8:21 pm - I didn't realize Yahoo! archived all your fantasy teams
The names of every fantasy team I've ever had:

The Obnoious Jeks
Mark Bellhorn's Stash
Squid Pro Quo
Zeke Bodin
Son of Obnoious Jeks
Overt Ops
Don't Tred on This
Wayne Enterprises
Unparalleled Dingers
Brosama Bin Laden

"Unparalleled Dingers" is clearly the winner of the group.

Also of note: Ever since placing 2nd of 11 teams in my very first league, I have come in last or second-to-last in almost every other league.

Fantasy baseball is lame.

11:42 am - Snowboarding: Still awesome
Astonishingly, I am now able to do things like get off the lift, and ride from the top of the mountain to the bottom without falling. I could stand to have more graceful technique, but hey, I'm learning.

I think I could do this every day.

12:39 pm - I've done far worse than kill you, Admiral.
I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you as you left me, as you left her; marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet... buried alive!

9:11 am - The worst lede ever
"The Patriots will visit a city with a Big Ben next season, but it won't be Pittsburgh, and the Ben is an iconic clock, not a quarterback named Roethlisberger."

Christopher L. Gasper, you have to go sit in the corner for 15 minutes.

Update: You know, it gets even worse. First of all, Big Ben is the bell, and not the clock. Second of all, the 2009 schedule hasn't been released. The Patriots very well could play in Pittsburgh next season!

12:11 pm - Matt Yglesias leaves actual wreckage in the wake of this blog post
Booya:
But kids, special and otherwise, need all kinds of stuff. They need decent childcare and nutritious food and they need to see doctors and dentists and they need clothing and they need decently maintained houses that are heated in the winter. They need parents with job opportunities and schedules that are flexible enough to take care of them. Nobody seriously denies that kids need this stuff. But lots of people are just indifferent to the fact that a huge proportion of our children don’t get their needs met. And it’s appalling.

4:48 pm - There are only two possibilities
Either John McCain believes the mud he is slinging about Obama, or he believes that lying is the best way for him to get elected. The first scenario shows that he lacks the judgment to be President. The second scenario shows that he lacks the integrity and the moral fiber to be President.

9:06 am - We, the Savers
This is very cool.

ING is one of those companies I have warm and fuzzy feelings toward. There aren't many of those. If the current economic crisis has taught us anything, it should be the importance of following these simple rules. No one is ever going to care about your money as much as you do, so treat it right. Starting a savings account with ING Direct is a good way to start.

See, I'm not even mentioning that if I refer you when you start your account, we each get a deposit bonus. That's how strongly I feel about this. Of course, if you did want to start an account and wanted us each to get a deposit bonus, I mean, I wouldn't be against that.
