Yesterday was Survival Sunday in the English Premier League and Fox was broadcasting every match live on some network or another they own. I was pissed about the soccer but it saved us from two hours of stupid Pinks reruns or Barrett-Jackman auctions.

By the way Chavez is a 24 carat buttnugget who deserves all the grief he gets. He wants to be the 21st century version of Castro and has done everything he can to abolish the presidential term limits in the Venezualan Constitution so he can stay in power. They still should have shown the national anthem though. It's not like he was driving the car.

I can't believe the FIA is competent enough to have actually discovered a rules package that has leveled the field but they have lucked into an incredibly compelling season so far. No team has won more than once and it's not just the fat cats at McLaren, Ferrari, and Red Bull that are winning. Normally by this point in the season you can narrow the championship contenders down to three or four drivers and two or three teams. Right now you can't even make a guess as to who is a contender and who isn't. None of the teams have been consistent but almost all of them have had at least one week where they either won or were a serious contender to win a race.
