Friday Roundup


Brewers: Don't wanna jinx it.

Tim Couch: I still favored Kerry Collins. Couch showed himself to be thin-skinned and to have very little mental toughness (if any at all). I mean, the Cleveland fans made him cry! Still, he's a better backup than Peterson (I think). I don't buy any of this "taking over as QB after Favre leaves" talk. If they're serious about that, jeebus help us all.

Baby Good: I can now see why people love babies. They are a lot of fun. They smell cute, sound cute, act cute, and sleep cute. Even the wife is talking about having another, a position I initially supported, but have re-considered due to dwindling finances.

Baby Bad: In addition to the mounting financial costs of child-rearing, there are other downsides. They are time burglers, slowly and insatiably eating away at your days. Lots of things that dad likes get unbought when a new baby comes.

Still: Some dad things will be bought. Wilco's new CD is a must. The Simpson's 4th season DVD set will be bought eventually. And this video card will eventually find it's way to my home. And ...I bought a new shirt today at Banana Republic.
