On My List
October 10, 2005
Yes, it has been forever since I wrote here, *insert normal excuses here*, but after a weekend chock full of sports, I figured now is a better time than any to let you know who is on my good and bad sides.
On my good side...the Dawgs. Shock and company put to rest any reservations people may have about Georgia being for real when they put it to Tennessee, in Knoxville, on Saturday.
On my bad side...the collective body that is the College Football Press. When will they wake up and realize that USC looks like men playing boys because that is an exact representation of the PAC-10. And don't even get me started on Virginia Tech, who has beat the likes of Duke, NC State and Marshall, and played only one top 25 team, yet still sits and number 3. Meanwhile, SEC East teams slug each other right out of the National Championship race every year. Playoffs anyone?
On my good side...Adam LaRoche's bat. Hit a big grand slam to put the Braves up early in Game 4 of the NLDS.
On my bad side...Adam LaRoche. Lolly gagged his way around second on his way to getting thrown out at home later in the game. I am pretty sure that either one of my Grandmothers could have scored on the play. Turns out that run would have come in handy.
On my bad side...the Atlanta bullpen. And while we are at it, every Atlanta bullpen since 1991.
On my good side...John Daly's driver.
On my bad side...John Daly's putter.
On my good side...Keenan McCardell. Because I need him to have a big game Monday night to save...
On my bad side...the rest of my Fantasy Football team, who put it a pretty blah effort on Sunday (at least it looked that way from my couch). Speaking of which...
On my bad side...Fantasy Football owners who start one or more players currently on a Bye week.
And finally...
On my good side...the mute button on my remote. One thing you learn after watching a weekend of sports: There are more windbags out there who like to hear themselves talk than you can count. Fortunately, we still have Munson.

You've returned!... and a mere 6 months later, too!
ATL *choked* big time last night. I understand the outcome considering the relative youth of the team but how come they make it tradition to blow it early in the postseason? They almost always prove themselves good enough to win it all but simply can't go all the way.
