Week in Review

Another wild one, as we have a couple of unlikely teams over halfway to Bounty Bowls. We start at O’Neals, where We Got Nothin’ has come out of nowhere to win three straight weeks at O’Neals. On to the Bards, where the Sofa Kingdom ended the Dyfunktion’s two week run. At the Vous, it was “Where’s the Beef” cruising again this week with yet another double digit win. The Dalembert Report pulled off their 2nd straight win at the Black Sheep, spoiling the return oone of Johnny’s all-time favorites from the old school, WTF. At the Good Dog, MAGMA returned to try to take back their rightful place as kings of the hill, but got clipped by Team Awesome, as it was Team Awesome’s 3rd consecutive win. Finally, on to a ridiculously packed Bards,where the Kingdom and the Omelette both had a perfect score going into the final round, but finished tied for 2nd, as the Hurtin’ Bombs took home the gold. Scoreboard coming soon.

Let’s Discuss

Barack Obama Official small.jpg
I don’t really cover a lot of politics here because there are plenty of other places to find that, but with the election coming up it’s kind of hard to avoid, especially because I do like to discuss it. A few days ago, my good friend Parsnip Cabbagepaw, who is a Republican, said that he thinks that Obama is more cult leader than politician. To back it up, he posted link to this column in the comments section this morning. I disagree, but it’s all fine and good. But he then says that the Republicans would rather face Obama than Hillary, to which I say, “You have lost your mind! Sir!” This is obviously the latest desperate Republican spin in a year in which they have almost no chance of winning, barring a catastrophic event. The only thing Republicans agree on in 2008 is Hillary Clinton, and their common bond is a vile hatred of her. She is the only thing that can bring the Republicans out to vote in large numbers, and if Obama does pull off this upset, those same Republicans will stay home. The Boston Herald writer above simply feels what we all feel at some time or another about the people we choose to follow. Is McCain a bitter, angry man who would let that bitterness control his foreign policy? Would Hillary annoy the living s*** out of us with her phony attempts at sincerity? (“I found my voice!”) Hell, I’m sure Obama is a little worried about this responsibility himself. And more importantly, if he is able to run a country anywhere near as effectively he has run his campaign, and if he is able to inspire the country the way he has over the past year, I think it is a chance well worth taking. Your thoughts?
