Unsunny Sunday

Vid O' The Day

Say what you will about these guys, but Blink182 had a lot of really catchy shit in the day, and Travis Barker can pound the drums with anyone. Thankfully, Travis is still among us after a horrifying plane crash a few months ago, but Blink disbanded four years ago today.
Here's to ya, Boyz!





Pic O' The Day




Levi Leipheimer leads teammate Lance Armstrong in Saturday's penultimate stage of the Tour of California. The race concludes today in downtown Escondido, about 5 miles from here. I won't be in attendance, because I really don't want to be, plus it's on Versus at 2:00.


Pick O' The Day


Well, So much for "safe" bets, as both the Bruins and Wings got smoked yesterday. Kinda pounds home that the only sure thing is to keep your money in your wallet, the safest bet I know. Screw that, we'll play to win, and hopefully win big every now and then.

We're going off the board here, since I'm getting another late start and already missed my Celtics lock. It's now in the third quarter, and the boys in green are up 15. I don't have any official odds odds on the bike race, so I'm not gonna make a real bet today. But here's my Pick: Lance Armstrong will come from 6th place, 1:45 overall behind front runner Leipheimer, and win this race. The riders start in Rancho Bernardo, and have a brutal trip up Palomar Mountain, a 5,123 foot climb. Remember all those Tours de France Lance won? Remember where he absolutely kicked ass, ALWAYS? That's right, in the Pyrenees. Over in France, they get that crap out of the way fairly early and on the last day they have a little parade over flat land down the Champs D'Elysees. Here in North San Diego By God County , we save the toughest test for last, not like those French pussies. And Mr Armstrong has one helluva track record of passing life's toughest tests.

Streak: Lost 1
Overall: 3-9
