Sucks! Don’t write a new song every week from what happened in the games. LUCKILY – Family Guy is on, Pujols is up.

Pats get Marvelous results from watching film
An excited Daniel Graham seemed ready to punch someone at a Patriots team meeting. Instead, he targeted the Atlanta Falcons.
Daniel Graham was fired up by watching the 1985 Hagler-Hearns fight film. Read More
Praying for Ervin Santana
He pitched a gem against the Sox a few months ago, and ended the season strong. He’s got Sheffield up now as the tying run, but I honestly think the kid’s going to get out of this. Buck and McCarver are pontificating as to why there’s nobody up in the Angels’ pen right now, but they’ve been known to get things wrong. It’s only the 5th…and everyone knows, “you go to the playoffs with the team you have…”
Update: He just got Sheff and Matsui…high fastballs on 1-2, 0-2 counts – location was perfect on both.
Praise Jesus!
Once powerful Christian Coalition teeters on insolvency
The Christian Coalition, the onetime powerhouse of the religious right founded by Pat Robertson, is struggling to stay afloat.
The group’s annual revenue has shrunk to one- twentieth of what it was a decade ago – from a peak of $26 million in 1996 to $1.3 million in 2004 – and it has left a trail of unpaid bills from Texas to Virginia. Among the creditors who have sued the coalition for nonpayment are landlords, direct-mail companies, lawyers and at least one former employee seeking back pay. Read More

Duane Starks
This guy has shown me NOTHING so far as a Patriot. He’s consistently beat in one on one coverage. Any Pats fans out there agree, disagree?
Week 5 Picks
10-2-1 for the week. 35-31-3 for the season…nice rebound from last week, as my annual slow period appears to be over with. My one regret this week was doubting the AFC East vs. NFC team at home dynamic by taking Tampa -3 at the Meadowlands. Seriously though…I feel like it’s Christmas every seven days now. Read More

Alan Greenspan’s Replacement to be Announced Next Week
The retirement of Alan Greenspan from the Federal Reserve had been viewed for months by administration insiders as a moment that could play heavily into President Bush’s legacy. Perhaps the most critical appointment of his Presidency, Greenspan’s retirement towards the end of this year is something the administration is “intently focused” upon according to sources close to the matter. Earlier today this space was informed that it is a 99% lock at this point that Bush will be appointing his dog Barney to the position. An announcement is expected soon, but according to our confidential sources, should Barney die before the announcement can be made, the position would then most likely go to the President’s nephew Cletus. “He’s an born-again day trader, who Bush insists shares his values.” More to come…

Judith Miller’s Book Deal
Rumor has it she’s cashing in on her harrowing tale of self inflicted martyrdom, in hopes that there are a few hundred thousand suckers out there who haven’t yet realized that she’s a complete douchebag.

Carl Everett Time
Thanks to Mike for this link! Carl played in Boston for a few years, and is hands down the most mentally disturbed athelete I’ve ever heckled. One drunken Fenway evening, box seats behind Boston’s on-deck circle…”TAKE YOUR PILLS EVERETT!!!” Later on I did the same to Trot Nixon and he hit a three run homer to win the game. With the abuse I aimed at Jose Offerman, I was 2-3 that night. This article is a great read for anyone familiar with Carl. His White Sox face off with Boston this week in the wild card. Read More
Week 4 Picks
