Before we jump into this week’s TMQ, we thought we’d mention D.J. Gallo’s list of the worst college basketball blowouts in Division I history. “Long Island 179, Medgar Evers 62”. It took all of Long Island to defeat one guy? And “Texas 102, San Marcos Baptist 1”. “San Marcos Baptist Academy was — and is — a boarding school for teenagers.”

One of our all time favorite “Bloom County” strips:

Why are we linking to that? This week’s TMQ, after the jump…
The New Year has begun. Our grand vacation from daily cares is over. And once again, we go back to the TMQ well…
We might as well get down to it. This week: the 2011 TMQ All-Unwanted All-Pros. After the jump…
Oh, look! TMQ got us a Christmas present. To quote John Gruber (who is actually quoting Norm MacDonald): “Happy birthday, Jesus. Hope you like crap.”
After the jump, what we’ve been dreading all year…
Apropos to the comment in this week’s TMQ Watch, “Huts Spencer”, one of our awesome readers, sent us a link to local news coverage of this year’s Packers shareholders meeting.
Thank you, sir!
Before we start in on this week’s TMQ, we wanted to throw up a link to this fine article on the University of Alaska Fairbanks rifle team. Shall Not Be Questioned linked this yesterday, but we didn’t get around to reading the article until we started prepping this week’s TMQ Watch. Now that we have, we commend it to your attention.
And now the jump…
“What’s the secret of Packers’ success?”
Here at WCD, we believe the secret of the Packers’ success is…cheese. We are firm believers in the awesome power of cheese. No holiday for us is complete without a port wine cheese ball, one of the traditional foods of our people. It fills us with delight that our neighborhood grocer is selling gourmet cheese balls. A favorite quick and dirty appetizer in the circles we move in is: take a block of cream cheese, pour a nice sauce over it (something like this Raspberry Chipolte Sauce
Where were we? Oh, yeah. The Packers. And this week’s TMQ after the jump…
TMQ is back. So are we. After the jump…
TMQ is taking a bye this week.
If you want to read Easterbrook’s “instead of a TMQ”, in which he surveys 30 years of The Atlantic Monthly cover articles you can read that here. (Really. We are not making this up.)
We are sure that folks have been wondering: exactly how is TMQ going to deal with the 8,000 pound elephant in the room? Well, now’s our chance to find out in this week’s TMQ…
Here is a partial list of movies that Gregg Easterbrook apparently thinks are better than “The Dark Knight”:
After the jump, we’ll dig a little deeper into Easterbrook as film critic in this week’s TMQ…
(more…)
The snark just isn’t flowing today. We might as well just jump right into this week’s TMQ after the jump…
Bear with me, folks. I’m having a pretty crummy day and am going to have a long night.
I haven’t forgotten the TMQ watch for this week, but my target at this point is mid-morning tomorrow.
