I’m no football expert; is Leodis McKelvin?

I saw the last quarter of the Pats Bills game and couldn’t believe my eyes:

With a 5 point lead and possession and 2:10 on the clock even I know to take the knee in the end zone and make the pats use the time outs and stop the team defensively, particularly when my quarterback has just driven the length of the field eating up 5 min.

Instead the pats got the ball and drove for the winning touchdown. And commented thusly:

“I chose to bring it out because that’s me,” McKelvin said in a sombre locker-room. “If I had that choice, probably 100 times, I’d do it again. Next time I get the opportunity, I’ve just got to do my job and make sure I hold onto the ball.”

Then again he also said this elsewhere:

“When I caught the ball, I didn’t know if I had two feet inbounds or if my momentum took me into the end zone. If I downed it, it may have been a safety. So I decided to bring it out.”

I wonder which one he said first?

Speaking of odd stats…

…you might recall how after Glenn Reynolds liked to the book: Lube Jobs: A Woman’s Guide to Great Maintenance Sex. I posted on how suddenly 27% of the people who went to that page were buying Culture of Corruption and said:

So two hours after Glenn links to a book on sex suddenly 27% of the people who go to that page are buying culture of corruption.

I wonder how many people who would normally go to that page would see a link to Michelle’s book?

It will be interesting to check this page out in a day or so to see what happens.

That was back on Sept 9th. One week later I checked again, it is only down to 25%.

Even Amazon can not resist the power of the instalance.

Well if I was a dishonest man I’d look at my blog stats for the day and conclude that the phrase Hannah Giles bikini photos had caused me to have more hits than any time this month.

However looking at the raw numbers I see that only 4% of my traffic today came from searches involving Hannah Giles bikini photos or other Hannah Giles searches.

However a full 40% is coming from Michelle Malkin’s blog.

So it looks like Michelle Malkin’s writing is 10 times more popular than Bikini photos of Hannah Giles.

And Mika I’m sorry to say that the phrase: Mika Brzezinski bikini photos has drawn exactly as many hits as Robert Stacy McCain Bikini photos, or Charles Johnson Bikini photos or even Rush Limbaugh Bikini photos, nearly one. Zip zero nada, not even the odd Camel Spotter.

Let me say what I’ve said before, Mika is a very handsome woman and a lot more fair as a reporter than many others on the left as she doesn’t pretend that she is not. I’d say her husband is almost as lucky as me.

Ok I admit it I’ve had much too much fun with all this Bikini photo nonsense but sometimes in life you just have to have fun. For in the words of Detective Billy Shipton at 3:50 below

Because life is short and you are hot

Is that not just the greatest pickup line you’ve ever heard?

Oh and if you haven’t ever watched the Episode Blink, you need to, it’s awesome plus and the writer Stephen Mofatt will be head writer for the series next year when the 11th doctor takes over.

Update: Today’s hit totals are now 5 times my daily avg for this month and exceed the average of my busiest month by 30% as of 1:15 p.m. It is only 8% of my busiest day ever but then again that was my only instalance. Between the time I started writing this post and this update my total hits today are up another 40%.

Update 2: Speaking of blogwhoring.

Update 3: Welcome readers of Robert Stacy. He is is right in one respect, the whole Bikini picture meme has given my already odd sense of humor a very silly twist today, I’ve been laughing all day and I just can’t help it. By tomorrow I’m sure I’ll be over it but I just I’ve still got a mad silly grin and I just can’t wipe it off. I’m like Richard Dawson and September.

He’s wrong about the diss part but I think it’s a classic bit of parody to own the terms “Robert Stacy McCain Bikini Pictures” and “Charles Johnson Bikini pictures” if the google bomb ever comes I’m setup perfectly. Of course if the google bomb ever comes then the world is in a lot more trouble than I thought.

That and $2 will get me kicked out of any reputable diner. I needed a good laugh this week and this has really been cathartic. plus the hits being up 1500% from yesterday doesn’t hurt either.

If you are interested in other things besides stats and Bikini pictures might I suggest my review of two books to come out next month Newt Gingrich’s upcoming novel To Try Men’s Souls or That first season about Lombardi and the Packers, I even can tell you something the president did right, about girls who will fall for anything to be famous, the crazy 1% theory of mass protest, why 9/11 means victory for the US in an important respect, Why friends of abortion (unlike me) are worrying for nothing and btw did you miss Israel? Arab Rockets didn’t.

Update 4: It’s a RushLance! That explains a lot. I’m now 8th in growing blogs on WordPress today.

…because at the sight of the troops the protesters would start cheering applauding, patting them on the back and buying them drinks and ask how they can help their families when deployed.

Now this is of course in jest, the idea of this president even thinking of sending the troops to suppress protest would be just as unlikely as people clicking to see Bikini photos of Robert Stacy McCain, or Bikini photos of Charles Johnson.

Now if they were Hannah Giles bikini photos , or Mika Brzezinski bikini photos that would be another story.

But you never know; hell I’ll bet there are people searching for Rush Limbaugh Bikini photos too. I think I would not want to meet them but they’re out there…
