Oh yeah, don't think I didn't notice that.

T.O. update: He's denying everything. Says that he only took a few extra pills because the pain in his hand had increased and that whacked him out a bit, so his publicist called 911. The publicist is denying everything in the police report (that she said he was depressed, that she had to remove pills from his mouth). T.O. claims that the 35 pills weren't ingested, rather he had taken them out of the bottle and put them in a drawer.

I don't know. I mean, there's a lot of detail in that police report that just doesn't jive with T.O.'s account. What about the whole "were you trying to harm yourself" bit? What motivation does the PD have to lie about that, especially since the police report is, as one reporter pointed out, a sworn statement.

If he took the four or five Vicodin he admitted too then very likely he had no idea what they were asking him or what his responses meant.

Actually, on this one I have no problem believing T.O. He hurt, he took a pill. Still hurt, took some more. Got loopy. Scared publicist who was able to imagine all kinds of reasons he'd try to kill himself and she calls 911. T.O. is now stoned out of his gourd and isn't a rational participant in the conversation.

Publicist is now doing a poor job by denying what she said rather than admitting to it and saying she jumped to conclusions and was wrong.

Yeah, I guess that's what's standing out to me is mostly her contradictions. The pills in the drawer thing is a little weird, but maybe he's got one of those old man pill-a-day boxes that he filled up.

Son of a...

So, in my other league, where I am dead last, I finished yesterday tied with my opponent, and only player left to play today was my quarterback, Rex Grossman. Going in, he's one of the hottest QBs playing. All I needed him to do was throw for 50 yeards, then take a knee for the rest of the game. What do I get instead? 4 freaking interceptions and a lost fumble. Right now, he's netted me a -8 points.

Right now, even if the bears drive the length of the field, entirely on passing and score a touchdown....I still end up back even. Bastard.

ETA: CRAP! Punt return for a touchdown, Grossman doesn't even get the ball. They're going to win this game without an offensive touchdown.

ETAM: Damnit, Arizona couldn't even make the bloody field goal to give Grossman the chance for a last second desparation drive. Poop.

Looks like someone started the wrong quarterback last week.

Not that it would have mattered with Reggie Bush sucking it up.

Of course the week I don't even play I end up winning.......go figure.

MickeyLumbo · 11-05-2006, 09:21 AM

that is also the likely way my luck would run, sleepyjeff.

and btw, sorry that i missed meeting you while you were here.

i hear al micheals and john madden... but it's a sunday and NBC.

that second-hand smoke in high school really did do permanent damage.
