It’s our 2nd favorite British person in the world, Cheryl Cole! … since you’ve been reading this site for awhile, this graphic about housing won’t surprise you … Duff McCain’s daughter thinks Obama is “cute” … the press does a solid job to stop the taxpayer funded fun for AIG … the way to get bailed out if you’re in a dicey home situation: Stop paying your mortgage … oh, and the credit crunch is just beginning …

you know every one of those seminary guys in that pic with McCain’s daughter found a bathroom immediately after that picture…then attended confession.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:08 am
agreed, miz. a lot visually to like about mccain’s daughter.

Been itching for a good fraud post, TBL.
What time’s the Rays post going up? Want to clear out an hour.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:10 am
Obama is a good looking guy.
/as un-Strahan as possible.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:12 am
Maggs, I guess BYU is no longer nationally relevant? Again.

RE: Bonds
It wasn tjust Bonds. That red headed “Mask” looking freak who found his name in the Mitchell Report couldn’t get signed either. He actually sent out a letter to every team asking them to give him a shot at cracking the line-up and no team sent anything back. Anybody who was in the Mitchell Report was frozen out of baseball unless they were already signed.

Oh did BYU lose? Tears of infinite sadness fo KC Resident. The BYU Tigers (??) had a good run of established relevency though. Two years is something to hang your hat on, really, USC-esque to be certain.
/sincere
October 17th, 2008 at 8:18 am
still can’t believe the rays lost that game.. staggering..
October 17th, 2008 at 8:20 am
I can. The Sox have similar mojo that the Yanks had in the 90s. They are always just a big inning away.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:21 am
Yup, Boston signed Mystique and Aura after the 03 season. They’ve been a big help!
October 17th, 2008 at 8:22 am
taking away all the “mojo/clutch/”big inning away” nonsense, its pretty damn hard to score 7 runs in with 7 outs left against ANYBODY
October 17th, 2008 at 8:22 am
cracker jack, that was my opening line today.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:24 am
thank you, cortes.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:25 am
lol sparty i was just saying, the reason they scored 7 wasn’t because “they have mojo and are one big inning away”.. they got lucky.. it happens
October 17th, 2008 at 8:25 am
mystique and aura are the strippers from Rexy’s bachelor party, right? (He’s not getting married; he just throws himself random bachelor parties.)
October 17th, 2008 at 8:27 am
save it for the boston post, punks.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:28 am
NO!
/was a defiant kid
//just kidding
October 17th, 2008 at 8:29 am
save it for the boston post, punks.
get off my lawn you damn kids!
October 17th, 2008 at 8:29 am
crazy game last night
nice pic of Cheryl Cole
October 17th, 2008 at 8:35 am
read that otl / not eticket piece yesterday .. nice work weinreb
October 17th, 2008 at 8:35 am
free speech, neener neener neener!
October 17th, 2008 at 8:36 am
The Rays SHOULD still win… it has to be something like a 25% chance Boston wins the series. I would take the percentages.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:36 am
TBL, who is your #1 favorite British person?
October 17th, 2008 at 8:37 am
Not only should Gross have caught Drews weak liner in the 9th, no one’s mentioned this, but why he didn’t catch Pedroia’s dinky single in the 7th that bounced 1 foot in front of him. He makes that catch and the game is OVA! Why Balfour was in for as long as he was is anyones guess, he was just throwing straight fastballs and no one was missing. Those last 3 innings was mismanagement 101 by Maddon.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:38 am
his #1
October 17th, 2008 at 8:39 am
this girl i used to work with. v cool.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:39 am
Fat, idiotic Dodgers’ fan throw beer at the cops, and then get dealt with real quick.
This was funny. Didnt know that lovie smith and Gary Mathews Jr. work for the LAPD as well. You saw when the beer was thrown Manny moved real quick.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:41 am
TheBigLead : erase my comment! I’m just to anxious to wait for a post on that game!
Fuckin Rays!
October 17th, 2008 at 8:43 am
That Dodgers fan looked like Joe the Plumber.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:45 am
The New York Mets were very impressed with the Rays bullpen last night.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:51 am
CRM-Its all Romans fault he started talking about how his mom was compared them to the 1969 mets…More like the 2008 mets. After that Boston started their comeback.
October 17th, 2008 at 8:53 am
Not only should Gross have caught Drews weak liner in the 9th, no one’s mentioned this, but why he didn’t catch Pedroia’s dinky single in the 7th that bounced 1 foot in front of him.
So you saw it too. Gabe Gross is a lazy bitch. I hate him they should have had Hinske on the roster.

“Oh did BYU lose? Tears of infinite sadness fo KC Resident.” Mags
Um, I said TCU would destroy them. Nice try. Again.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:02 am
details, details, KC. your “details and facts” don’t belong here.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:09 am
KC, established relevence must have a shelf life of 2 years. That’s a shame.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:09 am
I just hope the BYU loss has shown TBL the light…mid major teams are not worth a spot BCS games over the likes of a big 12 or SEC team. Fans of big 12/sec teams can rejoice…now all we need is for BYU to beat Utah and all will be right in the world.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:11 am
You’re discrediting relevance after 1 game?
Why, that’s almost as crazy as judging a coach after 6 games!
October 17th, 2008 at 9:15 am
@Nick
That is what they get for playing in the MOuntain West conference. Irrelevence after one loss, as it should be.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:15 am
Not one “game”, one loss.
October 17th, 2008 at 9:18 am
Not one game. Not one loss. One ass-kicking from opening bell to ending gun… That was very one-sided…

RE: Mike Francesa
Mushnick is a bit of a one-trick pony, but I admit, he’s pretty good at that one trick.

Is there a Kate Beckinsale sighting in our Roundup future?
