Bowls and bowled over.
Well, today’s game against the Buffalo Bills is likely to result in Brett Favre’s fewest interceptions of the season, since he was knocked out of the game after his first pass. (Which was, curiously enough, intercepted.)
–
Many in the media are questioning whether the Vikings stuck with Brad Childress too long, with interim coach Leslie Frazier now 2-0. Although with today’s 38-14 win over the Bills after Brett Favre was knocked out early, maybe Childress isn’t the only one Minnesota has stuck with too long.

Giants 31, Redskins 7. Well, as long as Dan Snyder is around, Barack Obama never has to worry about being the most unpopular man in Washington.

Owner Jed York predicted the 49ers would make the playoffs this year. Playoffs? San Francisco isn’t even likely to end up with a record that would make them NCAA bowl eligible.
–
NFL union has told players to prepare for a lockout. If so, Stanford fans are more than happy to prepare for seeing Andrew Luck return for another year.

Four interceptions today for Peyton Manning? Guess he really does think he’s the next Brett Favre.

Anyone left to doubt the value of television viewers over fans and ticket sales as far as Bowl Games? Distance between Bradley International Airport (Hartford, Connecticut) and Miami 1194 miles. Distance between Bradley and Phoenix, 2213 miles.
Distance between San Francisco Airport and Phoenix 651 miles, Distance between SFO and Miami, 2585.

The Big East and U Conn had lobbied the Orange Bowl heavily to pick their team, to no available. Maybe the Huskies should have offered to have their women’s and men’s basketball teams play at halftime.
–
Another reason, besides geography, that Stanford should have been in in the Fiesta Bowl. Would have made sense that the bowl sponsored by Tostitos should have a team from the state that almost legalized marijuana.
–
On the other hand, I can see the Orange Bowl’s point. Temple, 8-4, was denied any bowl bid whatsover, due to their weak schedule. And one of those eight teams they beat? Big East champion Connecticut.

Delaware Republican Christine O’Donnell set a state record by spending more than $6.1 million in her losing Senate campaign against Democrat Chris Coons.
And Meg Whitman said “Damn, I tried to buy the wrong state.”

It’s a canard (where have I heard that word used before?) Meg Whitman actually put in a bid on Ebay using her paypal (donors) account to buy Calif.
And speaking of someone else fabricating words for Bristol Palin when she took a shot at Margaret Chow’s politics. “If you understood that commonsense conservative values supports the right of individuals like you, like all of us, to live our lives with less government interference and more independence, you would embrace us faster than KD Lang at an Indigo Girls concert.”
Too creative for either Palin to come up with.

Turn out the lights, the party’s over. RIP Dandy Don. Too many RIPs, lately.
Initially, it was a psychological challenge to accept that I’m eligible for AARP membership. Saturday, I got my first solicitation from The Neptune Society. Now I know the etymology of the Big Gulp.
