Keith Olbermann just said to Rachel Maddow, “A guy whose nickname is ‘Boner’ just complained that contraceptives are part of the ‘stimulus’ plan.”

What’s on your mind?

I am not terribly enthused that either Ben Roethlisberger or Kurt Warner will earn a second ring next Sunday, Neither strike me as particularly strong.

Warner the first time, maybe, Big Ben, not at all.

I like gritty get ‘er done QB’s like Big Ben. I hope he wins.

Of course, Jesus has 20 bucks on Kurt Warner.

  Roethlisberger stunk it up in SB XL, hence my apprehension. Warner’s a feel good story, I suppose. Going from nowhere to the Rams to failing with the Giants to Arizona’s trip this year, it’s a sportswriter’s dream.
  
  In the realm of SB-winning QBs who have multiple rings, though, neither of them fit for me, though one of them will join the club. Perhaps either one will have a big game and win me over.
  
  On a totally different note, this story about Arne Duncan’s first days at the Department of Education give me hope:

All day long, Republicans have been whining about the size of Obama’s “package.”

BooMan on January 23, 2009 at 9:55 pm

well, Randy, the problem is that, despite the enormous size of his package, it still doesn’t have enough stimulus.

  You guys are just feeling inadequate.

Enough of these double entendres! Let’s move on to something more elevating.

Oh — shit —

  You’re making it very hard. To concentrate, that is.

    Sure, making it very hard – but not enough to give it up, already.

Where’s Larry Craig when you really need him?
