gotta have a second team to rout for,why not the Phillies

Being a Bluejays fan is hard to do when they have to beat the 2 richest teams in the league...NewYork and Boston have team salaries that are 100 million more than the Bluejays so they will never make the playoffs.
So my second team im gonna rout for is the Philadelphia Phillies,for the only reason that they have Roy Halladay,one of the most know ex-Bluejays..i hope they can win a pennant for him cause if anyone deserves it,its him..he has been a top 5 pitcher for a long time.

RHP Roy Halladay(notes) will get his third shot at winning his 17th game Saturday, when the Phillies host the Milwaukee Brewers in the second game of a three-game series. For the first time since June, Halladay has lost two starts in a row. But Halladay has hardly been at fault in his last two starts. The Phillies have scored a total of two runs on those two games. In his first season in the National League, Halladay is a Cy Young Award favorite. He ranks second in the NL in wins (16), ERA (2.27) and strikeouts (190).

Jay Mariotti from Around the Horn gets arrested

ESPN blowhard Jay Mariotti was arrested overnight by Los Angeles police officers on a “suspicion of felony”. The rumor going around right now is that this involves a domestic dispute with his girlfriend.


Mariotti’s bail is a whopping $50,000,

Jay Mariotti is best known for his ESPN work on Around the Horn, but he also writes for Fanhouse.com and used to write for the Chicago Sun-Times before they fired him, probably for being irritating.

I love the show Around The Horn i watch it when i can and listen to it via podcast from itunes if i dont ctach it on tv..and Jay Mariotti is very critical of anyone in sports that does anything wrong at all..those ppl are usually the worst..its like the must homo-phobe person in the room turns out to be gay himself.
 

Thank god the show is off for a week because of the little league championships,it would be a great story to talk about on the show on monday,it will be interesting to see if they talk about it on PT|I with Kornheiser and Wilbon or on Around the Horn,or maybe the week off will give the story time to die down

no more toys at mcdonalds Why?

I read in the paper that there is a group that want to stop Mcdonalds from giving out toys with their happy-meals to children cause it entices kids to eat un-healthy fast food...this is classic case of having to blame someone else.
Are your kids driving themselves to Mcdonalds,and why jump on Mcdonalds,all fast food joints give out toys,and so does subway..so why just stop Mcdonalds..Chuky Cheese is an arcade in a pizza place..no healthy food there.
Mcdonalds has healthier choices too..you can get apple slices with a happy meal instead of fries..so getting rid of toys isnt gonna stopp people from eating there.
In hammonds plain near Halifax the Mcdonalds has a play area,so at least the kids get a little exercise...so its not the fast food joint that is the problem,its parents that cant say no to their kids,
The toy at any fast-food place is there to distract the kids for 5 minutes so YOU can actually eat your damn meal,the hammonds plain Mcdonalds is the best cause of the play area,i have time to eat my meal and read the paper..i think all fast-food places should install a play area.
so for the group that wants to get rid of toys..you are all nuts,i mean come on...the dentist gives out toothbrushes and dollarrama toys to our kids..are you gonna not bring your kids there either...he is giving out toys,it must be wrong.
Subway is supposedly healthy..but the chicken is still fake processed chicken just like the nuggets at Mcy D's,and the light mayo at subway is twice as fattening as regular miracle whip..but i guess Mcdonalds is a easy target.
Remember that documentary when some guy ate only Mcdonalds and gained a shit load of weight..well if you want to you can prove anything...cause after him there was a women that did the same thing,she ate only at Mcdonalds but she ate only the healthier options like salads and non breaded chicken,water instead of pop and she lost weight..so dont blame Mcdonalds or any fast food joint that your kids are fat...its your own choices that make a difference,choose the apple slices and enjoy the free toy.

