The other major news story of the week not related to the coming global depression was that the great WR/PR/QB/DB Troy Brown retired on Thursday. God Speed TB, there was not a classier professional athlete anywhere in the world over the past 14 years then you

The Nightwatcmen's second album comes out on Tuesday and I could not be any more excited. In an era of flagrant commercialism, it is wonderful to see someone flying under the radar who is content being a passionate human being instead of a whore for the media.

When the St.Louis Rams are sold at the end of the season, any chance they come to Hartford? Lets make this happen!

Max Kellermen deserves the national 10 am ESPN radio show. Send Cowhurd back down the hole he crawled out from.

Lets us not underestimate Manchester City being bought by a trillion dollar mid-east consortium. With Russia running Chelsea, let us as Americans rise up in support of Man United and Aston Villa. The EPL is the first battle ground in the new cold war, and as a campaign promise, I would make this a top priority.

Do not let the West Coast Bias fool you. Manny Ramirez is doing nothing but creating bad karma for the Dodgers organization.

"Burn After Reading" was Malkovich's best performance since "Con Air".

If JD Drew slips and falls in the forrest, is he ever seen again? I mean, holy crap, Mike Lowell is looking as hobbled as Kirk Gibson in '88 as is still forcing himself into the lineup. Every two weeks Drew is going to play, then we get word he is going to see another specialist.

After a long week, it is essential to kick back and jam some Floyd to help usher in a new NFL season...
