$15,000 a MONTH?

Note to Self: Make baby with Matt Leinart.

Cha-ching.

And I breathe a sigh of relief…

The St. Louis Rams did what they had to do… they signed quarterback Marc Bulger, one of the premier QB’s in the NFL, to a 6-year contract extension that will pay him, on average, just more than $10 million per season and put him into the upper echelon of QB pay scales.

Bulger is one of the lynchpins of the Rams offense and having him locked-in for 6 more seasons is not only a relief, but encouraging that the Rams moves this off-season are just the beginning.

What the FUCK is Wrong at the Tour de France???

Are all these guys passing the dutchie and snorting coke of the crotches of hookers?

Last year the chants of USA! USA! were squashed when Lance Armstrong-lite won the tour, then got busted for having too much man-juice in his veins.

Then a few days ago Enrico Palazzo got kicked off.

And today the tour leader–what’s his name?—Manfrenjensen?–for violating “internal rules” because he wouldn’t tell people where he was when he missed some drug tests…in MAY.

This thing is starting to make Barry Bonds look like a fucking Cub Scout.

Look, I’m no expert on cycling (get behind me on an incline over 5 degrees and you’ll see why) but it seems to me that maybe these guys are going a little overboard on this doping thing. And I’m not talking about the riders…I’m talking about Nurse Ratchet and rest of the Nazis running the tests. I mean COME ON!! You shouldn’t expel them because they had an extra Gatorade the night before.

The Atlanta Falcons are Having a Rough Week


First the whole Mike Vick debacle, and now Jimmy Williams gets busted for weed.

Who do The Falcons think they are? The Bengals?

Fine. FINE!


Fine. Everybody keeps e-mailing me and asking me if I have heard about the Bucs talking to Daunte Culpepper.

Yes. I have heard.

Yes. I went to UCF and yes, I am a Bucs fan.

Here are my problems:

1) I went to school with Daunte.

I don’t mean he went to my school. I mean I saw him play when I was still going to games with my sorority sisters on a bus. Screw you guys. yes, I was in a sorority.

My point is that he is old. I am 34 and I went to college with him and we all know that I am too old for the NFL (and so if Jeff Garcia) and,

2) The Miami Dolphins are trying to get rid of him. Fine Trent Green isn’t bad. But if Trent gets hurt… I mean – didn’t the Dolphins pass on a chance at Brady Quinn and they passed?

3) How many washed up and/or mediocre quarterbacks can one team field? Garcia? (He was really quite good – SIX YEARS AGO), Sims, Gradkowski? These are all fine backs ups. Who is my starter?

4) Has Gruden gone mental?

I used to love this man. I swear to God (you can ask Erin and Tammy) the day it was announced that Jon Gruden took the Bucs job I e-mailed all of my girlfriends and said “We have the dreamiest coach in the whole NFL.”

When he won me the Super Bowl I wanted to name my child after him. (Fortunately for Gabe there were two of them and I couldn’t really name a kid Dungy, could I?) Before that I used to watch Raider games just to watch Jon Gruden saying bad words on the sideline.

Now?

Now he just pisses me off. Sure, at pick 5 JaMarcus Russell was already gone, but what about Brady Quinn? Don’t even get me started on last year, or the year before.

So, yeah, I’ve heard. Yeah. I’m crazy over it. Part of me wants to burn all of my Bucs paraphernalia and buy a Redskins jersey and another part of me wants a nice red and pewter jersey that says Culpepper on it.

But I accept that the second part is just the golden knight in me, and she is kind of a drunk. You can’t listen to anything that she says.
