Question and Answer Session

"Well if you're wondering
Where I've been all evening
If you think that I've drifted off
Without leavin' here
I've finally found the answers
Don't worry, I'm not lost"
In the Moment, Sister Hazel

The new album is outstanding, by the way. This song is the real laid-back acoustic one and the "Drew song" on the album (think "Cerilene" or "Strange Cup of Tea"), and I'm a big fan, for sure. The relevance is this: I've got some questions and I need some answers....
Question No. 1 - Is it ever okay to use the word "uncanny" except in conjunction with the word "resemblance?" I used the two together yesterday and wondered that very thought. My buddy Joel had a wig and a Red Sox jersey on and bore an uncanny resemblance to Johnny Damon. I don't know that I've ever used it outside of those terms, but that doesn't mean it's exclusive.
Question No. 2 (somewhat rhetorical) - Does anyone outside of Boston and St. Louis care about this World Series? I love baseball and work for the network that is carrying the games, and I probably won't watch more than one or two of them. It didn't really matter who won the Yankees/Red Sox series, but having no Roger Clemens means no big stories for this matchup. Does anyone even remember the 1967 series? Obviously I don't. I'll be watching SC and/or Miami and/or Oklahoma before I watch Woody Williams v. Tim Wakefield. I've just gotten through a month where I can't say enough about how amazing baseball is, but I think I'm done for now. Get ready for 2005 and the Padres winning the NL West.
Question No. 3 - Is it possible to draft a better pair of shooting guards in fantasy basketball than Kobe Bean Bryant and Ray Allen? My Fox firewall would not permit my participation in my draft this morning, so I had to await its completion and see what the draw would give me. Picks one and two yielded these two gems. I have no size, but the backcourt is quite solid: Andre Miller, Kobe, Jesus Shuttlesworth and Jason Terry--not bad. Ron Artest, Al Harrington, Grant Hill and Josh Howard are all solid swingmen, but my big guys leave a little to be desired. Tyson Chandler, Eddy Curry, Erick Dampier. Brutal. Allan Houston and Chucky Atkins are my other bench guys, so I'm thinking I need to trade from the backcourt and add a big boy.
Question No. 4 - Am I a tool for pontificating on the relative strengths and weaknesses of my fantasy basketball roster within hours of its formation?
Question No. 5 - Am I a tool for being stoked beyond belief that Tim McGraw was on the show today? It took me a little while to come around on him, but come on now, Faith Hill? If he's never done anything else, marrying her is deserving of enormous respect. But he's also made some pretty darn good music over the years ("Sing Me Home" and "She's My Kind of Rain" are the laid-back favorites), and the hits keep coming. Going to see him in "Friday Night Lights" tonight, and I here he's quite good.
Question No. 6 - Is the Side-Dimes-Dellers-Juice e-mail thread on baseball history the most intelligent discourse ever created on the internet? I believe this question is also rhetorical and the answer, of course, is yes.
Gotta go finish some things at work and then head down to the theaters for the aforementioned Texas high school football film. Looking forward to it just slightly more than lunch at Royal Oaks Manor tomorrow. Peace.
