Because When the Going Gets Tough... ?

Okay, you guys wanted an open thread to let off some steam before today's big game.  You've got one. 

But please heed the words of Mr. Bluto Blutarsky before you let anxiety take over.

The first, i could go either way…

Well, guys, I'm off to work

This is absolutely gonna kill me.

(In case you’re wondering, Cabrera seems to be getting along just fine with Raburn and Everett).

"Denard Span" is the distance between the media and Brett Farves' testicles.

Someone unleashed a ton of vandalism on his Wikipedia page today, and it’s all gold.

Span's or Favre's?

Funny either way, though. :)

If anyone listens to 97.1

There is the link to the Wiki page for Denard Span. Or at least what it was earlier… :D

Enjoy.

More fun with Wikipedia

Somebody’s been messing with Miggy’s page, too:

“Miguel Cabrera often plays while intoxicated. In an interview with WXYZ he had indicated that he performed better after ‘a few shots of tequila.’ Cabrera had also admitted, in the same interview, to wearing adult diapers to counteract his incontinence brought on by alcohol abuse. Cabrera said, ‘Sometimes I get so drunk, I just can’t hold it.’”

I'm supposed to be editing a paper right now

I want to email it to the prof before class starts (I’m skipping—it’s during the game) so he knows I’m not ditching to work on the paper.

Is the game being televised?

On FSN or ESPN?

I root for the Tigers, Pistons, Red Wings and yes, the Lions.

You can...

Life is all about choices, and its ok to make the wrong one sometimes if you just apologize… just ask miggy

Thats it ....

I am leaving work early. Lousy 4:07 start time … at least 7 minutes should buy me enough time to get home before Granderson leads things off with a triple down the 1st base line.
