1. Be of good cheer
No Bulls in the NBA All-Star Game? Don’t get down, boys. Michael Jordan missed a few too. Yes, OK, he was either hurt or retired. My point: Oh, screw it. I don’t have one.
2. Can’t … stand it … anymore
Oh goodie, another championship parade through Boston.
3. Lighten up, Francis
Bill Belichick was actually spotted smiling Tuesday. Or maybe it was a burp. Either way, it’s unconfirmed at this time.
4. What about ‘teamwork’?
So 86.1 million Americans watched the Super Bowl. And 209,324,428 of you had better things to do?
5. One last piece of business
For me, the most effective Super Bowl ad was that one with the stuff that did that thing for that person. Yeah, that one.
6. Missing the point
Fox yanked a second showing of godaddy.com’s Super Bowl ad spoofing the wardrobe malfunction. Yes. Well done. Making a broadcast censorship hearing look foolish is so offensive.
7. Speaking of busts
He’s well into his first week in Detroit, but Magglio Ordonez has yet to homer.
8. Um, do we tell her?
That Englishwoman who spent 711 1/42 days sailing around the world? First thing she said when she got off the boat was, “I can’t wait to go to an NHL game.”
9. Sooo transparent
I could be wrong, but I’m starting to think that Jose Canseco craves attention.
FIVETHINGS…
… I wish I saw at Boston’s Super Bowl parade:
– Terrell Owens demanding to be traded to the Patriots.
– Richard Dent sacking Steve Grogan.
– One sign that New England’s dynasty is over. Just one.
– That godaddy.com commercial again.
– Red Sox players throwing rotten eggs.
