Vin Diesel...and Paul Walker have signed on....to reprise their roles of Dominic Torretto and Brian O'Conner respectfully...
This means there's yet another Fast and the Furious coming out, or something.
It's absolutely fucking crazy that another one of these flicks is coming out...Absolutely batshit crazy.
You know what's even crazier, is that Paul Walker and Vin Diesel actually confirmed it. Diesel saying "I think doing the cameo in 'Tokyo Drift' confirmed a lot of things for me. It confirmed that if you create a role that the world kind of identifies with, or the world adopts, sometimes you have that responsibility to revisit that role".
NO!

Chimps.
This movie sounds so good...it hurts. Andy Samberg is apparently going to voice a chimp named Ham in Chimps. Ham being the main character, will be a mischievous little chimp who leads a team into Outerspace in order to explore a mysterious new planet.
Sounds...fantastic.
Saw it over at Darkhorizons.com, go visit you bastards.

Segment: How to...
How does one procure free tickets to the Superbowl? You might be thinking that you need to be famous, or know someone who is playing in said game, but all you really have to do is nearly die.
Just ask Kevin Everett of the Buffalo Bills.

YES!!! GOOD GI JOE NEWS!!
Dennis Quaid is playing General Hawk! The team leader of the Joe squad. This means, that Duke is supposed to probably be young. Meaning that Channing Tatum can play him. Dennis Quaid is awesome, AWESOME! It does suck, however, that the flick doesn't come out til Aug. 7th 2009.
Talk about set in the future.

A Fischer flick already?
Kevin Macdonald, who helmed last years impressive The Last King of Scotland has been tapped to direct Bobby Fischer Goes To War which would center on the former 15-year old Chess Prodigy who subsequently went on to be batshit crazy.
Matt Reeves travels back to Cloverfield...
I was thinking about it, and I realized that I would definitely see a sequel to 2008's Cloverfield I didn't mean for it to sound like 2008 is over, but that's the way it came out. Cloverfield shattered the box office it's opening week with an astounding $41 million dollars in January. It's a fantastic flick with a great real feel to it.
Reeves is currently attached to helm the upcoming Invisible Woman which has no connections to the Fantastic Four or Jessica Alba. Reeves would, of course, helm the Untitled Cloverfield sequel with JJ Abrams and Bad Robot productions behind him.
Interesting stuff.

K-State upsets K at Home.
Now for those of you who know me, know that I don't give a rats ass about College basketball. Although, this is one of those stories you can't ignore if you're a guy who writes about all the current happenings. Kansas State hired this guy, Frank Martin, to coach their team. Everything was questionable, everything, yet the guy goes on to do what no other K-State coach has done since 1983, beat Kansas at home.
Interesting stuff, and the replays were good too.

Plaxico says...what now?
Plaxico Burress is a great reciever. He's versatile, he's enormous, he's Eli Manning's go-to-guy. However, his deductive reasoning skills go to the wayside, when he says the Giants are going to beat the Patriots 23-17 in Superbowl 32.
Tom Brady though, handled this shit like a champion, he laughed it off. I mean, wouldn't you? You're the best Quarterback of the last five years, you've just tossed 50 TDs and had a QB Rating somewhere near like 3,000.5. I mean, I would laugh like I just saw an old woman get hit by a car.
Plaxico Burress isn't an odd's maker. He's not allowed to bet on the game, so his odds are off. The actual odds for the game are 12.5 points given to the Giants. Brady said, ""I wish he had said 45-42 and gave us a little credit for more points."
With that shit-eating, well deserved grin on his face.

Report: Edwards to drop out of '08 Pres race.
John Edwards, who has gotten his ass kicked for the last two-three months has decided that it's time to bow out, at least that's what sources say. At this point, he is not endorsing anyone, but his previous running mate John Kerry is actually endorsing Obama, so I wouldn't be surprised if he did as well.
Rudy Guiliani will apparently be the next to quit; because he's getting murdah'd!

Owens drops a dime...
And the Eagles picked it up...and it wasn't a dime it was an old fine that Owens got while playing for the Eagles. A nice little number in the realm of $800,000 dollars. That's nearly a million for those of you who can't count.
I hate you Terrell Owens; why couldn't you just succeed at suicide.
I...think I might be going to hell.

The Mets are the team to beat?
Really?
Lets see, do they have Dan Haren and Brandon Webb?
This is the little poll that ESPN had.
Lets see, do they have Dan Haren and Brandon Webb?
This is the little poll that ESPN had.
| 1) If the proposed Johan Santana trade to the Mets goes through, which team would be getting the better end of the deal? | |
| 90.3% | Mets (would receive Johan Santana) |
| 9.7% | Twins (would receive Carlos Gomez, Phil Humber, and two minor leaguers) Firstly, the Twins are getting FOUR guys, obviously they're making out like bandits here. This proves that people are fucking stupid. |
2) Would the acquisition of Johan Santana make the Mets the preseason favorites to win the 2008 World Series? | |
| 63.5% | No |
| 36.5% | Yes Finally a right answer. The Mets will still not win the World Series with the addition of Johan Santana. One player does not win a season. Especially not the 15-13 Johan Santana. |
3) How will Santana perform in 2008 if he is traded to the National League? | |
| 55.7% | 16-19 wins, 2.50-3.50 ERA |
| 39.0% | 20 or more wins, less than 2.50 ERA |
| 5.3% | 15 or fewer wins, greater than 3.50 ERA 20+ wins getting 39 percent? Are you fucking off your gourd, you douches? Seriously. Santana will probably get around 16-17 wins, and somewhere in the vicinity of a 3 ERA |
4) Santana's strikeout and walk rates remained consistent in 2007, but his home run rate jumped significantly. What does this mean for his career going forward? | |
| 59.6% | He's not untouchable, but still one of the best pitchers in baseball |
| 36.0% | Nothing; it's a one-year blip |
| 4.4% | Hitters have figured him out, and he'll have more trouble from now on Another correct answer. I've never been a huge fan of Santana, because for the life of me, I can't see what the big deal is. He's a good pitcher yes, but a good pitcher is still good on a bad team. |
5) If Santana is traded to the Mets, would too much of baseball's elite talent be concentrated on the East Coast? | |
| 57.9% | No |
| 42.1% | Yes Uh. Yes, 58 percent of people who did this survey are retarded. |
6) Is Santana worth a long-term (6- or 7-year) deal? | |
| 75.6% | Yes |
| 24.4% | No Was Pedro? |
7) Will Santana make the Hall of Fame? | |
| 81.7% | Yes |
| 18.3% | No He's 28 years old, he has 93 wins in eight seasons and a lifetime ERA of 3.22...right now? He's not a HOFer, in ten years, with 290+ wins and an ERA of say...2.50+ he might be. |
8) If Santana is traded, which high-profile Mets pitcher will end up with the better career? | |
| 54.0% | Johan Santana |
| 46.0% | Pedro Martinez I personally think that Santana would have the better career regardless. I still think the Mets are going to stink up the joint. Who has a better one-two punch, the D'Backs with Haren/Webb or the Mets with Martinez/Santana, Braves with Hudson/Smoltz, or the Cubs with Zambrano/Hill, or even for the sake of argument San Diego's Peavy/Young combination...that's followed by Greg Maddux. |
9) If Santana is traded, who would be the best pitcher in the National League? | |
| 62.7% | Johan Santana |
| 13.7% | Jake Peavy |
| 5.4% | Brandon Webb |
| 4.5% | Cole Hamels |
| 2.8% | Carlos Zambrano |
| 2.1% | John Smoltz |
| 2.1% | Roy Oswalt |
| 1.2% | Pedro Martinez |
| 1.2% | Brad Penny |
| 1.0% | Dan Haren |
| 1.0% | Ben Sheets |
| 0.7% | Tim Hudson |
| 0.6% | Matt Cain |
| 0.5% | Aaron Harang |
| 0.4% | Chris Young BULLSHIT! Once again, stymied by the fact that people are stupid. Johan Santana will not be the best pitcher in the NL next year, because Jake Peavy will be. It annoys me that Dan Haren is so low on this list, and that Santana got 62.7% of the votes. What a crock of shit. |
10) If the trade goes through, would the Twins be contenders in the AL Central? | |
| 87.0% | No |
| 13.0% | Yes The Twins just basically turned themselves into the Florida Marlins. If they get more than 80 wins, I'll cry. |
Mets reach tentative deal, may get Santana.

