Random Monday Morning Thoughts


  • What a horrible interception by Tony Romo.  Unless something changes, and I doubt that it will, he'll be ranked behind Danny White. 
  • I was describing the long haired guy on TV as "Dallas' defensive coordinator" to Mrs. LL who then said, "Rob Ryan? And doesn't he have a twin brother? And doesn't the brother have some sort of fetish?" I don't even know her anymore.
  • I started the Cowboys/Redskins game by saying, "No NFL team should have a band." By the end of the game I decided it wasn't a bad bit.
  • I'm already seeing some rumblings that RG3's stats aren't all that good if you really looked at them. Uh, he just wins.
  • If Bridesmaids comes on, it's hard to get Mrs. LL to move.
  • We watched most of the 1970s classic Love Story yesterday. I didn't remember it being so horrible and contrived. And what's with the gratuitous cussing?
  • Peter King's Monday Morning Quarterback, which has been featured on 60 Minutes, is a big of nothing. And the way KissingSuzyKolber.com dissects it each week is a must read.
  • I haven't seen it yet, but some news organization will warn me against about firing bullets into the air at midnight tonight.
  • It seems like the calendar changing form 1999 to 2000 wasn't that long ago.
  • There's some new Billy Crystal movie where the trailer shows him being kicked in the crotch. That's comedy? In 2012?
  • I just learned that Sean Hannity and I were born 36 days apart. Maybe that's why I'm convinced he should know better.
  • I learned from the BagofNothing.com guy that the Cowboys have a CT Scan machine at Valley Ranch and he even got scanned in it. 
  • Hot prediction without knowing hardly any of the facts: There will be no indictment against UT players Case McCoy and Jordan Hicks arising out of the sexual assault story.
  • Remember the female Dallas cop who made the video proclaiming herself "Lucille Baller". (Funny, by the way.) Well, she's back in the news.
  • I was mentioned in a favorable way in a Letter to the Editor this weekend in the Messenger written by a Bridgeport man who has spent a ridiculous 18 years in federal prison for drugs. He, obviously, is not in favor of the "lock 'em up" mentality.

No comments in regards to your fiscal cliff predictions? None? You already were proved wrong with your cowboy predictions.

I still think there'll be a last minute compromise reached--but all we'll hear from BOTH sides is about "they were willing to compromise for the good of the country with those bad guys on the other side of the aisle." It'll be the same ol' tune up in DC--blah, blah, blah. If they DON'T reach an agreement, it will REALLY prove how "broke" everything is in DC. Either way, we'll still be disgusted with DC.

Democrats in Congress have no incentive to reach a deal. It's the dream scenario for them -- they get to raise taxes (their raison d'ĂȘtre) on every American taxpayer and blame the Republicans for it.

BG your comment about nearly sharing your bday with Hannity sounded as sophomoric as most of your political comments.

If you are in charge of a burglary and theft unit, and you yourself are the victim of a theft that you could have easily prevented, you don't have any business being a police lieutenant. DPD should tell her "Lose your badge, lose your job!" This is assuming her story is actually true. Sounds like BS to me

Combining two bullet points: Cowboys' loss and cussing. I was watching the game at a friend's house. At the end I said "Well, I'm going home now so I can do some proper cursing." And I did, but it was all totally integral to the plot...not gratuitous at all.

I haven't looked at RGIII's stats, but his passing and rushing numbers combined have to be fairly impressive. And he didn't look all that great last night, but he's the reason they have enough wins to make the playoffs. People can minimize his ability if they want, but remember Baltimore QB Trent Dilfer? That guy's got a SB ring

All three of today's RTGs rank very high on the non-Fake scale

18 years in and all he learns is how to do it better next time. Then he gets out and can't find a job. Nobody hires cons. What can he do? Gotta eat. So he steals your TV. Maybe we should think about less time and more training and job opportunities.

"No NFL team should have a band."

The Dallas Cowboys had a band. I believe a gentleman by the name of Tommy Foy was the band director. He would occasionally play the national anthem on his trumpet along with directing the band.

Shut up! Your extreme biased mentality is part of the problem.

RG3 has a horrible arm, nearly as bad as Tebow but what gets him by is he is so dynamic in the read option his recievers are routinely very wide open. You will never here a single NFL commontator say it though.

The Shanahans know it and are doing right by him in running this offense. He would never make it in a straight pro style pocket passing offense. You can win games with him but never championships. Lots of QB's that can win games in the NFL.

I love RG3, and thoroughly enjoyed watching him best Romo but I am just calling it like I see it. He is just another Mike Vick with a lesser arm but better intangibles. Injuries will plague his career and he must always be on a team with a solid defense to win consistently.

"Extreme biased mentality" - You mean like insisting that high earners pay more income taxes for no other reason than they can?

And what "problem" is it that other people's opinions cause you?

Anonymous said...

Wait--I thought Democrats didn't want to tax the poor because Democrats are all about letting the wretched, dirty, minorities freeload on the rest of us. Now Wordy tells me they want to tax them too?

Confusing!

"I'm already seeing some rumblings that RG3's stats aren't all that good if you really looked at them. Uh, he just wins."

Did some research for you Bu...

For the season, 4 NFL QBs had a passer rating of 100 or better. That means they were really, really good. Griffin was number 3 at 102.4 behind 2 guys you may have heard of, Aaron Rodgers and Peyton Manning. Number 4 was Russell Wilson at 100 even, no other NFL QB broke 100. For you Cowboy fans, Tony Romo was number 10 at 90.5.

Oh, and rushing numbers...

Griffin was the number 20 rusher in the league. Not the 20th QB, the 20th of ALL players at 815 yards. He was number 1 at the QB position with Cam Newton 2nd at 741.

The Deadskins were 10-6 and won the NFC East.

Yep, RGIII's numbers pretty much sucked.

You need to stick to lawyerin' Bu.

I have a novel idea for Tommy, Rusty and you Barry. Why not abide by the laws we have in place and work to change the ones you do not like. Maybe Tommy should have spent his time and money doing that instead of the drugs.

Tommy Loy played the National Anthem on his trumpet. He was not part of the band. They were in the east end zone seats at Texas Stadium and they were something else JJ did away with. They were a great band and were much better than the noise we've had to listen to since then.

2:25. So your one of those jerk wads that always make it racial. I don't care if RG3 was purple, routinely getting hit in the NFL is a guaranteed career hazard for QB's. They use him like a RB...those guys rarely make it past 30. He cannot be a pure pocket passer because of his delivery or they would already be grooming him for that, especially with a solid O-line. That is not a shot at his race, the guy is top tier already in smarts and instincts. Any athletic QB that is utilized as a runner, regardless of race, will get punished in the NFL.

You cannot run the table against teams that can contain him and force him into long third downs. Watch what Seattle does to him next game and you will see his skillset exposed. His Rookie year looks a lot like Cam Newton's if you ask me.

Funny you use Doug Williams as your pseudonym, he was clearly a "white type QB" for those of you who see in color. The reason guys like Manning and Brady have success is simple, they don't hold the ball long and never take punishment.

re: NFL team band...Does any team, other than the Redskins, have a fight song? I can't recall ever hearing one, or at least not one that the crowd sings.

that guy said...

back during my formative years I remember a little diddy by Tanya Tucker being played after every touchdown at texas stadium, don't know if it was a fight song but the crowd sure seemed to enjoy it.

Whoever is in charge of the music at the new stadium is either an ahole, idiot, or I suspect both.
