Memo To FOX Sports
2008-01-03 17:41:00 Re: Coverage of BCS Bowl Games Gentlemen, Being that this is the second year of your contracted coverage of the NCAA Football’s BCS Bowl games, I assumed you would have had enough time to get your act together and have everything under control. After the last three games, it appears that this is not the case. To ... More About: Sports , Memo , Nate , Fox Sports
Sod stands behind his assertion that OK Computer is way better than The Ben
2008-01-02 20:25:00 I know it’s a little late for presents, but what the hell. Since the Sod Nation is 100% dedicated towards all things Radiohead, the least I can do is offer you definitive proof as to why the band owns both you and your family’s sorry asses. So as a favor to me, set aside a ... More About: Computer , Erik
The definitive doofus list of ?07
2008-01-01 20:30:00 The problem with Top Ten lists is that you can’t know for sure how much music the dude (or dudette) offering the list actually listened to for the year. Sometimes this makes no difference. Like when Rolling Stone or Spin writers put together their best-of lists, after having had every CD made sent to them ... More About: List , Doof
Aud lang Sod.
2007-12-31 21:53:00 As 2007 slowly sputters towards an unsatisfying SPLUT sound, it would seem that today would be the last chance to fondly reminisce on the year past. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ve born witness to Kelly, Nate and Chris competing for the Sod Blog Hipster Doofus of the Year Award with their Top 10 music ...
Sod?s Holiday Hangover
2007-12-31 05:19:00 Some of you may have noticed that we here at Sod have been less than frequent in our posting over the past week or two. Truth is, we’re more than a little lethargic due to collectively overdosing on eggnog, christmas cookies, stuffing, candy canes, gingerbread, turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, eggnog-flavored cookies, more stuffing, what may ...

Wide-Eyed
2007-12-27 23:02:00 Mr. Rogers always creeped me out when I was a kid. But I saw this clip awhile back and it made my day. So, on a day when we’re two days removed from what is supposed to be one of the happiest days of the year, when it seems like so much of the world is ... More About: Wide
Recap of the Inagural Sod Bowl
2007-12-27 17:49:00 Some of you may recall that we here at Sod had the great pleasure to host a college football bowl game, a great step forward for our fledgling blog.

Made Up My Mind
2007-12-27 17:11:00 After getting a full night’s sleep to think things over, I’ve decided that it’s best if I go with Chief. Out of the three choices I had to consider yesterday. In the end, I felt it was best to identify myself as a Chief. Partially because I’ve always admired native american culture and people and partially ... More About: Mind , Made
The Day After?
2007-12-27 05:06:00 So, it’s the day after Christmas. Remember when you were a kid in elementary, high school and college and you had that wonderful 2-3 week layoff around the holidays, making this day just another day in a long string of days that you didn’t have to get up before noon? Wasn’t that freakin’ awesome? Somehow, it took ... More About: Nate

Santa?
2007-12-23 01:25:00 All I asked Santa for this year was a pint of tasty IPA and some “metal.” I must say, I got exactly what I wanted. Thanks, Santa. I’ll be back next week. I hope you all have a happy and safe holidays. More About: Nate
Lump of Coal
2007-12-21 23:11:00 Yup, that’s a rapper… Okay, I’ve been bad. Not as bad as some people, of course, but I do admit that I’ve erred during the past year, no matter how minor the misstep. That’s right, I put together a Top Ten list before the end of the actual calendar year and now I’m paying for my indiscretion. ... More About: Coal , Nate , Lump

Merry Christmas?
2007-12-20 19:31:00 In case you hadn’t heard, Rudy Giuliani has a new, heartwarming Christmas Ad. Enjoy… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR1fWZlE7A M Confused? Scared? Suddenly craving a big scoop of strict constructionist judges to go with that fruitcake? You’re not alone.

2007-12-18 23:05:00 The ex-girlfriend and baby’s mama of Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher (who miserably failed us against the Vikings last night), sued former Riverdancer Mikey Flatley for….drumroll…$33 million for sexual harassment and was ordered…drumroll again…to pay $11 million to Flatley for defamation.

How Much Is Too Much?
2007-12-18 17:51:00 I just got done reading an article in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune that at first I agreed with, but by the end, I had completely flipped.

2007-12-17 21:53:00 Two top-ten album lists have posted in these hallowed halls, and it seems the third corner of the trilogy is missing. Maybe you think I’m lazy.

Movie Review - Juno
2007-12-16 20:39:00 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_qX1sx8WR U One of the more true lines in Juno is when she describes how even the jocks at school want a mousey, horn-rimmed glasses-wearing hipster girl, even though they spend so much time making fun of them.
