		<description><![CDATA[Uh wow, I haven&#8217;t done one of these in almost 5 months? How did you fill your Sundays all this time? By reading books or watching football? Sounds awful. This week, you&#8217;re treated to a New Zealand TV host having a little too much fun with an Indian name. It&#8217;s awkward for everyone else involved.

<p><a href="http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/17390/210904">Tea &amp; Crackers</a> &#8211; <em>Rolling Stone </em>article about the absurdity of the Tea Party. Not that you weren&#8217;t already aware.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/the-lay-scientist/2010/sep/24/1">This is a news website article about Â a scientific paper</a> &#8211; This is pretty damn old, but I appreciate well-done satire, especially when it comes from somewhere other then The Onion. Some of the comments are amusing as well.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/29/magazine/29language-t.html">Does Your Language Shape How You Think?</a> &#8211; Some languages don&#8217;t have have words for left, right, front, and behind. Yeah, that would definitely affect how one thinks.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,721846,00.html">&#8216;Science as the Enemy&#8217;: The Traveling Salesman of Climate Skepticism</a> &#8211; An old man who sees himself as the last bastion against socialism or communism or something does his best to spread doubt about climate change, pretending there&#8217;s not a 97 percent consensus about the science. Apparently, he&#8217;s succeeding.</p>
<p><a href="http://jonahkeri.com/2010/09/13/pitching-injuries-and-rangers/">A Not-So-Brief History of Pitching Injuries, Starring Nolan Ryan and the Texas Rangers</a> &#8211; The magical solution to fixing arm problems? Long toss. I seriously cannot believe that most teams don&#8217;t have their pitchers throw past 120 feet. I really can&#8217;t. I&#8217;m so shocked that I feel like emailing Jonah Keri about it. EVERYONE does that in high school and college.</p>
<p><a href="http://joeposnanski.blogspot.com/2010/10/halladay-and-lincecum.html">Halladay and Lincecum</a> &#8211; Joe Posnanski being Joe Posnanski. My Halladay post seems so pointless after reading this. Is there any sportswriter that comes close? Please let me know if there is.</p>
