Last night, Texas Gov. Rick Perry called Hillary Clinton “a very, very capable public servant, great secretary of state and first lady.” The sad thing, with many of Perry’s supporters that comment will be seen as more offensive than his comparing homosexuality to alcoholism.
–
Hillary Clinton says the U.S. should lift its embargo on Cuba. Translation, she’s done the math, and between new residents and a younger population, there are just not that many anti-Castro Florida voters any more.
The World Cup finally got started today. So fans of serious flopping no longer have to settle for watching the NBA.
–
So today is the first day of U.S.Open, and the World Cup. In addition there are several MLB games and game four of the NBA finals. So let’s see how ESPN will somehow manage to lead with an NFL story.
–
Landon Donovan will now be an in-studio World Cup analyst for ESPN. He’ll be in the tournament a lot longer than US team he was left off of…. #WorldCup
( Of course if ESPN really wanted to get Americans watching the World Cup they’d hire Johnny Manziel as an analyst.)
First day of the #WorldCup and Brazil scores the go-ahead goal on what appears to be an egregious yellow card following a flop by a Brazilian player. But I’m sure it was an accidental mistake. No one would ever accuse FIFA and their host country of anything untoward.
–
John Boehner is blaming Eric Cantor’s defeat on Obama. So much for all those who said our President never accomplishes anything.
–
The Cleveland Cavaliers are apparently interested in Mark Jackson as their next head coach. Well, the job wouldn’t come with any playoff pressure.
Harrison Ford, reprising his role as Han Solo, has been injured on the set of the film, “Stars Wars VII”. Apparently by the door of the Millennium Falcon. Did Ford trip over it with his walker?
Will the cause of #HarrisonFord‘s ankle injury on the set of the new Star Wars movie be listed as too much Force?
–
So with this colossal mess in Iraq, the GOP will no doubt be blaming President Obama for taking out a strong leader who once had the country under control….. Oops, wait. Never mind.
Have to figure this is being told tonight somewhere. “Heard a good Florida joke?” “The Miami Heat.”

Jill Biden said that she advised Joe to take the vice presidency offer because as secretary of state he would have been traveling all the time and she would never see him.
Funny, that’s the same reason Bill advised Hillary to take the secretary of state offer.

15 South African Airways crew members were arrrested at London’s Heathrow airport after customs agents found over 100 pounds of marijuana in their luggage.
Kind of puts a whole new spin on “mile-high” club, doesn’t it?.

With icy-cold temperatures expected, there are rumors that Obama’s inauguration might have to be moved indoors. Which would mean a lot of disappointed people standing out in the cold. A common occurrence in Washington, except usually involving Redskins fans.
–
But it’s been a rough several months for New Yorkers. I mean, this inauguration was supposed to be either President Hillary Clinton or Rudy Guiliani, while this weekend the N.Y Giants (and maybe the Jets with Brett Favre) were supposed to be playing for a spot in the Super Bowl. And let’s not forget the expected World Series champion New York Yankees or Mets…
–
Tiger Woods will be speaking at Barack Obama’s inaugural ceremonies. Many of his fellow pro golfers were disappointed to hear it. They felt Obama should have given Tiger a role more commensurate with his abilities, like an ambassadorship that would regularly take him out of the country on a full-time basis.
–
It’s been eight years and President Bush doesn’t quite get it. When he was told at first he would need to give a farewell address, his first response was “Well, until Tuesday it’s still 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.”

Today Bill Clinton was asked to comment about Hillary’s hearing. His response “Great, she caught me sneaking in every time.”
–
But just a thought after listening to Sarah Palin whine this week about being exploited, thereby of course bringing everything she was complaining about back into the limelight.
Governor Palin, that’s SO 2008….
–
And of course, nothing helps get your family your privacy back like selling baby pictures for $300,000.

Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh, after weeks of speculation about him talking with teams about an NFL job, has issued a statement:
“I would like to unequivocally state that I am 100 percent committed to Stanford and I look forward to leading this football program for years to come,” he said.
Translation, he didn’t get a great offer.
–
As Tim Geithner tries to deal with questions about his unpaid taxes, who knew that Steve Martin in Saturday Night Live 30 years ago would be so prescient. Remember “How can you be a millionaire and not pay taxes?… two simple words, ‘I Forgot'”
–
And Joe the Plumber is reporting for a conservative website “PJTV” from Israel, where he is saying the media should get out of the mid-east. Am not sure what qualifications PJTV was looking for with Joe, but I am guessing they didn’t include a sense of irony.
Speaking of “That’s SO 2008” – Joe the Plumber
Any suggestions on other things that are “so 2008” greatly appreciated. More to follow later.

