Cheers and Jeers: Irish Coffee Version

Well its cold out. Damn Cold. The temperature is below Dick Cheney's approval rating and the snow is falling faster than the number of supporters of the Florida Marlins. There are only a few things that can keep me warm on days like this and two of them are alchohol and warm drinks (the other of course being Charlize Theron in a hot tub). Frankly nothing goes better with an Irish Coffee than a little Cheering and Jeering...

Cheers: To the hot stove. Free agent signings, general managers wheeling and dealing....its just bigger and better when baseball handles it. The early front runner winners are the NYMets and Toronto although truth be told it seems like only cities in former British colonies are getting players as opposed to giving them up. I demand a change.

Jeers: To the Boston Red Sox. One year after signing Edgar Renteria you basically gave him up for nothing. Yeah that move went well for the BoSox. Also that teaches you Edgar to spurn the Cardinals

Cheers: To Steve Nash. There was a lot of talk of how Phoenix would implode without Joe Johnson and Amare Stoudameir. Well they're holding their own at 12-5 and the 6th seed in the playoffs. Now that Nash is making Boris Diaw seem like a decent player anybody want to question if Nash was deserving of the MVP last year?

Jeers: Gary Barnett. Gary Barnett ....your scum. Your lower than scum. I only need to remind people that your response to allegations that your female kicker was raped was that "she (the kicker) wasn't good on the field". Now its looking like you had subordinates lie to investigators as well as helped players avoid drug testing. Yes Gary Barnett you get the grand prize of being: WANKER OF THE WEEK.

Cheers: To Cardinals fans. Ever polite one of them purchased an original Busch stadium urinal for $2,000. Cleveland Browns fans, of course, would have just stolen it. I still have a brick from Old Municipal Stadium that I liberated.
