While I Was Out

Sorry for the scarcity of updates lately. I've moved from playing limit cash games over at Full Tilt to no limit cash games. Now that every hand has the potential to be a $200+ swing in either direction, I have to be a bit more focused. So that means no multitasking. On the bright side, there is the potential that I'll end up a table with Gilbert Arenas during halftime of a Wizards game; and if so, I'll try to strike up an online conversation with him. My guess is that his online id would be something like, "Assassin0." I'd also guess that he goes all-in quite frequently and is quite happy just to be right 1 out of every 3 tries.

Catching up on the day...

Kansas City continued along their path with destiny by being shutout by the Chicago White Sox to drop to 2-12 on the season. The Royals have lost 10 in a row and 86% of their games this season. In their last three games, they've scored a total of one run. The next three opponents for KC are Cleveland, Minnesota, and Oakland. This is going to get ugly.

Nomar Garciaparra is on his way for Las Vegas for a brief rehabilitation stint. I have visions of Ned Coletti driving Nomar out into the middle of nowhere and burying him in the desert, "Casino" style.

David Blaine's next stunt will be to submerge himself in a "human aquarium" in New York City where he will live for seven days. The only way this can be even remotely entertaining is if while Blaine is swimming around his tank, he has a long string of poo trailing behind him.

Joey Harrington will become a Miami Dolphin in the near future. This works out well for him because Miami is a well coached, up-and-coming team, and their quarterback (Culpepper) may not be ready to play on opening day 2006. Now the only thing Harrington needs to be successful is to learn how to throw the ball to the guys on his own team.

The Dallas Cowboys signed safety Marcus Coleman to a one year contract under the NFL rule that Bill Parcells is not allowed to coach unless he has an over-the-hill former player of his on the roster.

Just in case people had forgotten that #4 over there in Wisconsin isn't the only selfish guy trying to milk out as much press (and cash) before retirement, Roger Clemens announced that he still isn't sure if he's going to play in 2006.

For those who, uh, saw Adam Morrison's, uh, press conference where he, uh, announced that he'll, uh, skip his senior year in college, and uh, go pro....well, if I were a GM and my owner asked my opinion on how Morrison would fare as a pro? Uhhhhhhhh, I'm not so sure about that one.

Alright, it looks like a spot at a good looking table has opened up. Since my loyal readers aren't clicking on any of those enticing google links with reckless abandon, I guess I'll have to go make some money my own damn self.