Apparently confirmation hearings for Hillary Clinton as secretary of state will involve questioning her about Bill. Well, sure who better to know what’s really going on in Bill’s Clinton’s life than Hillary?
–
George W. Bush once again defended his presidency today, especially regarding Katrina and the credit markets. But lets be real, in eight years the only time he’s really noticed anything under water was watching Michael Phelps.
–
George W. Bush and Dick Cheney actually are claiming that they have strengthened the Presidency.
Right, just like…
Sarah Palin and her family have strengthened the abstinence movement.
Al Davis has strengthened the Oakland Raiders.
–
George W. Bush and Dick Cheney say they have strengthened the institution of the presidency. Even Cubs fans say these guys are delusional.
–
There’s gambling in Las Vegas? I’m shocked, shocked…
Fox Sports is planning a series of one-hour shows on the NCAA men’s basketball tournament featuring Bob Knight and Billy Packer. The shows will be taped at the race and sports book in the Wynn hotel. But former CBS sportscaster Packer said the shows will be about analyzing the games and won’t mention gambling.
Does that mean we can expect a show analyzing the NFL playoffs featuring Plaxico Burress and Pacman Jones to be taped at a nightclub?

It’s not been a good year for the BCS. Barack Obama threatened to put the power of the presidency behind a playoff system, and a number of one loss teams all had legitimate claims to being in the National Championship game.
But at least the only undefeated team in a BCS game was the Utah Utes, from the lowly Mountain West conference. Since they were matched against Alabama, from the powerful SEC, a team that was number one until their loss to Florida, this figured to be a no-brainer. Oops. Utah won this game 31-17 and is 13-0…..
–
Btw, the answer to the question, what is a “Ute?” is – one of a band of American Indians for whom the state of Utah was named. Although there are apparently yearly protests on campus, the Utes have been spared some of the national controveries that the Redskins, Indians, Braves and Seminoles, for example, have faced. Not that Americans are less sensitive to the Utes – they just don’t know what they are.
–
Utah, along with USC – which had a strong season with only one loss – are both claiming that BCS unfairly weighs reputations and past history in choosing winners. On the other hand, Hillary Clinton has asked that the BCS computers be used in future Democratic primaries.
–
President Bush told Barack Obama that Blair House the president-elect’s traditional residence starting January 15, was unavailable earlier due to prior commitments. But the girls needed to start school Monday.
Fortunately, the Obamas were able to find rooms at the Hay Adams hotel. Many Republicans are just relieved the accommodations don’t include a manger.

Tacky joke alert…
A child was born on a Northwest flight between Amsterdam and Boston last week. Big deal . On Jet Blue, a woman boarded a plane after unprotected sex the night before; by the time they took off she was in her second trimester.

Bill and Hillary Clinton appeared together at Times Square to push the button to drop the crystal ball at midnight. It was a historic moment, the first time anyone can remember seeing Bill and Hillary together on New Years Eve.
–
There was one embarrassing moment. After Bill kissed Hillary at the stroke of midnight, out of habit he asked “And your name is?”
–
Actually the ball drop went very well. But it wasn’t exactly the button Hillary hoped to be in charge of pushing in 2009.
–
After the event, the Clintons went home together, where Bill went to sleep and Hillary waited up for that 3am phone call.
The first outdoor NHL Hockey game in Chicago was a raging success. And it also guaranteed that at Wrigley Field in 2009 there would be something colder than the Cubs in the playoffs.

According to a recent USA Today poll, 80 percent of Americans said they have had a holiday gathering ruined by a relative. The other 20 percent said they couldn’t answer because their mother was listening.
–
Barack Obama is trying to help Hillary Clinton retire her campaign debt. Though these days maybe Hillary would have better luck if she called it a bailout.
–
It is a weird world when “only” $15 billion is considered almost chump change…
–
Now that Hillary Clinton is moving to the nation’s capital, how long until she announces that in her heart she really has been a Washington Nationals fan?
–
O.J. Simpson will spend at least nine years in prison for his armed robbery conviction, giving him plenty of time to reflect. Especially about the fact he didn’t try to steal his stuff back in Los Angeles.
–
The chairman of the Chicago Cubs said the franchise should be sold by next spring. Which means the new owners will get to have a full season to be disappointed.
–
Greg Maddux, one of the winningest pitchers of all time, despite never having overpowering stuff, has announced his retirement. He decided it was time when his fastball could no longer rattle glass.
–
Previously undefeated Ball State lost to Buffalo in a shocking upset in the Mid American Conference football championship game. Of course, to most casual fans the biggest shock was that Ball State had a football team, let alone that they were undefeated.
–
Oklahoma City basically stole their new NBA team from Seattle. But how long until the Oklahoma fans beg some other city to steal their Thunder?

