Jon Marthaler bakes up a batch of delicious links just for you. Other times, you can find him here and here. Also, upon further review: Kraig Applecherry did some more effective online sleuthing and was able to find the Kathy Griffin T-shirt in question from yesterday. That is what you see on the right.

I'm not sure I should say much of anything up top this week. Last week, I wrote about how bad football in the Metrodome had been, and look what happened; now I'm afraid any mini-essay I punch out will again seem to have a nightmarish effect on the world. And we do have a lot of links. So let's just get right to them:
*You might have thought that jokes about Carl Pavano's mustache had been played out. You might have thought that Stu couldn't keep throwing his 105-mph fastball for an entire season. Then you read Stu's latest effort at Twinkie Town, and you realize: you were wrong, so wrong, so unbelievably and totally wrong. (Warning: Salty Stu language).
*I try not to link to Joe Posnanski, because if I linked to everything great he wrote I'd do nothing but type up links to Joe Posnanski posts, but you simply must read his post about Ron Gardenhire.
*Former NFL safety Matt Bowen writes about head injuries in this Chicago Tribune article, in what seems to be the latest in a line of concussion-related tales from former players. This is a problem. Head injuries are a serious problem. And as far as I can tell, there's exactly one solution, and it's something most football fans, including me, will not want to talk about.
*Over at Twins Target, Shawn Berg looks at Twins prospect Estarlin de los Santos, who is mostly notable for being the guy everyone wants dropped from the 40-man roster every time there's a move that needs to be made. Berg, like most fans, wants to know: Who is this international man of mystery?
