Angels in 7. Barry Bonds gets another year to whine. Boo hoo.
I can’t believe he was even under consideration for MVP. I can’t see how a member of the team that LOSES the Series can be considered “most valuable”, unless you qualify it as “most valuable to the losing team”. And if he contributed to the winning team’s win, he certainly wouldn’t be “most valuable” to his own team 🙂

What a boring day.

Hell. Standard Time never left where we live. What’s wrong with the rest of you?

it’s time for Russia and France to FUCK OFF.
Baghdad delenda est. Faster, damn it.

Michael Bellesiles has resigned from Emory.
Link via the Professor. According to a bit of research here, Glenn doesn’t seem to be finding any mention whatsoever of this in the national media. Probably wouldn’t hurt if a lot of blogs made mention of it.

I seem to recall hearing that NRO’s The Corner was a Blogger-powered blog. It looks like they’ve migrated to Movable Type to me (templates are very similar but the links and file names look very MT to me).
If so, good for The Corner.

(sorry Al Franken…well, not sorry, you’re a big fat idiot too), and Rachel Lucas has opened up a big can of rant-flavored whoopass on Comrade Moore.

From time to time I highlight the stupidity of the people who work at the Indianapolis Star. Television writer Marc Allan (who used to be the rock concert critic, and wasn’t very good at that, either) has an article in the Star today talking about Sean Hannity’s appearance here tomorrow. The headline?
“Right-wing pundit Hannity is eager to meet his public.”
I wonder if he would have called Alan Colmes “Left-wing pundit Colmes” if Alan was going to be here instead? (That question was rhetorical for Republicans.)
No, no left-wing bias at the venerable Star at all. Move along, there’s nothing to see here.
(FYI I understand that Allan probably didn’t write the headline. But it points up that someone at the Star is contributing to the leftward lean the Star has been taking ever since the Pulliams sold out to Gannett.)

…Fox has switched from being “All Sniper All The Time” to “All Wellstone All The Time.”
Good God, people. A sense of proportion please.

Sen. Paul Wellstone, D-MN, was on a plane that crashed in northern Minnesota within the past hour. All 8 aboard the small prop plane died.
