Crazy 8

In 1986, Bon Jovi released their "Slippery When Wet" album. The second song from that album was "Livin on a Prayer" which contained the lyrics-

O we're halfway there,
O we're livin on a prayer

It's almost as if the band had a vision about the 2008 Bengalberries. At this point, they stand at 0-8 in a quest for 0-16, halfway there!

Some good things have been happening down at the Bengalberry palace.

First of all, the head drunk, Chris Henry has returned to the fold. This can only help in the 0-16 quest. Reports are that, at times, Mr. Henry sees more than one football due to his inebriation.

Secondly, it seems the Bengalberry quarterback has been removed from contention for the remainder of the season. This is excellent news. Carson Palmer appears to have some circuits firing at times- even enough circuits to pull out a "W" and ruin the season.

Thirdly, the Bengalberries lost to the Texans. This is great news! This was one of the games on the schedule that you looked at and thought, "how are they going to lose that one?" Well, they did it! Fantastic!

Finally, as we look at the second half of the season, the final game seems to present a problem. It is against the KC Chiefs, who are pretty bad. If the Bengalberries enter that game at 0-15, the pressure will be on.

So, from Birthright Mikey's point of view,

We've got to hold on to what we've got
Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we win it or not
We've got public dough, and thats a lot.

Somebody pour Chris Henry a shot

O we're halfway there,
O we're livin on a prayer,
O we don't care
