After today's CSU game, I was heading to grab something to eat, when it dawned on me. Taco Tuesday at Capn Taco! Why does every fast food joint that's good, close by 10:00? It's criminal.

Stuck with the old reliable Steak'N'Shake, but man, you can't get a Quizno's or anything around here. And 10:00 isn't late. Dammit.

On the 7th day of Christmas, there's some folks having a bad time of it. That's "Happy Christmas to You" at the beginning, followed by Matt Dillon, foreshadowing "Crash", escorting Shane to the drunk tank. I love it when Shane and Kirsty share the vocals.

My Dad and I took in the CSU game vs. Chicago State this evening. They stole CSU's colors, initials and basically everyone was confused when the cheerleaders would yell "C-S-U". The popcorn was still shitty, but my beer was cold. Why do the teams I root for suck? Chicago State dressed nine, but played only eight.

This evening, CSU could not shake the Cougars. Each time the Vikings threatened to pull away with a 9 or 10-point lead, the Cougars would stay in it. The Vikings had an 11-point lead with 5:47 left, then we watched Chicago State pour in 14 in a row to take the lead. That was a punch to the gut. The hometown CSU took the other CSU to OT, but lost, 82-77.

They listed attendance at 2034. They lie. A lot. Maybe 900. Tops.
