I am feeling overwhelmed on my friends page about the new baseball season (something I could really care less about) so I figured a basketball post would be worthwhile. Specifically, a top 10 of the worst of the “jail blazer” era.

Now in case you’re not familiar, there was about an eight year stretch where my NBA team, the Portland Trail Blazers, were basically a bunch of criminals playing together. You worried if any of them were violating their probation by hanging out with other criminals. It was an embarrassment.

Recently, the Blazers have cleaned up their act (which is great) but I was reminded of this past era when I was listening to the radio on the way home from

work yesterday (1080 the fan). They put together a top five of the worst Jail Blazers. I am going to put together a top ten list of the worst Jail Blazers and why.

I can’t find a better comparison picture but every time I see Spitzer on TV, I see George McFly.

I am watching the Tonight Show and Bill Maher is on and he is being surprisingly less prickish than usual. The funny thing is that like three people so far have interrupted with some sort of stupid chant from the crowd. I heard something about impeachment. And Maher and Leno were just making fun of them and then it happened right after that and right before commercial break, it happened again.

Couldn’t happen to a better guy. I laughed.

Here’s a joke that would have been funny 15 years ago and I am still going to say it:

“If you look at my cabinet, I had more women in my cabinet and on my staff in key positions, including chief of staff, than any other governor probably in Arkansas history,” Mike Huckabee today.

I think another Arkansas governor would have something to say about that:

There’s a good joke to be made about missionary here.

Ron Paul sounds almost exactly like Jim Mora:

Anybody else see (hear) it?
