Our regular political contributor, Jon Schnaars, might have to hand in a tardy recap tomorrow, but just as a heads up, there will be a discussion of all things Texas and Ohio Wednesday morning.
Apparently, this photo is real, and it is not of some slowly blogger, but of a political journalist covering the Texas primary. (Daily Kos)
TV news guy in New York “bends over backward” to help ESPN with Cornell hoops footage … you know how this story ends. (WBNG)
A “mob” of Red Sox fans jack up a guy for wearing a Yankees hat, sending him to the hospital. (Wicked Local)
We haven’t had a Mickey’s since college. (Cousins of Ron Mexico)
Breaking news via Joe Sports Fan - Kim Kardashian will be at Wrestlemania. (411 Mania)
Life is fucking unfair, Part XVII: Los Angeles high school football star gunned down by two men for no reason. (LA Times)
It’s a bit Orwellian, but most of the folks who “own” their house now, simply don’t. The house ends up owning its debt-ridden tenants. (New Yorker)
Ten great press conference meltdowns. (Holy Taco)
Joe Buck would rather go to Cardinals games as a fan instead of announce them. (Sports Media Journal)
May have missed it - all these Fed cuts? Doing more harm than good. (Marketwatch)

The reporter from Binghamton should just be happy that they didn’t credit Chris Mortensen for shooting the video.
But since he brought up video highlights, I truly wish ESPN would stop digitally zooming other networks’ highlights so that their logos and promos are taken out. They zoom that shit so much that the video turns into YouTube quality, or half the action is out of the shot.

Damnit, TBL…I don’t mind if you inadvertently link me to a borderline pr0n site, but…you sent me to Daily effing Kos!
I have to pay closer attention.
March 4th, 2008 at 2:44 pm
Who doesn’t love the DailyKos commenters! They make the HuffPo ones look sane by comparison!
412 - I feel your pain.

I’m not a psycho animal-lover, but that Marine should do some time in the brig—abusing animals is usually a sign of a f*****-up mind.

Kim K at WrestleMania, brilliant!
March 4th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
senor TBL. you are up in Lozoball. i’m so not on the ball of late there.
March 4th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
TBL, please slow down on the real estate market Kool-Aid…It isn’t home ownership that is creating problems, it’s home ownership by unqualified people (i.e. banks making loans to deadbeats with no income or qualifications). In large part, these are the same people who would be skipping out on their rent payments if they had taken that route…
March 4th, 2008 at 2:53 pm
I don’t know how that WBNG story ends, the link won’t work.
Can anyone fill me in?
March 4th, 2008 at 2:55 pm
How do I get away with skipping rent?
March 4th, 2008 at 2:57 pm
whats the deal with no women for the afternoon roundup? if i wanted to see a stall, i would go to the john
March 4th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Irish you know there are other sites to see pictures of girls, right?
/while agreeing with you
March 4th, 2008 at 3:01 pm
cbh49er, ESPN asked for footage, then they bitched about the quality and asked them to send it again (like they had nothing better to do, like put together their own newscast). Then when ESPN aired, they put up a credit to the network that was so small that you couldn’t read it. At least that’s his story.

Perhaps, having spent so much time in the bathroom over the course of the past few days, TBL now has a porcelain fetish.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:01 pm
I have never seen a 40..we only have 32’s here…
March 4th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
I am Lib/Dem, and sometimes even I am blown away by how far out there some of those people on Huff and Kos are. On the flip side, the right has some wackos as well
March 4th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
412, that was good
March 4th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
CRM-Skipping out on payments, not skipping payments…its called collection loss, and it has been increasing drastically over the last several months.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
I agree on the house market stuff…you act as if we are all fucked…its pretty simple the banks fucked up and allowed people to get loans they couldn’t pay for…house prices went too high now people that brought at the height of the market can’t get a big enough profit and those who got piggyback loans and are now foreclosing…not everyone has a right to own a house…banks got greedy and now they are paying for it. That being said unless you own your house outright the house owns you that is the way it has always been not just now with the sub prime shit.

Here irish - Edie Stall from A History of Violence.

CRM- you know what i like, and that wont do
March 4th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
You can all guess for yourselves if I’ve dropped a SFW or NSFW photo without warning. If you’ve seen the film I guess it depends on how much you trust me.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
Biscuits for irish.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
I hope TBL’s wife purchased the Detox Poncho from the J Peterman catalog.

Well played 412

Another thing the lowering of rates do. Banks make a significant amount of income from interest from loaning money which is of course based on those rates. When they make less they look to make up that income in fees. Fees generate billions of dollars for banks and the government is doing nothing to oversee it. Banks publish loan rates and you can make a somewhat comparative analysis when choosing which loan to obtain. However banks do not disclose fees and no such comparative analysis is made which limits consumer choice and hurts the individual.

Well how about Heidi Klum? Not enough nudity?
March 4th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Gee Irish…I’m really not sure which part of that site is NSFW. Would it be video with her rubbing her face with her own tits or all the other videos?
March 4th, 2008 at 3:22 pm

TBL - Not sure if you mean a slow-minded blogger - slowly blogger. or if this was supposed to read “lowly blogger”.

Wow–this post has turned into a porn link dump. Not that I’m complaining, or anything (1 hour, 8 minutes until I can get to the home computer!!)
March 4th, 2008 at 4:03 pm
How about those Red Sox fans…sounds like Ben Affleck and his pals to me
