Quick Links...

No time to write today, but a couple of links that should kill the time you'd normally spend wondering why I thought my previous night's dream was worthy of publishing...

1. For anyone who missed the UW v. UCLA game on Sunday, it was a "chippy", physical mess...but extraordinarily entertaining. Most notably when Tim Morris threw a ball at Alfred Aboya's face as hard as he could.

2. Bill alerted me of the ridiculousness of Kanye West's acceptance speech at the Grammy's. (And Vince Gill's phenomenal follow-up.) Let me just say that if you're getting punked by Vince Gill, it is probably time to reassess your approach to things...

3. It came out yesterday that John Rocker claims that Bud Selig knew that Rocker was taking steroids in the 2000 season. Well thanks, John. Did you really think that there was doubt there? There are people who don't know what steroids are who knew that you were taking them. This news is about as surprising as when George Michael came out of the closet. (Woah woah---THIS George Michael, not THAT George Michael...)

4. Thought water-boarding was bad? There are reports from a probe into the CIA that Afghani prisoners being held at Guantanamo Bay were forced to watch this for three hours on end, and began strangling themselves with their handcuffs. I'd rather watch this for eternity than have to see that video again. Not only is it more entertaining, it is more athletic.
