… "she ran calling Wildfire!" Oh sorry, didn't realize you had arrived. I was just catching up on my Hits of the 70's box set and crooning a little tune about "What's Hot" in California right now. Seems like everyone's pretty much forgotten about the whole recall election circus now that the entire state has gone up in flames faster than you can say, "charcoal briquet"! Or perhaps this is just God's way to letting everyone know He's not a big Arnold Schwarzenegger fan, eh? Well if that's the case, I guess He's not a San Diego Charger fan either (and who is?), as the powers that be (in the NFL mind you , not those "on high") decided that they didn't want to see an entire stadium of fans, and Ricky Williams' dreadlocks, go up in flames (can you say "Blackened Monday"?) so they opted to move the Monday Night Football game from San Diego, to Tempe, Arizona. Can you imagine what would've happened had they stayed at Qualcomm? I think it might have gone something like this: MICHAELS: "Man, Drew Brees is hot right now! Now back to the music! Here's a little song parody, courtesy of a collaborative effort between The Commish and Kevin Kelly. These two are no Simon and Garfunkel mind you, and that's mainly because they'd both be Paul Simon and no one would be Garfunkel! Kelly's about the same size as Paul Simon and The Commish is as bald, but they'll pass. So fire up The Commish's Office karaoke machine and join in as we sing along with The Blue Oyster Cult… Not Burnin' For You
Meanwhile back in The Rowdy, things got a little heated up at the bottom of the standings as the Top 5 teams in the league all lost! In an unprecedented event, Cortisone Injection, The Bi-Polar Bears, Late For Luau, No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls, and Mr. Underhill's Credit Card all tasted defeat this past week and as a result we've got quite a logjam now as no less than ten different teams stand at 4 - 4 or better. Kevin Kelly-Simon's Cortisone Injection is still leading the pack at 6 - 2, but as we head into the final two weeks of byes and turn the corner towards December (and aren't the leaves pretty this time of year), this league is still pretty much anyone's to claim, provided they can get hot at the right time. Still, I shutter to think of what might happen if one of the 2 - 6 teams catches fire all of a sudden! Then again, perhaps I should rephrase that… Gotta run! I need to hit the road as I hear they might move the Jets-Giants game to Tempe as well this week. No, they're not afraid of fire, quite the opposite actually. With both of these teams absolutely ice cold of late, they're afraid of frostbite! So let's go to the desert… 'til next week…
