This is why you do not gamble. You WILL end up on Letterman in dress. Actually that should better than some gamblers fates…
Glad that I didn’t make any wagers like this based on my performance last weekend.
Looking back at my picks for this weekend, I actually still feel good about them. That being said, Laffin and I split our picks (although he did not incorporate the spreads). We both like the Cardinals and the Chargers.

Osama Been Hidden!
I guess the State Department is really getting desperate with this whole Osama Bin Laden hunt. About time? This week they updated a 1998 photo of Bin Laden to show what he may look like today. This takes into considerations aging and also shows what he could look like without a beard.
It’s a pretty impressive rendering. I guess. Maybe.
In any case it seems like a fun game. It reminds me of creating a wrestler in the 1998 N64 hit WCW/nWo Revenge. It is definitely a hell of a lot more technically advanced but I think the same principals apply.

Must Read!
This weeks must read is from GQ contributor Jason Fagone. It is called The Dirtiest Player and gives insight into the shooting incident that Marvin Harrison has been linked to.
It is pretty much a must read, if for no other reason than to have some potential clarifications on the incident. It is of course very entertaining at the same time, and in addition the Philly PD is reopening the case with the help of the FBI.

Readers:
Please donate to the Haiti relief effort if you have not done so yet. You can do so very similar through Amazon.com. I remember when the 2004 Christmas tsunami hit Indonesia and I am sure you do too. What I specifically remember is being a freshman in college and not grasping the magnitude of what had just happened. Given it was the day after Christmas and the world revolves around the US, but it took awhile to really understand.
For those who could not or did not assist in 2004; now is a chance to make up for it. For those who did; you know how important the slightest donation can be.
Thanks for stopping by.
By the way, I bet many people are waiting for the day when we reveal that OWS is run by a bandit of prepubescent 13-year old boys. Might be true, might not be true. I’m not saying. However, I did not know that Deadspin was also run by 8th graders…
