left in recent years. The reasons are simple: the Girl Scouts allow homosexuals and atheists to join their ranks, and they have become a pro-abortion, feminist training corps. … If the Girl Scouts of America can’t get back to teaching real character, perhaps it will be time to look for our cookies elsewhere.”