Go...Joe?
The reason why I am so...I guess if you can type skeptics, that would be skeptics. I recently wrote that Mike Vogel of Cloverfield was going to play Duke in the upcoming Steven Sommers (shudder the thought) GI JOE flick. However, I was wrong. I've found out that Channing Tatum of Step Up fame is going to play the biggest named GI JOE in history.
To be honest with you, I'm skeptical. Tatum put on a great fucking performance in A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints, but I have yet to see him anything else but She's The Man and Step Up which were both fucking horrendous. Therefore, I am highly skeptical of this.
Tatum, though, has a flick coming out called Stop Loss which also stars Ryan Phillippe, Tim Olyphant, and Joseph-Gordon Levitt. It's about a soldier who refuses to return to war, despite the military forcing him too.

Crash becomes a series...
Award Winning flick Crash which was written and produced by Paul Haggis (who arguably is one of the best writers out there today, The Last Kiss is absolutely fucking fantastic) is being made into a 13-episode series put out by Lionsgate...for Starz...the pay-cable channel.
I am not buying Starz. I refuse. Starz might get this show, but they're channels suck. When anyone has a pay-cable channel with Black in front of their name. I fold. I can't do it. This one goes on the "Online Watching" list.

Things I'm looking forward to in '08
This is just a tentative list; keep in mind I'll be adding and taking away from said list as time goes on:
1. Boston Red Sox vs. Oakland A's. Section 42, Row 8. August 1st. Otherwise Known As: Dan-O and JD's Road Trip to Boston!
2. The Dark Knight otherwise known as (technically) "Heath Ledgers Last Groove"
3. Presidential Race.
4. Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN. Even if I loathe Joe Morgan I still love watching baseball on ESPN.
5. Minor League Baseball; The Hagerstown Suns have a thing called Thirsty Thursday or so they did anyway; so I hope and pray (not so much the latter) that they still have beers for a buck twenty five.
6. The possibility of another Bret Easton Ellis book, and the possibility that it's a sequel to Less than Zero.
7. Metallica's Ninth Studio album..& Weezer's 6th Studio Album, both of which are produced by Rick Rubin.
8. An Ellis film adaptation called The Informers which stars the late Brad Renfro, Brandon Routh, and others.
There's lots of other shit too...but whatever.

No Boot for Tom..
Tom Brady doesn't like boots. From what I understand he prefers sneakers in every kind of weather. Therefore, when he was wearing his boot/case for the last week because of a mild high ankle sprain he was in excruciatingly designer limbo. He said:
"I didn't know what to do, because I had nothing to wear with the boot."
Now Brady, leader of the undefeated Patriots is sans Das Boot ( a movie that is like three days long, mind you) and speaks to nearly 15,000 fans at Foxborough saying that he's going to win, win, win come next Sunday.
Snow pouring down around the Pats, Brady flashed his boyish grin and said that "there was only one reason to go" which was to win.
Kidding aside, Brady spoke to a bunch of Bostonians and uh..said the Patriots were going to win. And snow was falling down around them; literally.
Also, he said that the Patriots were to be known only as the New English Patriarchs.

Who does Kennedy's Daughter endorse? Obama
You know what's funny, is my mom constantly sends me Chain Mail which consists of Barack Obama being Muslim, and/or black. Like it matters what color skin he has. This is the twenty-first century...for fuck's sake...grow up. If you're an ignorant piece of shit from the south (or from Chambersburg, PA) then you say "OH GOD NO, WE DON'T WANT A BLACK PRESIDENT" and to this I say, you should die in a plane crash along with every country singer.
Obama is the right choice for president. Do you really want Hillary Clinton (if you say yes, you're stupid)? Hillary Clinton, no offense to women, but she couldn't handle her husbands cock, so he had to bring it elsewhere. In society (not just American) unless you're Nicole Bass (..gah) or Chyna (Eek..) then you're viewed as weak. If I can kick your ass, you shouldn't be president of the United States of America.
Barack Obama could surely kick my ass. And here's another thing, if some idiot redneck tells me that he's Muslim again, I'm going to fucking gouge his fucking eyes out with a fucking spoon. A rusty one at that, because I wouldn't want to see their toothless gaze when I tell him/her (rednecks come in both Genders) that Obama is not a Muslim, he didn't grow up in Afghanistan ...he actually was born in Honolulu and spent a major portion of his life in Indonesia. His father was raised a Muslim, but by his adulthood was an atheist. Obama was baptised and has been a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ for over twenty years.
So, he's not a fucking Muslim alright? This isn't a fucking plot to destroy the World. He's running for president you fucking jaggoffs.
Caroline Kennedy has endorsed Obama for President; and Obama won the South Carolina primary.

