Here's a guide to some of the best individual songs that came out last year, neatly organized in list form. I had some witty quips that accompanied each song, but internet explorer shit all over itself and erased everything. Maybe I'll add them again later, oh well. P.S. Go Birds!12.

Andy's mustache is in the mood to wax nostalgic, and can think of no better way than to bust out some top 10 lists. I went to about 30 concerts last year and worked at about another 30, so I have a pretty large selection to choose from. I am not including anything I saw at Bonaroo or moe.down, cause that would just start to confuse me even more. Without further ado, here's my list:10. Sufjan

Former Bird Hollis Thomas was suspended for steriods today, allegedly because of a supplement found in his asthma medication. Thomas was one of my favorite Eagles while he played here and I still don't understand why they gave him away to the Saints for nothing before the draft.Two things I noticed while Thomas was here:1. He broke Derrick Gunn's balls like no other on Post-game Live.2. He has

Anyone who regularly reads andy's mustache (assuming said person actually exists) has noticed a woeful lack of posting on my behalf over the past week. There are two reasons that the stache is slowing down.First, I hate sports.Actually, that is not totally true. I still enjoy watching games, following storylines, and analyzing what's going on in the sports world. What I hate is being a

I don't think I can watch the 2006 Eagles anymore.I am just not going to survive this season. At this rate I am all but guarenteed a massive heart attack by Week 10.The Birds pissed away their third winnable loss of the year yesterday, coming up with some new and interesting ways to lose while also showcasing the same flaws that cost them the Saints and Giants game.The old standbys, clock

Here's a rundown of some of the highlights:Beck (Monday at the Tower)- Puppet Beck and his puppet band alone are worth the price of admission.The Killers (Monday at the Factory)- Anyone taking their sound in a Springsteenesque direction is alright with me.

The above video shows Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen) making a hillarious appearance on Conan O'Brien promoting the new Borat movie.As a huge fan of Da Ali G Show, I always wondered how Cohen tricked these important people to be interviewed by Ali G or Borat. This interesting article, How I was Duped By Ali G, offers some answers.

If you have ever heard of The Hold Steady, you either love 'em or you hate 'em. I fall into the former category. The Hold Steady can really play some serious rock and/or roll.Anyway, their new album, Boys and Girls in America, came out a couple weeks ago and Vagrant is streaming the whole work, which is pretty sweet.

More evidence that rooting for the Sads can actually kill you: a funeral product company is now making coffins featuring MLB logos.The AP article reminds us that sports is a matter of life and death:"Many crazed baseball fans have said they would die for a championship.

Last night in Buffalo, Flyers coach Ken Hitchcock let what little confidence Robert Esche had left be absolutely ravished by the Sabres. Hitch spitefully kept Esche in net for the entire 9-1 feeding frenzy and our hockey correspondent, Habitual Line Crosser, has figured out why.HLC dug up this pregame piece from The Deleware News Journal, where Mr. Esche had some choice words for his coach:Asked

The Philadelphia Sads (as they are known around these parts) made some October news yesterday. Obviously it was not from playing, since the Sads have not been on a baseball diamond in October since 1993.The Sads hired three former big-league managers as their new third base, first base, and bench coaches (Inquirer link). So now the first time Uncle Charlie blows a double-switch he will have not

Canadian soilders fighting in Afghanistan have found themselves in a sticky situation.Apparently, marijuana is causing a major problem for our friends north of the border.

To start, let's make something clear. Pete Townshend is the man. The Who are one of my top-20 bands ever, they have put out some pantheon-level albums, and they really kick ass live.But despite being the man, Pete Townshend is a bit quirky. He's British, he rarely leaves his tour bus, and apparently he really likes water and oil. Here's Townshend's interesting response to the question 'How has

Here's the video for the Rich Franklin-Anderson Silva middleweight title bout from UFC 64. Silva won the belt, pummelling Franklin with vicious knees to the face from the clinch. This video doesn't show it, but after the fight Franklin's broken nose was literally hanging off the side of his face.Something about Franklin just looked weird in this fight.

The Eagles forgot to show up for the first half and ultimately lost to New Orleans yesterday 27-24.

Apparently, Jerry Rice is not very good on the radio.Here's my favorite piece of wisdom (refering to Michael Vick): "If I was his coach I would let Michael be Michael. I would also try to get him to change the way he plays the position. " Rice should really stick with what he knows best, like kicking serious ass on Pros vs. Joes and Dancing with the Stars.
