A Case of the Mondays

Well, this was a lazy weekend! But here's all I can come up with-

- I'm still beyond stoked about Jay Cutler. After watching the press conference, I'm sold on him. Looks like game three of the preseason will be pretty awesome (Bears @ Denver.)

- I saw Martin Sexton at Harlow's. He is very good live. Excellent guitar player and very soulful vocals. The unfortunate thing was that I wasn't very familiar with his catalog, so it was harder to get into, but I am going to try and listen more.

- Finally watched "Twilight." It wasn't my favorite movie, but it wasn't as bad as many of the haters will lead you to believe. I'm not going out of my way to recommend it, but overall I was entertained.

- Drafting Derek Lowe for my fantasy baseball team is going to work out just fine. He pitched a savage game against the defending champs tonight. He was extremely efficient and his sinker caused the Phillies' hitters to beat the ball into the ground. Cannot wait for the Cubs' first game tomorrow.

- Last, I watched a special on CBS before the Michigan State/UCONN game Saturday about college athletic program budgets and corporate sponsorships. They were talking all about how corporate sponsorships have a place in collegiate athletics as long as it is tasteful, yada yada yada. Immediately following this special, was a trailer/commercial for the new Terminator movie where they superimposed some of the Final Four players into terminator robots. Wow. I'm not necessarily in favor of paying college athletes, but you've got to be kidding me. Don't feed me bullshit about being tasteful then show me a trailer/commercial/game preview like that. It's like Michael Moore showing us a prologue to his movies of him counting his millions of dollars.
