Random Thoughts

Well I though that since I named this blog A Shell of Empty Thoughts maybe I should make a post of just random things ive pondered over the past few days...

• Isn't David Beckham signing a 5 year $250 million contract with an MLS team kind of like Brett Favre recieving a 5 year $250 million contract with a Canadian Football Team? I mean its not like hes a player with tremendous upside potential (like that, Will?) or one in his prime. We all know his best years are in the past now. Oh, well. MLS competition will be as leisurely as a retiree golf game at the country club for Beckham.
• When the Cowboys signed Van der Jagt I read an article that actually ended by saying "we'll see if Van der Jagt can do for the Cowboys with one leg what Romo has done with one arm." I wonder what that columnist is saying now.
• If the New Orleans Saints wind up playing against the Indianapolis Colts in the Super Bowl can we please not see a Peyton Manning childhood slideshow of his days at Newman every 5 minutes?
• And if we are subjected to this torture can we please make a drinking game out of it. Think about it. Between the commercials and pre-game interviews/sappy montages you'd get paced quickly.
• As many of you know I have been a fan of Baby Boy's "The Way We Live (Saints Remix)" for a while and have introduced many of you to this amazing New Orleans rap original. But I have noticed this song coming up everywhere, now. I mean its out of hand how many people know it. All of the people I work with are between 35 and 60 years old and they all know the song. I'm getting it sung into my phone from Philadelphia. There were 7 year old girls on the news singing the song. It's being played at every Saints game. Its the Number 3 most played song on B97 in New Orleans. Could this song be the 2007 version of the Superbowl Shuffle? Only in New Orleans...
• WHO DAT?
