The List

This week, the Schloss-Blog is focused on little things we hate.

People who don't signal when they change lanes (rampant in Arizona, especially people pushing carts in grocery store aisles).

People who drive real slow in front of you and then speed up and run a red light (that you miss - rampant in Arizona).

Announcers and play-by-play television analysts who don't point out obvious penalties that you and your mother both saw, and your mother has never been to a football game.

People who roll through stop signs (especially rampant in Arizona, where red lights and stop signs are considered "optional").

People in grocery stores who pause in an aisle and leave their carts in the middle, without enough room to get by on either side, and make believe they don't see you coming while they stare blindly at a bunch of soup cans, trying decide which one not to buy.

The people in the commercial who, driving around on vacation trying to entertain their bored pre-adolescent daughter, suddenly stop at a completely empty ocean beach and all jump in, to their little girl's delight, with no lifeguards or even any other people within miles. Sounds real safe.

Erin Andrews making believe she's a reporter.

The people who the producers of "Dancing With the Stars" consider to be stars.

People who don't think that "Hey Jude," "Layla," "One," "Stairway to Heaven" and "God Only Knows" were the five greatest rock 'n' roll songs of the previous century.

People who didn't believe in the University of Illinois Fighting Illini (Illinois 24, Wisconsin 23 - the Badgers were 31-and-a-half-point favorites).

People who can't believe that Matt Millen (Big 10 Network) and Mark Sanchez (ESPN) are paid football analysts. Or, maybe the people who can believe it.

People who didn't believe Joe Namath and the Jets could beat the Colts ("I guarantee it").

People who don't believe everything I say (my mother just rolled over).

People who don't read this blog (I don't - I just write it, is all).

Coaches who waste timeouts they wish they had later when they needed them to stop the clock and get the ball back.

People who don't believe in upsets and underdogs (they are the spice of sports).

People who don't watch Sports Center with Scott Van Pelt (so different from all their other Sports Center telecasts - worth it for the hysterical Bad Beats segment alone).

People who don't listen to my radio show (you never know when you're going to get a shout-out on the Howard Hours on Radio Free Phoenix).

So listen in tonight (and sitting in for Joe Catanzaro 6-10 a.m. today, Arizona time), and goodnight, Mrs. Calabash.
