The Daily News1 Ladieeeez and Gents: Introducing Buster Posey: the 2010 National League Rookie of the Year!2 Is there other news?3 Whoops.
4 Sorry, Snooki, but the fact that you have a new boyfriend AND went to Disneyland just doesn’t make the News.
5 Really, I was worried for about four seconds about Buster, but evidently, cooler heads prevailed.
6 Hands down, Rookie of the Year!
7 Did I ever have doubts? Yeah, with the East Coast reporters.
8 But I knew what this guy did all season.
9 So on behalf of the entire Bay Area, I want to give a HUGE shout out to the Giants’ rookie catcher. What a year, what a time, what a guy!
10 History would have judged those who judged, so at least this one is now in the books.
11 Moving on, Part the First: And speaking of sports for a change, was anybody else sort of disgusted with Michael Vick suddenly becoming an American Hero last night?
12 I guess I should have seen it coming, but if Vick weren’t an NFL super star, he would be rotting in a prison somewhere for torturing dogs.
13 Ah, but ain’t that America. If Hitler had lived, but had tremendous NFL skills, everyone would probably have cheered him on as a recovering Jew hater.
14 Only in America, I swear to you.
15 Moving on, Part the Second: So somehow last night I was able not only to watch most of that game, but to gather ideas up for today’s DN.
16 At around 8 p.m. the entire week caught up with me. Or perhaps the senility. Either way, I again became exhausted and sleepy right in the middle of writing the good ol’ DN.
17 I swear to you, there must be something in this bizarre air that just takes the life out of you.
18 I’m quite sure that it isn’t just me.
19 I got to school yesterday and was high energy all day.
20 But at the end of the day, I found myself yawning and craving a nap.
21 I’m rarely a guy to nap in the afternoon, although I do that routinely at around 7 p.m. as a somewhat cure for insomnia.
22 But last night was ridiculous.
23 I felt as though someone had slipped me a Mickey.
24 Dude.
25 Old expression meaning that I felt that someone had drugged my coffee.
26 Ah, whatevz.
27 I found meself asleep at the computer once again.
38 I swear to you, I think that the Giants having won the Series took a HUGE toll on my energy. I put so much into my team that there’s practically nothing left, and this is AFTER a four-day break.
39 Or maybe I just have the Novemz. I feel like I got hit with a gigantic cartoon hammer. It didn’t put me out, but it did flatten me.
40 It is awfully difficult to adjust to the fact that with all these hot, weird days that it is a week away from Thanksgiving.
41 Am I alone here, or is this just all pretty weird?
42 Welp, I’m quite sure that it isn’t me. I’ve done this stuff for years, but for the love of Allah.
43 I feel like a walking corpse the past few days.
44 Ah, I’ll get over it. Have to.
45 But yeesh.
46 I think I’ll hop under the covers now. I’m just wiped out from all of it.
47 Still had a GREAT day, but no energy to share, so sorry!
48 Hope you guys enjoy an awesome Tuesday!
49 I’m out. Congrats, Buster! You earned every bit of it.
50 Peace.
~H~
Late-breaking news: Apple announced at 7 a.m. that the Beatles are now available on iTunes!
Buy stock, and lots of it! Then sell within the next two days.
Or don’t.
