Carlito’s Link Dump
There’s a lot of stuff I don’t get the opportunity to blog these days, so in honor of our guy Carlito finally opening up his account at Old Trafford last Sunday… wait, why am I celebrating the fact that Manchester United scored?
Never mind. Here are some goodies from around the web that you might have missed in the last week or so:

- Football is better for you than jogging. So is dancing, which I do because I suck at football. (Science Blog)
Finally, my favorite quote of the week comes from The SSW, Robert Weintraub’s new weekly feature for Deadspin, which attempts to glean what the army of ex-jocks that make up the NFL punditry is thinking every week.
Who is laughing harder, Marty Schottenheimer or Jose Mourinho?
I’m expecting the LaDainian Tomlinson-Didier Drogba pity party to commence any day now.

Mourinho is laughing harder. This is because Mourinho, unlike Marty, is a self-absorbed giant douche.