So at this point Detroit automakers say they will do anything for a bailout…. Anything except actually making cars Americans want to buy.
–
Bill Clinton said this week that he would “stay out of Hillary’s way.” Isn’t that what he’s been trying to do for most of their marriage?
Protesting a bit too much?
The New York Giants issued a 425 word statement denying that they tried to cover up Plaxico Burress accidentally shooting himself. 425 words? The Gettysburg Address was only 272!
–
One line from the statement – “No one from the Giants had any involvement with any decision by the hospital concerning its reporting requirements relating to gunshot wounds,” said Pat Hanlon, vice president of communications. No comment.
–
The whole incident generates a potential followup to the question “How do pro athletes get so many DUI’s when they could easily afford personal drivers?” As in, “If you are a real NFL star isn’t someone in your posse supposed to be carrying the gun for you?”
–
Quite a night in New York. Rockefeller Center lit up their Christmas tree, and then the Cleveland Cavaliers lit up the Knicks. (Final score – Cavaliers 118, Knicks 82)
–
The Washington Redskins are clinging to playoff hopes after a disappointing month has left them 7-5. On the brighter side, they may end up with more wins than the Wizards.
–
Thursday night’s NFL matchup features the 4-8 San Diego Chargers against the 3-9 Oakland Raiders. Was this game sponsored by America’s malls? Because it just might make most men in America throw up their hands and go Christmas shopping.
–
The San Francisco Giants will experiment with yield management and market pricing next year, by holding out 2,000 seats where the price will fluctuate as game day approaches, and according to supply and demand. Thus unused seats could end up deeply discounted.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are studying the idea. Their modification might be to sell seats twice, since they have so many unused after the seventh inning.

(Apologies if you see another post off to the side, having some technical difficulties.)
With Hillary Clinton nominated as Barack Obama’s secretary of state, there are rumors her husband Bill will be chosen to take her place in the Senate.
Former President Clinton was at first leery of the idea. Aides advised him that with the demands of the Senate, he would have to spend most of his time in Washington, instead of traveling with his wife. And Bill said… well, now that I think about it….”
–
Bill Clinton said that before he would accept the New York Senate seat he would need three things: Chuck Shumer’s support, Michael Bloomberg’s cooperation, and Eliot Spitzer’s rolodex.
–
A recent study showed that the British are the most promiscuous people in the world in terms of one-night stands. And Bill Clinton asked Barack Obama, “Say, have you filled that position as Ambassador to the United Kingdom yet?”
_
GMAC, the financing arm of General Motors, has tightened credit to the point that only buyers with excellent credit can get loans. So basically GM couldn’t get financing to buy their own cars.
–
If convicted Plaxico Burress of the New York Giants faces at least a 3 1/2 year sentence for carrying an illegal firearm after he accidentally shot himself with his own gun at a Manhattan nightclub. Though a good lawyer might be able to get him paroled to the Lions.
Actually carrying the gun wasn’t apparently the problem, dropping it was…
–
Wonder what Burress’s defense will be, that he didn’t expect to be going to the nightclub, and was on this way to the airport?
–
On the brighter side, if this NFL thing doesn’t work out, Burress has been offered a job working security for Dick Cheney.
–
The definition of a recession is negative growth in the economy for at least two quarters. Now economists say that the United States is definitely in a recession, and has been so for a year.
So where did all these economists come from? FEMA?
–
President Bush said last weekend that he wants history to see him as a “liberator of millions.” For starters, he liberated millions of Americans from voting Republican.

This year’s Cyber Monday featured all kinds of items with prices slashed 50 percent or more. Including stocks.

Troubled New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress, already unable to play due to a hamstring injury, accidentally shot himself in the thigh Saturday night while at a New York nightclub.
It’s a shame Burress isn’t a member of the Buffalo Bills or the bullet would have missed “wide right.”
–
A bit of explanation for all non-college football junkies regarding yesterday’s post. The BCS bowl system is so messed up that the University of Texas, who finished in second place in their own division of the Big 12, could yet end up playing in the BCS national championship game if the division winner, Oklahoma, loses in the Big 12 final next week… thus leading to the next joke.
–
The University of Texas, runner up in the South division of the Big 12, could yet end up national champions if Oklahoma, the team that defeated them, stumbles in the league championship round. And Hillary Clinton wonders — is it too late to have the BCS run the Democratic party?
–
The San Francisco 49ers upset the Buffalo Bills Sunday to move their record to 4-8. Amazing. With two more wins they could be Division 1 Bowl eligible.

