Poor Emily!

A Tee Ball competitor (Emily) gets called out to meet the president but runs away – this was part of a charity tee ball competition that I believe is held at the White House annually.

Maybe kids do know better after all… I don’t think I would have been this bright to run away at such a young age myself.

Poor Emily indeed.

Stevens Athletics Calendar – Now Available

This is completely unofficial so far and is not distributed through Stevens Athletics but from what the publicly available schedules for the teams at the Stevens Athletics web page states, I have created a .ics file that can be easily added to any calendar application (I use Microsoft Outlook) if you want to keep track of the Stevens’ Athletics events. To download the calendar, just simply click here: Stevens Athletics Calendar.ics

Also, watch several Stevens Athletics games that are broadcasted and streamed live on Empire8.tv. I will try to do as many games I possibly can but that might be difficult as I am away from campus for the fall as I complete my co-op semester. I know for sure that I will be doing Men’s Soccer games in the fall and definately the Men’s Lacrosse games and Women’s Basketball games that carry over into the spring semester next year but as for others, I make no guarantees right now.

As for the calendar, so far the only available schedules that I saw were the following:

Men’s Lacrosse
Men’s Soccer
Women’s Basketball
Women’s Tennis

Imagining If Obama Had A McCain Week

Let’s just imagine a moment.

Let’s just imagine that one day during the campaign, Barack Obama suddenly changed the actual facts about a central moment in his life, altering them to simply fit the city he was campaigning in.

And let’s just imagine that another time, Barack Obama was asked to explain one of his Senate votes on a major women’s issue, but sat in silence until finally saying he didn’t remember it. And then laughed that it was “delicate.”

Let’s just imagine, too, that Barack Obama’s top economic advisor had said that there wasn’t really a recession, that it was just a “mental recession,” just “psychological,” that Americans were “whiners.”

Let’s just imagine that Barack Obama had made a joke about killing all Iranians with cigarettes.

And let’s imagine that all of these things happened to Barack Obama — all of them — during the last week alone.

Just imagine.

No, really. Take a moment, I’ll wait. Imagine it.

Mike And Mike Pentathlon: Running The Bases

Not sure how many of you listen to Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN Radio (also simulcasted on ESPN) on weekday mornings but the two hosts who do the show are doing a pentathlon and this is the third leg – running the bases at Yankee Stadium.
