After the past two weeks, I will pop like a monkey if Bryan busts out the Cross Rhodes on Orton too.

Remember kids, you're only as old as you feel. (I'll be 41 in November.)

Speculation is it may have to do with the distillery Nucky suckered Rothstein into taking.

I was kind of hoping for Paul's doctor to be a random scummy Canadian. Whatever happened to Fred la Merveille?

Eddie Kessler is Nucky's butler, and I'm glad he's back for no other reason than if he gets to sing another song or two. Dude has some weapons-grade pipes.

I guess I was the only one who watched it last night. Looks like Chalky's going to be front and center this season now that he's running the erstwhile Babette's as a Cotton Club-style establishment.

Jenn's in midseason form already. Good to see the vets manning up (or womanning up as the case may be).

I'm excited for football! I'm looking forward to the season opener and Geno proving the naysayers wrong, every last one of 'em!

I forget which match I saw it in (probably Florida), but my brain broke when Dusty threw a fucking DROPKICK out of nowhere.

One of my favorite docs ever, no lie. Kon Ichikawa is godly.

Does Tulane really count?

HA! Chepo has been wished well in his future endeavors by the FMF. AWESOME.

With the US playing Mexico next and something like 8 Americans already on a yellow card, no less. This match could turn into a bloodbath really fast if they aren't careful.

The one thing that might work in our favor is that FIFA forced the match to be held at the new National Stadium instead of the decrepit Saprissa, which theoretically takes away a good chunk of the Ticos' usual home advantage. Time shall tell.

I thought they called that a natural hat trick in soccer too. That's what we called it when Clint Mathis did it for the Metros as part of his four-goal game in 2001 against KC (still the best one-man performance I've ever seen live).

So my Vita's screen has somehow completely shit the bed - the device powers on fine and the audio works, but there's no video at all. This happen to anyone else?

Wow, who knew Buddy Rose was so ripped? And tanned?

Yes. Absolutely. Lose weight and build muscle and you will almost certainly wake up feeling much, much better. There's bound to be an adjustment period, but if you man up and get through the rough spots it'll get easier and easier to keep eating better and exercising regularly. Your body wants to move,and it wants to get some real nutrition. It will reward you if you give it those things. It will punish you if you do not. Me in 2008: Probably could've saved some work if you just let some of the air out of that valve on your left there. Also, this.

UCLA's "LA Midnight" unis for the 11/15 game against U-Dub.

And awesomely, some United fans have already hit the panic button.

So when are these schools going to learn not to schedule the FCS teams that are actually, you know, good? Kudos to KSU and OSU for bypassing the cupcakes and not taking the easy way out, but YIKES.
