John Gonzalez of the Philadelphia Inquirer had a piece yesterday that devolved into who he'd like to Tase. Some of them are pretty funny, particularly the one about Derek Jeter. This sounds like fun. I have a list, too, although I'm going to try to limit mine because I don't know if its healthy to hang onto that much animosity but a little bit is fun.
- To the lady in front of me the other day who came to a complete stop and still made a diagonal left turn which only annoyed me but scared the hell out of the oncoming traffic on both the street she was on and the street she turned onto. Two Tases.
- To ALL sports pundits. You have the best job in the world. You get to watch sports, talk to the great athletes, and write about it for a living. I'm giving the whole lot of you One Tase because so many of you are so bad at it and so wrong too much of the time.
- To ALL Reality Shows for taking up entirely too much network air time. One Tase.
- To Mike Florio of NBC Sports for some of his idiocy yesterday. He got one Tase with the group of sports pundits but I thought I needed to pile on for his take on Kurt Warner. It is widely believed that Warner will announce his retirement today. Is Florio waxing poetic about the accomplishments of Kurt Warner during his quite amazing, quite compelling career? No, he's concerned about whether Warner will give back a portion of his signing bonus. Two additional Tases for you, Florio.
- To Tiger Woods for that spectacular belly flop off of the high dive. Three Tases.
Got any of your own?

Blog of the day is here.
Quote from said blog: "It's hard to compare teams from different conferences, but this season the Colts and Saints both crossed with the AFC East, meaning we have a few data points on which we can compare the two teams. Of course, the Colts tanked two of those AFC East games, so tighten things up slightly."
Not a big fan of these types of comparisons but they're unavoidable and enticing. -Rob
I think you're morally sound Rob, unless you start wanting to tase your disabled neighbor across the street.. the one who insists you go to the store for her every day for cigarettes..and never stops calling your house with weather and crime reports..
Thanks, Susan. I'm never sure about that morally sound business. :)
The right to a jury trial probably makes it legally sound also, at least as far as sports pundits go.
Another sports pundit on display today, Dave. Clark Judge is about the same as the rest of them except he uses his last name to try to lend his "Judgements" a little more weight. He's a dweeb that deserves an extra couple of Tases, too.
