08.31.07 WEEKEND PICKS: GET YOUR TROJANS WET
What to watch for in this weekend's matchups. Home teams in ALL CAPS.
WET SONG GIRLS over Song Girls — More pics of Havasu-frolicking USC cheerleaders at WeAreSC.
Appalachian State over #5 MICHIGAN — Totally. Upset special, baby.
METS-PHILLIES over Angels-Mariners — Seriously, the Mariners' tailspin means it could be a while before I write about baseball again. As for Mets-Phils, Bugs & Cranks has a pretty sweet video of the upper deck brawl that erupted between fans. I guess going down a row of people and telling each person, "You're a pussy" isn't as wise as it sounds.
NHL over NBA — Ha! Not really. But the Dallas Stars' new ad campaign is mildly humorous (thanks, Alex).
NORTHWESTERN over Northeastern — Wait, those are colleges? I was just talking about ordinal directions.
Enjoy Labor Day, beautiful people. I plan on taking Monday off, unless I wake up and decide that sitting hunched over a laptop sounds more attractive than drinking and going to the park and looking at girls in bikinis. Kevin will be here Saturday and Sunday — feel free to keep him company.

Those trombones are gonna get rusty.

I LOVE YOU RUTH.
As far as I know, the NHL–as opposed to the NBA–has no female refs. This makes that whole only-shaving-the-ice thing okay.
WITHLEATHER.COM over Actual Work - I had to work alot this week and spent little time here. If I could get paid to write dumb comments all day about sports I'd quit my day job at the Sperm Bank. You hiring Matt?
Hey, neat. I'm Alex. Glad you got the email. Here are the ads, if anyone wants a visual.

They have a few others, but those don't insult other sports, so they're boring.
Lionel Hutz should sue the NHL for slander.
Texas…implying that Matt's job is to "write dumb comments all day about sports" is probably not the route to take when inquiring about job openings…Mentioning your hook-ups at a variety of NY strip joints, forwarding a series of unreleased ScarJo photos, pointing out your love of Strunk & White and/or describing your penchant for late-night hobo killings might be more lucrative.
Those songs girls probably have a sausage wallet (I think that what the kids are calling it these days) the size of a trombone! Its self cleaning as well so it never gets rusty.
willus…. is there an echo in here? TITO ORTIZ LIKES JENNA JAMESON - "I believe she's what the kids these days are calling a "sausage wallet." - 08/28/2007 15:10stay original, bro…
Sweetness, first, no one likes a suck up. But I think what my Texas brother was saying was that these comments–his, mine, and I'm sure we can agree yours–are the dumb comments about sports.
Hell of a week for Appalachian State publicity. On here, sbB, coming out of the donut hole of Miss South Carolina, etc. Go Mountaineers!
On another note, the combination of bleeding mascara and them on their backs w/ their legs in the air, the USC cheerleaders are ready for the football season as well.
That last SongGirl pic will stay with me forever.
Sausage wallet?
I'm going to start "hot dog coin purse"
You heard it here first.
In the first half of App ST vs UM, you are looking like a genius

Matt Ufford, you're a fucking witch.
Note to self: Bet Matt's picks.
Way to go Deliverance State!
Matt's a robot from the future. That's what he is.
Matt Ufford: Smarter than all of ESPN's "experts" put together. Inspired pick, sir.
Holy Shit. Please pick Bama for NC.
Fuck Michigan!
@Tim: fyi, Deliverance was filmed in Tallulah Falls in Georgia, and on the Chattooga River between GA and SC, not North Carolina.
No freakin' way! I didn't read this post until now and I refuse to believe that you called A State prior to the game. Un-be-freakin-believable!
I bow to your prognosticating skills, Caveman.

Until that last comma, I thought you were talking about the Michigan defense.