The Shake Down...
I really couldn't devise a better title. I tried. I really did. This CNN article states that via Cloverfield people had to get up in the middle of it - because they were getting dizzy and they had to hurl.
Pussies.
First of all, the camera work, was actually pretty damn good. Not nearly as bad as Blair Witch Project which had the worst camera work in the history of film. Secondly, I saw the flick, and it was awesome. Awesome. I didn't get dizzy, no one in the theatre with me got dizzy. People are fucking pussies when it comes to shit like this.
Aww...Poor baby got a tummy ache. Cry me a fucking river you douchebag.
I'm angry...ARGGHH..
Here's the article.

The World is over...literally...
Heath Ledger dies, and then some asshole creates Pen-Top utensils. I fucking hate this person.
Although, the first comment on the page is classic.
"I often write with my knife...after it has been dipped in the blood of my vanquished foes."
It hurts to laugh.
This is from Marc, but I was too impatient to wait...plus I'm bored to tears.

By Any Means Necessary...
FUCK YOU BLOGGER.COM...
Grrr...With all that's going on...I swear I'm going to kill someone today. I swear it. Or myself, one or the other. By Any Means Necessary is the next Jack Ryan flick, which'll star Ryan Gosling in the title role. This flick of course, will be sans the creator Tom Clancy.
They also got a director...
This guy: Fernando Meirelles. He directed City of God and City of Men.

Fighting through the clouds...
Literally it feels like my brain is trying to devour itself from the inside into my eyes. I have had a headache since 7:15am...and it annoys me, because I didn't have to arise until at least 8:30am. I feel like death...everytime I clear my throat my head throbs. I wish, I was Heath Ledger...Oh Wait...That's just ...fucked up.
Speaking of Heath Ledger cops found a rolled up/folded $20 dollar bill in his apartment...and apparently they suspected the worst. Illegal drug usage, however, fuck you coppers! No illegal drugs were used with that $20 dollar bill.
It will take 10-14 days to determine what the cause of death is; I'm saying accidental OD on over the counter sleeping pills (ambien).

Santana to Mets ...if they give up the farm...
It's true, the Mets could possible get Johan Santana if they throw in their highly touted prospect Fernando Martinez along with Chris Gomez, Philip Humber, Kevin Mosbey, and some other weird named dude. (I don't even know if Kevin Mosbey is right, I listened to this on SNYOnline).
Brandon Tierney (from 1050 ESPN), who is probably the biggest fucking idiot I have ever seen. Aside from the fact that he says Santana is a great idea. Apparently he doesn't hesitate a bit. He brings up old-school prospect guys like Paul Wilson and says that prospects should be regarded as "Suspect" because they're not shitting and getting off the pot.
FUCK THE HECK!?
Seriously, Brandon, what the fuck is wrong with you, idiot? Half of these guys are fucking Double-A guys, who need serious time in the farm system. That's what the Farm System is THERE FOR! Holy Shit. Brandon Tierney is a fucking moron, and he says afterward that there's a lot to consider (even though he said it was a no-brainer) and apparently if the Mets sign Santana they've won the NL East.
Santana went 15-13 in 2007, with a 3.33 ERA.
Yeah, the Mets are going to win it all.
I want to compare the Mets/Twins rosters from 2007.
At first base you have Carlos Delgado for the Mets, and Justin Morneau for the Twins.
Morneau hit .271 with 31 dingers and 111 RBIs.
Delgado hit .258 with 24 HRs, and 87 RBIs.
Second Base really sucks for both teams; The Mets went out and got (big shock) Luis Castillo ...from the Twins!
Castillo hit .304 with no HRs, and 18 RBIs for the Twins
Castillo hit .296 with 1 HR and 20 RBIs for the Mets
...
I give up...
I'm too lazy to even consider doing the rest of this. First of all, I don't see how one player like Santana can make the Mets better when Pedro was supposed to be the answer to all the problems. They still fucking lost, they still had the worst downward spiral in the last month of the 2007, that it looked like they might just implode. They've brought up a couple of guys from their farm system, guys like David Wright and Jose Reyes, whose talent I can't argue with (Gold Glove is a bit much), but you can't just put all your eggs in one basket, you can't just sign everyone, you have to kind of develop talent.
Or Not.
And you can have a payroll in the $200+ Million range and lose every fucking year...
Good luck with that.

What the fuck, Canseco?
Seriously as I try desperately to find something to read I find this article on Yahoo! Sports, whereas it says Magglio Ordonez was contacted by Jose Canseco, who asked for money to finance a movie based on his book Juiced. He claimed he wouldn't implicated Ordonez in his second book...
Now, I don't know about you, but I never really suspected Ordonez of using steroids, and Scott Boras is lit up over this (Boras is Ordonez's agent). Scott Boras filed a complaint with the FBI over Canseco's alleged call.
For the record Ordonez is probably one of the most even baseball players in the league right now. His numbers are fantastic; he sits on a .312 lifetime average, with nearly a 1,000 RBIs, and 247 HRs. He's been playing for ten years, this 2008 season will be his 11th; it pisses me off that Canseco is so desperate for money that he's trying to throw people (like Ordonez, A-Rod) under the Steroid-Bus. It's just stupid and ignorant.

He's been playing for ten years, this 2008 season will be his 11th; it pisses me off that Canseco is so desperate for money that he's trying to throw people (like Ordonez, A-Rod) under the Steroid-Bus. It's just stupid and ignorant.

GO JOE!
Apparently Sam Worthington who was up for the role of Duke in GI JOE, a live-action flick based on the 80's cartoon, has dropped out due to conflicts with his Avatar schedule.
Mike Vogel, who just starred in Cloverfield, is apparently up for the role now.

Gosling is the new Jack Ryan
You know, I loved the Jack Ryan flicks, Hunt For Red October despite my hatred for Alec Baldwin and Sum of All Fears, and Patriot Games with Harrison Ford. One of the strangest things imaginable though, is that Ryan Gosling (The Notebook, Lars and the Real Girl) is going to play Jack Ryan in an upcoming flick.
If you were going chronologically the next book by Clancy would be Debt of Honor which is pretty much never going to happen as it takes place after a plane is Hijacked by Terrorists and flown into the capital building.

