Tom Coughlin

Tom Coughlin, the pinched, thin-lipped, terse New York Giants head football coach recently passed through my transmediums while watching Monday Night Football last week. Though I’ve never met Coach Coughlin, I've taken to inferring certain things about him based on player comments and my observations. The following is a partial list of observations made on that Monday during and immediately after the Giants losing effort against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jack Palance: “St. Peter--I crap bigger than him”

Screen legend Jack Palance may be dead but his comedic timing lives on.
Upon reaching the Pearly Gates, the 6-foot-4 Palance, who passed away in his California home last Friday at the age of 87, motioned toward the 5-foot-6 St. Peter and loudly spoke his now-famous line from the 1992 Academy Awards, leaving the apostle and the throng of Christians waiting to enter Heaven doubled over in laughter.
“We’re thrilled to have Mr. Palance with us,” said Jesus, of the gravely-voiced actor. “He has that certain, how do you say, je ne sais quoi.”
Later, Palance was seen doing one-handed pushups in the garden as a crowd cheered, according to news correspondent Ed Bradley.

Rush Limbaugh accuses MLK of “exaggerating blackness” to forward civil rights agenda.

Responding to the backlash of criticism over comments accusing Michael J. Fox of faking or “purposefully exaggerating” the affects of his Parkinson’s disease to forward the “liberal, leftist agenda” regarding stem-cell research, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh fought back, saying that Fox was merely the latest in a long line of liberal shills exploiting the good will of the American people with their ‘insensitive, immoral politics.”

“All I’m saying is that I’d never seen Martin so animated and preachy,” Limbaugh said, referring to the famous “I Have a Dream” speech the civil rights leader delivered in 1963 at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. He proclaimed King to be “either off his meds or acting” in order to advance his “progressive, open-minded vision of America.”

“Frankly, the American people deserve better,” he said.