So for anyone who needs one sentence to sum up the BCS mess, here it is:
This season, a team could win the national championship game, and not even win their own conference.
–
This year Alabama is undefeated, but could lose to Florida next week. Florida, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Penn State, and USC all have only one loss. And Ball State, Utah and Boise State, all Division 1 teams, are also undefeated. So why was the BCS created, besides of course money?
To resolve situations when more than one team could claim to be number one.
Yeah, that’s working out real well.
–
The Golden State Warriors lost to the New York Knicks 138-125 Saturday night. The Knicks had actually scored 82 points at the HALF!
Warriors coach Don Nelson reviewed the game tapes with plans to criticize his team’s defense. But he found insufficient evidence.
–
Barack Obama is not only planning to name Hillary Clinton his Secretary of State, he has reinstated Samantha Powers on his foreign policy team.
Wonder if this means the State Department will be known as Monsters Inc?.
–
Senator Joe Lieberman will keep his committee chairmanship and remain in the Democratic caucus, despite his maddening peformance this year. But at this point Barack Obama and the party have decided it would be too costly to let him go.
Making Joe sort of the Charlie Weiss of the Democratic party.
–
Notre Dame followed their embarrassing upset by Syracuse at home, with a complete thrashing by USC in the Los Angeles Coliseum. The game, in fact, ended up keeping the Trojans’ slim national championship hopes alive. Well, at least the Fighting Irish got to play before a crowd that was thrilled to see them.

How quiet did it get at LP Field in Nashville as the Titans saw their perfect season end? Quieter than the evening Amtrak train to Wilmington with Joe Biden now living in Washington.
–
How bad is the season going for the Detroit Lions? The team season highlights DVD will feature their bye week.
–
Eddie Jordan was fired as the Washington Wizards coach after the team got off to a 1-10 start. What does it say about this country that we can fire a lousy coach after a month, but for a lousy president we have to wait four years?
–
And “24” kicked off the 2009 season with a 2 hour special teaser to hold fans until January. In the first season, they featured a black President. This new season will feature a woman president.
Wonder if Hillary Clinton suggested the episode title? “Redemption.”

Ford Motor Company led the insurance industry’s safest car list this week. Well, it makes sense, cars are certainly safe if no one is driving them.

So the Tennessee Titans are perfect no more, after a loss to the NY Jets. Wonder if they were looking ahead to their Thanksgiving day matchup with the Lions.
–
Some wonder why Hillary Clinton is apparently going to accept the Secretary of State position with Barack Obama. Well, for starters, he’s likely to treat her better than the last Democratic president.
–
Many pundits have commented on how many very competent people Barack Obama is choosing for his adminstration. But for Washington fans of incompetence, don’t worry, there’s still the Wizards and the Nationals.
–
The 1-10 Wizards have already had so many bad losses this year that some are thinking of renaming them the Washington Republicans.
–
The Italian Finance Minister claims that Pope Benedict XVI was the first to predict the collapse of the stock markets in a paper he wrote in 1985. Of course, economists have only predicted about 10 market collapses since then.

President Bush says he’s a fan of the environment but I’m not sure he gets it. When he heard that the Volkswagen Jetta was picked the “Green Car of the Year,” he responded, but “Yeah, but I’ve heard the Prius is the best environmental blue colored one.”

Congressional Democrats said they were wary of just handing out money to automakers, and Nancy Pelosi said that “until they show us the plan we cannot show them the money.”
Now there is a concept. Too bad we can’t pay our taxes the same way.
–
Of course, if Detroit had had a plan, they probably wouldn’t need the money.
And around the sports world, many season ticket holders are wishing they could make the same deal.

The Coast Guard intercepted a suspicious looking boat off the coast of Baja and seized over 10,000 pounds of marijuana that was apparently headed for California. In related news, 7-11 downgraded their California profit forecasts.
Different take on the same story – bad pun alert –
The Coast Guard managed to retrieve more than 130 bales of marijuana thrown overboard by a speedboat they were pursuing.
Guess they wanted to avoid a high tide.
The CIncinnati Bengals lost their ninth game Thursday night, after Chad Johnson was benched for undisclosed reason. Or in other words, at least for tonight Ocho Cinco was Ocho Seite’d.

