Holy cow, did you know that John Kerry also has a bronze star and a silver star, as well as a unit citation for "extraordinary courage"? If you want me to put up the links here to the scanned copies of the awards themselves, let me know.

Team USA has lost to Italy by a whopping 17 points in basketball. Somehow, that doesn't surprise me. I look at the roster and I see alot of ballhogs and not alot of guys who play defense. I also don't see many good shooters on this team. I also don't see a floor leader. Allen Iverson. Selfish ballhog. Lamar Odom. Tall ballhog. Stephon Marbury. Ballhog. Lebron James (yes, he's talented). ballhog. Shawn Marion. ballhog. Carlos Boozer, Tim Duncan, ok not ballhogs, but still. Dwayne Wade. Get this guy more playing time. Melo, no defense. aiyah, this team is in trouble..

Just returned yesterday from a trip to Tahoe with sswang and some others. It was a lot of fun! Went on a hike. Saw emerald bay which is just gorgeous! Went to Reno. Ate buffet. Won a doll and alot of posters. Just had a blast!

Well, my team has fallen way behind in the Fantasy Baseball A-League, settling into third place behind POC and POB. Barring any debilitating injuries to POC and POB's team, I'll probably end up in third place. This season will be the first time in awhile that I haven't finished in either first or second in a fantasy baseball league. I'll relinquish my "Defending Champs" title and return to the Bruins teamname.... Well, those are the breaks I guess. Still, I feel pretty good about my positioning for next year with Abreu and Vlad as my two keepers. Two 5-tool players... not bad... always next year!

Feelin' a little like good ole' Charlie Brown...