Here are the 2007 Oscar Noms...
Well the ones that count anyway...
Best Actor
George Clooney - Michael Clayton
Daniel Day Lewis - There Will Be Blood
Johnny Depp - Sweeney Todd
Tommy Lee Jones - The Valley of Elah
Viggo Mortensen - Eastern Promises
My Pick? Daniel Day Lewis.
Best Supporting Actor
Casey Affleck - The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Javier Bardem - No Country For Old Men
Philip Seymour Hoffman - Charlie Wilson's War
Hal Holbrook - Into the Wild
Tom Wilkinson - Michael Clayton
My Pick? Javier Bardem hands down. Hoffman was great in Charlie Wilson's War, but Bardem was OUTSTANDING in No Country For Old Men.
Best Actress
Cate Blanchett - Elizabeth: The Golden Age
Julie Christie - Away From Her
Marion Cotillard - La Vie En Rose
Laura Linney - The Savages
Ellen Page - Juno
My Pick? Well I've only seen Juno, but Ellen Page really owned that flick, so it would be her anyway.
Best Supporting Actress
Cate Blanchett - I'm Not There
Rudy Dee - American Gangster
Saoirse Ronan - Atonement
Amy Ryan - Gone Baby Gone
Tilda Swinton - Michael Clayton
My Pick? Saoirse Ronan from Atonement. I have seen three of the four others, so I think my pick is valid. This girl Ronan is going to play the lead in Peter Jackson's The Lovely Bones
Best Director
Julian Schnabel - The Diving Bell And The Butterfly
Jason Reitman - Juno
Tony Gilroy - Michael Clayton
Joel & Ethan Coen - No Country For Old Men
Paul Thomas Anderson - There Will Be Blood
My Pick? The Cohen Bros. duh. No Country For Old Men was fantastic.
Best Picture
Atonement
Juno
Michael Clayton
No Country For Old Men
There Will Be Blood
My Pick? Well it annoys me to no end that Ben Affleck didn't even get a Best Director nom for Gone Baby Gone and it annoys me that he got snubbed for Best Picture. I've seen every single one of these flicks, and my favorites are Atonement and No Country For Old Men. The others are good, but those are two of the best of the year. Atonement will probably win though...

Everyone Reporting...Heath Ledger found dead.
Holy shit.
Heath Ledger was found dead this afternoon. .
NYPD suspects it's drug related.
EDIT:
Apparently he was found in the home of Mary Kate Olsen, one of the Olsen twins, laying naked on the floor with pills all around him. The Housekeeper came in to tell him his masseuse was there, and found him that way at around 3:30pm.
This is insane.
Everyone from MSNBC to Yahoo to this site is reporting this. Really sad stuff.
Sad to the point where if it's a drug overdose, he's a selfish bastard for leaving his 2-year old daughter.
EDIT 2: He was apparently found at this address: 421 Broome Street in SoHo
EDIT 3: Apparently it wasn't Mary-Kate Olsen's Apartment, according to TMZ.com and everyone else redacting their previous statements.

Thompson bows out gracefully....
Yeah, Fred Thompson who played the District Attorney on Law & Order for years, has bowed out of the Presidential race.
Kind of figured this was going to happen...
Guiliani is next.

Philip Rivers
I have a newfound respect for Philip Rivers.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/playoffs07/news/story?id=3207105
The whole story is available there, but for those of you too lazy or to click, it pretty much says that between the Colts game and the Patriots game, Rivers had knee surgery and STILL played. And he has a torn ACL as well that's going to require surgery and a fucking intense rehab (I would know, I've torn mine).
Now that's a competitor.

More Brotherhood
Showtime has done a good thing...they've reupped Brotherhood for a third season. I love this show, honestly, it's better written than Sopranos ever was. We don't know when the show will come back, mainly because of the Writers Strike.
The Writers Strike has totally fucked everything up. Smallville and countless other hit shows could end as early as March.
TV is not very impressive right now.

Stone makes a "Bush"
Oliver Stone is interested in doing a flick on George W. Bush; who knows if there is a script yet or why he wants to make a movie about George Bush. The writer is apparently the same guy who penned Wall Street.
Giants goes against the Pats in the Superbowl.
The Giants pulled out an upset this past Sunday when they went against the Packers and won. The Patriots also beat up on an already injury-plagued Chargers team.
The Giants will go up against the 18-0 heavily favored Patriots in the Superbowl on February 3rd 2008.

Cloverfield pounds the competition...
Being that I saw the flick, I knew this was going to happen. The theaters were packed; you had to know that it was going to make:
$41 million dollars
In it's opening weekend.

Jones defeats Trinidad in 12 via UA
Roy Jones Jr. and Felix Trinidad busted their asses tonight, beating the shit out of each other. What helped Jones secure the Unanimous Decision was his knock downs of Trinidad in the 7th and 10th and wins in the last 7 rounds of the competition.
This is honestly like the first boxing match I've watched since Mike Tyson faced someone, and took another bite out of someone's ear. I do like boxing, I've never really been a huge fan, but I can understand why people do watch it. Boxing is undeniably the most tiring sport in the world. You constantly have to defend your face, move your feet and throw your fists at people. UFC is probably fucking hard, but a lot of times you're on the ground in submission moves. Imagine if you will, keeping your arms up, bent at the elbows in front of your face for 12 rounds of a match, all the while staying on your feet and moving around to evade jabs, uppercuts, and hooks.
I give massive props to Roy Jones Jr and Felix Trinidad for keeping me entertained. They're both in their late thirties (Jones; 39, Trinidad; 35), but still managed to keep that going competitively for 12 rounds.
A good show.

