Good game. Let's hit the showers.

Five guys that the Indians should be considering to take over as manager in 2010.  Three words: Butts in seats.  <paneech>

There may just be a reason why JaMarcus Russell is the worst QB in the NFL this year.  Here’s an “interview” with the Raiders’ ball slinger  passer   thrower.  <stylepoints>

An open letter to New York’s newest asshole, Braylon Edwards.  Personally I think any chance that the Knicks had of picking LeBron up dies when Braylon steps off the plane.  <sportscracklepop>

If you drive your 14-year-old daughter to visit her 18-year-old boyfriend in college, you deserve to get kicked in the stomach.  It probably should have happened 15 years ago, and this wouldn’t be a problem.  But the one person who isn’t allowed to kick you in the stomach?  The 18-year-old jerk off.  <notqualifiedtocomment>

San Francisco has informed the PGA that smoking is not permitted in it’s public parks.  Typically this wouldn’t be an issue, but that’s because typically Michael Jordan isn’t a “special assistant” to the Presidents Cup.  So of course he smoked a cigar during the practice round, and plans to have three-per-round this weekend.  When the rest of the world is told “no smoking,” MJ hears “they limit what you can smoke.”  How about a pole Mike.  <deadspin>

Hockey fight!  With a surgically repaired hand no less.  I don’t get why people hate on hockey.  I’m always entertained, and ultimately that’s all that counts.  <withleather>

The Broncos are the new Bears, and the Bears are the new Broncos.  And not just because they both where navy blue, orange and white.  But because they have each other’s quarterbacks.  This just in, grapes are the new sour.  <predominantlyorange>

KFC and Jollibee mascot have a public dance off in some very not-American nation.  This video lasts about two minutes too long, but would make a great conversation starter at your next lame little party.  <buzzfeed>

All in all I’d say our favorite Detroit sports blogger has taken the crushing collapse of his Tigers pretty well.  Much better than I’d take the same situation should it happen to my team.  But alas, the Expos are taking a short break from baseball.  Here’s commentary on home plate ump Randy Marsh from the game with the Twins.  <detroit4lyfe>

That’s it today.  Send story ideas and link tips to bootleggersports@gmail.com.  Now for a day of playoff games and naps on someone else’s dime.
