Mr. Ray-Man, make mine a Dr. Peppuh

Sixty-eight seniors were commissioned as Cadet Officers this past Saturday night. None of them made the "Holland Leap".

*The Holland Leap references Jack Holland being promoted from Squad Leader to Brigade XO in the fall of 2002.

John Stossel Leaving ABC For Fox

I am sure you are a big fan of John Stossel.

Congratulations

'09 Benedictine Cadets. Region (3)AAAAA City Champs.

Next up: Jeff Davis and 7 other schools no one has ever heard of. Wait, why do we keep playing in AA? Oh wait, I forgot, that way we don't have to keep making the exhausting 0.4 mile drive to Varnedoe Drive to continue dominating 5A rivals and easily afford ourselves the press and prestige that comes from a first-round playoff bid in the state's highest classification.

Ugh!! Who would want that anyway?? Bring it on Jeff Davis!! We're ready!!

P.S.: Does anyone know what/where Jeff Davis is and is anybody actually going or even thought about going?

Change

Some people have been begging for a new helmet design for years. I was not one of those people, but I can live with this. It's hard to see, but there is a white stripe down the middle. This is the first helmet logo BC has used since 1992, which was a script "Cadets". I still thinks the school needs to establish one definitive logo. Currently, all we have are two letters that are arranged in a number of different ways and in a number of different fonts.

Double Down

This is KFC's new Double Down sandwich. It is made of two Original Recipe fillets, bacon, Swiss and pepper jack cheese and something called the Colonel's sauce. Currently it's being tested in only two states, so, Pat, you'll have to be patient.

No Peanuts Due to El Nino

BC '09 Season Predictions

A Show for Snuffy

Variety reports that FX has picked up drama project "March to Madness" from executive producer Don Cheadle. The series chronicles the glory and the seedy side of college basketball. The project comes from writer Joel Silverman, while Pete Segal ( The Longest Yard ) is set to direct. Also attached to the project alongside Silverman, Segal and Cheadle are former college basketball coach Dave Miller and Segal's producing partner, Michael Ewing. "March" will revolve around a corrupt college basketball program that cheats its way to the "March Madness" NCAA basketball tournament. The story will be told through the eyes of the college coach, whose idealistic approach to the job has slowly been eroded by the compromises he's forced to make.

Why Twitter is better than Facebook

I have been on facebook since 2004 and it is something that has always kept me interested. When we are 50 year olds' we can look at what the status is of our friends and people we met along the road of life. That is great, but facebook has become too involved with stupid applications. For instance, a girl I dated for a month sent me a application on How Jacksonville am I? What the Fuck. I took the test and scored a 89 and was listed as a 10-15 year resident. Last time I checked I have been living here for 2 1/2 years. I will always get on facebook, but enough is enough.



Now in comes Twitter, a forum where you post what you are doing or thinking in 140 words or less. Even though I do not get on that much, It is the new fad that is catching on. I follow Stewart Cink, Colin Cowherd and Tony Barnhart just to name a few. I also follow fellow Blogger Snuffy, and there is always a interesting read with him. As for my favorite celebrity it has to be Stewart
Cink. He is hilarious,plus he lets you know where you need to eat, what to drink and how he is playing. He has never responded to me but when he realizes I am a huge Techie he will reply sooner or later.



All I ask is to just try Twitter out b/c it is a lot better than leaving a facebook status.

Capitalism: A Love Story

If anybody is interested, here is the preview from that big fat piece of shit Michael Moore for his new movie. He basically just tries to storm the AIG office, then interviews some people that are upset because the rich people got everything, and they got nuthin, and that ain't right. And he keeps asking where our money is. Michael, it's probably stuck in one of your fat folds, which means we will never find it.

Let's not go there...

Okay

Just in time for football season

From the looks of it, this may be served in a dip can. Only in Athens.

Who Says It's a "Little" League??

Has anybody else seen the massive pitcher for Southern California in the Little League World Series?? This kid is a 6'2, 205lb twelve year old. Hats off to his father for his potent seed. I couldn't find a picture of him in action on the mound, but I was able to find some pictures from him myspace profile.

Here he is just chillaxin' on the couch:




And Here he is staring down Hulk Hogan in a leotard.



And here he is on a family vacation to New York City.




...Those kids don't stand a chance.
