There's been a few calls from the peanut gallery to have Cheers and Jeers happier. So this week's version is a version of fluffy, happy, floppy, bunnies. Yep sunshine and skittles are shooting out of C&J's collective ass its so happy. So I have to say that I'm surprised, shocked and happy about the trading in the NBA. Usually the average NBA GM sits on in his office contemplating how to use the light switch or what type of turkey sandwich he wants. Year after year the big trade deadline passes with a whimper instead of bang. Not this year. GMs are trying to get rid of their superstars faster than Paris Hilton with her crabs. Sure there's a certain amount of irony that Devean George was still in the league I mean stopped the Big Kidd trade but I have faith now something equally wacky will happen. One can only hope that one of them will lead to the Bill Walton v. Shaq jousting contest.

Cheers: In the category of local boy does good Northeastern Ohio native Kelly Pavlik knocked out the previously unbeaten and probably best pound for pound boxer in the country (Jermain Taylor). Well the two are matching up again on Saturday. Go Pavlik!

Cheers: To the upcoming NBA all-star game. I stand by my belief that the NBA all-star game is the best of the various major sport all-star games. I mean who doesn't enjoy 300 point games? Seriously.....

Cheers: To Congress trying to show that laws aren't just for the little people . Although on the downer side our law department tells me using blogger privaledge does not grant immunity but it does get me a free juicy-juice

Cheers: To Cookie Monster endorsing vegetables. Finally a sign that our nation's obesity epidemic may be beaten back.


And your C&J gal of the week ...... is Heather Christiansen. Remember sexy redheads are our nation's greatest natural resource (far more important than kids or oil)
