So both my teams lost this week. It wasn’t even close. This, of course, has the added drama of bringing my record even at .500, with one game left: The Superbowl. But here’s the problem: WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT THE SUPERBOWL!? It’s Seattle and Pittsburgh for christ’s sake!
Whatever. [...]

We’re taking a little break from JeremyAbramson.com™ Presents: The Real World, Ultimate Hump List, just in time for the conference championships. I went 2-2 this past week, picking both NFC games (including a road dog and a home favorite that needed to cover by almost 10 points!), but losing out on both AFC games. [...]

(Editor’s note: At the urging of Jeffy I’ve added pictures, and links to the season for each cast member. So go ahead and check the older post out again, if you didn’t remember who some of those people were. Also, I changed Montana’s ranking, moving her down one spot to 57th, and I [...]

I’ve always had a soft spot for the Real World. I remember watching the first season at my grandparents place in Florida, back in 1992 (Chico cable didn’t unclude MTV until around 3 years later, just in time for the San Fransisco season). I was completely blown away.

…but, you know, I told you so.
Here’s a quote from today’s (January 12th, 2006) “Daily Quickie” on ESPN.com, written by Dan Shanoff:

(Editors note: I am not a USC hater. I actually go to USC. I’m a Trojan. I wasn’t rooting for them — or against them, for that matter — during the Rose Bowl. My “rooting” interest in college football ended when the Miami Hurricanes decided to stay in Miami for [...]
