lisztomania: Five Lists, Vol. 3

Top 5 Thoughts About Week 2 NFL
1. Still no Chad Ocho Cinco jersey. If Chad Ocho Cinco is now his legal name, both the NFL.com and ESPN fantasy haven't made the change yet. This is really crucial because when I'm looking for his profile page, I don't know if I click under "J" for "Johnson", or "O" for "Ocho Cinco", or even "C" for just "Cinco". And is this a Sarah Michelle Gellar-type deal where he wants us to call him by all three names?
2. Aaron Rodgers! Did you see that bomb (60 yards, at least) to Jennings? And you actually pronounce his name the way it is spelt, unlike Favre.
3. To all those fantasy owners who were gloating that they have the first pick in the draft, and they have an automatic playoff berth with Tomlinson: who's laughing now?
4. When a wide receiver does a premature celebration like what DeShawn Jackson did, not only did he infuriate fantasy owners that have him, he also infuriated QB Donovan McNabb's fantasy owners who was stripped a touchdown pass.
5. Ed Hochuli, one of the better and buffer referees in the league, admits his mistake, but what is that really good for? San Diego already officially lost, Denver stole a game. What good is instant reply if a bad ref's decision won't allow it to be used.