Cloverfield.
I've been talking about this movie for almost a year now. Every since I saw the trailer way back when, I was intrigued. I honestly didn't know what to expect, I wanted to be awed, I wanted to see it again and again.
Firstly, they showed a Star Trek trailer before this flick, the new Star Trek directed by JJ Abrams, and starring John Cho, Chris Pine, Eric Bana, Winona Ryder, Karl Urban, Bruce Greenwood, Zoe Saldana, etc. They don't show anyone, but I understand why they're doing this movie. I understand that the original series came out in 1966 and anyone born from 1980 and beyond thinks it's the lack-luster Star Wars ...well..this is going to revamp that. This flick is going to start a whole new saga for people, it's going to reinvent these characters: Captain Kirk and Spock for people like me and people who have never seen the original series. I will be there in December to see this flick. I trust Abrams and his new cast - who seem eager - to do the show/flicks justice.
Alright...now it's Cloverfield time.
To start this off, I want to say that I saw the Matthew Broderick-starrer Godzilla in the theater when it came out, with my buddy Los. I knew then, that it wasn't the best movie I have ever seen. It was a flashy, start studded affair, with lots of fantastic visuals and a giant copied monster.
To everyone who goes to see this flick.
This is our Godzilla.
In the modern age of technology, in the age of the Blair Witch Project, this is what we needed. It's a change of pace to see the destruction through someone's eyes. We need realism, and this is what is delivered to us by director Matt Reeves and producer JJ Abrams. I personally enjoyed the shit out of this flick, I truly did. My brother loved it. It was a fantastic movie, and they stayed true to what they wanted to do. Never did they waiver from the handi-cam. Never did they change points of view (Well they did...but I won't get into that) or switch to a regular camera. If they were seeing this, we were seeing this. Even if that meant the other parts of the tape...
The tape which is used to tape the going away party of Robert Hawkins, was a tape Robert used to tape a morning he spent with Beth McIntyre. He finds this out, he's annoyed, but ultimately gets over it. What happens through out the course of the flick when the recording stops, we see snippets of this morning. We see them happy and at Coney Island. And in my opinion ...it adds so much to the movie.
The overall action of the flick is tremendous. God, if this were to actually happen, what the fuck would we do? I've been saying exactly what my plans are: to get batshit crazy drunk and fight the sumbitch head on. Not the smartest plan, but when death is subsequently the final outcome, what are you going to do? The monster is nothing like Godzilla at all. I mean, aside from the fact that it's a giant, creepy, gargantuan monster. I'm not even going to look for a picture of it; it was crazy looking and when you were reading things about it months ago, about things splitting off of it...they weren't lying.
I was talking with Marc about this one day, about when you go to the movie you want to either be entertained or believe in what you're watching. Believing in something, doesn't mean you're actually believing what you're watching. That doesn't make sense, but what I mean is that you don't have to believe in what's happening. You just have to believe in the directors/producers ability to give it to you. Did they give you the best possible display in order to make you believe in their work and not laugh about it afterward?
With Cloverfield I got that. I totally believed this was happening (obviously it wasn't), it felt real, nothing about the filming of this was fake. It was substantially one of the most realistic films I've seen in years. Everything felt right within the movie, everything eratic, everything scary, everyone within the movie in a state of disbelief, while everyone in the theater was thinking (and they may not admit it) "What if this actually happened?"
I'd get drunk and fight the big fucking monster, and pretty much die immediately.
Cloverfield lived up to the hype.

Sean Paul's music is...The Devils Music
Some lady, who's name I don't care to remember had seizures at the hands of Sean Paul's music.
Really? No shit. Have you listened to Sean Paul's music? Christ, it's the worst thing since Adolf Hitler playing the piano. He's atrocious, a fucking scumbag piece of shit.
And I hope he dies in a plane crash.

Chess Master Bobby Fischer dies at 64.
Bobby Fischer, who was immortalized by the moving Searching For Bobby Fischer, where an American boy refuses to become what Bobby Fischer was, a reclusive unlikable person.
Back in 1992 Fischer traveled to Belgrade to face Spassky and his passport was revoked, yet he still traveled on it until 2004 when he was detained by Japan for nine months. Iceland actually offered him a place to live, which he accepted and lived until his death.
It's a very weird story, Fischer was a very strange guy. He went on to be the most prolific chess player in history, but was just a whiny little brat.

Teixeira, countless others, sign to avoid arbitration
Mark Teixeira got a pay raise after doing remarkably well after being traded to the Braves last season. He avoided arbitration and signed a $12.5 million dollar deal.
Ryan Madson ($1.4) and Brad Lidge ($6.35 mil) both avoided arbitration with the Phils.
Huston Street avoided arbitration with the A's and signed a $3.3 million dollar deal, a $3 million dollar pay raise compared to the $380,000 he made last year.
The Rays' Carlos Pena signed a one year deal worth $6 million; but reached a preliminary agreement on a 3-year near $25 million dollar contract.
Ryan Howard, Matt Holliday, Francisco Rodriguez, and Miguel Cabrera are still filing for arbitration.

Garrett's content...
Jason Garrett who was the Offensive Coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys; was offered the Head Coaching job in Baltimore. Not that it's a very lucrative job, but I mean, Head Coach is Head Coach. Regardless of that little nugget of truth, Jason Garrett decided to stay with the Cowboys when they offered to pay him $3 million a year, making him the highest paid Assistant Coach ever.
I am not really sure what all the hype is about Garrett. We're talking about a guy who spent the majority of his career sitting on the bench; or acting as Assistant Coach. . . which he now is anyway. He had 11 career TDs in 13 years! That's 1.18 a year. Which...kind of blows. He had 2,042 career passing yards in 13 seasons...Tom Brady threw for like a million this year alone.

Valley of the "Fringe"
"Fringe" is a new show that FOX is going to be putting out which is produced by JJ Abrams Bad Robot (which is behind Cloverfield). It's based on a young female FBI-Agent who's forced to work with an institutionalized Scientist to face unexplained phenomena. The chick lead hasn't been cast yet, but I'm sure they're looking at a familiar face...Jennifer Garner...Keri Russell anyone?
Anyway Mark Valley, who I am a huge fan of since his role in Keen Eddie and before that as well on Pasadena has inked a role in the 2-hour pilot, which'll be directed by Alex Graves. Valley will play another FBI-Agent opposite Kirk Acevedo (Black Donnellys, Oz).
Alex Graves has been around the block having directed: The West Wing, Sports Night, Journeyman, The Practice, Boston Public, as well as Ally McBeal.

Brett Favre is an awesome cold-weather QB...
That is, according to this article on ESPN...
Did you know that the coldest cold-weather stadiums are these below:
Green Bay Packers
25.90 degrees (F)
Cleveland Browns
34.39
Kansas City Chiefs
35.06
Buffalo Bills
35.94
Pittsburgh Steelers
36.10
Chicago Bears
36.35
Cincinnati Bengals
36.56
New England Patriots
36.85
At least New England came in last in something ...Next year though, I heard they were going to ice the field; and make snow balls for the fans to throw at the opposing team.

Fins get a coach...
Tony Sparano, formerly with the Dallas Cowboys for the past five seasons, has agreed to become the coach of the Miami Dolphins. Good luck with that one. I find it funny that people are saying the Dolphins have a great young team to build around...
Here's a great idea...trade away Chris Chambers...
Oh wait!

Leiber signs deal; returns to Cubbies
Jon Leiber signed a one year deal with the Chicago Cubs today, though it's not known for how much, you have to assume it's north of a million. Also this kind of throws Ryan Dempster back in the Bullpen and ultimately lands Leiber with a spot in the Cubs pitching rotation.
Also, the Brian Roberts trade isn't nearly finalized.

