Lauren's Football Analysis

I definitely think Lauren has a future as a color commentator in the NFL.  Here are a few of her comments on the various people involved in last night's Hall of Fame Game between the Tennessee Titans and Buffalo Bills.

  • Jeff Fisher -- dies his hair.  His beard DOES NOT match his head.  Mid-life crisis?
  • Kerry Collins -- looks like Kevin Bacon with his helmet on.  And he sucks.
  • Ralph Wilson, Jr. (the Bills Owner) -- looks like a serial killer
  • Chris Collinsworth -- he played football?  He's too skinny to play football!  And he looks like your (Tyler's) Dad!
  • A.J. Trapasso -- he's got "magic hands"
  • Kyle Vanden Bosch (upon hearing he had groin surgery in the offseason) -- hahahahahahahahaha
  • Trent Edwards -- runs like a pansy & he thinks he's too pretty to get hit
  • Alge Crumpler-- feels bad about his childhood having a name like "Alge"
  • Paul Posluszny -- looks like Matthew Cooper from Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman

It's Good To Be An Engineer

I'll be honest -- I had no idea what Industrial & Systems Engineering meant when I chose it as a major at USC.  But I quickly learned that it was the right discipline for me.  Turns out its among the 15 Top-Earning College Degrees as well!

Meet The Man Who Lives On $0

Why is it so crazy to think that someone could live without money?
Have we built up so many structures in our lives that we find it
utterly ridiculous that someone could survive without money?
 
I love his quote: "Money represents lack. Money represents things in
the past (debt) and things in the future (credit), but money never
represents what is present."

MLB Power Rankings

(from WhatIfSports Power Rankings)
 
The only team with more than 5 runs scored per game and under 4 given up?  Yep, that's the Dodgers!  There's no question why they have the best record in baseball.
 
The most interesting stat from the Power Rankings?  The Padres, who play in the notoriously pitcher friendly Petco Park, have the most runs scored against them per game at 6 runs/game.

Flying JetBlue

On the flight home yesterday, I watched the 2008 Home Run Derby, when Josh Hamilton hit a record 28 home runs in the first round.
 
The Home Run Derby has lost its luster since many of Baseball's top sluggers are suspected of having used PEDs, but it was cool to see someone who's overcome a mountain of personal struggles have his moment to shine.
 
On a related note, caught a few minutes of the '99 Home Run Derby this weekend -- Sosa, McGwire, Griffey , and others like Jeremy Burnitz & John Jaha. All I could think was,"I wonder how many of these guys were on PEDs?"
