I know I’m a little behind the times but I was recently turned on to the HBO series, Flight of the Conchords, while on a recent Delta flight.  The show is about two guys from New Zealand who are in America trying to make it big with their band and the comedy ensues.  In reality, I believe the main characters are first and foremost stand up comedians but they specialize in the musical type of comedy.  To my knowledge, they have aired one full season on HBO and they are waiting on the second.  A kind youtube poster has posted the entire first season so go ahead and check it out.  However, I must warn you; this is an HBO show so they are not censored like a network show might be.  For the ones that I have watched, I would rate them a PG-13 but in case there is something I have not seen yet, I thought I needed to warn you.
You can also find just their songs or their standup routines on youtube as well if you don’t want to watch the shows.  Enjoy!

It is difficult to comment on the Raiders because in some ways you can see improvements but then on the other hand the result is the same.  This article from Yahoo sums up the season pretty good from penalties to turnovers, these Raiders are close but are not quite there.  I do believe in Kiffin but I wish I could see what was going on behind the scenes.  I have questions like, how is Russell progressing, why is Rhodes not getting playing time, and when are we going to win an AFC West game?!

Although it appears not to be a season ending injury, Vince had to leave the game yesterday with his quad injury. I wouldn’t say this covers the Madden Jinx yet but let’s keep an eye on this one.