Tracii Lords lands a porno...
Not the kind of shit you see here at the BofA, but then again, it's not a real porno. It's Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri Make a Porno which already stars Seth Rogen, Elizabeth Banks, Jeff Anderson, Jason Mewes, and The Office's Craig Robinson. Also appearing in the flick is Katie Morgan of the HBO special Katie Morgan: A Porn Star Revealed (I've seen it. It's good).
Oddly enough Opie & Anthony's own Jim Norton is rumored to have a role in the flick.
Fuck yeah. This shit is shaping up.

Rogar Avary under arrest.
Roger Avary who wrote parts of Pulp Fiction and Rules of Attraction...was arrested under suspicion of manslaughter and driving under the influence. The person who died was a friend of Avary's and his wife from Italy. He died when Avary's car spun out of control Sunday morning.
Just thought I'd post this...
Yup, that's Chris O'Donnell as Robin. From Batman & Robin. Albeit, I loathed the flick.
Coolest Rumor since...Bale playing Robin.
Seriously, Bale auditioned for the role of Robin in Batman Forever but instead Chris O'Donnell got the role of the 'Boy Wonder' ...good thing too, because O'Donnell's career has careened into a shit heap. Anyway.
The Rumor is...
Quentin Tarantino is planning a remake of Less Than Zero the less than favorite movie adaptation of any Bret Easton Ellis' work. I remember the movie Less Than Zero with Robert Downey Jr. and Andrew McCarthy. It's not completely awful, but being that I'm such an enormous fan of Ellis' books...I must say it's not a proper representation. I think Tarantino would do it justice, and it'd be his first sit down and watch flick in a very long time. This is all according to Wikipedia.org.

Brad Renfro dead at the age of 25...
Holy Fuck guys.
I couldn't believe my eyes. Brad Renfro was found dead in his apartment Tuesday. It's a sad thing, the guy made his debut in The Client opposite Susan Sarandon and Tommy Lee Jones. He just wrapped up filming on Gordon Jarecki's The Informers which is based on the book of the same name by Bret Easton Ellis.
We at the BofA mourn the passing of Brad Renfro today.

Potter times two!
Alright, so this is uncharacteristic of me to write about. I do like the Harry Potter flicks, they're enjoyable. I don't read the books, they bore the holy fuck out of me. I even have them all in e-book form, so someday when I'm bored to the point of suicide I will sit there and read them. However, I just read on Ain't it Cool News, that The Deathly Hollows the final Harry Potter book is going to be split in two flicks.
Two flicks. Lots of money.
Not a bad idea. Good thing I don't see anymore movies in the theater; oh well.
The idea is to split the movie in two, because apparently it's a little on the longish side. Whhhhhhatever.

Johnny Podres, the left handed pitcher who clinched the Brooklyn Dodgers' only World Series title...died Sunday at the age of 75.
Podres will forever be immortalized for telling his teammates that if they got him a run, they'd win game 7 and the series. Brooklyn actually came back from an 0-2 deficit in that series against The New York Yankees.
Podres retired in '69 at age 36, with a 148-116 record with an ERA of 3.68. He didn't have the greatest numbers, but a former coach summed it up:
"I have said this many times: I've had many good pitchers on my teams during my career, including the best in the business in Sandy Koufax, and I am sure that all these pitchers will agree that if a club had to win one game, it would be (Johnny) Podres that would get the call." - Brooklyn Dodgers General Manager Buzzie Bavasi on Bloomberg.com.
The reason why this pains me guys, is because I sent Podres a card last summer and he sent it back signed.
We here at the BofA...will miss Johnny Podres.

Chargers stun Colts; Giants upend Cowboys
Wow. Wow. Wow.
I totally neglected to post anything about this stuff.
Regardless, I was wrong in only one of my picks, the Colts got stunned by a finely tuned Charger-machine yesterday. The Chargers go on now to face Tom Brady and the Patriots.
The Packers, however, do go on to face the Giants in Green Bay where hopefully there is a batshit crazy amount of snow.
Packers/Patriots in the Superbowl, that's my last pick...until the Superbowl...

Boyer is raring...and ready to go.
Blaine Boyer who only played in about 5 games last year out of the bullpen for the Bravos is ready to get back to business after having shoulder surgery...and Boyer said this himself.
Usually, I wouldn't post anything like this...because I'm a Braves fan, but I thought it was cool how he wrote it himself.

All that...and a bag of chips...
Yeah, alright.
The Pats rolled into a victory last night, as the Jags took away the long pass, Brady just disintegrated the Jaguar Defense by completely picking them apart with short, usually less than, 10 yard passes.
I honestly hate the guy, he's smug as hell, but he's the best quarterback in the league right now. Probably unbeatable. Can Manning and the Colts beat him, or if the Chargers squeeze out a victory...can they beat Brady and the Pats? Or Can the NFC beat them...with a little help from Farve and the Packers..Romo and the 'Boys, or Eli and the Giants?
Honestly, the futures looking pretty glum. Brady and the Pats are probably going to win it all, going 19-0 after all is said and done. Maybe it's for the best...
Anyway, I was writing this because of Reggie Nelson's comments. For those of you who don't know Reggie Nelson is a Rookie Safety for the Jacksonville Jags, and he said "He ain't all that...He's all right" and called it a "dump down game." Which in essence means exactly what I talked about previously, that he picked apart the defense of the Colts by adapting to their (The Jags') game plan. You can say he's "ain't all that" all you want, but obviously you forced him to do that "check down" offense, and he did it ...seemingly...without even trying.
So, Reggie Nelson could've just let it go, could've walked away, but he took the route of every fan (not a Pats fan...duh) in America and bad-mouthed Tom Brady...when you do something like that, you get burnt.
Duh.

Report: Braves acquire Kotsay from A's...
Well..not yet ..anyway, but they're on the verge of getting Mark Kotsay from the Oakland A's for Relief Pitcher Joey Devine. This bugs me, because Kotsay has had seriously bad fucking back problems for the last year and is 32-years old, while Joey Devine is 24-years old...and has a lot of road ahead...

