The Roundup: The Second Time Is Nice Too

January 6th. 2008, 10:31am

I’m contractually obligated to use a picture of someone from The O.C. once a weekend. Luckily, you can’t possibly complain about this choice. Day 2 of the great experiment begins with Autumn Reeser.

Hey remember that episode of Saved By The Bell where the gang put on a hip-hop production of Snow White? We need more of Mario Lopez rapping in our lives.

Yesterday went pretty smoothly. Don’t worry though, I’m mentally preparing myself for things to fall apart today.

As with yesterday, keep sending tips my way - they make this a lot easier. (alumnigonzo@gmail.com)

Huge day today. Wild Card doubleheader. American Gladiators premiere. The Wire season premier. I’m literally shaking with excitement. I’ve been pitching an American Gladiators revival for years. I have no proof of this, but I’m sure you believe me.

I don’t think ESPN Radio’s Jason Smith or his mother wrote his Wikipedia page. (Wikipedia)

All I can say is that it’s a good thing this wasn’t at a Huckabee event - This might have ended in roundhouse kicks. (Yahoo! News)

USF just won’t let up. Now they’ve got a hot cheerleader to show off - notice the kid on the right who is absolutely entranced. (Busted Coverage)

After a 2 pick, 1 fumble night, I’m pretty sure this song should go top 40. (YouTube)

A season the Redskins and their fans will never forget. (Scott Van Pelt Style)

QB play yesterday was godawful. David Garrard is a black Eli Manning who can run.

He’s right about Jason Smith you know. Except perhaps the Mel Gibson thing. His show is basically him telling us which New York teams he pulls for and then talking about them for the rest of the program.

So really, he’s not that much different from any other “national” ESPN celebrity. Or maybe they don’t have too many Syracuse grads and/or New York-raised personalities

Jason Smith is really bad. I’ll never forget the time he was going on and on about KG, ‘I guarantee that KG will be in a Lakers uniform next year. There’s no way that the Laker GM doesn’t get this deal done’. Two weeks later KG was with Boston. The show is horrible.

in his defense, jason smith has been saying Georgia is the best college football team for the last 3 months. unfortunately for him, they sucked until the last one.

even a blind squirrel finds a nut.

Isn’t Jason Smith the dude with the unibrow in those incessant eHarmony commercials?

Bless you for the Autumn Reeser picture.

I’ve got nothing else to say.

Maybe its just me, but I find a lot of the material Jason Smith does on his program is lifted from blogs (only done worse).

@CRM - American Gladiators was due for a comeback. The problem is they’re dumbing it down, and I feel, the announcers are gonna suck. Are we getting Hulk Hogan or Terry Bollea as an announcer. Either way, its gonna suck. If the producers were smart they would have gone after Jesse “The Body” Ventura as the ‘analyst.’ (How’s that for dirty?)
