Happy post-Thanksgiving all you birds stuffed full of bird. I hope you ate yourself into an L-tryptophan coma (I'm not looking that up, spelling is for sissies) and most important of all, you had pie.

Everybody likes pie.

Top ten teams are like the number 2 guy in charge of Al-Qaeda, they don't seem to last very long.

LSU (7) survived against Arkansas last night, 20-17

Notre Dame (1) vs. USC, 8pm
Alabama (2) vs. Auburn, 3:30pm
Georgia (3) vs. Georgia Tech, noon
Florida (4) vs. Florida St. (10), 3:30pm
Oregon (5) vs. Oregon State (15), 3pm
Kansas State (6), idle
Stanford ( vs. UCLA (17), 6:30pm
Texas A&M (9) against Missouri, 7pm

Have some more pie. What could it hurt at this point?

My Tide wins today against a hapless Auburn. Wins the SEChamp in a squeaker against Them Dawgs, then on to the NatChamp once again, by which time my wardrobe will consist mainly of Alabama T-shirts.

Now, whom to they face for the title? ND or Oregon? Only the Ghost of Bear Bryant knows for sure. IIRC, ND was the only team the Bear never beat.

Why yes, yes I did. I also showed him the finer points of the West Coast Offense. He was attentive, which is good. But he doesn't talk much.

He's adorable, but spends nearly all of his time ~~eating and pooping~~ processing food. Heh, his little face turns beet red about every twenty minutes and I hand him to the grandkids, "Here, he smells funny. Bring him back soon, I still have to show him what a Wildcat formation looks like."

This is GGK #1. He's on track to double his birthweight next week, when he'll be 1 month old. Born six pounds and change, already weighs ten, can almost hold his head up already and is strong as a middle lineman.

I told the GKs to just send him to Tuscaloosa today, let them feed, clothe. educate, and turn him into another Heisman Trophy winner, and they can pick him up in 22 years.

My whole family actually watched those. Overall, the treatment was not nearly as hostile to capitalism I expected from the History Channel and I learned things I had not known about the 19th Century Titans of Industry.

On the downside, they repeated things so many times after commercial breaks that it almost caused some of my kids to quit watching. For my part, seeing beer summit Prof Gates Jr. several times was hard to take.

105 I hope you ate yourself into an L-tryptophan coma (I'm not looking that up, spelling is for sissies)

It's spelled BULLSHIT.

" Turkey does have tryptophan. But all meat has tryptophan at comparable levels. Cheddar cheese, gram for gram, has more. While cheddar isn't the most exciting cheese in the cheese cellar, no one connects it with sleep. Turkey gets singled out for no other reason than being eaten during the biggest meal of the year.

In essence, big meals with any food containing tryptophan can cause sleepiness. The real culprits are all those carbohydrates from potatoes, stuffing, vegetables, bread and pie. The massive intake of carb-heavy calories stimulates the release of insulin, which in turn triggers the uptake of most amino acids from the blood into the muscles except for tryptophan."

I only went to a strip club once. As I took my seat at the bar, the guy two seats away hauled off and clocked the guy sitting next to me, who went flying and knocked me off my stool.

It was just that fast: Walked in, sat down, BOOM! On the floor.

The bartender was very apologetic and polite.

109 Just went out for a cigar and turned on the radio. Local HBCU is playing a playoff game right now, One of the announcers lapses into what can only be described as sputtering Jive whenever he gets excited. Can't stop listening.

Yeah, I never met a bartender at a strip club who had any problem with depression. Imagine getting not only a paycheck, but tips from drunks in an invironment of scantily clad babes with great asses, big tits, or both.

That is still on my bucket list.

113 The turkey = sleepiness is like most food allergies: it's mind over matter.

Researchers will say things like "well it COULD be due to the high levels of this, that or the other," because they are too timid to say "it's all in your head."

114 The local high school games on local access channel are actually pretty good. They use the NFL teams stadium for the championship. The players love it. Competition is evil and racist. Everyone should get a ribbon and a trophy so no one is offended.

Bartenders who aren't drunks themselves tend to bang the hottest waitresses and often, customers. I would imagine the strippers more than occasionally give it up too, but then strippers tend to have abusive boyfriends, so maybe the wise bartender stays away from that mess.

One of my best friends was the head DJ at a big club.
We were at a party after they closed and he walked into a bedroom, laid down on the bed and shot himself. No note, not a word to anyone before that we know of.

120 Congrats, Mr. O, well done. Marriage is really good for a man. Otherwise we do a never-ending series of stupid, self-destructive things to ourselves. But be forwarned: the maxim that men get married thinking their woman will never change. while women get married thinking they will change their man is 100% true. She is already lying in wait for you in ways you cannot yet imagine.

So I'm thinking, that if Florida loses, and if Notre Dame loses, then it will be the SEC winner vs. Oregon for the national championship. Actually that might be true even if Florida doesn't lose.

No way. Florida is 4th in the BCS and playing 10th ranked FSU. How can Oregon (ranked 5th) beat Oregon State (ranked 15th) and leapfrog into the big game? Check Florida's BCS computer rankings.

Sux about Hector Comacho dying. I fondly remember the mid-weight glory days with him, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Felix Trinidad, Julio Caesar Chavez, etc. Comacho was a deeply troubled man, may he RIP.

I don't expect people to feel sorry for boxers, but there are a lot of fighters from that era whose lives would have been infinitely better had Don King never been born.

Because the pollsters will give Oregon the bump because (a) they don't want to see an all-SEC national championship game again, and (b) Florida's loss was a fairly pathetic one (9 pts? srsly?), while Oregon's loss was a close one in OT.

124 I was surprised to read a long profile of Floyd Mayweather which described him as the prick I always thought he'd be, but also as a shrewd and independent businessman in the business of boxing. We'll see if it lasts into his retirement, but for now he's got things set up pretty well.

Florida's one loss was by 8 to 3rd ranked Georgia, whereas Oregon lost to 8th ranked Stanford. In each instance the teams you're citing are lower ranked. Still, what the hell do I know, I'm not a BCS-ologist or anything, I just don't see it mathematically.

Good luck if you have a rooting interest, though. I'm an LSU fan, and we are just a single coffin nail (to be driven shortly when Bama kills Auburn) away from being eliminated from the SEC title game. Well, we've already played ourselves out of contention on the field, I'm just waiting for the official notification letter.

What's your point? You avoid that working where? At least at the strip club, you get to see them in their underwear.
