Cheers and Jeers: Root Beer Float Edition

Ingredients

• Root Beer
  
• Vanilla Ice Cream
• Love

Cheers: To the Redskins being taken to the Supreme Court. This is less on comment on the cases validity or using the Supreme Court over naming rights but 1) it does highlight an ongoing issue that always rankles my cockles (and not in a good way) that any team can exist with a racist namesake and 2) anything that annoys Dan Snyder.

Cheers: For recognition. At Stewart Mandel points out the Pac 10 to date really has been the most impressive conference. Not that I think it matters as the random perceptions of the Big 12 and SEC will probably continue (let alone dubious voting habits at times of some southern voters) but hopefully a few more wins might influence things this year.

Jeers: To Old Hanging Judge Roger Goodell's random and capricious fine of the Jets and Mangini. Nothing says trying to show off how tough a CEO is than by making up reasons to fine some people (not to say that either didn't doctor their injury list and that the process should be stopped but does anyone buy that the fines will continue or will change the Belichek disciples mode of maximum information lockdown) I wonder how Stern over in NBA land will respond to show that he's even tougher....

Fake injury report, yep that's a paddling

Cheers: To the new season of Ultimate Fighter. For 10 years now Spike has been broadcasting Real World meets Lionheart. I'll be fighting this year under the moniker Kimbo Slice.

C&J's alter ego

Cheers: To This Handy Guide to surving zombie attacks. Contrary to popular opinions you should not go to a gun store in the event of a zombie attack.

And the C&J gal of the week.....Alex Curran who finds the water way too cold