Patriots outplay Jags move onto AFC championship...
I hate the Patriots. I hate the Patriots. I honestly, honestly do. I actually watched tonights game until the very end, and was just astonished that the Patriots nearly everytime they get the ball on the offensive side; They score a fucking touchdown. And when they don't Gostoadtsasdlkadkski misses a fieldgoal. I don't know. I really thought the Jags could take them out, I thought that if any team in the Playoffs could...it'd be them...
Packers took out the Seahawks today, so I'm one for two.
Packers will face the winner of Giants vs. Cowboys tomorrow.
Patriots will face the winner of Colts vs. Chargers tomorrow.
I'm calling Giants/Packers; Colts/Patriots
Packers over Giants in Green Bay...while it snows like holy hell.
Colts over Patriots in what could possibly be the best game of the entire year.
Packers v. Colts
Winner = Packers.
...I can only keep guessing.

Cards send Rolen to Jays for Glaus
This trade baffles me. Troy Glaus being sent to the Cardinals in exchange for Scott Rolen... Hmm...I don't know. Both of them haven't played to potential in years, so therefore it might actually be an even trade.
Then again, why even bother?

Marion Jones: Going to the big house
Marion Jones was sentenced to 6 months in prison for lying under oath about steroids; she asked a Federal Judge for leniancy, but was denied that.
This makes you wonder about Barry Bonds and his lying to the Grand Jury. . . will he get 6 mos or more?

Boy Scout thwarts assassination attempt.
I was just kidding about the Merit Badge for Courage thing, I would expect him to get a Merit Badge made of $100 dollar bills...and a trip to a strip club for him and twelve of his closest Boy Scout Buddies. Regardless little Mohammed Jaisham Ibrahim, saved President of Maldines Maumoon Gayoom when an assassin jumped on stage with a knife wrapped in a flag. This moron kid jump in front of the attacker getting his hand all cut up and shit. Stupid douche;
Tell me something? If you were getting award from George Bush, say you're finally getting that Medal of Honor for winning Call of Duty 4 (you fuckin' geeks) and you're standing there in full nerd attire (a pair of shorts, sandals with socks, and a shirt that has "Excite Bite" on it, or something ...sorry Jewish) and you see an Assassin jump on stage and get ready to shoot the President. . . Would you a.) Jump in front of bullet b.) Run like holy fuck, fuck. or c.) Give the assassin your wallet.
The answer(s) are/is: b and c.
Firstly you're going to toss you're wallet at the assassin and say that he/she can kill you later. Then you're going to run like a bat out of hell. You're not going to jump in front of a bullet/knife/machete. There's just no fucking way.
this is the original article; I specifically like the part where the writer Aaron Hotfelder goes:
"That is going to be one bad-ass merit badge."
Douche Chill...

McFadden arrested....then set free!
Darren McFadden, a Heisman Trophy runner up, was arrested and then released early Thursday after being involved in a "Rowdy Scene" at a piano bar in Arkansas.
This comes after McFadden was under furious allegations of being given shit while in college, like cars, and Nintendo Wii's and Houses, and shit.

Roberts to be dealt to the Chi-Cubs?
Apparently there is a deal in the works that will send Brian Roberts, second baseman of the Baltimore Orioles to the Chicago Cubs for Sean Marshall, Sean Gallagher, and Ronny Cedeno. This comes after Brian Roberts was named in the Mitchell Report (Re-pour).
Whatever happened to being a man?
From Fark.com -- "Seahawks kicker to wear heated pants during Saturday's game in Green Bay to keep his vagina warm." Double-take. Are you serious? Would a kicker really need heated pants? He's the kicker for God's sake. YOU'RE A FOOTBALL PLAYER. Grow some balls.

The Last Days of Tony Harris...
First of all, I honestly didn't know about this. I didn't know that Tony Harris former Basketball star was found dead after disappearing for two weeks. This E-Ticket article via ESPN.com gives you the entire story; and it's a fantastic read. Truly. I mean, I read the Bo Jackson one a while back and it was great, but this one deserves read if only for the memory of Tony Harris.
Olga Kurylenko is the second ..new .. Bond 22 girl!
This chick isn't really as hot as Gemma Arterton, or I can't find a good picture, but this one should do her some justice anyway.
Pregnancy triggers huge ratings for Spears Jr.
Jamie Lynn Spears is sharing in the wealth of being an eratic mess, her pregnancy has bolstered an outstanding 7.3 million viewers of her show Zoey 101 and I will tell you why:
Guys dig pregnant chicks. Especially hot pregnant chicks. And No, I'm not calling Jamie Lynn Spears hot, because that would be wronger than anything I've ever done before, but this is the way the male mind thinks. There are a lot of perverts out there who dig a pregnant chick, and Jamie Lynn Spears being preggers is no exception. She's young (really young you creep-o's) and cute, and pregnant and guys are sick fucking dudes.
I'm not that sick.
Once and a while I do entertain the thought of a chick with a horse.
Yeah, right.

Goose gets the call.
You might have no idea what this means, but if you're a baseball fan, you do. Rich "Goose" Gossage, just got voted into the Hall of Fame. Which means he'll join the likes of Cal Ripkin, Mantle, Gwynn, Nolan Ryan, etc.
Plus, I waited nearly 3 months for him to send me back that card signed, and he did ...signed.
EDIT: The card was sent on 7/20/07 which means it took nearly 6 mos.
Fuckall.

Boy glues self to bed, to avoid school.
You know, I think everyone is just pissed they didn't think of it first. Diego wasn't really in a rush to get back to school so the little idiot glued himself to his bed frame. He only got to school a couple of hours late.
Here's the link.

Night Two of NFL's Wild Card Weekend:
Giants beat up on the Bucs, 24-14 while the Chargers fought hard to beat the Titans 17-6. The Giants/Bucs game was good, however the Chargers/Titans game was complete and utter bore-fest. It was 6-0 at the half (which is when I stopped watching).

San Diego Chargers vs. Indianapolis Colts
NFC
New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys
Seattle Seahawks vs. Green Bay Packers

New "Bond 22" Girl.
Gemma Arterton has been cast in the so-far-untitled Bond 22 starring Daniel Craig as the British Playboy. She's actually rather hot, I must say. Casino Royale I thought, was a pretty fantastic flick, and that anything with Craig seems to be awesome. Therefore Bond 22 is already awesome.
So. There.
Here's the Variety piece with the Arterton chick.

