Maybe it's bad sporstsmanship,

to say 'the refs ROBBED us', but when it happens twice, in a close game, it's hard not to. We were at the CU/Oregon St game yesterday, (sitting right in front of the two worst calls, EVER), and it's hard to iamgine 'How could it happen?' To keep it short, the first was a 'pass interference' call, on CU, after they intercepted, to stop a drive. The Buff defender was watching the pass, from behind the receiver, and slowed down to make the catch, as the receiver ran into him. The closest official, called nothing, as he should. The 'not close' back judge waited until the return was well under way, after several blocks had been made, and THEN threw the flag. I thought it might be clipping. Nope. The Beavers went on to score the go-ahead TD. THEN, with the game on the line and CU driving, inside a minute left, the Buff receiver was OBVIOUSLY interferred with, and there was NO call. Blatant bad calls that cost CU the game and the fans and coach went crazy. Insane, but that's what happened. The Denver Post was FULL of articles saying the same thing, http://www.denverpost.com/colleges/ci_26665406/colorado-head-coach-mike-macintyre-upset-after-loss-oregon-state
Not sure why, or who was 'in charge', but I think the refs were told who was going to win, and they made sure it happened.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
