Monday morning news
by chesty
- Reports are that Eddie Kennison has agreed to a 1-day contract with KC so that he can retire as a Chef. We already know how this plays out: hours before the press conference he calls the team to say that he’s quitting football. He’ll be signing a 2-day contract with the Chargers on Wednesday.
- “He’ll never be Jordan. This clearly takes him out of the conversation. He can win as much as he wants to. There would have been something honorable about staying in Cleveland and trying to win it as ‘The Man’ … LeBron, if he would’ve in Cleveland, and if he could’ve got a championship there, it would have been over the top for his legacy, just one in Cleveland.” Charles Barkley, who forced a trade from Philadelphia after 8 years so he could join the Suns (with a far-superior roster than Philly’s). Lebron was in Cleveland for 7 years.
- Can’t wait to get the 3D experience in my home. Right? What? Oops. “Sony recommends consulting a doctor before 3D consumption”… always a good endorsement for fun!
- Need some background music for work this week? NPR is streaming Jesca Hoop’s new album free. Good stuff. Hoop trivia: was a nanny for Tom Waits’ children. If she was a little screwy before that….
Happy week…

Eddie Kennison, wasn’t he the fat guy with the beret that screamed a lot and dated Jim Bakker’s girlfriend?
