Well, didn't Atlas carry the world on his shoulders? And men with elephantiasis have to deal with this, um, problem. Surely the great Becks can handle it (no pun intended)...but what an icky visual!!

Ah, yessss, but as Ayn said, at least Atlas could "shrug" if he opted to relieve himself of the weight and bother...
Mr. Beckham's snippy "option" is far less poetic and far more painful to consider...even as a Rand-om metaphor. Sorry guys.

JK,
Oooh! You're so right, I'm sorry. I'll be he DOES have cute footies, too! He probably pedis on a regular basis. 'Doubt his feet are golden, though. That might make it rather hard to do all that running around and disrobing that the does. Oh, and doesn't he kick stuff, too?
I kid.

I was particularly pleased to see the Steelers beat the local hometown Redskins in NFL football over the weekend. I wait all year for NFL football -- and now it's baaaaaaaaaack!!!!
Other teams to despise  -- the Ravens (just up the road in Baltimore), the Eagles (intrastate rivalry, whom we play this weekend), and of course ... the Cowboys. My favorite teams are the Steelers and whoever is playing the Cowboys. You can't graduate from high school in Pittsburgh without signing an affidavit that says the same.

OK, I'll behave. April, I gottah admit, I'm a Cleveland girl...born and raised on the Browns. So, I believe that puts us at NFL odds. But, since I haven't followed 'em since Brian Sipe, I guess I won't hold your Steelers colors against ya. Do ya not like the Ravens because of the Modell/Cleveland connection, or whah? I'm just curious.

The Browns background history doesn't help, but honestly, I don't like the Ravens because their fans are completely obnoxious and the teammates disrespectful and arrogant. Being from Cleveland's ok ... but you should be in my house when the Steelers play the Bengals ... coz Greg grew up in Cincinnati!

I know the Ravens were the Browns originally -- that's the whole point! We hated the Browns so the Ravens are despised by default. Having the 'new' Browns to despise too is just a bonus

I've heard two different stories about how the team came to be called the Browns ... one is that the owner at the time was named Brown, and so the team became his namesake.
The second reason shouldn't be repeated in polite company.

And pink is the new black. QED, is pink the new brown? And if so, what is brown doing now?
