THE TWO BIG "B's"

I spent the last few days trying to figure out how in the world does the IOC, the International Olympic Committee pick cities for the future. Sometimes I believe they write down on slips of paper all of the upcoming "hot spots" in the world, shake them up in a leprechauns hat and then pull out the winner. CHINA, you've got to be kidding, CHINA. They need lots of work on their human relations and on their air quality. Already the talk of "B" Boycott is a whirlwind through Europe with almost daily disclosures that various heads-of-state will boycott...but boycott only the opening ceremonies. Which means they will miss a great photo opportunity. G.W,Bush is still going, He wants to have "Up close and personal...talks" with China's President Hu Jintao. Bush says he's going to ask about the factory workers, in China, who have been recently fired. The interpreters should have a field day with that one. The 1980 boycott by the American Team per Jimmy Carter only hurt the athletes of the American Team, no one else.

But there is another "B" problem in New England of all places. The 2008 Patriot football season is in PERIL, according to six bloggers plus a newspaper and god knows how many radio talk shows. The reason, All-World Quarterback Tom "B" BRADY, is missing the Voluntary workouts to vacation in Europe. Brady is the captain of the team, the leader in the clubhouse, the main man, the key to the Patriot machine, and he is missing the action. However, it was revealed that Tom is traveling through Europe on the arm of the very beautiful, model, Gisele Bundchen. "WAY TO GO TOM."
