Best Damned Sports-themed Update, Period

[fish_tie]

I have to confess that I find it a bit ironic that most of my updates of late have involved sports of one sort or another. Those who knew me in my formative years probably would have been hard-pressed to fathom that I had any interest in sports at all. Life has an insidious way of sneaking that stuff in there, when you least expect it.

There's nothing like having a 70-year-old quarterback who manages to make 20 rookie mistakes per game. Skol, Vikings!

I have a pair of bowling shoes I inherited from my little brother years ago. Don't ask why my mom was silly enough to buy him a pair of bowling shoes when he was a teenager and still growing, but the good part is that they're only about half a size too big for me, and I couldn't really complain given the price either. They look exactly like normal sneakers, except for the soles. I often wondered how bowling lanes could tell the difference -- I mean, can the dude at the front desk really see that my sneakers say "Brunswick" instead of "Reebok" on the side?

Many of my friends are confused at the high sports quotient in my life nowadays too, but that's because I didn't really have time to follow pro sports in college. I lived and breathed baseball as a kid, and learned everything I needed to know about hockey from Blades of Steel!
