The Donkey Show

I had to go to Home Depot to pick up some Ceiling Tiles. I am in the Process of putting up a Drop Ceiling in my Basement.
I have had most of the stuff (parts) to do this for better than a year just sitting there. Lucky for me my Buddy Steve the Super Tire changer guy from the Nascar story came over to help me.

So anyway’s I am Walking in Home Depot and see a display rack for remotes for garage door openers and I am amazed. I was like wow how cool is that Another 3 button Remote for your keyring then I realized I didn’t have a garage door opener or a Garage for that matter and moved on. But I was wondering if this Home Depot Phenomenon happens to anyone else when you go to Home Depot?

You find yourself looking at Crap that You Don’t need? Only to realize after you have wasted x amount of time that you really have no Need or knowledge of how to use said Product.

The Home Depot Phenomenon. I think I could be on to something. Maybe I could Commishonn this Smart MotherFucker to do some kind of study.

Head on over to JJok’s for a good read.

Namaste

Welcome to the Donkey Show.

I find it amusing how Some People Like to complain about New England Fans. Yes we are proud of our teams. But I don’t ever remember RED SOX fans showing as little class as all those New York Yankees fans did last night. First we had the Back page of the Post with the Title PAPELBUM.

To Bad people did actually read the article but what can you expect from a Bunch of Arrogant New Yorkers.

Papelbon suggested Monday that he should close the Midsummer Classic instead of Mariano Rivera, despite Rivera’s Hall of Fame credentials, outstanding 2008 season and the game being played at Yankee Stadium.

Even though Papelbon eventually backtracked on those comments, the story - which inspired the back-page headline, “PAPELBUM!” - enraged pinstriped fans, who outwardly expressed their opinions as the 27-year-old rode in the parade with his wife, Ashley, who is due with the couple’s first child on New Year’s Eve.

“My wife is pregnant and she’s getting her life threatened. It’s frigging stupid,” Papelbon said during an expletive-laced session with reporters. “I feel like I needed to be in a bullet-proof car.”

Just so we are clear this is the ALL STAR game not another Redsox/Yankees matchup.

This is American League versus National League. So Boo accordingly. Yes you might not like The Redsox but these are the All stars for 1 night put away your hatred and cheer for the good guys which would be the American League team.

I love the Shot of Spike Lee with his Yankees cap with the 26 Pennants on it. Too bad there hasn’t been a New one added in quite awhile and probably won’t be any time soon with the Aging and Broken Down team that the Yankees have assembled that along with the Fact that they have NO PITCHING. Things are Looking might Bleak for the Bronx Bombers and their Classy Fans.

I hope all you New York Yankees fans Enjoy your 3rd place team during this Hot summer in the Bronx cause its going to be a Long one atleast for Yankees fans.

Namaste

Welcome to the Donkey Show.

Do you realize that NFL Training camps open in Less than 2 weeks?

STRENGTH
The top of the depth chart. A 1-2 punch of Randy Moss and Wes Welker is tough to stop on many levels, and also opens opportunities for the third receiver in three-wide packages.

WEAKNESS
After Moss, Welker and Jabar Gaffney, there is some uncertainty.

TOP QUESTIONS
Can Chad Jackson step into the role vacated by Donte’ Stallworth? Can Randy Moss (98 catches, 23 TDs) and Wes Welker (112 catches) duplicate their remarkable 2007 seasons? Will Kelley Washington emerge as more than a special teamer?

INSTANT ANALYSIS
The Patriots were in three-wide or four-wide packages on 67 percent of their offensive snaps in 2007, a reflection of how they wanted their playmaking receivers on the field. Donte’ Stallworth played in 60 percent of the team’s offensive snaps last season — most often as the Z receiver on the tight-end side — and that role is up for grabs. Chad Jackson, a second-round draft choice in 2006, has a golden chance to assume those responsibilities, with Jabar Gaffney and Kelley Washington also options. Gaffney is valuable in that he plays all the receiver spots. Although his official position is receiver, Sam Aiken was signed as a free agent more for his special teams skills, so he could be a sixth addition to the roster (the team kept five receivers out of camp last year). Fifth-round pick Matthew Slater, who is a return man with the ability to play safety and receiver, could also factor into the mix. C.J. Jones and Robert Ortiz are longer shots.

FUTURE
After re-signing with the Patriots for one year this offseason, Jabar Gaffney is lone player atop the depth chart with a contract that expires after the 2008 season. Chad Jackson (2009), Kelley Washington (2009), Randy Moss (2010), Wes Welker (2011) all have multiple years left.
