@Skating Tomato: You could say it's a day of Saturation.

Garrison Keillor looks awfully happy to be a Steelers fan.

"ESPN is entering hour four of their coverage and NBC is about to begin its five-hour pre-game spectacle (not counting the riveting "Road To The Super Bowl" special.) It's urge overkill."

@Wampeters, Foma, and Pat Falloons: And an introductory +1 for the DUANer with the Pat Falloon reference. Thank fuck SJ took him, and the Devils ended up with a consolation prize named Scott Niedermeyer.

I love Tommy Smyth, and am appalled he's not on this list.

"But I'm starting at shortstop."

@Evgeni Merkin: Then there's the fact that he slammed her head against the floor Five times! Five times! Five times! Five times! Five times!

Five! Five! Five dollar yard looooooooooong.

He's hot! He's spicy! He tastes great!

He said yes?! Doesn't Kirk Radomski have any pride or self-respect? How can he prostitute himself like this? I mean what is he going to do, start driving Dave Justice to the airp....oh, I guess Kirk Radomski actually has no pride or self-respect.

@RuthlessGravity: Metaphorically, you could say that guy pissed on his girl there. But he gave her his bowling plaque as a sign of commitment, so that was sweet.

I'm still wondering how VH-1 licensed Duke's unofficial trademarks for this show.

@TracyHamandEggs: So he does, and between that and some other things he's rehabilitated his winger image enough to get friendly interviews with Jon Stewart and the like. He's still a solid gold-plated asshole, per the DC norm.

@Colin White Devil: "won", dork.

So who the Rumble, anyway?

@The Vigilante Face: The reason why the Soup is funny is that Joel McHale is fucking terrific. I saw his standup a couple months ago and nearly pissed myself. He's a very funny guy, and he's got good material to work with if you like that sort of thing. Can't say the same thing about the sports version.

Damn, Alex Ovechkin is quick on the Twitter. [twitter.com]

@tcw04: He's got Richard Zednik luck.

You know, that devastating block on Corey Ivy by the Pittsburgh WR WAS a serious helmet-on-helmet shot to my eyes, and no one had anything to say about that, nor was there a flag thrown.

@Doinker: You're assuming the Sun will still be in business tomorrow.
