it all makes sense now

So tonight's the annual fantasy baseball draft, and we're doing it at the good doctor's childhood home. Ahhh...love the smell of nostalgia in the morning. I couldn't be more excited. Was doing a little research and came across this little nugget:

The numbers beside the names of the players indicate the projected round they may be drafted. DND = Do Not Draft. Ladies and gentleman* your 2009 Pittsburgh Pirates!!!

*(I know, no ladies or gentleman in Pittsburgh)

This is going in my scrap book of evidence to convince the little cheese not to play soccer. (or move to Iraq)

Also, I wouldn't bet against this guy being a suspect.

Due to a struggling economy and a format change, The Adam Carolla Show prematurely ended Friday. Needless to say I am extremely devastated mildly bummed.


I thought it was one of the smartest, funniest, fastest, most entertaining things I've ever heard on the radio. (perhaps any medium) Anything I write here will not do it justice. It had a perfect balance and blend of highbrow/ lowbrow and it was done in a way that you felt a a connection to the show. Though the main attraction remained Adam Carolla, he had plenty of capable supporting cast by way of guests and staff that molded the show into something great. The fact that everyone on the show seemed to pull their own weight and care for each other, made them endearing to the listener. (specifically the interaction between Adam, Teresa Strasser and Bald Bryan)

To say I will miss occupying over 15 hours of any given week listening to this beloved show is a wild understatement. I'm not sure what I will drown out the voices in my head with now. (show tunes? Chris Brown?)

Carolla will be giving the hardcore fans (i.e. addicts) a self described "hit" in the form of a podcast, starting tomorrow. For the time being, it will be a condensed and stripped down version in contrast to what we were used to hearing on the radio show. I'm hoping a little Carolla goes a long way. I mean, where else am I going to listen to a grown man rant about red turn arrows, taxes, and Ty Pennington?

Ace, you will be missed...can't wait to see what the future brings.

things that make you go hmmm....

If I had a stronger inner voice when dealing with social commentary I might be able to spew a Carolla-like rant based on the contrasts of the underlined stories. Or if this had to do with Spring Training, Fantasy Hockey, or "Lost" theories you may be looking at a 100,000 word dissertation. As it is, you're dealing with me, so I just decided to underline the perceived irony. Microsoft paint is such a crutch.

The Answer

Prepare yourself for possibly your only NBA nugget of news this year decade from this site. (sorry hulkstillrules17055) I typically don't post things from "The Association", but felt this had to be shared. As is the norm, this story is already three - four days old.

(what?....I get my info via carrier pigeon and/or smoke signals.)

(Which was the cause of my incorrect posting of the "Joaquin Phoenix impregnates Obama with 8 embryos in an attempt to stimulate the economy" story. Turns out, it was just the local Denny's on fire.)