Once a drunk, always a drunk.
I don't really give a shit what Lindsay Lohan does. I find it humorous that you're in the limelight, yet you can't realize that it's a terribly bad idea to swig champagne when you're like two months sober (probably not).
Lindsay Lohan, who gives Long Islanders a bad fucking name, was seen swigging Champagne from a bottle on New Years Eve in Italy. First of all, I don't give a fuckall about this, but seriously Italy on New Years? Fuck you, you cunt-bag whore. If you're celebrating New Years, you do this in the US of Fucking A. Not to say that Foreigners aren't allowed to celebrate New Years or New Years Eve, but it's so fucking cliche for a Hollywood Princess to be celebrating shit like this in a country where she's not libel to get caught drinking like a fucking pirate.
Fuck you Lindsay Lohan, and fuck you Dina Lohan. An abortion would've been nice.
Other titles for this post included:
Fuck you Lindsay Lohan, and fuck you Dina Lohan.
An Abortion Would've Been Nice.
"I know who killed me" sucked a black cock.
Once you've gone drunk, you forget the rest of whatever it is you were doing.
Lindsay Lohan dies in plane crash!
Etc, Etc, Etc.

Losman wants out of Buffalo.
And so would I...after the way The Bills treated QB JP Losman who wouldn't want out of Buffalo? Seriously. Losman actually had a better percentage passing then his replacement, Rookie Trent Edwards, but was benched in his favor. Sure, the Bills are trying out things to help them win, it's not working though, and that is the problem.
Where would Losman fit? Minnesota for one. The Vikings have a great run game with Adrian Peterson and Chester Taylor, if Taylor leaves...still a great running attack. What the Vike's need to do next season is draft a couple of Wide outs, because what they have now, just isn't cutting it.
Where else? The New York Jets, for one. I know it's a long shot, but since I still believe that Pennington is going to the Vikings, Losman has a good chance of going to the Jets (for a draft pick). The Jets have an array of wide out threats and a decent O-Line. If Chad goes, so goes the second reign of L. Coles, but that leaves Jericho Cotchery, Brad Smith, and Chansi Stuckey. Three guys who are quick and versatile, and Brad Smith can run an end around like no one's business. Losman to the Jets, even for a year, makes a lot of sense.

Obama wins Iowa caucuses.
Holy crap. Who would've thought that Barack Obama would be on the winning end of something in the Democratic party. He did, however, win the Iowa caucuses yesterday (Thursday) with Mike Huckabee in second. Huckabee leads the votes on the Republican side, and Obama on the Democratic side.
Eff you Hillary Clinton
Eff you Hillary Clinton
Cards ink Clement
Another shocking post-Cub signing. First Prior now the oft-injured Matt Clement goes to the Cardinals. The breakdown of the deal is not known, but it's probably incentive based.

G.I. J.O.E takes on a cast.
We already knew that Ray Park was cast as Snake Eyes in the big budget Steven Sommers directed GI JOE coming out eventually, but did you know that Rachel Nichols and Sienna Miller will be playing Scarlett O'Hara and The Baroness respectively. And that Sam Worthington is in talks for a role? They've cast Heavy Duty, Breaker, but no Duke yet.
That's some awesome, awesome shit.
That's some awesome, awesome shit.
Report: Yank's to Clemens "Go Screw!"
That's right. I think we kind of knew it was going to happen. The Yankees don't mind when their people are taking steroids, I guess, like Sheffield or Giambi, but when it comes down to Roger Clemens who ultimately became a bust last year, and you spend a ridiculous amount of money to bring the guy in when half the season was over, it probably puts a bad taste in your mouth. I could be wrong.
Hoooooowever, Hank Steinbrenner has said that the Yankees have no intention of signing Roger Clemens....ever? I don't know about ever. I'm sure when half the season is over, they can sign him to a deal worth something like $37 gazillion dollars.

The A's are stupid-heads.
I don't know what to think anymore. I just know that I want the A's to trade Rich Harden to the Braves. It boggles my mind that they shipped Nick Swisher to the White Sox for a couple of prospects. Nick Swisher has been a big fan favorite in Oakland for the last couple of years, along with Haren, and Chavez, and Crosby and there's two of those guys missing already. How much sooner before they ship Chavez somewhere where he doesn't have to be a powerhouse to a team that's craving a fantastic 3rd Basemen or oft-injured Bobby Crosby, who hasn't played well for a couple of years now.
I don't know, I just find it funny that the A's are rebuilding again. It would be amazing to see them win 80 games this year, although, I'm fairly certain they're going to die a slow and painful death.
GO BRAVES!!!!

Fins renew Ricky Williams' contract.
Something that shocks me is that Weed-Fiend Ricky Williams gets another shot, while Cam Cameron gets fired. I know that going 1-15 is not good, but Ricky Williams has had more strikes than any fucking football player ever.
Ricky Williams is staying put in Miami care of Bill Parcells.
Ricky Williams is staying put in Miami care of Bill Parcells.
Dolphin's put the kabosh on Cameron.
I'm sure they were thinking about doing it, it's not like you really have a strong case when your team goes 1-15, look at Rich Kotite who with the Jets in 1996 went 1-15 and then was succeeded by Pete Carroll (who went to USC and was then replaced by Bill Parcells, who actually is doing all this). So, it comes full circle when you think about it.
The Dolphins put the ax on Cam Cameron after his team has the atrocious feeling of going 1-15. I am sure, nearly positively (almost) that Cam Cameron will coach somewhere else. Then again, Kotite's last season was that 1-15 romping the Jets took.
Which Quarterback was at the helm? For the Jets it was Frank Reich (shudder the thought), for the Dolphins it was John Beck, Cleo Lemon...who names their kid Cleo.. fuck the heck ..., and some other guy named Trent Green (kidding of course).
The Dolphins sucked this year. Downright sucked balls, it's no wonder their entire coaching staff got the ax.

Definitely, Maybe trailer
You know, I really dig Ryan Reynolds, I honestly think very highly of him. I think that he would make a good Deadpool. This flick Definitely, Maybe though is a chick flick. It looks funny and cute, but it's still a chick flick.
Check out the trailer.
It also stars Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks, Isla Fisher, and that little girl from Little Miss Sunshine Abigail Breslin.

Yes folks, it's finally here. It could've been here a while ago and I just missed it, because, I've been fucking busy, get off my back!
Sheesh.

If this is anywhere as good as the gn, then it's going to fucking rock your pretty little socks off.

I did watch Atonement and I have to say that it was a phenomenal fucking flick, and I sincerely recommend it.

Korean Boxer Choi declared brain dead.
Yes, that's right. A boxer declared brain dead. Aren't they all brain dead for wanting to get their faces smashed and smushed. I don't know. I feel bad for the Korean guy, but for what he was doing, it's pretty much the right way to die.
He won the bout by the way.
What the fuck do you get if you lose?!
