Yes We Can

I am supporting Senator Barack Obama for president. My reasons for the "Mac G Endorsement" are coming up later in a following post but check out this inspirational video.

GOOD MORNING!



I have always been a big fan of the spin cycle.

Text Super Bowl Recap

This Super Bowl ending had me more jacked than my body after guzzling one of those new jumbo red bulls. I wanted to try something new and recap my Super Bowl text messages.

I have 2 good buddies who are GMen fans and I do not know any real non bandwagon Patriots fans. If I did, I would have text blasted their ass several one liners, probably just 18-1 over and over.

I received my first Super Bowl related text message from my diehard Giants buddy during the pregame show: Randy Moss is a playoff choker, Harrison is a dirty cheater. Go GIANTS! A new dynasty starts tonite!
My response: Osi need 2 take a dump on Brady

Game Text Messages
My blast text: Kick a FG Bellaprick
My blast text: Alot of Animal Commercials
My blast text: Tuns of gmen fans at game
Inbox: Must not got that Giants Videotape
Inbox: Brady is getting rocked
My repsonse: I like that part

My blast text: Joe Montana never played this bad in a Super Bowl
My blast text: Gmen need to play action more
My blast text: Play Action WHAT! ( Eli throws play action TD on 2nd down, a girl at our place asks what play action means)
Inbox: Giants are going to pull off the upset!
My response: I hope still expect da worst, pats -12 not looking good

Me: Oh My Fn GOD! (Plaxico scores TD!)
Inbox: Pats are Fd
Inbox: Pop it 72, Pop it( This is predictably from a Fins fan, who has been waiting all year to send that text)

Me: Riot n NYC
Inbox: Giants deserved it Pats r sore losers
Inbox: Cheaters never win
Inbox: Another year talking about the greatness of the manning family. Talk more about that family then the Kennedys

Inbox: Nostradomus, i mean plax wasnt too far off, just underestimated his own defense
My response: Wow, U r right!

Inbox: F Yeah
Me: U called it, go gmen!
Inbox: Eighteen and one is a decent season(Giant Buddy)
Inbox: World Champions(Giant Buddy)
Inbox: The 72 Fins live to die another day(Dolphins Buddy)
Inbox: Another one bites the dust. Bellidick is no Shula (Same Dolphins Buddy)

Me to my Hawkeye buddy: A Cyclone getting beat for winning TD is awesum

Me to my Giant friend on Monday morning: R u still partying? Bad guys do lose
Response: Am recovering. Working Sucks. Giants make today great anyway

Hangover Monday


I have 3 observations on the day after Super Bowl, otherwise known as Hangover Monday.

  • The game needs to be moved to Saturday night so fans can have a day of recovery. Some will argue about saving the moniker "Super Bowl Sunday" but some catchy outdated slogan did not help my headache or millions of Americans' headaches this morning.
  • If the NFL continues with the game on Sunday, our government needs to step up and give us Monday off. I do not have facts to back this up but I speculate that other countries have national days for a sporting event. The Super Bowl is americana in a nutshell.
  • It was reported that an impressive 105 million people were tuned in for the final 30 minutes of the Super Bowl. My question is what were the other 200 million people in this country doing? Watching Law and Order Reruns? Figuring in the drama, they missed arguably one of the best final quarters in Super Bowl history.

Erin Andrews Wants Me to DIE

Dear Erin,

We need to have a talk. I am just plowing through my normal Munday routine of chugging java, avoiding work and wishing I did not drink so heavily over the weekend, when I came across your attire on Saturday night.

Most sports fans (ME) are finally recovering from your recent shoe choice of hot heel boots in Happy Valley and now you follow it up with tight spandex pants with high heels? WOWSERS!

What are you trying to do males in this country? Kill us all one by one? Seriously, Erin.

I know it is only a matter of time before my liver gives out but please, this out of nowhere sharp rise in blood pressure might end me much sooner.

I wanted to make you aware of the adverse effect that you are having on the health in society and please takes this into consideration.

An respected admirer and men's health advocate,

Mac G

ps. Please do not take this as a slight towards your fashion sense or think this is personal. I am still drunk from Super Bowl Sunday.

Advise to Press Mute Button

Here is Heidi from the Hills and her music career looks promising. Actually, not so much. She could bag some role on a skinamax late night show. Bikini Girls is constantly looking to upgrade their talent, well, at least that is what someone told me.



