My Super Bowl prediction: The halftime show will stink, like always. Why don't they forget about it and give everyone time to run back to the kitchen?

Sometimes I have weird dreams. One of the most recent: A guest in my house was drinking all my good single-malt scotch whisky, right out of the bottles! If I were awake, that would get you the highland fling, laddie.

Speaking of weird, it's been reported that Gov. Easley was badmouthing Mike Nifong during a talk at New York University's law school Jan. 22. Easley, who originally appointed Nifong as Durham DA, never spoke out about mishandled Duke lacrosse case here in North Carolina -- giving the impression that he just didn't care about the damage to the state's image. What he said in New York -- that Nifong was a lousy appointment -- should have been said here before the November election.

One more comment about the Super Bowl: I wish they were playing it in Chicago, where it's 4 degrees (wind chill -15) right now. Maybe that would shorten the halftime show.

Doug,

Switch to boxers and start drinking the single-malt right outta the bottle. Man you need to loosen up!

One senses a little backlash here.

Doug, you know you had all the early Prince albums.

Dude, you don't have to be afraid to admit it.

Doug said:

Yeah, and I should drink Guinness out of the can.

I'll admit Prince is better than Rex Grossman.

Typical fairweather fan comment and besides Doug what do you against a nice little Jew QB. I thought you were a conservative and Prince was the enemy of western civilzation. Go Bears and screw your cheap scotch Doug..

A former historial Bear with deep Bear roots. I hope Sid Luckman Ghost haunts you in your dreams and steals your scotch and your Prince 8 tracks.

Connie, you must have lost a bundle on the Bears to be so grouchy.

I blame it on Tony God! It appears the Bears God is a atheist in drag. I hate it when wars and Gladitor fights get their Gods involved in the odds at Vegas.

It always the unknown God that screws up the heathen and the bookies?

Doug, I doubt if Guiness will help in the denial of your sordid past.

Doug said:

Indeed, a few pints of Guinness WILL cover up for a sordid past. It works for all of Ireland.

Skeet Club Savage said:

On second thought, you are right.
