    So anyway, I prefer a more balanced mix of strategy and open play, with Aussie Rules and rugby being too open, and football being too strategic, to make truly compelling games. Basketball, soccer, and hockey are far and away my favorite games (hockey used to be my favorite games, but it has been somewhat perverted by recent trends and rule changes).

    Well, I love soccer, and I think I'd probably like hockey. I've never been a fan of the mechanics of basketball, but I will admit that it has some of the best "holy shit" moments of any game, ever.

    My voice is so lovely when I'm reciting Shakespeare.

    Why or why could I not have grown up around drama fops so as to have that voice as my default rather than my mumbling throat-growl.

    It's pretty, but it needs more diversity in its psychos. All you have is the 'huge meaty guy who will break with just his neck'. There's only one trick that guy can pull off, over and over again. You need some smaller crazies. Like this guy.
    To be honest, I see better catches than that every week during the football season.

    Schammer's catch wasn't a great one, it's just one of the few I could find on youtube. But Johnson is a wide receiver; all he does is train non- stop to pull off that one move, and he still doesn't have to get as high or climb past as many guys to do it.

    I was trying to find a video of the 2005 game where Santana Moss rips the Cowboys' secondary twice, late in the game, and single-handedly wins it. They were spectacular catches.

    AFL has a rough-and-tumble loutishness that is somewhat appealing.

    NFL is like a finely-honed commercial product, and AFL still feels like kids bashing each other in the playground.

    I mean, they're both crap compared to cricket, but whatever.

    Wait, so because they only "pull off that one move" (watch the video, he has lots of moves), he's somehow less entertaining than a less impressive play by somebody who can't specialize?

    I am going to a Rice baseball game this Saturday.

    So, Church and confession were kind of strange. Like they made me feel a lot better. I was only asked to say one Our Father, and the priest was nice enough to lead me through it.

    The mass/service was very brief. Just 30 minutes. The first reading was Genesis, about Adam naming the animals and the creation of Eve. The second reading was about Jesus in Tyre, and a pagan woman asking for his help to cure daughter.

    I uh, also bought a Bible today.

    Oh man, soon I shall have to fear Loren Michael's wrath.

    He's less entertaining than AFL players who do it better, and he's less impressive than players who's marking abilities are only a small part of their overall talent.

    Why buy a Bible when you can get one free from Gideon. Just steal it from the next hotel you stay in. Or from the church. I'm sure God'll forgive you for doing it.
