Public Knowledge

I do not pretend to know what many ignorant men are sure of.  -Clarence Darrow

Public Knowledge:

1.  Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.  That’s right, welcome to hell.  Welcome to New England Patriots football.  Invlnerable.  Invincible.  Incredible.  Indomitable.  Impregnable.  I’m coming for you man. My style is impetuous. My defense is impregnable, and I’m just ferocious.  I want your heart.  I want to eat his children.  Praise be to  Allah!  You may not like it, but you are witnessing what greatness is all about.  This is by far the most dominating football team I have ever witnessed.  Fifty-six points?  Are you kidding me?  Who’s gonna beat these guys?  The Eagles next week?  The Steelers?  The Steelers, who just lost to the Jets?  The Giants?  Fuhgettaboutit!  Pinky, are you pondering what I’m pondering?  I think so, Brain, but what if the chicken won’t wear the nylons?

2.  A-Broad wins the MVP.  Good for him.  Lump him with the rest of those cats.  You know who I’m talking about.  The usual suspects.  The Dan Marinos.  The Mailmen.  The Round Mounds.  The Barry Bondseses.  The Marcel Dionnes.  Those guys there.  And you know what they say.  They say, it don’t mean a thing if you ain’t got that ring.  Doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah.

3.  That’s the sound of the men working on the chain ga-a-ang.  Speaking of lumping guys with other guys.  No, not Mike Piazza.  Mike Vick.  From dirty bird to jail bird.  Lump him with Doc Gooden.  Darryl Strawberry.  Those two will forever be linked.  Linked in shame. Lump him with Mike Tyson.  Lump him with Mike Danton.  Rae Caruth.  Pete Rose.  Art Schlichter.  Ray Lewis.  Marvin Barnes.  Denny McLain.  Hollywood Henderson.  Guys like that there.  Guys who had a good thing but it wasn’t enough.  Too much is never enough.  They needed more.  But, like my main man Tony Baretta always says:  “Don’t go to bed, with no price on your head.  No, no, don’t do it.  Don’t do the crime, if you can’t do the time.  Yeah, don’t do it.  And keep your eye on the sparrow.  When the going gets narrow.

4.  Have you been watching NBA action?  Fan-tastic!  Have you been watching the Orlando Magic?  That’s a good ball club.  A very good ball club.  While everyone, myself included, have been yammering on and on about them Celtics, these Magic just keep winning games.  They have the most victories in the NBA.  They have the best road record in the league.  Most importantly, they have Dwight Howard.  Thunder.  D-12.  Man Child.  Dwizzle.  Glass.  Ya, him.  Dwight Howard had twenty-four points last night.  Dwight Howard had fifteen rebounds last night.  Dwight Howard was just named the Eastern Conference’s Player of the Week averaging 23.3 points and a conference-best 13.3 rebounds.  He scored a career-high tying 35 points against Cleveland.  He became the youngest player in NBA history to amass 3,000 career rebounds.  He s a beast.  A beast in the East.  Careful Celtics, he already did it to you once.  Don’t let him do it to you last.

5.  Thank God.  Thank God for giving Theo Epstien the power to sign Mike Lowell.  I was sweating bullets over this one.  Sweating hand grenades.  Curt Schilling:  “”How cool is that?  Leaving years and dollars on the table to come back here for three more years, good stuff.  Pretty nice to think you are fans in a town that is now a desired destination for athletes across the major sports.  Come a long way for sure.”  Yup just like Virginia Slims.  We’ve come a long way baby.

6.  Lil Romeo to play for USC, huh?  And you thought the OJ Mayo thing was a circus.  Just wait ’till next year.  In every class, there’s always one joker who thinks that he’s smarter than me.  In this class, that happens to be you.  Isn’t it, Mayo-naise?  Next year it’ll be Little Bow Wow.  Er, Lil Romeo.  Whatever.  I’ll tell you this though.  I went to high school with Michael Bivens.  Bell Biv Devoe.  Now you know.  He could ball.  I’m not sure what that has to do with Lil Romeo.  Just made me think of it.  Happens sometimes.  Actually more than not.

7.  I guess Stephon learned his lesson.  True to his word, as always, Isiah will be starting Starbury tonight.  This after Zeke kicked the entire Knick team after practice.  We’re sitting here, and I’m supposed to be the franchise player, and we’re talking about practice. I mean listen, we’re sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we’re talking about practice.  Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game last it’s my last but we’re talking about practice man.  How silly is that?  Really silly.  Imagine being David Lee or Renaldo Balkman right now.  What a joke the New York Knicks have become.  It’s truly one of the great tragedies in sports right now.

8.  Andrea Kramer thinks Tom Brady is dreamy:

9.  Jason Kidd is mad as hell and he’s not going to take it anymore.  Kidd:  “Everybody has people hurt, but they still play together and find a way to win.  Right now we’re not doing that.  We have to find a way.  That’s always been the motto, we’d find a way to win. Now we’re finding a way to lose.  That can be upsetting to anybody.”   Too bad it’s not upsetting to Nets fans.  Nets fans are the worst fans in the NBA.  They simply do not care.

10.  Patriots draft watch.  As things stand now, the Patriots have a pick in the 2-4 range next year.  C’mon you Jets.  C’mon you Dolphins.  C’mon you Rams.  C’mon you Raiders.

Peace out homies.  Six two and Even!
