Blues for a Thursday

Not really blues, but anyway.

Again- no one came by my office hours today. It wasn't a total loss, I did a bunch of paperwork that means I'll get reimbursed for my upcoming trip to San Antonio.

I'm sitting here killing time before the jazz class so I thought I'd share a few things.

1) It's 10:45a and 54 degrees. In February. In Kansas. I know, I know. There are any number of other places I could be where this would be normal. But I'm not in any of those places, so this is freakin' brilliant. It might hit 70 today. I broke out the blue Kangol in celebration.

2) Greg Maddux, I love you- but don't fuck with me like this. "Once I saw the choices in front of me, it was pretty much a no-brainer," Bullshit it was a no-brainer. If it was such a no-brainer, why'd you string us along for a month. OK, there- I've vented. Happy thoughts now.

3) Yes, it's been gone over in a few other places but. . .
Gary Barnett burn in hell. Yeah, it's harsh. But I have no patience for individuals as classless as him.

OK, class time. . .

Was he this big of a tool at Northwestern? I wasn't really following them back then and all I ever heard was ROSE BOWL, so I guess no one seemed to notice that much.

I don't remember him being this big a tool until he lied about wanting to leave Northwestern.

It's warm here too. Around 40 degrees, methinks.

Yay, Maddux is back!!

Yeah, that's been all over the MUG boards today. Pretty amusing, yo.

i think maddux actually did want to come to chicago the entire time, unless LA made him an offer because it was so close to home. but he had to wait until the sale of the team and the appointment of a new gm before he would even know if they would make him an offer. yes, i do think he may be bullshitting us, but i also see where he could be telling the truth. never the less i'm happy he's here.
