A Special Hanukkah Salute from The Birdman

Its nice to know that I can always count on the Denver Nuggets to be unbelievably vile and inappropriate.  I opened up my copy of the Denver Post on the first Night of Hanukkah and was given this special gift as a reminder that people are stupid (sorry about the hatchet job with the scissors, its been a very rough week).

Yes, I know that this is probably unintentional and hopefully both Arby’s and Chris Anderson are embarrassed that they put a giant picture of a tatted up angry looking thug giving the old “sieg heil” salute, but still, gimmie a freaking break.

Just another reason to despise both the creators of the slimy, stomach churning “Big Mo” and of course my hometown Denver Thuggets.

Finishing Up the Bowl Picks

Daily Obsessive Google Rank Check:
Pool Cues: #1
Pool Cue: #2

Went 1-2 yesterday, dropping my bowl record to 18-10.  With three games left until the BCS Championship, I figure I’ll just run through them all now:

UConn -6.5
Ohio St. +8
Tulsa pick’em

I still don’t know which way I want to go on the Florida/Oklahoma game, so I’ll save that one for a few days.

New Year’s Resolutions and Such

Daily Obsessive Google Rank Check:
Pool Cues: #1
Pool Cue: #2

Like everyone, I’m making a list of things I want to do that I probably won’t stick to.  Generally speaking I think that New Year’s Resolutions are pretty stupid, but even so I still make them.  So here’s what I’ve got for 2009

Eat less crap and more fruits and veggies
Get on a regular workout regimine and stick to it
Find a temple in Boulder County and attend High Holiday services
Get back in running shape and run the Bolder Boulder

On the bowl picks front, I had a solid New Year’s day running my record against the spread to 17-8.  Today I’m going with Ole Miss +4, East Carolina -3 and Alabama -9.5.
