Bust a gut at open mike night

Bust a gut at open mike night Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell was caught with his "dumb" open at the podium of the National Governor's Conference. He fires off some unflattering comments about Homeland Security-select Janet Napolitano. In Texas, he's a lout. In Philadelphia, however, he's considered Dale Carnegie or perhaps an urban Will Rogers. CNN's Campbell Brown tears him a new one in the video. Belly full of anger Women and men in Britain have declared war against Roadrunner Records, whic

About that big Paul Pierce story in Sports Illustrated

About that big Paul Pierce story in Sports Illustrated Posted in Uncategorized | December 3rd, 2008 8 Comments » Truthiness Alan, over at Hubhoops is calling it the “definitive” article on Paul Pierce and heaping praise by the spoonful. But, one thing’s for sure, S.L. Price’s massive story on Paul Pierce, called “The Truth Revealed” is definitely print-and-bring-to-the-toilet worthy. As ticket prices climbed, though, so did the need for distraction, a sleight of hand to cover up how

Who Wants Police Academy 8? Anybody? Just You, Guttenberg?

The Police Academy movies were from a simpler time - a time when a man could make a noise like a toaster with his mouth and people thought it was good. Of course, times have moved on since then - but nobody tell Steve Guttenberg. Guttenberg has decided that he’s ready to make Police Academy 8, even though that would obviously be the worst idea that any human has ever had. Oh, and also Steve Guttenberg says he’s making another Three Men And A Baby movie, too. And Steve Guttenberg has forgotten

Sara sings for her team

Carrie had pointed this out to me this weekend, I guess I should have went and found out some more info.  My new motto, heed the reader tips! Anyway, according to her website, Sara Evans donned her husband's old #7 Alabama Jersey and sang the national anthem before Alabama's game against Auburn on Saturday.  Incidentally, or not, Alabama went on to win the game and end "a six-year losing streak to bitter rival Auburn with a 36-0 win in college football." Sara fans probably always knew she

Red Peters - I Laughed…I Cried…I Fudged My Undies

This album came out when I was twelve years old. One of my summer camp counselors used to play “Ballad Of A Dog Named Stains” on a regular basis. Two or three years later I remember hearing it on the Howard Stern show during a morning drive to school, and I was delighted at the mainstream acceptance of such a hilarious song. Of course, I always thought the song was written in earnest. I never heard any of the other cuts off this album, so for the last thirteen years I assumed it was a simple

APPT Sydney: You'll come a Waltzing Matilda

The temperature is nudging 85 degrees outside; the ferries are chugging across Sydney Harbour in the brilliant Australian sunshine and in the Star City poker room, the anticipation is reaching fever pitch as players begin to assemble for the first of the three day 1 flights in the PokerStars.net APPT Grand Final. Last year, the finale of the APPT’s first season attracted a massive field of 561. Registrations are ticking over, meaning this year’s field could still surpass that figure. Last ye

Sweeping The Nation Albums Of 2008: Numbers 40-31

40 Clinic - Do It! Clinic are, if they'll forgive us for this, the Status Quo of garage-stomp-psych-Kraut-dub-folk-soundtrack-experimental-whatever the hell it is they do. You know what every album sounds like by now - some of it will be fuzzy and punky, some stompy and weirdy, some spooky and melodica-y. There'll be odd instruments, vintage organ whirrs, distortion, muffled lead vocals, doo wop backing vocals and some combination of surgical masks, Beefeater outfits, Hawaiian shirts and smocks

Game Notes: Blazers at Pistons

by Eric Woodyard You’d think the Pistons would have came out with more energy with the Cheetah Girls performing the national anthem. Instead, the Trailblazers dominated with their size. LaMarcus Aldridge looked rather Sheed-like as he led the way for Portland with 27 points on 11-19 shooting. He put on an array of post moves so dazzling that it had me thinking Nike should don him with the fadeaway emblem that they grace Sheed with on his sneakers. The torch has been passed!

Roger Gibbins: Michaelle Jean should refuse Harper's resignation

Governor General Michaelle Jean faces a truly awful choice next Monday: she can call an election that no one wants, or she can bring in an unstable minority government kept in power at the whim of a party dedicated to the destruction of Canada. Fortunately, there is a way out of this box. She can just say no. Many commentators argue that the Governor General in fact has no choice at all, that if the Conservative government of Stephen Harper loses the confidence of the House of Commons, he m

WEC 37: Miguel Torres And Manny Tapia Will "Represent Latinos... December 3rd"

The WEC 37 will headline Miguel Torres (34-1-0) vs. Manny "The Mangler" Tapia (10-0-1) as the main event, two Mexican-Americans who look to "represent latinos" in the WEC bantamweight division (135 lbs.). Latinos have proven to be some of the best boxers in the world as indicated by Torres: "This is huge for Hispanics...I'm fighting Manny and we're both at 135, the main event of a televised MMA fight. It's a big honor. There's not too many Hispanics in the sport, but latinos are here to sta

Quality Tipoff: Hindsight Is A Fickle Mistress

Looking back, maybe trading Devin Harris for Jason Kidd wasn’t such a good idea. He’s taken his game to another level this year and he’s probably going to make the All Star team. Two straight nights he’s served heaping helpings of pwnsauce - first going off for 34 points at Utah and then last night absolutely erupted for 47 points last night over the hapless Suns at America West Arena. Looks like everyone agrees: Harris is the next big thing. Also from The L last night: Blazers 96, Pistons 8
