Wasn't MJ only 6'6"?

For a truly amazing elephant story you should read Modoc. In a nutshell it's a story about a boy and his elephant and their journey through life. Absolutely captivating. And yes, I cried at the end and at several points in the middle.

It's available at amazon.

I'm sure she'll regale us with her analysis of the intricacies of the Cover 2 and its effectiveness vis a vis a Zone Blitz scheme in third and long situations...

More likely, her head will explode when she tries to comprehend that Colts coach Tony Dungy used to coach the Bucs, and that he was fired in favor of Jon Gruden, who went from coaching one "pirate team" to another...

That is like a brief glimpse into the future.

Still, I am hoping we'll get her to Rush herself tonight.

But, unlike Rush, she could claim she had no idea what she was saying.

Despite that, she apparently is nonetheless smarter than her boyfriend, Scott Erickson.

"Coach Dungy, do you think your team is undefeated because of the lucky horseshoes on your helmets?"

Personally, I'm hoping she'll be inspecting the business end of one of the cannon on the pirate ship when they finally get Keyshawn the damn ball in the end zone...

Too easy. You just described Bilbo Baggins in the first movie. He's MUCH younger than I am. Try again.

Wouldn't a Cubs/Red Sox series be fun? The Cubs fans travel well, so the fights in the stands would be worth the price of admission themselves... Almost a hundred years each of pent-up aggression unleashed.

No, it wouldn't. Because anything and everything involving the Red Sox sucks.

It would, but it would hardly count if the Cubs beat the Sox instead of the Yankees. You don't really win the Series unless you beat the Yankees at some point in the playoffs.

That said, it wouldn't matter to Sox fans if they lost to the Cubs. If they beat the As, their World Series starts in the Bronx on Wednesday.
