Lil' Wayne now blogs for ESPN. I dig the man's flow, especially on BM Jr, but something's telling me he's only blogging for ESPN because of his celeb status? At least he's got some interesting team allegiances. Bruins? Allright! In any case, I'm glad to see a little bit of enthusiasm for anything outside of basketball and football in the contemporary rap world.
The Mets can't hold a lead and I love it. I'm curious as to how the media will handle a playoff without any NY team in the mix. At least there's always Boston for that Northeastern fix. Regardless, I'm rooting for the Ray's in the AL and the Cubs in the NL, just because I hate Manny, I'm not enamored by the Phillies being that I am a Marlins fan, and as of now I don't know if the Brewers are in. If they do, I'm all on the Brew Crew train. Just because I love Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder's a vegetarian.
The Dolphins annihilation of the Patriots is still carrying over this late in the week, and I'm enjoying every minute of it. Ronnie Brown looks great, and the playcalling was spectacular. It may not happen week in and week out, but that win was nice.
In other NFL thoughts, Millen's gone, all we need now is Mike Illitch to buy the Lions and we'll be on the road to salvation.

Life's too short. Drive the sports car.
In the middle of the Major League Baseball playoff hunt, ESPN runs poker on Tuesday nights. With university cable I am hampered from viewing pivotal games with October drama. I love network deals. Oh well, the Tigers are cooked and so are the Marlins. I'm jumping on the Rays post-season bandwagon. Godspeed Longoria and Co.!
Maybe I haven't looked hard enough, but amidst the hullabaloo of the market's latest meltdown, George Bush has publicly commented on it... once? Twice? Where is the guy? Maybe he's in Louisiana building homes for those newly marooned victims of Hurricane Katrina. Hey wait a second, that was two years ago, shouldn't that have been done by now?
It's beginning to get cooler outside, so I've decided it's time to learn to adapt http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.callanbentley.com/writing/wild_williamsburg/images/hibernation.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.callanbentley.com/writing/wild_williamsburg/ww_hibernation.htm&h=403&w=450&sz=66&hl=en&start=11&sig2=nYozQkNOOs47HXGzrzlRXg&um=1&usg=__KzS1mFJWto0om4ACjm5LR0CVN0M=&tbnid=fFldvl-Kx9K4vM:&tbnh=114&tbnw=127&ei=mtfZSP-DJoq28AT1w_ioBQ&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dhibernation%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG

Today's observations:
-Eating three well sized cookies following a workout probably isn't the most productive or efficient post workout meal. Especially when that workout probably was walking the treadmill for 30 minutes and some conscience soothing low impact ab exercises.
-The loudest man is usually the weakest man.
-A mom's reassurance is all anyone ever needs when a bad day occurs.

Orange County Blonde and Blue
The new Bleeding Through album is going to slay. The new tracks are crushing. I'm excited. September 30th.
A few quick thoughts from today:
-Monday Night Football has been awesome after three weeks.
-The louder the music, the faster you run.
-People ought to worry about treating each other with more respect on a day to day basis. We're all people made the same way, yet there are people that conduct themselves as superior to others. Eliminating that sense of elitism and feeling of entitlement among people would be a welcome development in my eyes. Maybe I'm part of the problem, but I'm weary of improving.
-Gamecocks play calling-predictable, tentative and irritating.
-Drunk fans I encountered in W-B Stadium during the game-worse x 10k. If you want to load up before games, by all means, get rowdy, but don't be an asshole to others.
-It makes a world of difference in someone's eyes if you just ASK, rather than TAKE.
SHOW RESPECT.

"I am the Alpha..."
This blog was created as part of an assignment for my J325 class. I am unapologetic. Aside from the assignments that will be posted on here for this class, my own ramblings on anything that enters my mind and I deem worthy for the world to know about shall also be entered here. Enjoy the show.
