I wanted to cover a couple things before I head off to whip Jason and Dale on the golf course this weekend.
1. A couple of contributors told me that they think Sweetlou's post shouldn't be considered an actual post. It's cool to have a party and invite everyone (I'll be there, Lou), but these contributors insist that Lou should provide us with another post. They contend that a real post has some intellectual value. They want a post that provides some insight on a topic or offers up some witticisms. And barring any of that, the post should at least talk about the value of beer or sex. I am inclined to agree with these contributors unless it makes Lou mad enough to cancel his party. In that case, I think those guys are crazy.
2. During the Colorado series I went to bed during the games twice. The Cards came back to win both of these games. The middle game of the series I stayed up to watch, and they lost. Does this mean anything?
3. This weekend I am in the position of having my incompetence at golf pay off for me. And since my incompetence is great, it gives me a better chance. I will, however, still put a whippin' on Dale and Jason since they are just as incompetent as me.
4. The Baseball Mules are playing in the Division II national semifinals tonight at 6:30. They are ranked no. 1 and have already beaten No. 2 ranked Florida Southern and the No. 3 ranked defending champs, Delta State. If you're interested you can listen here. Go Mules!
5. Oops! Never mind!
Have a great weekend!
**UPDATE** I forgot to mention the Mules when I originally posted this.

I was under the impression that weekends start on Friday.
Lou's post certainly doesn't stack up to the "Oops, never mind" post but that one will be hard to beat. I want to hear some teaching stories from Lou, Myron, and Jeff (or any other teachers out there). Some tales of adolescent high jinks.
1. In a feeble attempt to cover the four main blog groups (wit, insight, beer, sex), I offer the following:
A guy spots a nice looking girl in a bar goes up and starts small talk. Seeing that she didn't back off he asked her name.
"Carmen," she replied.
That's a nice name," he said warming up the conversation. "Who named you, your mother?"
"No, I named myself, she answered.
"Oh, that's interesting. Why Carmen?"
"Because I like cars, and I like men," she said looking directly into his eyes. "So what's your name?" she asked.
"Beersex."
2. It means that the Cardinals are better than the Rockies. But just in case...
I had the unique opportunity to leave the city with the worst team in the AL to visit the 2nd worst team in the AL play the 3rd worst team in the AL. Tampa Bay vs. Oakland. Tropicana Field is not much to look at and not really in a good spot for people to get to, so unless they build a more accessible stadium, this franchise is destined for mediocrity. Joe Blanton started for the A's and didn't make it out of the 1st. TB hung a ten-spot in the first inning and any possible competitiveness that may have been possible was gone. Somehow, we made it to the 7th before bailing. The only reason we were able to make it that long was because there was a playground for the kids behind the CF wall.
3. Competence, like your golf game, is overrated.
4. Uh.......
