Merry Blogsmas

Hey Everybody! Sliding in under the wire on my self-imposed blog requirements, mostly just to wish the goyim (that's you if you don't know what it means) a Merry Christmas and to quickly mention the momentous sporting events we all have to look forward to on this most Jesus-y of days. First on tap, the 12:30 ET Spurs-Pistons showdown which (in addition to being a 2005 NBA Finals rematch) should tell us who is the best team in the NBA right now! Don't change that channel when it's over, because at 3 ET we've got our annual Kobe-Shaq Christmas Extravaganza, hyper-hyped this year thanks to the subtext of Riles v. Phil. Finally, at 5 ET (and you can all thank Fox for making this a national broadcast) we all get to see the Bears - they of the healthy Rex Grossman - clinch the NFC North and a first round playoff bye. Enough then, you all have work to do. Enjoy your sport-filled holiday, and remember: don't drink and drive. Or at least don't drink while you drive. Or at least give the beers to the guy in the back seat before the cop gets up to your window. L'chaim.
