Mung: What do you make of this Tim Tebow craze?
Nancy P., Boise, ID

Mung:
Glad somebody finally asked me that Nancy! That dude is kickin' ass and takin' names! He's 7-1 since taking over for Kyle Orton. Man. Maybe I should be takin' a knee and a whole lot of babes in g-strings will be fallin' from the sky with their hands full of twenties and bottles of Jack! But I'll tell ya what - if you ask me I think it has more to do with the Broncos "d" than Tebow. The dude couldn't hit the side of a barn with a medicine ball. And to be honest - if the man upstairs has nothin' better to do than watch Sunday NFL, then hell, we're all screwed!

Merry Christmas Mung! What do you think about Albert Pujols going to the Angels?
Tim & Terry H., St. Charles, MO

Mung: Dang T&T, that sure was a helluva lot of cash! I know he'll have a couple of good years out in LA LA land but he's getting a little chunky and doesn't run real well as it is - they'll have to roll him around the bases in a wheelchair when his deal ends in 10 years. Sure he also makes the other hitters better, but shoot -  I think the Cards were smart letting him go. Oh, and Merry Christmas to y'all too. I'm gonna be real busy playing with my new Play Station 2!

Hey Mung,

Where have you been?
JD, Wilmington, DE

Mung: I've been right here, takin' some time off swingin' in my hammock. I know I haven't taken any questions for a few months - that's cause I got laid up a bit after gettin' t-boned getting off the interstate. But doc says I'll be as goood as new once I get used to these new knees. In the meantime, I've been watching lots of football and I gotta say I sure like those New Orleans Saints. Drew is havin' the time of his life and they got a wide variety of quality rb's. I know that they don't a lot of turnovers, but they sure do end up kickin' a lot of hinies! I really think they're goin' all the way!

Dear Mr. Mung: Haven't heard from you in some time. What have you been up to?
Steve D., Ft. Wayne, IN

Mung: Thanks for asking, Steve. Been up to lots, by my standards anyway. Started my fantasy football league for one. Also got to fixin' up my boat - the bottom's pretty wore out and I got to use that rubber stuff in the spray can advertised on late night tv - works pretty good! And lastly, my sister had her fifth kid. Named her Doreen. Nine pounds and seven ounces of pure bouncin' fun.

Hey Mung: Which team do you think was the biggest bust in baseball?
Nevin I., Wilmington, NC

Mung: I don't think there's any team I can think of who I think came up smelling worse than a bar rag than the Florida Marlins. Man, I went to the game the other day when they played the Reds and there must've been no more than 200 butts in the seats. The good part of that was I had plenty of beer for myself. But no wonder, they've had more ups and downs this year than Chang at Six Flags in Kentucky. Firstly, they got hot, then they lost almost all their games in June, fired their manager and rehired 80-year-old Captain Jack and got over .500. Then good 'ol Jack's magic wore off and now they're fixin' to finish August with chances worse than a Middle East dictator!

Mung, I got two questions: What kind of books you got there, it looks like a pretty extensive collection? And also, who's gonna win tonight's All-Star Game?
J.D. B., Nashville, TN

Mung: Well J.D. there's good reason why I got them books turned backwards as a bunch of them aren't fit for youthful consumption if you know what I mean! As far as the ballgame goes, being that I'm a Braves fan, I gotta go with the Nationals. Roy Halladay's startin' and 'ol Roy knows those AL hitters better than most. Three good innings out of him and we're all set. I'll say NL 5 AL 2.

Yo Mung: Who throws a better first pitch John Wall or Dirk Nowitzki?
James D., Baltimore, MD

Mung: Man I'll tell you what, neither of them will threaten good 'ol Roger Clemens. Wall looked like a doe about to take one between the eyes and Dirk looked like he was on his tenth pitcher of Doppelbock. Both of them should stick to heavin' the rock.

Hi Mung: Did you have a good July 4th?
Chrissie J., Duluth, MN

Mung:
Just a lot of bar-b-cuing out back with family and friends. Had to break up a disagreement between my brother's Chuck and J.T. They were arguing over who had the better looking babes in high school. Blew off a few hundred M-80's and woke up about 3:00 am in my hammock with quite a buzz. All in all it was a blast.

Dear Mung: We have been Dodger fans since the team moved to LA in 1958 and we think it's a disgrace what Frank McCourt and his wife have done to our team. How do we get rid of them?
Charles and Nellie V., Valencia, CA

Mung: It sure is pitiful Chuck. Looks like Frank McCourt's name fits him just right - especially the "Court" part. Down here we would use a good strong rope, but I guess times have changed. Playing Three Card Monte with other people's money, that's what old Frank's been doin'. Personally I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire. I just hope Miss Jamie takes him for all she can.

