Movin' On Up: SportsFilter is moving this week to new software and a new server. I don't anticipate downtime associated with the transition, but if you can't reach the site, check my weblog and Kirk's site to find out if we've done something that reduces the site to a pile of smoldering rubble.

Any chance of getting SportsFilter on the Sprint network so I can comment on the go?

Dude, everyone knows the Mighty Boone is Pat, not Debbie. See enclosed for more information.

I thought the mighty was Daniel Boone.

Ahh, Boone's Farm ... it tastes the same coming back up.

All this talk of rocking asses is making me uncomfortable, m'kay? Go see Mrs. Garrison about that, m'kay?

If it's all the same, I'd rather drink Thunderbird.

As long as you don't drink Mad Dog, your O.K. in my book.

I remember that interview. MD 20/20 As majestic as the cascading waters of a drain pipe, MD 20/20 is bottled by the 20/20 wine company in Westfield, New York. This is a good place to start for the street wine rookie, but beware; this dog has a bite to back up its bark. MD Stands for Mogen David, and is affectionately called "Mad Dog 20/20". You'll find this beverage as often in a bum's nest as in the rock quarry where the high school kids sneak off to drink. This beverage is likely the most consumed by non-bums, but that doesn't stop any bums from drinking it! Our research indicates that MD 20/20 is the best of the bum wines at making you feel warm inside. Some test subjects report a slight numbing agent in MD 20/20, similar to the banana paste that the dentist puts in your mouth before injecting it with novocain. Anyone that can afford a dentist should steer clear of this disaster. Avaliable in various nauseating tropical flavors that coat your whole system like bathtub scum, but only the full "Red Grape Wine" flavor packs the 18% whallop. Liquor stores are starting to be infiltrated by a 13% variety of MD 20/20 Red Grape. There is also a new "Blue Raspberry" flavor with "BLING BLING". Even the lowest functioning of bums will know not to get swindled out of 5%. Source

Sorry goddam, I wasn't trying to take a cheap shot at you. Or was I? I guess I am just still scarred from getting busted for underage drinking (Mad Dog) with the bum who lived behind the strip mall. He was the only one we could find to buy alchohol for us. Of course we had to buy him a bottle for his troubles.

md 20/20 last time i drank that me and my buddies forgot to put out a fire in my friend's pasture and burned the damn thing down. i'm at my house the next day and my friend calls me, "you better get down here, we got some work to do." we had to replace all the barbed wire around the whole perimeter. one of the ranchhands was poking around in the remains of the fire and pulled out two md 20/20 tops. we threw the bottles into a pond and shot them with a bb gun but put threw the caps in the fire.

So, umm yeah, not to be a party poopie or nothin, but did I miss the thread about the details of the new software? I mean I'm all about wino-pissing on Pat Boone in a frat house, but inquiring geeks wanna know.
