Friday Afternoon Thoughts

by C-lo

Text messages from Sondog to rub it in my face that he's somewhere warm and fun and I'm stuck in this hell hole of an office:
"I just caught a foul ball!" This one left me picturing Sondog jumping over the row in front of him and knocking some kid out of the way to catch a baseball hit by some no name 5th outfielder. In this picture, Sondog's head is the color of the stitches on that baseball.
"I just talked to Matheny and got his autograph." Not cool...not cool. I bet he was all hot and sweaty. Yeah baby!

Adam Morrison is a big baby. Not only does he have the world's worst child pornographer mustache, but I had to watch it quiver as he cried like a baby in last night's game against UCLA before the game was even over!! Dude, you still have a chance to win...quit crying. And then to just throw himself on the floor in some temper tantrum because they lost...he lost all respect from me at that moment. Weak, weak, weak.

Niner's Sign Larry Allen: Warn the Burger Joints and Coke Dealers
One of my favorite moments from working for the Cowboys was watching Larry Allen (6' 3", 325lbs and even heavier when this took place) attempt to get into his "custom-fit" Ferrari. You could tell he had a system worked out. Right foot in, right knee in, right hip in, right shoulder, duck the head, and squeeze the left side in. OR, get a bigger ride. Mercy. Enjoy him though. Maybe now Alex Smith can stay upright for enough plays to get some touchdowns. Quote from Mike Nolan: "Though we've got basic young toughness in our group, it's good to have a guy who says it's OK to be nasty and do what you need to do." Get nasty brother.

Random thoughts:
-I would hate for my last name to be Pittsnogle (by the way, what a game?!)
-I bought an external hard drive for my computer at work for storing all of my personal stuff. I now have a most impressive collection of music at my fingertips all day long. It's beautiful. I must say that I have everything from Ella Fitzgerald, to Willie Nelson, to Ludacris, to Pearl Jam. Amazing!
-How many people plan on watching the George Mason vs. Witchita State game tonight? Good, that makes one of you. (I'm just bitter because my bracket stinks)

Sondog, come back!!

The rule, as always, is that I rule...

And for the record, it was two 60-year-olds... but that story will come next week in my first post upon my return.

Also, the irony of a Cowboy ex-emplyoee/current-fan writing about Sonoma State's finest OL playing for the Niners is astounding. It's very ironical.
