Drunk Bosses, Other Civil Wars and The Future of this Blog



DRUNK BOSSES


My work "party" actually ended up pretty fun last night. Two of my four bosses were borderline shitfaced by the time I left at like 6:30. I'm looking forward to the fact that two of them have kids getting married this summer. I'm totally comfortable getting blacked out with them, but I know my wife won't be.


CREIGHTON-NEBRASKA


Nearly forgot about Creighton v. Nebraska on Sunday afternoon. Always one of the games of the year in Nebraska. The atmosphere for these games was always electric. And although most CU fans root for Nebraska football (which is completely, and utterly retarded) there is some real hatred. It is very similar to the Wisconsin-Marquette rivalry. Especially since CU and MU don't have football. And NU-UW are the big state schools. Obviously, I'm on the opposite side of this rivalry. Generally, CU holds their own as they have the better basketball tradition and teams. Almost every game comes down to the last minute. Even though CU has sucked balls this year, I see the Phone Booth crowd of 17,000 carrying them to a tight win.


OFF SHORE GAMBLING


I'm not going to lie. The daily wagering posts have injected new life into the blog. I'm giddy reading about it. And I am super tempted to open an account of my own. And SportsBottle is openly daring me to do it. I love sports books more than just about anything. Obviously, I'm concerned about the legalities, and of losing my money. And getting divorced. The question I have is whether this site is going to end up being a gambling website, and whether the Dept. of Homeland Security will begin monitoring its content. Nobody is ever really able to decide whether or not these transactions are OK. I realize millions of people do it, and its probably pretty low on the list of government things to do. But millions also do drugs, and I definitely wouldn't run out and buy an eight ball.

Watch Out For 'Skers

Armed Robbery? Pffft.

Former Nebraska running backs will KILL YOU. I'm writing this to say that it is ironic that Thunder Collins is joining Lawrence Phillips in the 'pen. I'm also writing because I hate Nebraska. But does anyone honestly think NU didn't recruit these guys knowing of their "character issues"? (i.e. killing, raping, running people over with cars while they were on a playground). The people of Nebraska should really stop pretending how proud of a program it is. Because it is Florida St. North. Or Miami North. If Florida St. and Miami players killed more people. I find it awesome that under "Also See" on the right side of the page it lists: "Ex-football player Phillips convicted of seven felonies".

All Wisconsin does is get sweet deals on shoes and drive drunk on mopeds.
