if looks could assassinate...
first wife and state senator don’t really cut it for a secretary of state- unless, your political agenda is geared towards firing all chubby, jewish interns. not in an anti-semitic fashion, but rather a “oh my gosh, that intern just hugged my husband way too close and way too long while wearing red lipstick and a beret” sort of way. and if you still don’t believe me, i completely think what mel gibson said was wrong. how’s THAT for being… pro-semitic? whatever.
i mean, she is following in the echoing footsteps of henry kissinger, madeleine albright and colin powell. this is not amateur hour, hil. this is not amateur hour.*
*for you, phil.

afinogenov has now replaced losman as numero uno on my list, “buffalo athletes that i really dislike, but can’t quite commit to hating- yet.”
from 2005-06 (post-lockout), afinogenov had 133 points in 134 games (spanning 2 seasons). now, he’s not even thirty and he has one goal in sixteen games. i would bet that you could plug me at center ice (packed in bubble wrap) and, relying on little more than murphy’s law and general physics, i would put up better numbers than that. it doesn’t look like his number’s getting hung from the rafters anytime soon, and he’s spent about eleven years with the sabres. bummer, man.
either mrs. afinogenov stopped her wifely, pre-game duties, or maxim needs to ask robitaille how to get into the real estate industry.
however, i will say that he is a phenomenal skater- but so is brian boitano.

madden 09 jinxed us. duh.
my mom just texted me that the sabres won. she’s hasn’t entirely grasped T9 yet, but i understood the general idea.
it’s no coincidence that i’ve failed to post buffalo sports awesomeness for the past three weeks. i’ve ignored it. with almost every game we’ve lost, i would stop watching with about 30 seconds left. then, i would curl up in a ball on the floor and rock back and forth pretending that it didn’t happen.
anyways, since i’m a girl and everyone will benefit from my knowledge of sports, here goes nothing:
the bills- i want jason peters shot or ”removed” by whatever method football players are choosing to kill people this season. i’m not picky. also, i want $100M spent on an offensive line- not wasted. and since the money was “spent”- Turk? Kugler? Hackett?- are you out there? can you chisel that fleshy mass into a real, live offensive line?- like the one’s on TV? it’s been three games in a row of me shattering my remote against the wall and it’s because of you and your big-boned gents.
the sabres- i want to see the team show up for an entire season, not just every other game. good lord. i have HDtv. give me something to watch on it. and lindy- you see that guy with the goofy smile that signed in july?- the one with gear similar to miller? um… use him? i mean, unless he’s losman on ice, things might improve. not that miller is bad- i mean, when you talk about excellent goalies, hasek and brodeur top my list. miller, in my book, is good. he makes amazing saves, but he’s not consistent enough to rate any higher. maybe he’s overworked. i don’t know.

kenmore east is one of three WNY high school soccer teams that are going to the state tournament this weekend.
i care not only because i graduated from there four years ago, but because my little brother (baby ‘zoner, if you will) scored the winning goal in the regional championship match against honeoye falls-lima. sick header off a picture perfect corner kick- no big deal (it was casey sheehan’s corner– remember that name). here’s the clip; his is the second goal shown on the footage: ken east vs. hf-l (11.08.2008)
of course, the buffalo news hasn’t covered soccer in the area nearly as much as it should (mind you, clarence-ranked 33 in the nation, 6 in the state- and east aurora are 22-0; kenmore east was not even ranked among large schools at the beginning of this season). and what the buffalo news managed to cover, they screwed up. ugh. but at least williamsville east and their women’s tennis team has gotten covered. i don’t know what i would do without those updates.
whereas our area used to get dominated by rochester’s high school teams, buffalo has an excellent chance of seeing what one of those championship rings really look like up-close.
anywho, here’s the full story. my bro has a couple of nice quotes. you should take a look: regional championship coverage (11.09.2008)

you say, “2nd base with a mascot,” i say, “hand check.”

i was searching for a computer support number last week and the business-search engine i was using informed me that the most popular searches included two words amurrricah could use a break from: “joe” and “plummer.”
now, please understand one thing: that is not how you spell what i imagine was meant to “plumber.”
for the love of michael phelps, america.
first you are searching for a man who is from toledo, a gentle population that cheers for the mud hens and believes that toledo is the TRUE glass capital of the world*; i’m trying to say, his immediate client pool was not the majority of those searching for him. second, you reporters, writers, bored and meddling housewives, and bloggers all spelled a simple word wrong, en masse. i am absolutely making an example out of you.
this is not a minute (MY-NEWT, not MIN-IT) spelling error or a few hundred people glancing a rogue (like ROAD, but replace the D with a G) key while quickly typing in a search. this is a population of america that is probably voting on account of which candidate (CAN/DE/DAYT) has the most handouts and socialist rhetoric (say this one like the H isn’t even there, pretend the C is a K). so, in the words of the sexiest president in american history, ask not what your country can do for you and pick up a friggin (GG is pronounced as a hard G, like in GRIP or GIFT) book- or something to that effect (do not confuse this word with it’s homonym, “affect”- it does not make sense in this phrase).
you know it’s shameful when your fellow americans start to see why the rest of the world thinks we are dumb and lazy. stop embarrassing (don’t ever spell this with one R) us.
whether you didn’t know better or you thought that’s how a plumber would list his business (misspelled, similar to a five year old writing the E’s backwards on their lemonade stand), i am booing you. boo radley, amurricah. boooo radley.
*that’s for you, mikey.