Dear Mung: How high do you think BYU's Jimmer Fredette will go in the NBA Draft?
Hugh G., Denver, CO

Mung: Man, that boy can shoot! But I gotta wonder H.G. what kind of skills he brings to the other side of the court. I mean I don't think he can play "d" worth a damn and gettin' off shots in college sure ain't the same as gettin' them off in the show. Also, he'll be a big drag on his teammates when they all want to go to the "Gentleman's Club" after a game when he'll want to stay in and read "The Book." I'll say he'll end up with the Utah Jazz.

Mung: We think it's great to see Jack McKeon back managing the Florida Marlins even though he's up there in age. What do you think?
Lou and Selma S., Melbourne, FL

Mung: Up there in age? Shoot, that 'ol dude is knocking on the Pearly Gates with both fists! I hear he's 80 if he ain't a day. Wait 'till he sees Hanley Ramirez trot after a foul pop up with a runner on third, he'll have himself a grade A fit! If I were 'ol Jack I'd load up on those diapers for his britches 'cause he's gonna make one big mess in the dugout.

Mr. Mung: What do you make of LeBron James having such a miserable series against Dallas?
Chad T., Salina, KS

Mung: LeBron James shooting in the fourth quarter reminded me of the home movies my daddy took of me when I was a lil' bitty one throwin' a sponge ball around in our above ground pool. Hell, I think I hit my brother Jake more than LBJ hit the rim. It's sad Chad that after taking his talents to South Beach he made such a damn fool of himself on tv. That German dude really did a number on him.

Mung: See any good movies so far this summer?
Ramon D., Flint, MI

Mung: Haven't been in awhile 'cause there are just too many chick flicks. I take a liking to stuff getting blown up.

Hey, Mung: What's up with this Pryor kid at Ohio State?
Dennis G., Louisville, KY

Mung: I was just thinkin' about that myself. 31-4 as a starting qb with the Buckeyes, the world by the you-know-whats. Man, I got tatoos on top of tatoos and I can't recall where I got half of 'em. I don't see why he'd have to trade jersey's and pants to get tatooed and throw away his career like that. 'Reckon he's gonna end up playing in Canada like the Thrashers.

Mung, your thoughts on the our beloved Atlanta Thrashers moving to Winnipeg. We are absolutely heart broken!
Jill and Jake Y., Atlanta, GA

Mung: The thought of it makes me ice cold - and the only ice cold stuff I like is layin' on the top shelf of my fridge. I don't think they gave the Thrashers a chance to grow before they pulled the plug. Hell, I'm still tryin' to figure out what off sides is! But I'll tell you what, those dudes are tough. I saw one 'ol boy lose his front teeth and he just kept on skatin' like it was nothin' more than a slap in the face from his ex. I sure hope those folks up in Winnipeg appreciate what they're gettin'.

Hey Mung: I think paying college players like Steve Spurrier wants is bad for college football. Your thoughts.
Clark J., Columbia, SC

Mung: Pay to play? Heck, I'd pay them to play! Since I was little bitty thing I always dreamed of playing for a major school. The furthest I got was a few pickup games outback. I figure with all the free schooling they get, not to mention the booze and babes and free cars, they're coming out on top if you know what I mean.

Dear Mung, Who do you like to win the WNBA title this season?
Cassie R., Atlanta, GA

Mung: I guess I'll have to defer to my stepdaughter Brandi on this one. She's a greeter at Hooters and she says the Atlanta Dream is the team. Watch out for Coco Miller, at 5'9, 175 she's a killer. I just might have to cool off with a couple of brews thinkin' about that one.

Hi Mung. What do you think about the collision at home plate between the Marlins and Giants that could mean the end of catcher Buster Posey's season?
Brady, from Seattle, WA

Mung. One helluva t-bone, Brady! There should be more of that in baseball instead of all that pansy stuff. Good 'ol country hardball, love it!

Mung, why is soccer so boring?
Dale S. from Nashville, TN

Mung: I can't think of no other reason beside the fact that there's too many dudes with names nobody's never head of. Everbody's either a Hernandez, or Fernandez, or Rodriguez or something like Ramoo Timbuktoo. Also, there ain't much scorin', just plenty of snorin'.

Hey Mung, the little lady seems to always get amourous everytime there's a big game on. I don't want her to leave me, but hey, when the Gators are down at the Bulldogs five with three minutes left a man's gotta have his priorities. What should I do?
Bryant D. from Titusville, FL

Mung: I hear ya loud and clear bro. To me it's all about what she looks like. If she's anything short of Shania Twain I'd push her aside, grab the remote and press the volume button as hard as I could.

Yo Mung, what kind of name is "Mung" anyway?
Jesse D., from St. Charles, MO

Mung: Well Jesse, it ain't French I can tell ya that! When my pops first saw me, he said,"Man, he's young!" So, he put two and two together and came up with "Mung." Ya know, man and young.
