This is Division I Blogging!
I thought I could take a week off, but Dan Hawkins told me otherwise. Dick.
- Pitchers and catchers arriving as we speak. The Dice-man is already down in Ft Myers, Manny will be there sometime in June, only one question remains - where is the Sox closer? I'll tell you where he is - in Tampa, wearing a pinstriped #42 jersey. Wait, that's next year, when the Sox are reloading to defend their second title in four years (and third title in 89 years). I can't believe Rivera is getting the Red Sox treatment. You know, wait as long as possible to talk to/extend your best and most popular players. I can see it now: Rivera in the 8th, Devern Hansack in the 9th.
- How bout the Chargers bungling their coaching situation? Sure it would've been tough to win anything with Marty at the helm, but is it gonna be any easier with Jim Mora Deuce working the sidelines? Or Norv Turner? Way to leave yourselves some options SD! Too bad Lane Kiffin is already taken, he would've been perfect. However, isn't that job kind of like taking over the Bulls in 1990? That's a stacked-ass squad right there, all they need is someone not to get in the way (the anti-Marty).
- How dumb do the Cowboys feel now, though? I would love to see them demote or axe Wade Philips and hire Marty, just to see the shitstorm that follows. I would also like to see the Chargers interview a ton of people, only to realize that the best coach available is Marty Schottenheimer and then give him a 6 year deal with control over personnel.
-Friday Night Lights: pretty good show. Watched it for the first time last night and it seems like a keeper. The guy playing the coach does a pretty nice job as do most of the kids. This show gets the Trout seal of approval. I would have more to say specifically about the episode, but I'm guessing nobody watches this show. Get on that shit; definitely one of the better shows on a network right now.
- But not as good as the Hills. Troubling shit is abrew in the hills of Beverly (or Hollywood or East LA or wherever these hills are) and our man Spencer is responsible. He's my favorite character for sure (aside from Heidi, but you already knew that), but if he breaks up Heidi and LC - really the Manny and Papi of television - I'm gonna be pissed. I don't have a problem with this as long as Heidi remains a prominent part of the show. But if Spencer and Heidi no longer hang out with LC, does that mean the entire show will revolve around LC and Brody discussing how much they love each other's smiles, ears, left forearms, etc? Somebody get Liz Gateley on the phone.
- A prediction for the White Rapper Show: John Brown, aka King of the Burbs aka Ghetto Revivalist, is actually gonna take home the check when all this shit is said and done. He's consistently the best now that Sullee is gone, which I guess is kind of like saying Greg Vaughn is the all-time greatest Devil Ray. But still, this clown is gonna win $100K. After earlier applying the reasoning that "nobody is watching Friday Night Lights, thus no episode highlights," I'm not sure this blurb is justified. Whatever, you know you want as much Type Slow as you can get, so you live with it.
- I guess the one person who should be happy about this whole Tim Hardaway deal is Dan Hawkins. If Timmy wasn't such an idiot, we'd still be making fun of the Hawk. Oh well. Thanks for the best rant since Denny Green. By the way, if you haven't already seen this, check this noise out. Better than Hawkins, better than Denny, and right there with the great Jim Mora.
- Smalls, er Dick, where you at? This is the Big 12!

There's no way Rivera is going to the Red Sox. There is a slim chance that he'll walk, but why would he? He is one of those Yankees that will forever be in pinstripe lore no matter what he does in the next few seasons.
If he goes to the Red Sox, the rivalry will become a joke, completely contrived by the fans. It was borderline absurd when Damon left for the Bronx. Rivera is one of those guys that killed the Sox time and time again. More importantly, beating the unflappable Rivera in '04 was monumental for the franchise. If Rivera signed with the Sox, I'd be convinced that the players on both teams do not feel at all compelled to remain loyal adversaries to their rival opponent. If Rivera left, maybe Bernie would sign a minor league deal with the Sox, too. Once you got those two, you might as well pencil Jeter in at short for the Sox in 2012. Somehow, I think Scott Boras is to blame here. He always is.
When I worked with NBC, I interviewed Rivera. He is a classic Yankee personality: straight-up tight-ass. He would get along with no more than 1 guy on the Red Sox (I am, of course, talking about JD Drew - that would be a hell of a staring contest). Actually, now that I think about it, Rivera has gay potential. If he came out of the closet, would people start calling him HoMo Rivera?
I don't know if Spencer is the highlight of that show for me, but he's definitely a d-bag. Heidi has absolutely illustrated how girls will keep letting guys back in who have dicked them over (also see: LC with Jason).
Not to say you're Amaechi or anything, but do you watch Dance Life too, on right after The Hills? That one guy Teddy is a dating one of the Pussy Cat Dolls. Not the hot one that you see everywhere, but a blond chick. He got upset that she was in town for 1 day before leaving to tour in Asia, but had to work that entire day, and her responce was great, "Sorry babe, you know how it is..." And then he didn't even get any ass when he dropped her off for the night! What a hooker
I always flip it over to the white rapper show post-hills, although i have seen an episode or two of the dancing show. its actually not entirely unwatchable, but its still like the 85th best show on mtv. isnt there a scene in every show where one of the people from the show just goes to an empty gym or dance studio with a boom box and starts dancing their ass off for no apparent reason? It's always impeccably filmed and completely pointless.
you know what show sucked at first, but is kinda coming around after a few episodes? maui fever. not all that bad, especially considering that i'd rather watch a test pattern than the first couple episodes again.
you know what show sucked and kept on sucking the whole way through? 24/7. An out and out failure. holy shit that was bad.
man, jd drew. i really hope he doesnt suck, but i have a feeling he's gonna join paul o'neill and scott brosius to form the unholy trinity of most hated athletes ever. i can see him putting up troy o'leary numbers and getting booed mercilessly. has anyone ever gone onto the DL citing depression? Not that JD won't already have some other injury like a hang nail to land him on the DL. here's hoping he takes an izzy alcantara crane kick to the chest if he sucks.
remember when rivera electrocuted somebody in his pool in panama?