Steven Segal and Ben Rothlesberger hooked on women

So where do you look for a female to do sexual favours?Well you get one on Craigs list.
At least that's where Steven Segal went to find a personal assistant,and then asked her to get it on,now she is charging him with sexual assaullt .
Jenny Mcarthy says that when she auditioned for under seige 2 she was asked by mister Segal to strip down and take off all her clothes...looks like Segal is gonna get the karate chop to the neck.
Big Ben Rothlesberger gets charged again for sexual assuallt within the same year,and now the Pittsburgh Steelers might want to trade him,they don't want someone like this as your team captain,people with money think they can do anything.they go loony cause with money there is nothing you can't do.

Blogging from my bunk

- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
As I sit in my bunk aboard the boat,I am glad that dumping day is done and the pots are in the water.
The weather wasn't bad as I expected,or I'm getting used to the ocean I guess,let's hope the pots fish and we make some money,since my eyes are red and burning cause of the salt water in my face I will talk to you guys later,I'll actually blog or rant about something soon.

Conan Obrien back on tv

- Blogging from my bunk using BlogPress from my iPhone
I just found out that Conan Obrien will be back on the air in November on TBS,I can't wait for him to be back after NBC let him go.
He is doing a live show and will be touring 30 different cities,and the tickets are selling out fast,you can follow him on teamcoco on facebook ,the fact that people are willing to pay to see him is a good sign,I thought for sure that Conan would be moving to Fox,that was the buzz around him.
Now for a bit of sports...the Philladelphia Eagles traded QB Donavon McNabb to their divisional rival the Washington Redskins,this does make the Redskins better and even better to finaly get out of the Nfc east sellar.

Tiger woods comercial

- Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone..blogging from my bunk on the way home from lobster fishing.
So did you see the new Tiger Woods comercial ,I guess alot of people are outraged that he uses his dads voice in the comercial as he just stares at you like someone just farted.
The problem most people have is that his father is dead,and that he is using his dead dads voice to make money.
But if you ask me and you probably didn't but if you did I figure since his dad was his greatest fan and would do anything to help Tigers career,and if he was alive he would of done the comercial anyhow,so I don't see the big deal,it was a great comercial .
And now that he's kept his club in the bag he is playing better,but we all know how hard it is to play hockey after a little nookie.

no money for the Yarmouth Cat,but 9 million for land,no problem.

So its final,no money for the Yarmouth Cat...but the province has no problem spending 9 million of buying back land,big fucking deal,they want to develop nature trails and such,the province spent 40 million on buying back land for nature reserves..to me this is stupid thing to do in this economy.
 The province has to make creating jobs a number 1 priority,they should expand the michelin plant to create more jobs,or looking for other industries to come to the province,or find ways to expand the Halifax water front,save the ferry in Yarmouth by adding a conventional boat that can take 18 wheelers or re open the tin mine..whatever they have to do.
 I personaly dont give a fuck about nature reserves or nature trails..it is completely stupid spending money on stuff like this when it could be put to good use like saving peoples jobs,there is plenty of forrest to go walk in and plenty of room for deer,its not like the deer knows where the nature reserve is,they just keep moving around...and if the government doesnt get their fucking shit together the whole damn province will be a nature reserve,cause there wont be nothing left.

Canada is looking like fools

So far at these olympics there has been a cauldron that didnt rise up from the floor..so 3 instead of four cauldrons came up and one of the flame bearers had to just stand there like a fool.
 Then there was a luger that crashes and dies on the track..a total of 73 crashes has happened before the olympics started in november when the olympians could come to vancouver to try the luge track.
 A bunch of men and women snowboarders were falling all over the place cause the snowboarding track is too steep and too fast.
 And it seemed that almost every skier fell because the hill is too fast and steep,and there is a retarded jump near the bottom,so everyone is going down,and i just heard that changes will be made to the downhill ski track.How many changes do they have to make,the luge was changed and now the downhill will be changed.

 Canada wanted to make thses olympics the best ,the hardest and the fastest races and tracks ever,and they did,and alot of people are eating major face plants in the snow,1 person is dead and another skier was airlifted to hospital...good work Canada.

Tiger Woods to speak Friday about behavior, future - ESPN

Tiger Woods to speak Friday about behavior, future - ESPN: "Tiger Woods will end nearly three months of silence Friday when he speaks publicly for the first time since his middle-of-the-night car accident sparked stunning revelations of infidelity.