I have never watched the Hills. My MTV viewership extends to being hooked on the last Real World Sydney and the new Real World/Road Rules challenge.

The RW/RR challenge show is some high entertainment. Horny drunk dudes hopped up on roids trying to slay smashed slutty reality "stars." It is great.

Plus, I think CT wants to end someone's life on TV or his relationship or both.

Victoria's Secret Ad



The Victoria's Secret Super Bowl party looks intense and overwhelming. I hate Ryan Seacrest even more now.

Perfectville:Population 1

Reebok sure scored with the creation of this 1972 Dolphins commercial. I will have much more on last night's amazing game later and the bad guys do lose in the Super Bowl.

Pictures of the Day-Jam Band Style



These 2 pictures are for my jam band readers out there and for the brahs at Brahsome. I will not be recapping the title games as the Packers loss left me battered down and bewildered.

I guess I will cheer for the Giants. My rationale is that the Patriots and the city of Boston need another championship like our country needs more GW Bush policies.

Actually, I am on my way to nowhereville North Carolina for Miss So Bell's cousin's wedding. I just found out the reception is booze free and it hurts just typing that out.

There will be a solid MLB player at the wedding and of course my stalker ass will get some pictures.

I just hope the Super Bowl is more entertaining than the commercials. Word, Mac G.

Pix of Day:Huggie Bear is the P.I.M.P.

I was screaming for my Iowa Hawkeyes to hire Bob Huggins as their next head coach. This attire says it all and KState fans are feeling the fruits of Huggie Bear's PIMP recruiting efforts.

Of course hiring Huggie Bear would have meant that the Hawkeye athletic administration engaged in outside the box thinking. This is a laughable concept to comprehend for Iowa AD Gary "No Balls" Barta.

He reminds me of Harry "dont rock the boat" Reid's reluctance to effectively stand up to Bush on anything in the Senate.

Hell, Iowa could not fire a head basketball coach(Alford) who was hated by 75 plus percent of the state's fan base and just recently, Barta punted on forcing head coach Kirk Ferentz to make ANY football coaching staff changes from one of the worst offenses in a major BCS conference.

Legendary Hawkeye head wrestling coach Dan Gable (15 national titles in 21 years) would not put up with this losing crap. Hint, HINT.

Thanks to LOL Jocks for the picture.

Erin's Serving Hot Za in Happy Valley

There is quite an obsession with Erin Andrews on the series of tubes among sports bloggers and fans. There are infamous pictures of her eating a sandwich, photo shopped picture of her getting her breast touched by a young Hawkeye fan, and repeated up close shots of her ass and chest. Slide shows on You Tube are dedicated to every picture of Erin Andrews.

In our society, overexposure always breeds contempt so you will find Andrews haters out there. I respectfully disagree to all doubters of her hotness.

I find her insanely attractive. If we want to get critical, her face is OK and her nose is a little funky, but overall the chick is a knockout. I say 8.5-9 with room to go up on a 10 scale.


Plus, she seems to know what she is talking about and appears to be intelligent. "Appears" is the key word. Then again, when a woman walk in boots like those above, words have little value to men.


Thanks to Big Lead, Rush the Court for the tip
A HUGE Shout out goes to camera man Jim Davidson The Ozone's for his announcer poon hunting photography. Godspeed.
Click here for more hot pictures.

UPDATE: Erin worked the Indiana/Wisconsin game in Madtown last night. Brian Lucas's clever Live Blog of the game details Erin's in game movements with comments like these:

"Erin also has a stash of M&Ms over here by our seats (not sharing)....I’m sure Joe will want to print off and save (he’s got to be the only guy in history to attempt three shots in a game and still get to talk to Erin Andrews afterwards."

Bikini Cricket

Cricket Anyone?



I wanted to cheer myself up as the jury trial I was serving on is now over. I sent a guy to jail yesterday. It was a very unique case and once my attorney Dr Gonzo stops sniffing his ether, I will know how much I can spill.

The prosecutor was a smoking hot cougar so not all was lost over the past few days.

Who Made Mike Huckabee?

Stephen Colbert had a classic bit last night about Conan O'Brien stating that he made Mike Huckabee, which irked Colbert because he has already laid claim to propelling Huckabee from lower to upper tier GOP presidential candidate.

Later, Jon Stewart comes on stage with a VHS tape to add more comedy into the piece.



Here is the back story on their joking feud, which Stewart labeled as, "How much more time can we waste on all 3 of our shows?"



