Oregon Duck on a rampage

Quit the one-sided affair. Although it looks like the Houson Cougar put up more of a fight than Michigan is displaying here in the 1st half.

UPDATE: Looks like the Duck will be suspended for next week's home game because of this beating. http://www.registerguard.com/rgn/index.php/rgup/duck_suspended_for_next_home_football_game/

Also, he's probably tired from all the post-touchdown push ups today in Ann Arbor...

two great video finds...

I know a few Duke-haters/bowling-lovers who are going to thoroughly enjoy both of these. The "Bowlin'" video has some language that would not be safe to open if you worked in, say, an elementary school or something.

Here's "Bowlin'"




and here is "This is Why Duke Sucks"



let's give it up for Peter Rosenberg. I can't decide which one I like more, I think I'm going with "Bowlin'" for the clip of "wii bowlin'"

Office Pranks

Here's a good (but I believe incomplete) list of pranks that Jim has pulled on Dwight over the years at Dunder-Mifflin.

Jim put all of Dwight's desk supplies inside the vending machine. Things like his name plate, stapler, pen cup and of course his wallet. Dwight goes to get a snack and notices this. Pam walks in and decides what she really wants is a pen cup. So she buys it. Without his wallet, Dwight can't buy back his supplies. Helpful Jim gives him a bag full of nickels.

it's not Yugiho, dammit!




Here's the first of a 6 part series on how to play Magic, the Gathering. As the Big Man is off to Baltimore, to pimp his 16 year old BFF in the National Tournament, I thought it would be appropriate.


Also, here's the Big Man's strategic deck (enititled "Vial of Goblins"--I kid you not). Just wait until he shows all of Baltimore his Goblin Pyromancer---they will tremble in awe.



Minor League baseball rules


Deadspin's weekly report on the many great Minor League baseball promotional nights and mascots is a great read. This one brings you a pretty creepy squirrel, a bobble-belly "El Guapo" and a great Office Space theme-night.

  • Case Of The Mondays. Monday, July 30. Brevard County Manatees (Class-A Florida State League). In what I believe to be a stroke of pure genius, every Monday at Space Coast Stadium is Case Of The Mondays, in which one lucky fan wins not only a case of delicious Coca-Cola, but also treasured items from the film Office Space. Included will be a miniature red Swingline Stapler, an Initech Coffee Mug, a 'PC Load Letter' sticker for your office's printer, some 'flair' and other stuff. So if you could just go ahead and come on down to the park on Monday, that would be greeaaat

a completely not ok way to celebrate a homerun




This is not allowed. Not even if you and your favorite teammate happen to be wearing matching green socks and mesh shorts.

also, I'm loving youtube's knew easy "post to blog" function. now you all can enjoy the stupid stuff I find. hooray for free time.

*** Update***

Thanks to 10 for letting me know the old video got pulled. here's the clip again. There's also a longer clip of the same "highlight" with audio clips from Borat at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9shwANgY5IY

yes my thumb got hit by the ceiling fan, but it was worth it

this video basically replays the Wii boxing match between K-Man and myself.

best post-ejection tantrum ever?

http://www.wdef.com/node/5567

I saw this video on CNN--terriffic tantrum from the manager of the Mississippi Braves, Phillip Wellman. I've seen managers take the bases before, but the building a mound of dirt over the plate, military crawl to the mound, and throwing the rosin bag at the ump like a grenade were all new for me. Be sure to watch this video--definitely a two-thumbs up from Nightputting.

the NY Post is not a good wingman

Yeah, this is probably unnecessary. The Yanks are in last, and we're now stalking the guy who carried the team through the first month. My question is this: Will this lead to more or less booing for A-Rod?
