Outsourcing

Food find: I was at the Cupertino Whole Foods today and came across individual packages of hummus. These were so cool that I bought one for myself and one for my sister. While the only style that was available was the regular, their website claims I can buy it in any variety of eight flavors, including jalapeno and red hot chili pepper.


Excuse this Disruption: Sometimes I don't have the desire or inspiration to write about anything here, but want to fill space with a post. When this happens in the future (and tonight), I'm going to call on my occasional other-half Brian to provide insight on whatever he feels like. Brian's expertise are sports, acting like he knows a lot about science, Prada's performance on Wall Street, eating juicy fruits at inappropriate times, and every movie Jason Statham has made. Here's what he has to say today in what will possibly be called "Excuse this Disruption":

So today I came across one of the most entertaining sports clips I've seen in a while, it's well worth the watch, especially if you're a Colts fan:http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80dfe0f6

Now that I think about it, if I were an NFL player I would definitely trash talk all day. While I completely respect the class that players like LT who let their playing do the talking, I would definitely spend at least 50% of my energy jabbering. It's a shame that refs call unsportsmanlike conduct so often because taunting and jawing are some of the more entertaining parts of the game. "I'ma dump 18 on his head. And I'ma call him Eli if I can do it." So genius. Speaking of unsportsmanlike conduct, creative touchdown celebration I am looking forward to seeing next year: TO grabs a game winning touchdown, signs the ball, and hands it over to the head coach (preferably Andy Reid). That would be worth the $50,000 fine the next day.

Was anyone really surprised with the Cards game? It's pretty obvious Ken has been hiding his teams talent after clinching, and Kurt Warner is too experienced and sly to tell reporters he was just messing around for the last quarter of the season. Also after winning my fantasy league by literally 1 point on DeAngelo's MNF performance of 30-something points, it's also pretty obvious that the Panther's sole purpose this season was to screw with fantasy leagues across America. Eagles-Giants should be entertaining. Ideally the Giants lose, but take McNabb and Westbrook out of the game with injuries. Cowboys fans rejoice.

If I could have one wish right now, it would be that Yao, McGrady, and Artest can play together all at the same time for more than 3 days at a time.