20 members of the Washington Redskins are currently leading at their positions in fan balloting for the Pro Bowl. Well, it might be good for the fans of the game. The Redskins are looking less and less likely to be banged up from playoff games.
–
Also in Washington, injured point guard Gilbert Arenas, has said that if the 1-7 Wizards finish in last place that it could be “for the better.” Well, if his knee doesn’t improve, Gilbert could have a great future as spokesman for the Republican National Committee.
–
Arenas made the comments at Madame Tussaud’s wax museum, while unveiling a figure of himself. Afterwards, officials at Madame Tussaud’s promised to rework Gilbert’s statue, so it would more accurately show him with his foot in his mouth.
Rumors have it that Hillary Clinton will be officially announced as Obama’s pick for Secretary of State. Well, this won’t solve our nation’s problems, but it does mean one cheerful thing: Bill Clinton jokes are back.
Ken Griffey Jr. became the newest American Public Diplomacy Envoy this week.
Not quite sure what that is, but it sounds like a good fit. Because our Diplomacy over the last few years has been as banged up as Griffey.

Michael Vick’s lawyer says that the former quarterback wants to return to the NFL when he is released from prison. Vick is at least hoping to be paroled to the equivalent of a halfway house – like the Lions or 49ers.
–
Hillary Clinton is apparently being considered for the job of Secretary of State. At first she was leery of the idea, and Obama reportedly told her, “I understand, it’s a lot of travel, you won’t see your spouse for weeks at a time,” and which point Hillary interjected “I’m in.”
–
The New York Jets beat the New England Patriots on Thursday night football, a win that would have been unimaginable back when Tom Brady was healthy and Brett Favre was just learning the Jets offense. But this just proves the old saw “Age and treachery will overcome youth and an ACL.”

The recount in Alaska is swinging back and forth between convicted felon and incumbent Ted Stevens and his Democratic Senate challenger Mark Begich. Although if Stevens wins, he is likely to resign. And reportedly Sarah Palin will run for his seat.
Wonder if she remembers saying the Vice President is in charge of the Senate?
Though if she does win, Joe Biden has to be telling himself, “I got out of there just in time…”
–
Congratulations to Tim Lincecum, the San Francisco Giants’ baby-faced and pint-sized 24 year old fireballer, who won the Cy Young award for the best pitcher in the National League. Lincecum compiled 18 wins, the most strikeouts, and the second best ERA in the league. And amazingly, he did it without the benefit of pitching against the Giants’ hitters.
–
On the other end of the spectrum, 45 year old Randy Johnson filed for free agency after he failed to come to terms with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Apparently the D’backs were hoping Johnson would give the team a senior discount.

Game 5 of the World Series, currently suspended after five and a half innings, is on hold again. Tuesday afternoon the conclusion of the game was put off until at least Wednesday.
Which meant that Tuesday night, Fox’s World Series ratings were about the same as they have been for other Series games.
–
One bit of good news for cold wet Phillies fans, because the game was suspended in the sixth and not after the seventh inning, when they resume, the stadium will not yet have cut off beer sales.
–
Bud Selig isn’t worried about what this delay might do to his sport, well, other than rename it “the Winter Classic.”
–
Who’d a thunk that the Phillies would be playing meaningful games deeper into the fall than the Eagles?
–
And back to politics. John McCain’s aides are reportedly worried that Sarah Palin has “gone rogue” and is now hurting the campaign.
Bummer, they thought they were adding Hillary to the ticket, and ended up with Bill.
–
The McCain campaign has become so fractious and disorganized and self-destructive, you have to wonder, have they all become Democrats?
–
How badly has John McCain run his campaign? If this presidency thing doesn’t work out Al Davis may decide he’s a perfect fit for the Oakland Raiders.

Saturday night Sarah Palin dropped the puck at a Philadelphia Flyers hockey game. Meanwhile, her running mate John McCain dropped the puck at a shuffleboard game.
–
Philadelphia fans did not exactly seem thrilled to see Governor Palin. They greeted her with many thumbs down signs, and loud boos. Boos that were only equalled by the ones for the Flyers after they gave up 4 goals in the first period.
–
After forty years, “Hockey Night in Canada” debuted a new theme song- “Canadian Gold.”
In the US, Fox is thinking of debuting a new theme song for the playoffs “Wait til the Midnight Hour.”
–
Not to say the game 3 starter for the Phillies, Jamie Moyer, throws REALLY REALLY slowly… But the Dodgers set a pitching machine at his speed during batting practice and the thing stalled.
–
How slowly do Moyer’s pitches approach the plate? You almost expect one of them to have its turn signal blinking.
–
Both Bill and Hillary Clinton will make a joint campaign appearance on behalf of Barack Obama, and then the former President will campaign on his own for Senator Obama. Just when things were going so well….
–
And what a weekend for college football. So many top teams went down that viewers weren’t sure if they were watching SportsCenter or Wall Street Week.
