Re: Monday Night with Raiders. Why do they advertise it? And who will they get to visit the booth to make this interesting? JFK

Actually, Kitna tried to start a fight with DeAngelo Hall after Hall gave him a forearm to the head while sliding. Kitna immediately flipped them over and started rabbit-punching Hall, leading to a general shoving match which feature Kitna shoving a lineman while helmetless. Hall got 15 yards for the headshot.
I like Kitna. After the game a reporter asked him if he thought it fired up the team and he honestly answered apparently not, because we had two straight penalities and an interception. (on a freakin’ shovel pass that Kitna somehow threw too high to a cold Eddie Drummond, who knocked it up into the air. Kitna did make the touchdown-saving tackle)
Apparently Marinelli brought his how to stop Vick notebook along from Tampa.
Noboby seems to have much to say about my Lions beating Atlanta.

Good calls by MJD today:
1) Noting karma getting the best of T.O., with the realization that it probably won’t be the last time it happens.
2) Calling for Santonio Holmes to be chained to the bench. I’ve seen Santonio Holmes fumble at least once in every game he’s played in this year.
3) Calling for John Mayer to stop writing pussy-assed crap and use his guitar hero powers for good.
And though optimism about the Lions is usually misplaced, I agree with witless chum here. Good win by the Lions.

I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a team this good plauged this badly by dumb mistakes. It’s unreal.
It’s surreal. Never seen anything like it. Of course, when a team loses 5 games the same way and nothing gets fixed, it’s most likely the result of having a lame duck coach who stopped caring on February 6th. It takes a special kind of incompetence to lead one of the most talented teams in the league to a 2-6 record. Time for Billy to go to his fat condo in Myrtle and entertain offers from other teams for a year. You just can’t waste a young talented team on a coach that doesn’t give a fuck.

Ah, the deadly EA Sports NFL “Head Coach” cover curse rears its ugly head.

Can the refs please stop with all the ridiculous penalty calls, Troy Brown got a taunting call yesterday when he tossed the ball to the ref.
That was the Miller Light flag of the day.

A few years ago, my gf won tickets to see John Mayer in concert, which put me in a bad mood since I was prepared for an hour and a half of Wonderland-like crap. But when performing live, he would go off on these solos and rock the shit out of his guitar, and I would think, “This guy is amazing! Why doesn’t he do this on his CDs?”
Then I saw him in an interview a few months later where he said you wouldn’t believe how much poontang (my verbiage, not his) “Your Body is a Wonderland” got him, and I understood.

Btw, MJD- love your work over at AOL. But do you ever wonder what you got yourself into when you find yourself preparing for a Monday night of liveblogging the Raiders and Seahawks?

You know, for some reason, liveblogging the bad games can be more enjoyable than doing the good ones. I just go into it with more a sarcastic prick mindset, and when that’s the case, I think everyone wins.
As for Danks… he’s actually in prison. He’s doing a three to five strech on cocaine trafficking charges. Okay, that’s not true… but he did move hundreds and hundreds of miles away, and the Smorgasbord misses the hell out of him.

Dear Island of Misfit Toys gang:
It’s almost that time of year so I thought I’d drop you guys a line and let you know I empathize with your plight. Nobody seems to want to play with me either.
Happy Holidays.
