And a sports update

Speaking of Big Blue, the New York Football Giants are favored to win today against Oakland, and the Cowboys are picked to lose against the Saints (who will be angry about losing to Gang Green).  If things pan out, the Giants will be a game behind the division leading Cowboys in the loss column (the bye week confuses things a bit) with Dallas due in the Meadowlands in three weeks.

Peripherally speaking, both the Eagles and the Redskins are hopeless.

So all is not lost, friends.  Hope remains.
