Hi.
Things we are never off: The lovely Ms. Kerr.

The Bull Session Questions
Today’s the first day back to school for many across the country.
So we wonder: What’s the best first day of school you’ve had? The worst?
The Announcement
…uh, we’re all heading back to school, too. Expect fewer posts until we figure this out.
The Soundtrack
This is off The Blueprint 3, out September 11th. It’s slinky and Timbaland-y.
“Tell Rush Limbaugh to get off my balls/It’s 2010, not 1864.”
For anyone who cares, my weekly column at TPP is up. Wound up getting swamped at work today, so it’s later than usual. Could be useful background information for anyone planning to listen to us talk some CFL on the Pubcast tonight.
I missed your birthday earlier, mate, so happy belated birthday. Also, well done on the CFL column. Good work as usual!
Thanks! Much appreciated!
FUCK. Brett Favre’s on ESPN enough, why do then need to put his stupid wrangler commercial on.
Yea school is weird now. On the plus side in 3 years I can be called esquire – which is nice
Yeah, well Bill S. Preston didn’t even need 3 years of school to be called Esquire.
I consider myself to be of gentle birth, so I feel I should be called esquire now.

Mark Sanchez is so dreamy. I hope Stabby Ray doesn’t get stabby tonight.
Great start for Sanchez! Ouch!
That TAINT was a nice start for Sanchez.
Rookie mistake. Dirty Mark Sanchez will learn that you don’t throw the ball when Ray Lewis has just swallowed and digested half your body.
I mentioned this on Friday but the website was down, there is the online test for the Jeopardy College Championship tomorrow night at 9 eastern.

I’m awful at Jeopardy (good at millionaire, bad at jeopardy) but i was thinking about doing it anyway. Just for the fact that if you get on, you are guaranteed five grand.

Not to infringe on The Rookies normally fab hosting duties… but we’re trying something new at the Pub/Live Blog thingy…
Quite an inning there for Jose Contreras. 2 walks, 1 with the bases loaded, a hit batsman, wild pitch which allowed a run, an error that would have ended the inning, and a 3 run jack.
Sounds like Ryan Madson has been traded to the White Sox.
I see I missed the LC you guys did over at the live blog thing. Sucks for me.
Also, thank you yet again JOSE GODDAMN CONTRERAS for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. Good goin’ douche.
/he said to no one in particular
Ouch. On the bright side, you didn’t lose on a walkoff slam. Poor Giants.
