Good Morning fans of excellence. Today, I have a bit of a surprise for you. In lieu of excellence, I am giving you mailed in garbage. That’s right, for today and today only, I am giving you my 8th best effort. Why? I am hungover, I slept in, I am having someone look at my house in an hour and that involves me cleaning it so they can walk in and out in 2 minutes, I have to go to my parents’ house to help my Dad with a tarp and then to Wiggleman’s house to head off to Giant Stadium. All of this has to happen within two hours, plus I need to get ice for the cooler. So you get to pay the price for me walking 18 holes at Eisenhower and then going on a bar crawl in Red Hook, Brooklyn which is akin to Downtown Baghdad in 5 years when every building is blown up and very few people roam the streets. Not that it was a bad time. I enjoyed it. They had a bunch of small bars, with distinctive flavor. One of them, The Ice House, made something called the Dirty Dog which was a Hog Dog split in the middle, wrapped in cheese and bacon and deep fried. It was amazing. Anywho, I am off but for those of you looking scores, here they be.
In Minor League football, Iowa lost and nothing else of importance happened. Here are the scores.
In the National Basketball Association, the Nets lost and the Celtics won and it happened in the same game. Amazing. Here are other scores.
In the National Hockey League, the Islanders won 6-3 with a goal and assist by Matt Moulson and Blake Comeau and two assists by John Tavares. The Atalnta Threashers were the victims of the steamrolling. For other NHL happenings go here.
Let’s go Giants.
Which zinfandel did you have at The Ice House?
According to one of the comments, the Ice House is as much fun as stale beer.
Why do you need ice for the cooler? Don’t you drink wine at room temperature?

There are 3 games I want to watch today: Pats/Dolphins, Cardinals/Bears, and Suns/Wizards. All of them are on right fucking now.
What about Bengals, Hef?
