Naughty List Correction
I spoke too hastily when demonizing all my fantasy football teams.  No sooner did I chastise them, when my last team decided to win the championship by almost 100 points.  So that makes this year’s grand total one 3rd place finish, one 2nd place finish, and one 1st place finish.  Maybe next year I’ll let some loyal readers (all 12 of them) pick my team names.  I think Fabio von Awesome...

High School Summer Reading Flashback
Recently Whitney and I had an interesting gmail conversation about high school English books that we never read.  I rarely finished a book assigned to me.  Mainly because when I was 16 the only literature I was interested in was a beat up magazine copy of Barely Legal. 1. Catcher in the Rye Whitney: All I remember is some part where a kid runs through corn off a cliff (maybe?) Ryan: I think I...

Ryan's Top 10 Albums of 2008. (As if you care)
I know that top ten lists are a little passe.  Especially at the end of the year.  But I don’t care.  No one makes you read this.  Unless you’re in a Somali prison with a gun to your head and being made to read this.  If that’s the case, I offer my condolences.  Maybe I’ll put up pictures of boobs later to help you out. 1.  Kings of Leon - Only By the Night.  Just simply...

Ryan's Naughty List
1.  Pete Wentz - Someone needs to get you male genitalia for Christmas 2.  My fantasy football teams - God I hate you.  I can always get second place but never 1st.  I guess I’m saying I’m good at getting in the 2 hole. 3.  Jack Stack barbecue beans - You know what you did to me 4.  Stetson - I’m still trying to get the smell off of my holiday outfit.  It burned a hole...

Ryan's Nice List
While I sleep-walk through my last 2 days of work this week, here is my Nice List for this Christmas 1. Megan Fox - Insert yule log reference here 2. Cole Aldrich - At least once a week Kevin gets a text from me explaining my willingness to fellate him.  He’s that good at basketball 3. Taquitos - They can be from the grocery store, a local Mexican restaurant, or Quik Trip.  I...

My car pulled a Peterson and resigned yesterday
Stupid car battery.  Having a snow day with a good excuse is all fine and dandy, but it doesn’t look good when you called in sick the day before.  So Wednesday is the new Monday for me. On the good news front, FOX 4 is broadcasting the Insight Bowl.  So if you have Time Warner, like myself, you actually get to watch it.  No word on if they’ll have it in HD as well.

A way for Adam Sandler to ruin movies he's not...
The Screen Actors Guild is voting on whether or not to strike.  One of their complaints is the money they lost last year when the Writer’s Guild had their strike.  Let me get this straight…all you actors that stood outside and picketed with the writers now want to get paid for the 100 days you were out of work?  Even though you actively helped prolong the amount of time you were out of...

You may know Vinnie Jones as Juggernaut from X Men 3 or his roles in Gone in 60 Seconds, Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, or my favorite role when he played himself on an episode of “Extras”.  Well apparently he got in a bit of a bar brawl in South Dakota.  It appears to me that he’s taking his typecast as “resident hard ass” a little too seriously. Dude,...

News Post aka Standerson Cooper 360
1.  Gov. Rod Blagojevich of Illinois was arrested by federal authorities today.  This is after he tried to sell Barack Obama’s vacant Senate seat and strong-arm the Chicago Tribune into firing editors that were critical of him.  This couldn’t look any poorer unless he ended up selling that Senate seat to Steve Bartman. 2.  Protest groups are urging gays and lesbians to “call...

The name was still on purpose
Pete Wentz aka Tickle Me Emo says that his son was an accident. 1.  Go to hell 2.  I hope your kid never reads that.  No matter what, you tell your child that they are special and that they were born because mommy and daddy loved each other and made him with gingerbread, sprinkles, and love. 3.  Clearly he was an accident since we all know Joe Simpson is probably the father.

Last post, I swear
An MU police officer issued warrants for the KU Football team for “robbing” the Mi-losers of a victory.  The Lawrence officer’s response is simply awesome.  Thanks, Liz, for the link.  I promise that’s the last Border War post I’m putting up.  I’ll have some more gems about other topics soon.