It appears the Huckster's white house train has been stopped anyway with his defeat in the Florida primary.

(Picture from Pro Football Talk)

This is a panoramic shot of Favre's pick in OT. The worst player to throw in this situation was the one he chose with his fatal toss.

Unlike congressional members of the republican party, who rarely publicly criticize or disagree with our awful president on anything, I can rip my favorite football player of all time when he deserves it.

The Packers still had a magical season and a large part had to do with Favre's improved play. Yeah, I am still bitter about the Giants loss. Jury duty has not really helped me clear my head either.


This seems to be one of the lamest Super Bowl media weeks in a long time, with no real story lines. Check out my man Chris from Mr. I covering today's media "event" for The Sporting Blog. Funny Stuff.

The Ginger Kid Strikes Buttermilk Gold


Shaun White had an epic gold medal performance at the Winter X games Snowboard SuperPipe Men’s Final on Sunday night in Aspen. White, who no longer refers to himself by his popular "The Flying Tomato" nickname, rocked all three of his final runs. He saved his best for last, scoring a 96.66 to ward off 17 year old Japanese phenom Ryo Ono for the top billing.

White, the fearless ginger kid, predicted right before his last run that he had something up his sleeve and boy oh boy did he ever. He ripped off a 1260 on his last trick to put his signature on the Winter X games.

For those of you mathematically challenged, a 1260 is 3 and a half complete spins on a snowboard. Unbelievable.

Here is the detailed list of his 7 half pipe winning jumps and the video.
Leaner
McTwist
Frontside 1080
Fakey to Forward 1080
Frontside 900
Backside 900
Frontside 1260

I am not stoned and a little rusty on my snowboard terminology but of course my favorite name is the McTwist, Brah.

White might have predicted his hot championship run at Buttermilk Mountain with his recent arrest for using a fire extinguisher.

Out Jurying

My lack of posts lately are a result of being called to serve my duty as a tax paying American Citizen and resident of the District of Columbia. Yes, I am a juror. The trial is not over and I am probably already saying too much.

The whole experience has been fascinating and I plan on writing a post about it at some point. I will consult my attorney, Dr Gonzo, to see about any potential legal snafus with spilling some of my guts online.

When I was asked by the Judge my profession during the the jury elimination selection process, I was tempted to say part time blogger just to see the Judge's reaction.

Surely, that would have qualified me to get the heave ho off the trial!! According to MSM, bloggers are ruining the world and so I was trying to fit into the negative narrative.

Oh, I need to come up with some better slang words for the term "blogger." It seems so 2004 and blah.

The most ironic moment about being selected for a DC jury trial was coming home to finding my W2s in the mail. DC, which has more population than the whole state of Wyoming, has ZERO representatives in Congress. Zippo, NADA, ZILCH!

I do not have 2 Senators or a Congressman with a vote. I still pay federal and DC state taxes with no direct representative in our government.

I understand the political aspects of DC's populace consisting of overwhelming number of democrats and thus, the Republican party not willing to give away 3 votes in Congress. They are protecting their party's interests.

However, this is a lesser concern compared to granting equal voting rights to every American citizen, regardless of party affiliation. Are we not Americans first and foremost? Our right to vote is the backbone of this republic and provides everyone with reassurance that their voice actually matters.

The GOP leadership in the Senate killed DC's chance to get a vote in the house last September and Bush was threatening a veto anyway.

Bush's preaches this utopian view of democracy in numerous speeches to foreign countries but the people living just blocks from where he sleeps at night are the most disenfranchised citizens in all of the United States.

I know no one cares about this issue because most people reading my dribble do not live here, so out of sight translates to out of mind.

I get that too but let me tell ya, being oppressed electorally by Uncle Sam in the federal legislative branch and yet, still having to give him a big chunk of my paycheck every other week, Fn SUCKS!

Then again, I am just a troop hating, peacenik, commie who wants to stop occupying foreign countries and spend most of our money here at home. What do I know?

A complete weekend without a football game is like ordering decaf java, O'Doul's or fat free cheese. Only the real thing does the deal. My Packers wound is still fresh but the sting is slowly fading.

I have been able to gingerly watch NFL network and ESPN in spurts.
Did you hear Eli was Peyton Manning's little brother or that Tom Brady dates Gisele? I love getting Brady injury updates from TMZ leeches hired to sit at Gisele's apartment. Awesome.

Anyway, here are some links to help my suddenly erection stiff hard readership power through its Monday.(thanks Extra Mustard)
