BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

Monday Morning Zingers

Looks like the Reds have righted their ship and are now in fourth place in the English Premier League. The top four positions guarantee them a slot in Champions League competition next season. But all is not over yet. Still a long ways to go and if they're lucky (and Manchester United takes a spill), they can catch up. Dirk Kuyt scored the only goal, his 50th for the Reds off a header, to give LFC the full three points.

So is Wladimir going to save the Cheerleader?

WBO, IBO, & IBF Heavyweight Champion Wladimir Klitschko and Heroes' Cheerleader Hayden Panetierre -- a couple! Hayden's gonna need more than high heels here.

He's like 6'6" and she's 5'1".

He's 33 and she's 20.

Aww what the hell. This is leading to nothing. Just thought it was amusing but who can figure out love?

It's an unlikely pairing similar to Cyndi Lauper and pro wrestling Captain Lou Albano who incidentally had nothing going on between them except that they were frenemies.
