Weekend Wrap Up

I've been having some laptop issues again so sorry that I have fallen behind a bit. However, since I already had much of this post written I demand that you read it and pretend it's all brand new information to you. Here we go....


Novak Djokovic won his first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open this weekend beating France's Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in straight sets. I was able to catch the tape delayed showing on Sunday and yowsers....Novak is not a popular guy Down Unda but he seems okay with that....



The Florida Gators anniliated the 14th-ranked Vanderbilt Commodores at the O-Dome on Sunday afternoon 86-64. They were winning by a score of 36-4 at one point early in the first half when absolutely everything was dropping for the young Gators. All five starters scored in the double digits and Walter Hodge had a career-high 19 points. The win pushed the Gators back into the AP Rankings (20) for the first time since November. They are off until Saturday when the travel to Arkansas for another big SEC game. The Gators were on a big momentum roll after rattling off three straight wins. They now sit a half point ahead of Tennessee in SEC East division.


In other college b-ball news, Pitt fell five spots to 18 after a horrible 77-64 loss at home to last place Rutgers on Saturday. Coach Dixon reportedly put the players through a rigorous contact practice this afternoon to prepare them for #18 Villanova tomorrow night. In contrast, the Lady Panthers continued their winning ways taking care of St. Johns and Rutgers last week. Along with powerhouse UConn and Rutgers they remain undefeated in the Big East and are ranked 14th in the AP poll, their highest ranking ever.

Not usually a big ice skating fan but this guy is cute and reportedly straight so I have a chance...and he won the US Figure Skating Championship on Sunday. Therefore, I will give him a shout out....welcome Evan Lysacek.


While most people were concerned with Tom Brady's walking boot and his brusque manner with the media, I'm most flabbergasted that he was taking Gisele CARNATIONS! I know he took a pay cut and all that but seriously Tom! If he would have watched Sex in the City (you know, since his baby mama was on it) he would know carnations are nothing more than filler flowers.

Speaking of Tom Brady, we are well into Super Bowl week. It's amazing how apathetic one can become when their team is not involved.

Staying on our loser boyfriend roll,
check this out. All those Romo dumps Jessica rumors appear to be bullshizz as Tony serenaded Jess with a little Journey last night. Not sure what was more entertaining...the entire club calling Tony the "p" word or Jessica looking completely uncomfortable being on stage. No wonder she can't make it as a singer.


Just when that little cheeseball Brody Jenner started to grow on me he totally ruins it by hooking up with Lohan. You just can't trust a guy who has anyone named "Brittany Canada whore" on their iPhone can ya? Apparently the paps were on a smoke break since no one actually got a picture of them "all over each other" or leaving the club together. That's him in the Nirvana-esque flannel. First Nicole Richie and now Lindsay....does he wait outside rehab or what? Ewwww wait....here's some video of them leaving, get this...The Box....insert your own joke here.


I suppose I should make mention of Brit-Brit since we are into Day 2 of some kind of intervention by her friends and family. I did see her pap boy toy Adnan Ghalib spilling the beans on Entertainment Tonight all weekend long. Apparently she broke down crying last night in the only way she knows how...in full view of the paparazzi. It's being reported that Daddy AND Mama Spears is involved along with her ever present Middle Eastern Posse. TMZ.com is live streaming from outside her home if you care.


UPDATE: She was out and about pre-invention for what else....some coffee. What she didn't have time to pick up a new puppy today? I wonder if during the next phase of the intervention they can tell her those freakin boots need to go.




Well, here's a little something to lift our spirits....New Kids on the Block may be reuniting! Well, we atleast have NKO since Jonathan(the "not as attractive" brother) and Danny (the ugly one) were not seen. The three were seen catching a flight to Orlando, otherwise known as Mecca to boy banders. Get out those oversized buttons, I smell a reality show!

In all seriousness I was in my heavy metal phas as New Kids took over the world so other than the played out "Step By Step" and "Hangin Tough" I am pretty unfamiliar with their music. Fortunately we have You Tube these days so I can gain a full appreciation of their musical genious.




This was an actual comment posted in response to this video:

"Nowadays many singers just have one or two good songs and is not a big problem. This album is excellent, just they needed a better promotion. Besides, Jon was exhausted. NKOTB was very succesfull and always would be."


You are so right eriestrema, so right.

Bad Newz for Vick...


  • As I am sure you already know from ESPN's round-the-clock coverage Michael Vick has been sentenced to 23 months in a Virginia prison for his participation in a dog fighting operations. Is he the worse criminal we have ever seen come through the NFL? No, but since I am a person who prefers dogs to people I am one of the last people he can expect sympathy from. But there is something so pathetic about the whole situation: his rise and fall, going broke and tarnished reputation. This guy had the #1 selling jersey in the league at one time. Money gets you a lot in this world but certainly it can't be substituted for good sense.

    Another comment regarding Vick....on the various displays of "support" his teammates displayed during their Monday Night Football loss last night. I can understand that they can still be his friend while not condoning his actions. However, the "FREE MIKE VICK" T-shirt receiver Roddy White was sporting underneath his jersey was a bit much to stomach. Look, I don't know what Joe Regular would have gotten as punishment but I know that choosing to be a public figure has it's pitfalls. Welcome back to reality Mike.


  • Here's a artcle by ESPN's John Clayton on what this means for Vick's future with the Atlanta Falcons and the NFL. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=clayton_john&id=3148767

  • One last thing...Vick's stats on CBSSportsline.com are presented by Jameson Whiskey. Seriously.


  • Speaking of dumb, rich people...it must be nice to have the kind of money where you can drop hundreds of dollars on boots like this because, does it really matter if you ever wear them?


  • The Hills had it's third season finale last night. Miss LC was hosting a viewing party at Area Nightclub in Hollywood. There was supposed to be some big announcement which I didn't catch on the After Show but of course I did learn earlier yesterday about the demise of Speidi but wait, now I hear they are still together and were having dinner together at Koi. Supposedly Speidi are shopping their own show. Word on the street: Teen Vogue no longer wants to be associated with the show. I guess the mag is finally doing well. What are they going to do about Whitney and LC's fake jobs?

  • And seriously...these games between Lauren and Brody are getting tired. Make a move somebody! I have to tell you...that Brody has really grown on me this season. And you know it will be great drama next season when Brody cheats on her with "Britany Canada Whore" or someone else off his contact list after about 3 weeks of "being exclusive".

  • Good news....ESPN's Gene Wojciehowski suggests Bradyisms to honor Tommy Butt Chin...sorry Gene, Stetson smells good on no one. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=3149274&sportCat=nfl&lpos=spotlight&lid=tab1pos2


  • I'm calling shenanigans on Campbell's Chunky Soup. Somehow ,for their Click for Cans promotion, the Packers have over 2 million votes. Last year Green Bay won with 958,023 votes with Indy and Pittsburgh not far behind. I think some people in Wisconsin have been messing with their cookies. Stop cheating....you're stealing from homeless shelters. Only a few days left to vote....oh and thanks to the lady in my office who sends out an e-mail asking "Are you feeling Chunky?" to encourage all 5 of the Jags fans in this place. It would probably be rude to thank her for reminding me to vote for my own team, huh? http://www.chunky.com/ClickForCansVote.aspx


  • Is Katie, excuse me Tom, KATE Holmes the oldest looking 28-year-old in the world or what? The Scientolotot is a cute though.

Douche Bag of the day...


I don't care if The Hills on MTV is as fake as Cowher's new teeth. That show is like crack and Spencer Pratt has to be the biggest DB on television right now.
