Your facebook page, television and the internets are filled with the footage of the Russian meteor.

A meteorite contrail is seen while fragments of the meteor fall in the Chelyabinsk regionof Russia

Former (maybe?) Baseball player, MMA fighter, Apprentice contestant and not-crazy-at-all Jose Canseco brings the truth on his twitter page today.

No way was that a meteor in russia today

north korea do the math

long range test deal with russia operation meteor

we have lots of enemies dont understimate them

Okay, Canseco was the first (or at least the most prominent) person to blow the whistle on steroids on baseball  (if you're not a sports fan, as odd as it sounds, Canseco really is the man who started the ball rolling and is largely responsible for what eventually went down in the sports world)

So......don't discount him yet.

I haven't posted about Fantasy Football yet.  What's up with that?

Oh yeah, I am terrible.

Still, here goes.

The Saluki Dawgs (2-1) -I drafted late, and so went with a total offbeat strategy.  I would draft the two top receivers in the game (Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald) and then draft every random running back I could find.  Results have not been convincing either way, though Calvin Johnson is surely as good as anybody in the fantasy game.  Also, because of injuries, i had to start a guy named Colby Fleener last week.

The Iowa Caucuses (1-2)  Interestingly, ESPN gave my draft class an A+, which helps feed my ego as that I am as good at that this "sport" as anyone.  That said, my #1 pick was Chris Johnson and my team is gawdawful squeaking out one pitiful 65-57 win last week.  Still, I feel I've picked up two strong free agents (Andre Brown and Danny Amendola) and never consider myself counted out.  That said, I think I might actually bench Chris Johnson this week, which will probably bite me, but I can't see playing him.

Your reward for reading my Fantasy post is from Bill Simmons (and you should probably know QB Brandon Weeden made an epically terrible debut in Week 1)

And now, for your reading pleasure, a list of performances that are better than Brandon Weeden's QB rating from Sunday (5.1 out of 158.3, 3.2%)

• Caddyshack II's Rotten Tomatoes rating (8 out of 100)
• Michael Jordan's 1994 Batting Average with the Birmingham Barons (.202)
• Eli Manning's "Man Coverage" rating in Madden 13 (8 out of 99)
• Number of bullets the cow from Me, Myself and Irene survived (9)
• Number of kayaking medals Hungary won in the 2012 Summer Olympics (6)
Master P's Zombie Shuffle score on Dancing With The Stars (8 out of 30)
• Number of disambiguation entries in Wikipedia for the word "panini" (7)
• Shaq's career 3-point percentage (1 of 22, 4.5%)
• Number of days David Arquette was the WCW World Heavyweight Champion (12)
• Nick Swisher's Swinging Strike Percentage … as a Pitcher (8%)
• And finally, Colt McCoy's worst-ever QB Rating (27.0)
