Donuts...Is there anything they can't do?

God bless the Gateway Grizzlies of the Frontier League. Apparently, each year the Grizzlies introduce a new novelty concession item prior to the start of the season, and really, they've outdone themselves this time. Their 2006 creation:

The Donut Burger

That's right kids, it's a hamburger topped with cheddar cheese and two slices of bacon...all between "buns" of Krispy Kreme donuts. Like manna from heaven. How quickly can I get to Sauget, IL?

They've just stumbled on to a little something known as the Luther Burger in these parts, so named for Luther Vandross's penchant for consuming mass quantities of the life ending delicacies.

I kind of have to think that Cincy went a good ways towards playing themselves out with the Cuse loss, but anything's possible, there's always at least 2 or 3 WTF moments on Sunday.

Meanwhile, Miami is about to take a shot to tie Duke and send this thing to OT. Huzzahs.

I eagerly await Dickie V's meltdown Sunday when one of these (overrated) MVC teams gets snubbed by the committee.

Non sequitur, but this surprised me: A Few Good Men is roughly based on the experience of a Naval JAG Officer named Donald Marcari. He lives in the Hampton Roads area now as . . . an ambulance chaser. His ads say: "If you've seen the movie, you know he will fight for you. If you've been hurt, put a few good men to work for you." I had to play it back several times on TiVo and then look it up on the net. Ridiculous.

Yikes...Devils survive a nice little scare. I'll take it.

NC State is taking a beating at the hands of lowly Wake. Down 20 with 10:00 to play.

Meanwhile, the USA is up 14-0 on South Africa in the top of the 3rd. In truth, they haven't been quite as impressive as that looks, but they've been a lot better than they were vs. Canada. The small stadium with the wind blowing out aided a Derrek Lee bomb, while the SA pitchers aided two enormous Junior jacks. The US has thrived on a series of flares, opposite field hits, and dribblers getting through to keep runners aboard for the dingers. The Mercy Rule is nearly in effect.

That burger...It makes me want to puke.

I think Hofstra got the shaft.

Dennis said...

Someone gets the shaft every year, and this year Hofstra and Gonzaga can prepare to receive probe...

Did you ever read the saga of (or watch the mini-doc about) the guy who figured out how to beat the system in Press Your Luck and won 10x more than had ever been won on it? Intriguing.
