NFL Week Five, Update #4
• This Cowboys/Eagles game isn't going to be over for a while... and it's certainly a contest worth watching, if you decided earlier that you didn't want to take part in the TO nonsense. It's not that bad... and it should be a hell of a finish....

I Don't Think They Mean That He's A South Carolina Fan
It's not exactly high art, but... it might make you chuckle on a lazy Saturday. I think it's the crudely drawn penis that makes it so amusing to me....
