1/7: The Rocket's Red Glare At His Stoolie


8:30 p.m.

 

• So I’ve been hearing about Roger Clemens and his hard-hitting “60 Minutes” interview. First off, I have to chuckle because I’ve heard more than one person go “OMG Roger knows Mike Wallace – not fair, soft interview!” So we are supposed to discount this interview due to media bias? How come when the same griping goes on in the political world the accusers are right-wing nut jobs? Well that’s because we are. Nevermind. Is Roger telling the truth? I don’t know and I don’t care. I will say this, though. For now I will take his word. Not because I believe in that innocent until proven guilty stuff. But rather if he gets busted for roids, I’ll have plenty of time to make up for saying, “let’s just wait until his dealer comes out of hiding.” But wait, Marian Jones and Barry Bonds did many of the same things – did you believe them? Why should I – they are black.

 

• Some guy from Ohio State just scored a touchdown on a 65-yard run. I don’t care who wins the BcS title, but I guess I’m pulling for Ohio State. I’m sure they have more white players than LSU, but a bigger reason is I sometimes get tired of hearing how one team is going to dominate a contest before the game even starts. By the way, will a college football fan help me out on this: what do those little symbols on a player’s helmet stand for – the number of games played/started?

 

• OK, I've had enough of these "productivity enhancer" ads. Go away.

They are pride stickers. Basically, for every big play you make/contribute or act as a leader, you get a sticker.

Hawk is correct. They are a buckeye tree leaf. "Little symbols"? Wow, man, I know you're not a college football fan but I had no idea you were that clueless. Then again, they may not be as well known outside Ohio. Many teams use them for their respective school, but many do not.

I've just seen those things on helmets (tomahawks on FSU, condoms on USC) and was curious. Didn't know the smear merchants would be out in full force.
