*If I were stuck in a room with Steve, Ali, Nick and Kimber, which couple would annoy me more?
*Why did I not give more ink to JR and Joel tackling each other into a puddle in a drunken stroll down the street last weekend?
*If potato chips are so bad for you, why do they taste so good?
*It's really annoying to watch your college team lose by 40 points and have your girlfriend walk into the room, look at the score, and say "awwww honey I'm sorry." This really makes it worse.
*It's even more annoying when your girlfriend's favorite team has a 38 game home winning streak extended by scoring 11 straight points in the final minute and a half of their game the next day.
*My cell phone battery was just recalled because it "may or may not be counterfeit" according to Kyocera. How would a counterfeit battery make its way into a prepackaged cellphone? I didn't buy the battery seperately. Whatever though, I'm getting a new free battery, so I'm not complaining.
*Is there money in counterfeiting cell phone batteries?
*By the time the New England-Indianapolis game comes on, I'll have already watched 3.5 straight hours of sports. I'm kind of sick of watching tv, but now the game I really want to watch is on. Why does this always happen?
*Is playing on the road really that much tougher than playing at home? You're still running the same plays and against the same teams. It's not like they strap a weight vest to you or make you wear really uncomfortable shoes.
*Some guy dove from the six yard line in a pre-touchdown celebration in yesterday's East-West Shrine Game. He ended up six inches short, then got a 15 yard excessive celebration penalty. Stupid right? How about the fact that this guy essentially long jumped 18 feet wearing full football gear and carrying a football? That's some talent.
*Watched Troy last night. Good movie, although a few things bothered me. They showed like 4 or 5 different body burnings. This apparently was some sort of funeral ritual for important people back in the day. So I understand why they were burning all these bodies, but did they have to go through the whole ritual every time? Wouldn't showing the body aflame from afar for a few seconds have been enough, rather than showing a grief stricken relative or warrior placing coins on the eyes, looking to the skies for an answer, then lighting the fire, crawling off the burning pile and then a close up of the dead guy's face as the flames intensify around him. Could've cut at least 8 or 10 minutes off of a marathon movie.
