Hump Day Potpourri, Spicy Edition: JoePa Batty, Manager Swap, Favr-e-licious

Do You Have ANY Idea Who You're F-in With?

Happy Hump Day, y'all. Not much real news going on in the sports world these days aside from the incessant Torre soap opera here in New York. In other news, what does a fan of the Mets and Jets do about this time of year? Hmmm...I heard there's this game they place on ice with sticks and a puck? I've read about it but I can't find it anywhere on TV. Maybe I'll look around and see what it's like to watch that sport. Apparently they play a lot of the games on a network called Versus? We'll have to look into it.

Regardless, it's a pretty depressing fall sports prospect for the Mets-Jets-Knicks fan. Particularly with this guy doing his best impression of this guy (with this sex cannon guy) on the whole "Chad is our starting quarterback, Chad is our starting quarterback...I am a robot...I will try to outcoach anyone with below average talent...Chad is our starting quarterback..."

So what else is going on out there of interest...here's our best take at an answer.

The nationwide bookseller is gearing up for a Harry Potter-like swarm after news broke of Owen Pochman's debut "Just a Kicker." Maybe you should change the title to "Just an 8-17 Lifetime NFL Kicker Who Still Managed to Bag a Playmate." Has a slightly more interesting ring to it. (The Big Lead)
