Okay...I am Boycotting Snickers Too. What is up with bringing "down" a Canadian Satellite?

Saw this again on ESPN. What the hell?

You have to be a Horse's Ass to be a Bears fan? No but Hester's Ass does not help them play with any enthusiasm

I have been a Bear's fan since Gale Sayers. It's painful. But sometimes you just have to laugh.

CNN Finally Fires Narcissist Lou Dobbs

It's quite fitting that he messes up the first sentence of his "please believe me, I didn't really get fired speech". The only question of course is why it took CNN all these years to terminate a guy who spewed so much garbage. The platform that CNN now owns should never again be used night after night to damage our national soul.

KTLA All Day

I must admit, I miss this station now that I am not on the west coast. Or at least, their commercials:

The New U.S. Ambassador to Canada, David Jacobson, has a blog.

All in all, it would appear that he's actually been well briefed. Having said that, the lack of french and referring to Quebec as "la belle province" is not likely to endear him to our francophone friends. They're also not likely to be thrilled with him sending his son to the "maudits anglais" McGill. I don't understand that either but for different reasons: it's falling apart, desperately unfunded at the undergrad level and a shadow of its formal self. Probably another post, another time...

How did he get the job? He raised a shitload of cash for Obama. It's got to be a bit frustrating to career diplomats to see a guy with ZERO experience get such a sweet, do-nothing, safe, high paying, perk-loaded job.

C'est la vie? Probablement, c'est la vie politique.

Joe Buck...Is this the best we can do?

Really? Running to turn on the radio to counteract the nausea this guys creates.

University of Phoenix Skewered by SNL's "University of Westfield"

This is a fairly obvious shot at for-profit education in general, but the University of Phoenix in particular. Even Shaquille got an MBA -- ;-)

Get High with a little help from my friends? PM Harper...lays it down

This is just too funny ... that I don't need to say much:
