The Greatest Tragedy

Dan Shauaughanesensey recently wrote an article about what the world would be like if the Patriots had actually won the Super Bowl last year, and gone 19-0.

Boston would have won championships in 3 out of the 4 major sports leagues (I am Canadian, so the NHL counts!).
Brady and his supermodel girlfriends would have received even more press.
Belichick would have become even more annoying to stare at.

But the biggest tragedy may have been that we would never have seen this Willams-vs-Manning Double Stuf Racing League commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7o_JfWuw1E

Anytime you can get a boring guy like Peyton to say, "It's on like Donkey Kong," it's a winner in my books. Well done, DSRL!

Until next time, Saif's out!

Divided We Fall

In writing about entertaining activities and off-beat news items, I often neglect serious activities that occur in the world. While sober ongoings in the world probably have a much larger affect on our lives, comical stories just seem to be easier to discuss. After all, we have our own daily issues to get through - we don't need anything else to damper our spirits. Nonetheless, I recently read a couple of articles that really got me thinking about one of the controversial topics in society today. The Globe and Mail published an article describing a meeting that the Canadian Prime Minister, Paul Martin, held with 19 Muslim imams on Thursday, July 28th, 2005. This meeting was organized for Muslim leaders to commend the Canadian leadership for staying out of Iraq, and condemn the terrorist activities that have taken place by Muslim extremists. Although long overdue, statements from this meeting could be significant in helping the wider Canadian population understand the position of p...

Task 37? Done!

I know, it's been a few days since I updated the blog, but what can I say? I'm a busy (ahem...lazy) guy. Just like you, I also have a list of 100 things to get done before I die. Here's a subset: 35: Encourage Mr. T to challenge Mr. Clean for bling-washing supremacy 36: Strike a pose like Bill Gates 37: Break into old people's homes, just to tickle them while they're asleep 38: Find any role in any movie where the actor is more of a wuss than Orlando Bloom in Troy (this might be the hardest one) Anyway, you'll be happy to know that task 37 has been completed! Relax, it wasn't by me, but by someone else. As much as I hate my ideas being stolen, this has humour written all over it. A guy broke into elderly womens' homes naked, just to tickle them with feathers and fingers. He's even freaked out the neighbours so much that they wake up in the middle of the night and look for the tickle monster beside their beds. Ahh, good times all around. Until nex...

OJ Murders? Who Cares. OJ Steals Satellite TV? Busted!

So, let me get this straight about O.J. Simpson. OJ can win a Heisman Trophy in college. OJ can play 11 years in the NFL, and rush for 11,236 yards. OJ can be the first RB in the NFL's history to top 2,000 yards in a season. OJ can be involved in low-speed car chase in a white Ford Bronco. OJ can hire F. Lee Bailey, Robert Shapiro and Johnnie Cochran to defend him in his wife's murder trial. OJ can beat the murder rap because "if the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit." OJ can win custody of his children after all this. But OJ gets busted for stealing satellite TV. Gotta love America. Well, with no TV, at least now he'll have more time to find the "real killers."
