Sportress Of Blogitude: Wade Phillips may not be fat or have a sense of humor, but at least he’s fat and has a sense of humor.

Last Call: The Case Of The Mondays Edition

You can clearly see the dog mask on this guy.

Image

Last Call is an ever evolving, hopefully, post that is so much more than a post. It’s a collection of funny pictures, sexy pictures, the best Internet links of the day, awesome music, interesting music videos and a place for the commenters to congregate and have open discourse with like minded people. If there’s anything you’d like to see here, or see changed, get a hold of me by Twitter or by Email.

Musical Interlude:

Linkage:

Tech Crunch: Could Facebook be bigger than Google in 5 years? This guy makes a pretty compelling argument.
Reportr: The NPR did a study on the effectiveness of Twitter as a social media tool compared to Facebook. It turns out Twitter has far less value in driving traffic, even on a per capita basis.
Tech Dirt: A guy is building a WORKING COMPUTER from inside the confines of a video game. Think about that for a minute, but not so hard that your mind asplodes.
SB Nation: Hot damn. Spencer does it again with this week’s Alphabetical. I wish there was an NFL writer on his level. If there is and I don’t know of him, or her, feel free to point them out.
EDSBS: Holly presents this week’s Best In Class awards for CFB.
Ottawa Citizen: Proving I’m late to the party, as always, here’s Hunter S. Thompson’s application to the Vancouver Sun. I miss the good doctor.

Last Call: The Spotting Edition

Last Call is, well you know what it is. IF you don’t, go back and look through the archives. There, I said it. Also, since a lot of y’all complained about the ability or inability to go back through the archives, I changed the site layout. More changes will be happening, but its gonna take some time.

Musical Interlude:

Linkage:

Sports Illustrated: Joe Posnanski compares the careers of Nolan Ryan to Ichiro Suzuki. Really. Joe proves once again that he knows more about baseball than I’ll know about everything else combined over the rest of my life.
Sportress of Blogitude: The security at the upcoming Commonwealth Games is literally a barrel of monkeys. Weed’s words, not mine. My brother would probably try to fight Weed for his use of the word Literally, but he kind of tries to fight everyone who says that.
Daddys Sugar Ball: Something about the Phillies. It’s baseball, so I didn’t really read it but their work is always good, so whatever.
SB Nation: This weeks version of the Alphabetical. Huzzah!

Musical Interlude:

DJ Phoenix: A friend of mine has released a new free album as a sort of counter point to the album of his that’s for sale on iTunes and what not. I recommend it if you’re into electronic music.

Daddys Sugar Ball: The thinker’s five thoughts on the NFL’s week three.