“
He wants to begin the process of making amends and that's what he's going to discuss.
”
-- Mark Steinberg, Tiger Woods' agent
'This is not a press conference,' Mark Steinberg said Wednesday.
It will be Woods' first public appearance since Nov. 27, when he crashed his SUV into a tree outside his Florida home. Woods' only comments since then have been made through his Web site."

This Time, Ohno Finds His Lucky Turn

MLA's spending on worng things

So when Richard Hulburt says that he is truly sorry,what does he mean,does he mean that hes sorry for spending our money for his own use or sorry he got caught.The man spent 2400$ on a tv and paid 600$ to get it installed at his office,and he didnt even mention it when he was saying sorry for the 8000$ generator,that he said he was gonna pay back..but hes only paying it back now that he got caught.he claimed up to 29000$ in items and more,He isnt the only one to spend a shit load of our money on themselves ,Len Goucher was the MLA that spent the most,he bought 11 computers and 12 printers,that totalled to about 39000$ in electronics ,like 5 digital cameras and 4 video cameras.
wouldnt it be better off using this money on other things like computers for schools and supplies for ground search and recue,or funding of local events like the bike rally or town upkeep..or just about anything better than giving these assholes a better and cushy life so they can enjoy tvs and supper out at the best restaurants in Halifax...i mean come on,Richard resigned and he still gets 21000$ because he steps down and 42000$ pension.
Richard was 3rd on the list for the most spending.

Super Bowl Pick: Tough Choice Launched Colts' Dynasty -

Super Bowl Pick: Tough Choice Launched Colts' Dynasty ---The Indianapolis Colts are creeping up on the 'D'' word.

As in 'dynasty,'' an overused designation too often given to teams that win a couple of titles in a four-year period, as the Colts are trying to do.

Still, if the Colts beat the New Orleans Saints in the Super Bowl on Sunday, it will be their second NFL championship in four years, tying the Pittsburgh Steelers, who did so in 2006 and 2009. And it will put them one championship behind New England, although the Patriots' last title came after the 2004 season -- their unbeaten run was unexpectedly ended by the New York Giants two years ago.

More dynastic? It will cap off the Colts' eight consecutive seasons of double-digit victories, a period in which their regular-season record has been 99-29.

But it might never have happened if not for the decision made in 1998 to take Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf with the first pick of the draft. It was a closer choice than most people realize, something that was officially disclosed this week after 12 years of hedging. Well, maybe not hedging. But Colts officials usually claimed that it was always clear cut that they would choose Manning, who became a four-time MVP, over Leaf, whose name is synonymous with 'bust.''"

So when it comes to the superbowl on sunday i hope to hell that the Colts win the game,and maybe even another one next year...i want him to pass Brady in Superbowl wins,Touchdowns and games won.

Jerry Seinfeld's new show

A funny new show about real couples called "The Marriage Ref" season premiere thursday march 4th, produced by Jerry Seinfeld.As a huge Seinfeld fan and an owner of all 9 seasons of the show,a Kramer painting and a George Costanza in his underware picture in my hallway,i cant wait for this show,it looks really funny.

Its hosted by Tom Papa and they have a panel of celebrities that comment and dicide on who is right or wrong after watching clips of real life couples in relationship fights or arguments.

pro bowl..not full of pro bowlers

Having the pro bowl on the weekend before the Superbowl was a bad idea.Since the pro bowlers that are on the 2 teams in the superbowl dont play in the pro bowl it leaves out 14 starters from the roster,and some players that either lost in the division championships or are injured dont have to play either,so there is a bunch more not playing.

So the NFL has to go out and find players to fill the pro bowl roster,but these players were not selected by the fans or the media,they are just fill-ins.Like Vince Young is in the pro bowl,but he started the season on the bench and only played maybe half the games this year,but since so many people are opting out of the game ,fill-ins is what we get.The probowl players from the Saints and the Colts players are forced to be present at the probowl,then the teams want them to fly back home and return a week later in Miami so they can arrive as a team..this makes no sense...I think the pro bowl should be after the superbowl like it used to.
