Monday Night Football and a Special Delivery

There's two games tonight - Cincinnati-Baltimore and Oakland- San Diego.  Mr. Pig and I have been debating taking Oakland because in Week 17 last year San Diego beat Oakland and knocked them out of the playoffs.  We think Oakland might have marked the calendar on this one, but we're not feeling the revenge vibes.  Public money has shifted the line from Oakland +1 to Oakland -1, and we really hate betting with the public, so we've decided to wait and see.  If money comes in on San Diego then maybe we have a play.  Our first weekend has been successful, so we have no problem sitting this one out.

Jammed in the mailbox today was a package that I had been eagerly awaiting.  In the movie Training Day, as Denzel Washington's character Alonzo is preparing to use force to impose his will he stands collecting his gear and the following conversation takes place:

Alonzo: Gimme the bitch.
Jake: (hands Alonzo a shotgun) 

Alonzo uses this weapon when he is about to get into serious shit.  Today, when I peered into the mailbox I felt like Alonzo because I could see there was a large package containing the bitch.  

The Bitch



Update:
We opted to stay away from Oakland, and they ended up losing.  Good fortune.
