The Morning After: November 5, 2009

The Morning AfterGood morning readers.  I hope you’re all having a good week thus far and aren’t clock-watching too awful much as we head toward the weekend.  Since I have nothing clever to say, I’d like to reprise an oldie, but goodie feature od Thursday TMA’s…this day in history:

 - The clutchiest clutchy baseball player in the history of clutch baseball players rumored to have herpes won the 1996 Rookie of the Year (Jeter, in case the context clues didn’t give it away).
 - Bobby Fisher beats Boris Spassky to with Chess title in Belgrade in 1992.
 - In the first NBA game at the Palace of Auburn Hills, Pistons beat Hornets 94-85 in 1988.
 - Mercury Morris, former Miami Dolphin, is sentenced to 20 years for drug trafficking, conspiracy, and possession of cocaine in 1981 (conviction overturned in 1986).
 - The 1971 LA Lakers win the first game of a 33-game winning streak.
 - The 1933 Chicago Bears lose 10-0 to the Patriots…ending a 30-game winning streak.

Aight, onto the links…

Some pontificating on the Brandon Spikes “punishment”.  Even Spikes thinks his punishment was too light…will punish himself one more half.

I hope the exposure was worth it for UCF.

CBH49er comes through yet again this week with his Week 10 Cram Session.

Yes, I’m stealing GatorTrey’s Wednesday TMA feature…Lane Kiffin News!!! – It learns!

While this is not a Michigan State blog, this is a Michigan State basketball preview.

Tiger and Phil are facing off again.

Blackhawks’ blackface…rut roh.  Here’s the pic.

Drunk Billy plead out.

Souvenir City takes a look at the alien’s Rajon Rondo’s new contract.

I agree with this NASCAR official.

Levi-Strauss died…the anthropologist, not the jeans.

MLB shows Congress its appreciation for its antitrust exemption.  The New York governor got in on some tickets too.

The SEC likely won’t be near the cellar again in college basketball this year.

This is freaking awesome:
