The Internets: Going for a ride in the Whaaaambulance

Not that we care one way or the other about the Pro Bowl, which is about as exciting as swimming nude in a vat of lukewarm chicken pot pie filling, but this news of Tom Brady and Randy Moss pulling out of the game is irking us more than we thought it would. Maybe Brady we understand a little more, if he really is dinged up, but Moss? C’mon. They ought to just shut this game down or turn it into something cool like a televised decathlon of recreational sports for football players. They’d get a free trip to Hawaii still, and we’d get to see Tony Romo vs. LaDanian Tomlinson in ping-pong, or some such thing.
*Miss Fayetteville says rubbin’ is racin’. Only nobody else was racin’. Uh-oh. How can you not read the rest of the story after this intro: A Fayetteville beauty queen is accused of veering through traffic to block another car, then driving recklessly up and down a five-lane road in an apparent attempt to intimidate the other driver. (Thanks to Stu, who found the article originally right here).
*Our elected officials seem to be busy with steroids and Spygate these days. … And, you know, they’re also lambasting the budget. But back to steroids.
*Super Tuesday Mustache Fun! (Thanks Stensation, who might have just given us either the name for our next Fantasy Football Team or punk band, only we replaced “Love” with “Fun”).
*And, finally, in honor of signing day tomorrow (football, soccer, track and field, water polo and field hockey, Jon reminds us), we bring you a rather sad tale of a duping. One way or another, this thing went off the track. And someone is feeling very bad about it.
