SHOCKED AND STIRRED
Wow, Rick James is dead at 56. I sure as hell didn't see this coming, at least not this year. I'll refrain from using any Dave Chappelle/Rick James jokes for the time being. RIP, Superfreak.
Anyways, some football news here on this lazy Friday afternoon...
---The Rams will be without DT Jimmy Kennedy for 3-4 months with a broken right foot. Kennedy was the 12th pick in the 2003 NFL Draft. The Seahawks were considering selecting Kennedy, but instead went with Marcus Trufant with the 11th pick. Mike Holmgren on Trufant: "He's money in the bank." Indeed.
Let's see, the Rams are now without 2 members of their defensive line from 2003. Grant Wistrom is in Seattle and Kennedy is out for 3-4 months. And let's not forget about DE Leonard Little, who could be suspended by the NFL because of his legal troubles. Hell, he could be going to jail. Personally, the man should have been locked up a long time ago.
---Falcons QB Michael Vick pulled up lame with a tweak of his right hamstring in practice Thursday. He should be fine. But KEEP THAT 'FRO GROWING, MIKE!!!
---The Seahawks are headed to Portland Saturday for "Seahawks Live". Tickets are already sold out for the event at PGE Park. I don't need an excuse to go to Portland. But if I was still in the Northwest, I would have gone to this, even if it is a glorified scrimmage.

A few more things, non-football related:
---Boy, I wonder who decided at the family of networks that Linda Cohn was considered to be a "MILF". Because that's the only explanation I can give for ESPN sending Cohn out to Los Angeles for the "X-Games".
Oh sh*t, I just said "Linda Cohn" and "MILF" in the same discussion. Time for me to find some pictures of Bonnie Bernstein. That should help me feel better...
---David, there's more than a few Sonic Drive-Ins down here in Arkansas. Their desserts are what saves them from total extinction. Seriously, their food is not good at all. They charge way too much for their food. Yes, Dairy Queen charges good money for their food as well. But their food is good.
For the record, I have not had a "S'Mores" Blast yet. They sure sound good though.

In the immortal words of Pepper Brooks, I feel SHOCKED!
