You are getting a late edition of the Shenanigans for a couple of reasons. 1) I was busy all day at work harnessing the power of technology and; 2) I've felt like puking due to my Cardinals ineptness over the past 10 days, in the midst of a playoff chase mind you. However, due to my lateness I am going to provide everyone with a treat. The treat goes along with our last and best Shenanigan of the day, a tribute to the one and only, Keith Hernandez's mustache. Enjoy the pictures. On to the Shenanigans.
I Sure Wish We Still Had Dan Haren - To go along with the other cheery Cardinals news this week, Mark Mulder will be undergoing an MRI to check his surgically repaired shoulder. This is simply par for the course for the Cardinals. Pussy footing around with the rehab of a player while bracing for the subsequent PR backlash when the fans find out there was something else wrong. This goes along with the Cardinals now being something like 7 games back. I don't even want to go look at the standings to check the actual numbers for fear of cutting myself. When the HGH/Ankiel bomb hit, the Cardinals were a mere 2 games back. The aftermath has not been pretty as the team has imploded. The season is over. Pack your bags for a nice winter vacation boys. Go Brewers!!
OJ Is Up To His Old Tricks Again - Did anyone really expect anything less from OJ? Now, actual audio evidence has popped up.
Good Lordy, It's a Miracle! - Apparently Jon Kitna is a Super Hero or just not susceptible to normal people injuries as he suffered a supposed concussion in the 2nd quarter against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, but later came back in to lead his team to victory. Kitna is calling it a miracle. I'm calling it a mis-diagnosis. You don't get an actual concussion and then lose the symptoms an hour later. Kitna merely got his bell rung and then took some smelling salts to the head and was good as new. It is even more puzzling that Kitna was allowed to go back into the game considering the NFL's ever growing policy with regards to concussions.

The News We've All Been Waiting For - Mike Tirico will take Dan Patrick's slot on ESPN. Who cares. Next Shenanigan please.....
Mustachioed - Keith Hernandez will inevitably die some day, but his mustache will live on in eternity.

great post. on any suspected concussion the nfl has to have its own doctors release a player back onto the field. I figure you hit the nail on the head. Once took a cleat to melon right behind the ear (it actually took a small piece of my ear off) I was knocked stupid for five minutes or so, but not concussed. I figure it was that sort of thing.
Keith Hernadez was great on Seinfeld. His mustache was in rare form that day.
