Dedicated to the premise that life would be better if we all took ourselves a little less seriously.

Gheorghe looks a little like "Poochie" in that photo.
gheorghe looks like alex ovechkin in that photo.
with a little corey hart thrown in for the kids.
I do not approve of the tilted brim look. Hopefully he didn't do that on purpose.
i'm sure he bumped his head on the ceiling, knocking the hat askew.
So, once again I realized the Oscars are upon us and I know nothing about the movie films involved...a question, in two parts:
*Guesses on the movies nominated for Best Picture? (as it turns out I actually knew four of them)
*How many of those movies have you actually seen (me - 1)?
All of them....No Country will win. It's the best film I've seen in 10 years...
There Will Be Blood is also freaking brilliant...any other year and it would have won Best Picture I think. Except maybe last year because the Academy wanted to get the monkey off Scorsese's back...my two cents.
Dennis, while you're here, any comment on your donkey Dookies?
My vote would be for There Will Be Blood...though I still haven't seen No Country yet...
another from the holy blessed stink on toast files, courtesy of your william and mary tribe:
w&m needs one more win this season to clinch the school's first consecutive .500 seasons in 23 years. bruce parkhill's 84-85 cagers finished 16-12 to cap a stretch of 5 consecutive non-losing seasons.
I really wish everyone could see the suit Skip Bayless had the balls to wear.
is it irvinian?
And then some...
Do you think Bayless stole it out of Merrill Hoge's closet? That redneck is the worst dressers I've ever seen.
(Yes. He is worse than Irvin. And Sanders.)
ESPN First Take - All the Larry the Cable Guy you'll ever need.
that sounds like a g:tb post assignment, hmmm, hmmm, timmy?
Just to make Whitney jealous...I just received a free ticket to go see NOFX tonight...score.
I have no clue who or what NOFX is.
Thomas knows nothign of the punk scene, eh? Think along the lines of your comment to Rob about Social Distortion ("the seminal punk band").
My personal fave punk band of all time. Prolific, talented and decidely anti-establishment (especially in their younger days).
I actually only know a little of NOFX, but what I have heard I enjoy. There was an album a while back called something like White Trash, a Heeb and a Bean that I listened to -- and it was as much ska as straight-ahead punk. Good suff.
Enjoy, Mark. You've earned it after a long, hard week of our inane comments at Gheorghe.
My apologies - to me the only punk band that even matters is The Misfits.
The original title of that album was "White Trash, Two Kikes and a Spic"...
NOFX's early stuff is the best but they've got a really large catalogue at this point (almost 25 years). Punk in Drublic is a great album with which to get acquainted with them.
My favorite story about them (and their are many) is that they threatened to sue MTV many, many years ago (when MTV showed videos) because MTV had aired one of their videos. Had a cease and desist letter sent out and all. Not b/c they didn't want their video airing, because they fucking hated MTV.
Alright, so I tuned into First Take to get a gander at Skip's suit. And, he looks like a cross between Bob Huggins and MC Skat Cat.
I thought it looked like a suit designed after the Pop-Tarts Chocolate Chip Cookie design.
And if you saw Skip's suit, I sure as hell hope you saw Larry the Cable Guy's appearance.
How the fuck that guy is famous is beyond me.
I will check it out, Mark. Thanks for the rec.
And Teejay, using the expression "the only band that matters" and discussing a punk outfit other than The Clash is a bit like calling Malta the land of the free and the home of the brave.
NOFX? That's awesome. Reminds me of high school. Them, 311 and Pennywise.
Oh, and classic rock.
Do Sid Vicious and the boys get no credit?
Not much. Seminal for style over substance, one great album, and the right place at the right time. Otherwise, no staying power, no depth, not the only band that matters ever.
And Sid was a sidelight. His predecessor played bass on the album, he was an enjoyable but utterly talentless Malcolm McLaren puff piece addition for effect. Everything Sid Vicious is indicative of what takes the Pistols out of The Clash's realm.
And no, I don't have unreasonably strong opinions on this at all. Of course not.
...And that is why we have Whitneypedia...
Do all you old people really love The Clash that much?
And yes, the Red Bull IV I had last night has me up at 8am.
the fact that you ask that question gives me great concern for the future of our civilization.
Jerome says robot wives are the future.
Siena and Albany getting Bracket Buster love?
Sweet.
Is this Mike Jarvis on MASN doing the Hoyas game? He is fucking miserable.
I do not love The Clash and I feel old. The Pixies are better in that genre, IMHO. The Pixies may not count as 100% punk rock to punk rock aficionados, but they sound like punk rock to me. Unlike Jake Barnes and bullfighting, I don't have much aficion for punk rock.
oh, man. somebody better lock this thread before whitney sees that comment. otherwise, we're gonna have to read a 3,000 word rebuttal. and he likes the pixies.
vcu looked like dogshit and still managed to win at akron.
I realize TJ is in charge of the YouToobs, but this is entertaining in spots.

tribe going ugly early against loyola.
My opinions about punk rock are about as solid and well-founded as Bill Simmons' meditations on hiphop.
mason playing their way into a nit bid.
In case anybody was wondering (doubtful), last night's show was great. NOFX brought it, as always, and No Use For A Name was damn fine as well. And, it true punk fashion, I got so blitzed that I ended up puking in the parking lot of a bar later on in the evening.
I'd almost forgotten what it was like to be 19...
Gus Johnson is doing the Army Navy game...attaboy CBS.
Maryland killing themselves as well.
I'm not sure why but CBS' decision to broadcast the Army-Navy basketball game pisses me off, but it does. Who the fuck cares about these teams?
And Oregon's unis are a fucking disaster.
Why the fuck are Brent and Lavs sucking on Rick Neuheisel's balls?
You beat me to it TJ.
CBS employs both Gus Johnson and Bill Raftery and we get stuck with Nantz & Packer every goddamned Final Four.
I remember a time when St Johns/Duke would occassionally be a game.
St Johns is a mess these days.
Those Duke - St. Johns games from the Artest/Barkley era were fantastic.
it occurs to me that the tribe will be getting a pissed off mason squad on wednesday. i don't think our presence will make the difference, teej.
creighton/oral roberts is fun.
it looks like ucla is playing against a bunch of goth kids.
Oh fuck - are we getting Vitale for the game tonight?
That was what I think it was, wasn't it?
JaJuan, not a name.
Jerry and I are trying to figure out the three teams in all of D1 who are worse than Memphis in FT shooting...
What Beasley and Walker are doing right now is absurd.
I may be late to the party here, but I just saw Rod Strickland on the Memphis bench. I used the Google to learn that he was hired as the "Student-athlete development manager."
Not a joke.
I don't know if I would trust him to be anything other than "Date Rape Instructor" for my team. Way to set an ethical tone, Calipari!
Three more comments:
1) Glennfiddich 12 Year is fantastic. I had a half-pint of it during a viewing of Michael Clayton with the wifey.
2) Michael Clayton seems to be a very good movie, but it's very hard to figure out when you're drunk. I'm not sure why they decided Tilda Swinton needed to look like Clarice Starling.
3) There's 5 minutes left in the Memphis-Tennessee game and I'm not sexed up on either team. How is Memphis not a carbon copy of every Cincinnati thug team from the 1990's?
Make a fucking free throw.
say what you will about bruce pearl, but his was a well-prepared and well-coached team last night. they deserved that win.
caa goes an 'eh' 7-5 in bracketbusters play, losing the one that really mattered for two-bid consideration.
Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is great blog. A great read. Raja Poker Online
