What are you doing reading this for? You should be out barbequing some of Rex’s ribs, spending the last day of summer at the beach (or searching for parking around it), or attending a music festival somewhere! Those of you with kids could be getting last minute school supplies. You could be lamenting/celebrating the fact that the Yankees just aren’t going anywhere this year, or that Tampa Bay is…even if nobody is going to their games. I read somewhere that Tampa Bay has the highest number of strip clubs per capita of any city in the country, so maybe that explains it. You’ll surely be watching a possible playoff preview between Santana and Sheets, right? You may be completing your fantasy football drafts, or checking your computers for scores of the first day of the first week of fantasy baseball playoffs…when a whole season you’ve just grinded through may rest on a totally random cold streak or some lunatic manager deciding to take your starter out after 100 pitches even though he’s only gone 5 and 2/3s and just needs one more out to get the quality start. The US Open has hit its second week, and I realize I just don’t follow tennis that much anymore because I don’t recognize any names in some of these draws. You could be playing the new Madden or Tiger Woods. You could be looking at the lines for the opening week of the NFL…the Pats are picking up where they left off last year, 16.5 point favorites over the Chiefs. Is Brady really iffy? Doubt it, give those points. The over in the Jets-Dolphins is a scant 36…it may not be O’Brien versus Marino, but Favre and Pennington aren’t slouches and don’t these two always score a ton of points? The Steelers are less than a TD favorite at home against Texas, this is one of Pittsburgh's few easy games this year so they've got to come out strong. I think I also like the Cowboys giving only five to Cleveland, though I do hate to root for Dallas. These are for entertainment purposes only, of course. Speaking of entertainment, you could also be watching Tim and Eric’s Awesome Show. It’s pretty darn funny. Just a tip. You could be doing a lot of things, just don’t labor, okay?

| You told us to take Michigan, that they would NEVER blow two home openers in a row. You also told us to bet against Pavano twice... WAIT - that was my doing. I wish I could blame you! |

| Nick - those did seem like solid bets. Take the Jints at home Thursday vs the Skins. Matts - Riyad is a natural in the new video. He's better than last year. Big Blue will crush his Skins though and the Mets will finally bury the Braves again. Santana will beat Sheets. |

WCC: Why do they call it Labor Day when nobody works???
JGClancy: You are sneaky fast in terms of catching us off guard as a potential MVP (Most Valuable Poster)! Keep it up...
GollyTwo: I told Matt that post re Palin was sexist but he was having none of it! He pointed out that her calling herself a hockey mom is tantamount to Obama and McCain calling themselves working senators. I'm with him! When was the last time any of them voted, drove the kid to hockey practice or saw that blasted pothole get fixed?!

Matts, the new vid is outstanding! Love the 'wide right' pic you used for Giants. Very funny. I had to watch it three times before I figured it wasnt the Pats. And I love the Green Bay cheerleader.
West Coast Craig, you takin' bets? |

| My husband is like a kid running around before Christmas with football season starting. He does the ribs and chicken wings. He's frying a turkey now. Ridiculous. Matts - Riyad and his family are adorable! |
