Happy Labor Day

Perhaps Mark has a college football post in the works, but I'm not sure, so let this poorly chosen clip serve as a placeholder until something better comes along (hopefully)...

    Norv Turner Overdrive was...mediocre.

    But everyone once in awhile Norv stuck to the bass guitar and let Jerry rock it on the mic. That's when they made their sweetest music.

    Sir Isaac Newton, the father of modern science immortalized in The Sounds of Science, "never married and is believed to have been asexual, being highly engrossed in his studies and work."

    In his next life, he returned as a co-ed at The College of William & Mary.

    Also around the tri-corner...

    Researchers: Williamsburg colonists buried pets
    A finding from the College of William and Mary may change attitudes about how colonists treated their pets.

    Laboratory analysis at the college has found that some bone fragments recovered this summer in unmarked graves on campus belonged not to humans but to dogs, buried two centuries ago.

    The finding is apparently unprecedented. Colonists were not previously known to have buried their pets in formal graves.


    In other news, the College of William & Mary has cut the Archaeology program after realizing what they are spending their time doing.

    As Geoff mentioned, Malcolm Kelly injured his hamstring. Again. And now he's on IR, done for the year.

    It seems he tore his hammy, or as Redskins.com writer Gary Fitzgerald wrote on the website:

    "Mike Shanahan indicated that Kelly had teared his hamstring early in camp.

    Really? He teared his hamstring? Was that on the same play when McNabb throwed him the ball and he falled down? For fuck's sake, man. Maybe on Chester Douchebuckle's 5th grade Skins Fan Club blog, that'll slide, but on the Redskins' official site? That really maked me wonder.

    this pet thing sounds fishy. if the graves were unmarked, then who cares? it's hot and humid in williamsburg-- you're not going to let a dog rot and fester in the sun, you're going to bury it. so what? i do not think this warrants a news story.

    and if you haven't been to "sentence of dave" today, you'll find plenty of other stuff that doesn't deserve to be in print.

    Five legitimate articles in the past 37 days from Bill Simmons? That's just about one a week! I guess he reads the comments at G:TB and got motivated to actually write again instead of just casting pods.

    Speaking of which, I'm surprised no one has cast a pod here recently. Another recurring bit bites the dust.

    If you're buying a car and trying to figure out whether or not to pony up the extra cash for xenon headlights, don't do it. You need a Ph.D. in electrical engineering to replace the bulb. Which cost about $180 each. I am bitter.
