I got a guarantee for you: I better see something called "The Sports Guy Theory" in the next couple of months.

Page 2 never wins anything either, but everybody is sending their congratulations. Life is not fair. I need a hug ... or at least another gratuitous photo of me.
It's been months, fellas!

Don't cry, Murph. Instead, follow me to the Cubs to learn the true meaning of suffering fandom.

While I have a couple of weeks left in office, I'd love to replace that partisan TMQ with someone from my Independent Party. Hold on, I've got Vince McMahon on the other line about the X-treme Politics League.

Subject: You've got my attention Cc: Tex Winter
Rosen dishes about me and all of a sudden I'm Mr. Triple-Double. Got any more to say, Charley? Please?

Dear sirs:
Will you please discontinue running unauthorized photographs of my friend Elin Nordegren in stories about me, or I will be forced to take legal action.

I have not seen my name mocked in many weeks. How do you say, "Just give me the damn ball, Moochie" in Mandarin?

To: Page 2
Subject: Justify this! Cc: Barbara Walters
What do Page 2's TMQ and Justin have in common? They're both too short -- NOT!

Turley mad at Page 2. ... Turley smash Page 2!

When, fool? When you start playing every down like you mean it.

I hate Page 2. Bunch of freaks and geeks and never-played-the-gamers. Has anyone seen my career?

Nice job. When do we eat?

Bobby Valentine

Congrats on the anniversary. I heard there's an opening for Page 2 manager. You've seen what I can do with overpaid head-cases and malcontents.

We talkin' 'bout Page 2, man? Page 2? Not a game ... not a game, but Page 2?

Oh, wait. I thought Page 2 was sending me some kind of note of appreciation. Well, here's my autograph anyway.

I run a fashion, perfume, movie and music empire. And, yet, I remain unsatisfied until Page 2 explains to me why my Michael Pittman fantasy-football pick remains so unproductive.

I give Page 2 a 6.0! But only if you give good marks to the French teams.

Turning 2 is a special time in anyone's life. When I was 2, my father made me hide my driver's license.
