I’m starting a diet today
[I know, this isn’t about last week… I’m bad] David and I have agreed to begin a diet together today. With me not running, I’ve been finding it hard to maintain good health habits. Sadly, diets are not easy, which is why we’re doing it together; we’ll keep each other straight. Before you get thinking “Oh my god, Mike, you’re already skinny!” know that…

Placeholder for this past week
Last week was one of the most eventful of my life. Good, bad, just okay. I could share in bullet format, but each item really does deserve its own article. Someone remind me if I don’t start getting on it… No other posts until I’m done with last week.

Madden 10: Week 2 v. Rams
I feel a bit stupid for my last game recap in which I called the Giants the defending Super Bowl champs. I don’t know what got into me… Maybe the fact they signed Eli to such a ridiculous amount clouded my mind?
