Barry Obamer

Much has been made about Barak Obama (or Barry Obamer as Ted Kennedy calls him) and his association with JWright, a controversial, firebrand of a pastor at BHO's church. Now, obviously, African Americans and Anglo Americans have differing views on America and its greatness, and rightfully so. JWright had some pretty damning comments about America in a recent sermon. BHO has distanced from some of JWright's comments, but not the man himself. Sticking with your friends is a good thing, however, here's the rub, Barry: Regardless of the media's wishes, you're going to need the white guy vote to win this thing. One thing white guy voter doesn't dig is anti-American sentiment, regardless of the back story (slavery, racial injustice, etc.). As stated here in 2007 (Why color is a factor) BHO's greenness, not his blackness would probably be the "color" that would keep him out of the White House, and that lack of experience is showing in his refusal to distance completely from ol' JWright.

CM's outward sports contradictions

I hate the Eagles, yet I watch Invincible constantly. Great film.

I hate the Oklahoma Sooners more than any college team, yet I believe Bob Stoops is the finest college football coach in the country. When my sons ask me what a college football coach looks like, I'll begrudgingly point to Stoops. He's classy, plus his favorite food is steak, and as he says: "I don't feel any explanation is necessary on that one"

I hate the Packers as well, hell I hate all NFL teams not named the Dallas Cowboys, yet Brett Favre is hands down the most talented QB I've ever seen. Great arm, great release, good size, good speed, and tougher than a government mule. Looking at him in the huddle, you have to think you've always got a chance. Montana and Unitas were geniuses, Bradshaw and Aikman are big horses with big arms, Tom Brady and Roger Staubach are cool under pressure, Marino and Fouts are brilliant pure passers. John Elway is the only one that compares to Favre physically, and Favre has a better arm and is a lil' quicker than Elway. Plus he never misses games....Ever.

The 2007 NY Giants were the best team in football. No lucky bounces, no bullshit calls, they earned that ring...My hatred for them goes without saying.

The Redskin cheerleaders are better looking than the Cowboys' cheerleaders. Watch the sidelines of Redskin games if you get a chance, they have one in particular that makes me excuse myself for 3.6 minutes, then return to watching the game not as interested in her as before, then after a hoagie, I regain interest...Again, I have a deep hatred of the Redskins.

All of the Boston Mass.(BC, Celtics, Pats, BoSox) hype gets on my nerves, but my travels around the nation tell me they have the best fans, edging out New York,Philly and Chicago. All of the winning makes them cocksuckers tho'.....But I ain't bitter.

The 49ers are quite bi-curious as well, yet Bill Walsh's offense is my Bible of the passing game.

LeBron James seems like a better, more likable human than Kobe Bryant, (James's son is named Maximus) but for the past 3 years and for the forseeable future, Kobe is the best player in the world. His ability to handle the basketball is the key to his game. You could vote him or Tim Duncan MVP every year, and I wouldn't have a problem wid it.

Remember, when you want to see....Aww fuck it, my recurring cybersegments end up failing any way (It's good to be the King, anybody, anybody?)

Madden '08 update:Draft and Free Agent flurry makes CM's Texans contenders

After surging to a 9-7 record in 2008, narrowly missing the playoffs, CM's cyber Texans have added LT Kyle Schaffer, and DT Albert Haynesworth in free agency, to go along with draft day deals that netted RB Jerrious Norwood, DE Gaines Adams and the biggest prize: QB JaMarcus Russell. The O line and linebackers and secondary were addressed in the draft, with speed being the objective. The only drawback is that we will be over the cap in 2010. Oh well, the future is now.
