• MBPB checked in from the Road to Newton to A) remind me to bring the Tandee-Paul Horseradish and B) to hammer away on Felgie for not knowing who Liam Ezekiel of Northeastern was and then for mocking teams in the “Yankee Conference.” MBPB takes his ATLANTIC 10 Football very seriously and expects nothing less of his talk radio morons.
• Not to be name dropping, but Shots has been playing phone tag with Don Majkowski this week and the Packer’s selection of Aaron Rodgers brings to mind the only other QB Green Bay has latched onto in the past 15-20 years. Majkowski enters the team’s Hall of Fame this summer, in case you were wondering, and currently lives in Atlanta. . . You do realize that Rodgers was the rock-solid No. 1 pick not three weeks ago, right? If I’m Green Bay, I’m smiling like a Holt.
• Sean Salisbury’s strong opinions have become stronger and more appreciated in recent years and we give him credit for honing his delivery into sound-byteable context.
• The Packers GM Ted Thompson just said honest-to-gosh. Perfect for a Packer to say that, isn’t it?
• Some horse racing over on the Deuce for those of you needing to be familiar with Derby hopefuls. Neumie? You with us?. . . Another programming note: The NBA Playoffs have begun on ABC and NBC is showing a poker tournament. As usual, CBS is going with golf. And the Double-Deuce in Hull, Channel 22, has the tape of the Hull-Marshfield game and Vermont-bound pitcher, Justin Albert is at the plate. . . he grounds out to third for the second out. . . Holy cow we’re giving high school baseball play-by-play. . . and you’re reading it. . . who’s sicker?
• Mike Vrabel seems to have a hankering for a hunk of Matt Jones, eh?
• Baltimore just drafted Mark Clayton. If Seattle takes Mark Duper, we’re outta here.
• We’re seriously considering trading the Seder plate’s shank bone for the Matzo of Hope and a future piece of The Shirl’s gefilte. The Tuna is supposed to return our call any moment with his thoughts on such a drastic move.
• Our Draft Day religious teaching for this edition of Shots is that the word “Seder” translates into “order” and there is no more orderly event than a Draft. So we got that going for us.
