There's been a rash of injuries to the male genitalia lately in blog land. (For the rash: antibiotics, baby powder.)Dennis York suffered such a blunt trauma to the land down under he returned to blogging.
Each pass Culpepper completes feels like a midget punching you in the groin (trust me, I know what that is like). Culpepper runs for 20 yards on a quarterback draw, the 34th time they have run that play this game. About this time, I start thinking about places in the house where I might be able to hang a noose.

Meawhile, John McAdams of Marquette finds a lefty with a penchant for hitting below the belt:
Al Franken, facing a self-described “right wing jerk” (doesn’t Franken believe that all conservatives are “right wing jerks”) kicks the man in the groin, breaks a stool over his back, and stands grinning as another liberal (from Wisconsin, supposedly) breaks a bottle over the man’s head.Ann Althouse then wonders aloud if a man is emasculated by owning a minivan, and if a sports car is an attempt to make up for any short comings in the shorts.
If you'll excuse me, I think I'll be careful the next few days. I'm going with the stainless steel.
