From

to


First off, welcome to the all new "It's Always Sunny in the Office". The name change certainly came as a surprise to some, OK all the contributors, but it's a welcomed changed none the less. Don't worry, I talked to Andrew, and he is totally cool with everything. "But does the name change mean you guys jumped the shark?" Well loser, that's a stupid cliche, and it doesn't mean anything, so shut up. We all know that the Office spiraling towards a series finale -- hopefully NBC is thinking twice about subjecting us to a spin-off show in which Jim makes "that face" in to the camera and Pam tries to find a personality. OITO has seen an opportunity to "still murk the competition", and we're going to run with it. You guys are reading tomfoolery at its best.

As for the page layout, we'll just say it's a work in progress...



Let's make fun of stuff...

Hey, there's big things going on from our friends from the Midwest! Of course I'm talking about college athletics because let's be honest, not much else going on. The Big Ten is gearing up for some fierce competition in 2011-12. With the likes of Nebraska joining, who wouldn't get excited? Well, Big Ten officials couldn't hide their boners any longer and on Monday, they announced the new Divisions and their respective schools. The Legends Division will house Iowa, Michigan, Michigan St., Minnesota, Nebraska, and Northwestern. The Leaders Division is loaded with Illinois, Ohio St., Indiana, Penn State, Purdue, and Wisconsin. These name are super fitting because hell, every time I think of the word legend, I think of guys like Ricky Stanzi (Iowa QB), Denard Robinson (Mich QB) and Bo Pelini. As for the word leader, well there's never been a better on/off the field leader than Minnesota RB DeLeon Eskridge. Should be a fun season.

Last night, Cliff Lee dooped the Yankees ala Greg Maddux styley. He turned down 6/7 years and 150+ mill with New York for Philly and 5 year/120 mill (w/ an incentive based option for a 6th year). Basically the money would be about the same, so he's not really taking a pay cut. Now the Phillies have a pitching rotation that looks like an All Star ballot, but take heart babies! Let's be honest, there's one great pitcher on that Phillies staff -- Roy Halladay and he's 33. Cliff Lee is very good with a lead, but throws 90 at best and cannot make good pitches in a hitter's count (See World Series v the Giants). Plus, he's getting his first big contract at age 32. Our Braves may not be in as bad a shape as it seems. They're continuing the trend of getting younger in key positions, and they are completely stock piled with good pitching. The Phillies continue to get older. Cowherd and his wacky logic proposed a different take on why Lee chose the Phillies over the Yankees: You can get the "New York experience" while living somewhere else...someone in Boise Idaho can receive the New York Times at their door step! Not to mention, you can get a pretty solid bagel anywhere. Cowherd, you're officially an idiot.

They say that nobody remembers who finished 2nd place, but I do. Thanks SCPS for making my mid-day, Saturday!


I think Muschamp to UF hire sets them back 2-3 years. Coming off of a year where Georgia actually had a shot at beating the Gators, I expect Georgia to be favored next year. Shane's right when he said "Leach not going to UF makes this an OK hire." It may or may not turn out to be the right hire, who cares? Florida will still lose 4 games next year -- one being to UGA. Georgia's physicality > UF's.

If Georgia does win next year, you would really have to applaud their sticktoitiveness.

I started reading that, and I really dug it. Then you started talking about sports. I'm going to share with you my thoughts on our blog's coverage of sports: don't need it much. I have ESPN.

Don't be such a sour puss.

Yea, Joey! Stick to things that are completely irrelevant, like, say, what you had for breakfast and its total cost.
