The Stupor Bowl
Ouch. My head hurts as much as Big Ben Roethlisberger (pictured above) after getting sacked. Er, I mean drunk. Or drunk then sacked.
Regardless, the combination of the corpse of Dio and a football theme is causing my brain to pound.
Everyone knows the time to run a football strip is in the fall, not when there are approximately two days left in the football season (unless you count the Pro Bowl, which I certainly don't). I mean, sure, the Super Bowl is this Sunday so some could argue the strip is timely. But, come on. Football = Fall is a comic strip rule. The falling leaves, the crisp air, Charlie Brown, Lucy.
So what, you may wonder, is an appropriate topic or theme to introduce in late winter? Why, it's the perfect time to sully the Democrats, of course! Duh.
***************
Anyway, Steelers by...let's say...10. MVP...let's say...Antwaan Randle-El. Dio's next appearance...let's say...June '06. Fly to Vegas, check into a hotel, walk over to the Sports Book, and make it so.

I wonder how Lucy must feel by Dio stealing her bit. "My favorite aggie!" (Hopefully CJo gets that)

Charles Schultz' estate ought to sue the bastard for stealing this 'Peanuts' bit.
Anyway, Antwaan Randle-El for MVP. Saw him play back when he was a Thornton High School He was a man among boys back then. Go Steelers!
