--Here's a great look at the Bengals' cursed draft class of 2005, including David Pollack, Odell Thurman, Chris Henry...yeah, this is pretty dead-on.
--Here's a really interesting site called The-Gunner.com, stumbled upon by a reader doing research for a college paper on Bob Prince. What he found really interesting was the "Official Pirates Theme Song" from 1990, entitled We Believe In You. Of course, there's audio and the written lyrics to the song. What do you think, isn't it about time for another official Pirate song? Come on, you know that would be a gold mine of comedy.

Best part of that thing about hockey fans was the link to Snoop talking to one of the Ducks announcers.

Also, in the comments section of the link about the Bengals 2005 draft, some idiot thinks that the punishment on Chris Henry was too harsh.

Gotta love Bengal fans. They went from not-existing, to existing and being over-zealous in the span of like 2 years.

Sadly, as soon as I read about the pirates theme song, it began playing in my mind, word for word...

"in pittsburgh we believe the pirates will come through"
