March Musings...

From time to time, I'd like to roll-out "Musings" a kind of blog for the blog if that makes any sense. Ready?

1. Brett Favre retires--Let's be honest. The guy threw way too many interceptions to be considered the greatest quarterback of all-time. I'd take Brady, Montana, and if you forced me at gunpoint, Phil Simms. He won a Super Bowl, had a great career, and even had a cameo in There's Something About Mary. Now let's move on already. A compiler of stats, he'll likely be remembered as the Rafael Palmeiro of quarterbacks. Too rough? Deal with it.

2. Clinton Wins Ohio and Texas in the Clutch--Like a cockaroach, you can't kill her. She had to win these primaries. And its looking likely that she and Obama will be running mates in the general election against my boy McCain. Interestingly enough, Clinton and Obama, if given the choice, probably would not pick the other as a running mate. The point here is that the Democratic Party elders might not give them the option. It'll be a tension convention at the convention for sure.

3. NY Islanders Stone NY Rangers...again. The most remarkable rivalry in sports. Whenever the two teams meet, it's always close and down to the wire. It's almost as if the Rangers play down to the Islanders. More galling was that the Rangers put on a barrage of shots in the first period only to be outscored by the Islanders and stoned by back-up Wade Dubielewicz in the nets. And Jagr continues his misery on the shootout. Is this a mental thing with this guy? Including last night's loss, the all-time record Rangers vs. Islanders breaks down like this 98-93-19-3...At MSG: 59-35-11-2...At Long Island: 39-58-8-1.

4. Is it me or do all the guys on American Idol suck his year? For that matter, the girls too. As Randy might say, "it's just a-ight for me man." If I'm keeping it real.....yo.
