Massive Scheduling Boner by Obama Transition: Inauguration vs. Football
Guess who's playing on Sunday night at the Lincoln Memorial as part of the opening event for the inauguration festivities? Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Bono, Garth Brooks, Sheryl Crow, Renee Fleming, Josh Groban, Herbie Hancock (!!), Heather Headley, John Legend, Jennifer Nettles, John Mellencamp, Usher, Shakira, Bruce Springsteen, James Taylor, will.i.am, and Stevie Wonder. (Don't live in DC? You can watch on some free HBO thing.)
You know who else is playing on Sunday night? The greatest professional sports franchise in the history of the United States (the Pittsburgh Steelers), which will take on a miserable bunch of thugs and complainers (the Baltimore Ravens) in an hard-nosed bad-blood knock-em-out match-up that will determine who gets to go to Super Bowl XLIII.
I've emailed the transition office to ask for a rescheduling. I'm not joking.
"...a miserable bunch of thugs and complainers..." who happen to have the best defense in the league...and will most likely steamroll Big Ben and his battered team. Talk to you on Monday...:)
Austin, dude, c'mon. You know and I know that the Steelers have the number one defense in the league. They keep stats on these things, and the stats have shown one truly dominant defense all season long. Ask Joe Flacco. Him and his 0-2 record against the Steelers know what's up.
Hines Ward, once out of the league, will be breaking little babies' jaws in an attempt to regain his past glory. Also, once out of the league, Ben Roethlisberger will die. Early. Somehow.
This is why god invented tivo.
Maybe the Obama administration is taking a stand against everything evil in the world since everyone knows that both teams are entirely peopled with deviants, miscreants, and sexual predators.
Go Lions! Er... Nevermind. :(
