I guess this pretty much me....especially the moody part as everyone who has ever met me will be happy to tell you...hopefully you find me charming though :-)

Lot of close MAC games this weekend (including Eastern beating Central in OT for the first win of Directional Michigan games)...unfortunately BG's game wasn't. Bowling Green got blasted by Boise State on the wacky blue turf. BG QB Jacobs lost him dark horse Heisman chances. Oh well...at least my brother Justin was going to see one of his two schools win this game.

God? Never met him

No surprise here...

You are Agonistic

You're not sure if God exists, and you don't care. For you, there's no true way to figure out the divine. You rather focus on what you can control - your own life. And you tend to resent when others "sell" religion to you.

What's Your Religious Philosophy?

Ouch...humiliating "performance" by my alma mater against hated Michigan. This was an all too familiar sight Saturday afternoon...UM players running into the endzone with Eastern cornerbacks spread out on the ground (try not to get distracted by the skirts of the UM cheerleaders.) This after making a silly prediction to Brynn and Chach about the Eastern fight song being played at the end of the game and 105,000 people killing themselves as one. Eastern didn't even score! Dreadful. I hate Michigan.
Rough week for the rest of the MAC...except for another Toledo blowout.

*Bloggers warning* the following contains incessant whining from a guy who can't talk about his feelings to actual people so he instead writes them in his silly blog

Way too tired, listening to way too much slow angst Adam music, can't stop the whining from finally entering my blog (hey, can't write about sports forever)..

mom's in the hospital again, it really sucks. Obviously she has is much worse than we do, but it's hard to watch someone you love repeatedly suffering. Hard not to question things about faith (not that I had anyway). Though she doesn't, proving she's so much stronger and courageous than I will ever hope to be. Wish I could take her place, but she would never allow it. Visiting her today, in all her pain and frustration she's talking to me about the Hens in order to cheer me up. My friends think I am nothing but mean to her...actually I am in awe of her as a person. Wish I was a tenth the person she is. Constantly in fear of that phone call from dad. Hope I go before I ever get it. Could never take it.

I simply wish I could come close to being the man my father is. I know I never will be. He's a giant.

I have a great gf who certainly deserves better than a frustrated, parttime bookseller/graduate student. Only a matter of time before she figures that out. Holding out hope that she never does.

No shortage of great friends, but I don't get to see them nearly as much as I want to. Feel like I'm just a peripheral friend to them. Missing out on way too much of their lives. Afraid I'll become an afterthought for some of them. Afraid I already have.

Two great brothers, one who I am simply not close enough to (literally and figuratively) and a younger one who has outgrown me. Become a better, more complete person than I have. Admire them for the dreams they constantly chase, not always successfully, but chase them they do anyway. Never discouraged by life. They keep their heads up. Wish I could learn to dream from them.

Wandering through life...care about alot but not anything that I do. Hide behind sports and sarcasm. Afraid of life and afraid to live. Waiting to become the man I should be...anyday now.


Wow....certainly hope no one is still reading. Sorry, though a good friend did once encourage me to open myself up here. Don't worry, the next post will be about sports.

Champion Hens!!!

Finally my hometown team has won a title. Congrats to one of the greatest teams in Toledo baseball history!

One More Win...

One more victory (which will have to come in the three remaining games at Victory Field in Indianapolis) and the Toledo Mud Hens will win their first IL Governor's Cup since 1967. GO HENS!!!

pucker up baby!

Damn straight...

The below picture is at Peden Stadium where Ohio University pulled off a shocking win against Pitt in OT. Congrats to Athens! Also impressive wins by both my schools Eastern and Toledo. And NIU coach Joe Novak (no, not OUR Joe Novak) should be hung for his decision to go for 2 after his team drove all the way down and scored against Northwestern in the closing seconds. Umm..Coach...you were going to get the ball in OT, it's not the stupid NFL sudden death, way to cost your team the game.

are you Toledo's Own Max Klinger?

I was kinda hoping more for Hawkeye or Trapper or even Winchester....should I be concerned I came out as the priest?

ATTENTION! ALL PERSONNEL!

You are

Father John Francis Patrick Mulcahy

Well, you're not really him; you just resemble this fictional character. A bit.
Let's get that straight before you start administering the last rites or teaching nuns how to box.

Goodbye Jerry

And Thank You

ouch....the MAC kinda got stomped this weekend, with only Toledo winning against a cupcake and the rest of the conference serving as the Big 10's cupcakes. BG gave Wisconsin a valiant shot but couldn't even slow down their running game. Who knew that Eastern would actually put up the best effort from a MAC team against a "big" conference? It would've been a HUGE win for Eastern on the road against a Conference USA team...damn.

from a Cub blog I like to read, the Ivy Chat...thought it was appropriate
(the stuff at the bottom is all me...don't wanna get anyone else in trouble for being a godless socialist like me)

Legend has it that Emperor Nero fiddled while Rome burned.

What does President Bush do while New Orleans floods?



hey Christian right....where was your president when his nation needed him the most, making crucial decisions BEFORE the hurricane and floodwaters hit New Orleans and the South? on vacation...
and come to think of it....where was your God?
