  1. Immutable Law of Crowds: The guy with the loudest voice has the lowest IQ and the highest blood alcohol level. At least the home team won.
  2. Another thuggish ex-Nebraska football player goes to jail, this time for murder. I still say sports builds character ... most places.
  3. Legal oddity: P Burress pleads to "attempted criminal possession of a weapon." Pretty good attempt, considering he shot himself in the leg.
  4. I'd love to believe Michael Vick cried in prison because he was remorseful, but I bet he actually cried in prison because he was in prison.
  5. Booked a trip with frequent flier points. Had to cancel. Airline is charging me $100 to rebank my miles. Why? Do they put 'em back by hand?
  6. I don't get heavy-handed with my players about facial hair, but I'd have banned Marty DeJong's scruffy little beard on grounds of ugliness.
  7. @grahamorama I have a gorilla costume, if you need to borrow one. I can't believe you don't own one already.
  8. My baseball-chucking vandal is MARTY DeJONG? Just goes to show you: Never trust a guy who parts his hair down the middle.
  9. Bob's a great coach, but if he's cracking cases in 2 days, maybe he should go be Dick Tracy. 'Course, Tracy's just a fictional character ...
  10. Ben Roethlisberger, FYI, is a very hard guy to tweet about. Memo to plaintiffs: Just for space purposes, next time please sue Tony Romo.
  11. Roethlisberger's lawyer says he “has never sexually assaulted anyone, especially Andrea McNulty." How do you especially not assault someone?
  12. Phone rang at 9:15 a.m. Woman from VISA said it was a courtesy call. I said it woulda seemed a lot more courteous at 11. She didn't get it.
  13. Mimi had me convinced our vandal was Shep Trumbo. Now we're back to could-be-anybody. I'd blame Marty Moon, but he doesn't have the arm.
  14. I don't know what the heck to make of someone throwing a baseball through my window. I guess I'm just glad I didn't tick off a shot-putter.
  15. There have been three major league ballplayers named Aurelio, and all three died in car wrecks. Watch who you ride with.
  16. Ted offering me a job? It's like Mimi says -- be nice to your student teacher, 'cause he might wind up being your principal. Or your waiter.
  17. A baseball? Someone hit my house with a BASEBALL? Maybe Manny Ramirez didn't like that line about taking a day off.
  18. Mimi wants me to help garden. I told her we should move to a condo, but then I realized Milford doesn't have any. That's odd ...
  19. Manny Ramirez came back from a 50-game suspension, played parts of two games, and then took a day off. Poor guy must be exhausted.
  20. Neal Rubin from the Milford A-V department helped set up my account, but if you're looking for him, try @ArentUNealShine. This is all Thorp.
