It's Got to Be the Morning After

-Rams 20, Raiders 0- On ESPN's Sports Guy column, they joked about the Raiders' season. The punch line was the title of Art Shell's book: "It Worked So Well In Practice: The Art Shell Story." Which sums up the Raiders season--. comedy gold, Jerry, comedy gold.

Luckily, this game wasn't televised which is a good thing because we got the Eagles/Giants game instead and those games are always pretty epic. This was not pretty epic. Here's the ugly stats: zero points (obvously), three interceptions, two lost fumbles, four sacks allowed, nine penalties, 57 rushing yards, and one very unhappy benched starting QB. Total offense: 260. Which sounds pretty bad, but the Raiders D gave up only 251.

In the meanwhile, Al showed up to say he's alive and kicking and likes the ladies. Raiders nation may not be. Uhh, the alive and kicking part that is, not the not liking the ladies part.

-The Warriors road woes continue as they lost their seventh in a row, 120-115 to the Toronto Raptors. Is it time to start calling them the Woe-rriors again?

-Ray Ratto wonders why Stanford hasn't hired anyone yet. Why? Are they in a rush?

-USF loses to UCSB in men's basketball. Gau-chos! Gau-chos! Gau-chos!

Sorry, we let our emotions get the best of us there.
