Weekend in Review

So as I continue to digest my copious amounts of turkey I will reflect briefly on the weekend.

1.
For all you college kids out there...its gut check time. 2-3 weeks of hell until we are finally released from our institutions of higher education and returned to the rough streets from which we were raised.

2.
Dimitar Berbatov ended his goal drought with an unbelievable 5 against a terrible Blackburn side. Berbatov joins Andy Cole, Alan Shearer, and Jermaine Defoe as the only players to have scored 5 goals in a Premier league game.

3.
Chelsea continue their awful run of form, tying Newcastle United 1-1. Manchester United have taken the premier league lead with 31 points. Seems dumb to have sold Ricardo Carvalho without buying a replacement when the flimsy Paulo Ferreira is starting at Center Back.

3. Barack Obama required 12 stitches from battling terrorists in hand to hand combat in caves on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. Rumor has it, although it has not been confirmed by official sources, that he slayed Osama Bin Laden with a can opener but not before Bin Laden had headbutted him in the dome with hidden razors in his turban. Just kidding, Obama got elbowed during a basketball game. We all wish he could hunt down terrorists.

4.
Benoît Assou-Ekotto has been awarded the premier league award for most swag:least skill ratio. What on earth is he doing starting on a champions league team?

5.
To continue the theme of Tottenham's defense, William Gallas continues to be my least favorite premier league player ever.



Brooklynism of the Weekend:
No sag no swag.
