oh cmon now for a friday afternoon, she’s plain
February 1st, 2008 at 3:49 pm
Mmmmm…I like me some Sophie Bush.
February 1st, 2008 at 3:49 pm
I’m with Irish. That is not Friday material
February 1st, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Haha if that 50 story is true that is classic.
Maybe he was having a fit of roid rage.
February 1st, 2008 at 3:51 pm
I’m surprised you havent heard of WingBowl, TBL.
Been a moniker here for 15 years. I thought it had gained national attention.
February 1st, 2008 at 3:53 pm
Does anyone else think Mike Silver is a bit sad? The “I’m Hot Cause I’m Fly” bit, the constant pandering to players…he seems like your everyday jock-sniffer to me. And by the way, the metaphors on that link were so stupid. A Paris Hilton joke? God, I hope Construda was being sarcastic.

Anyone who follows the Senate to any degree knows that Arlen Spector is the kind of guy who goes against what everyone else is thinking and saying just so he can be different and grab headlines. In 2004 after Bush was reelected, and the Senate Judiciary Committee Chairmanship was about to pass to Spector he pissed off fellow Republicans by saying that he would not ask judicial nominees their positions on Roe v. Wade. He nearly got his chairmanship yanked from him by the Republican leadership, but he retracted eventually and in the meantime basked in the spotlight like a puppy that just shit on the rug in front of his new owners.

“How do you like them apples?” Awesome!
February 1st, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Arlen Specter is basically a more benign version of John McCain. He’s somehow existed his entire career sticking his thumb in the eye of Reagan/Bush conservatives (e.g., voted against Bork, against impeachment of Bubba, votes pro-choice, etc.). Pennsylvanians–and President Bush–had an opportunity to ditch this guy a few years back but Specter (with Bush’s backing!) beat his conservative challenger.
Those outside of PA may also remember him as the co-author of the “single-bullet theory”.
In short, a douche.

Perhaps he didn’t want VD. It’s a proven scientific fact that if you get within 10 feet of Paris Hilton, you get 10 - 15 different types of VD.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:04 pm
I am all for Specter pushing on this. Seriously needs to get rid of that direct tv exclusive deal on nfl package. And our tax payer money is going to the NFL so we do have a right to know. Look up how your teams stadium was paid for and what tax breaks were signed into the sweetheart leases.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Good Friday PM roundup. Except I still don’t understand the Sophia Bush thing and I know I’m not alone. I keep hearing people say, “Dude, that picture doesn’t do her justice.” But you can only hear that said about someone so many times before you give up on expecting to find them attractive. Sorry Sophia Bush, you’re dead to me.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:09 pm
I am all for a more extensive look into spygate. A coach was fined $500,000 and a FIRST ROUND PICK! In the NFL that is no slap on the wrist. Whatever they were doing was pretty major and now the tapes were destroyed! That is more than fishy to me.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Will KSU fans remember that Whitlock article in 5 years when it’s all gone to hell in the “Little Apple”?
I doubt IU fans would have remembered the same type of article about Davis when they were swilling the Kool Aid after the ‘02 FF run. Me included.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:15 pm
@ MAgs
we dont need to pay Arlen Spector to do anymore crazy shit with his time. He’ll probably come up with a single video theory.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Hef - I like this picture of Sophia Bush. Killer legs, IMHO.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:18 pm
Mags…i agree with you that its a big issue, but it should(have) been handled by the NFL.
please don’t waste our tax dollars on sports. it angers me to no end that there are inner city schools in cleveland that have a 25% graduation rate, and our country’s leaders are talking about fucking steroids in baseball and shit like this.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:19 pm
@Gonzo
What exactly do we need to pay Alen Spector to do?
February 1st, 2008 at 4:20 pm
@spencer096
You think a conservative is going to do that?
February 1st, 2008 at 4:20 pm
I’d punch a cripple to have a beer with Matt Damon.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:25 pm
That Damon video is absolutely outstanding, especially given his history on the Kimmel show.
If neither were famous, I’d be willing to bet that the white chick in the Howard pic would get as many looks as Ms. Bush.
@KC - I heard it was 25 feet.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:28 pm
@ Mags
we need to stop paying him period. Would he be in office for 45 years if it wasn’t for his “Single Bullett Theory” ?
February 1st, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Mags…to be honest, i have such little faith in our leaders, that it doesnt matter if they were a conservative, liberal, green party, etc.
its just sad in general.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:29 pm
Casper the Ghost doesn’t deserve to be objectified.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:30 pm
Well said, ATLsportsfan. Silver is pathetic.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:31 pm
Wow - that Damon video was spectacular.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:33 pm
@spencer 096
I agree 100% I would really question whether anybody gives a shit about inner city schools as far as this group of “leaders” goes.
@Gonzo
I really don’t have any idea what the flying shit they do with all of my money besides spend it. On what? I have no idea. So might as well make Bellicheck crap his pants a little bit as far as I am concerned. I would rather that than another bomb that will be dropped on another civilian.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:34 pm
Sophia Bush is very, very hot. No reason other than we’re fans.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Even in a hair tied back, prudish look I fucking love Sophia Bush.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:41 pm
I guess it’s nice to have a pleasant picture of Bush rather than a pic that might reveal some Bush. Not bad TBL. Kudos.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:41 pm
Mags…its just not the schools, its just american citizens in general. unless its costing a guy who lines pockets some of that contribution money, its not an issue at all.
eh, im just salty. ill always be pissed at the govt until they legalize weed (like the fucking should. you wanna stop the ballooning budget? fucking legalize herb and tax it. god fucking damnit).
February 1st, 2008 at 4:42 pm
The Roundup pics and PM pics have never shown up on my work computer, not sure why. I always have to wait until I get home to check out the talent o’ the day.
So even considering I can’t see the pic right now, Sophia Bush is amazing, and this pic is awesome.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:43 pm
Spence - $250 Million went to Cleveland Browns Stadium, a deal announced by the Mayor after he announced his school budget reduction plan. Mayor White was voted in again.
February 1st, 2008 at 4:48 pm
yea, i know. its really fucking gross. especially since al lerner was so filthy rich, he could have footed the bill himself.
still, jane campbell could have done something, yet the problem got worse and worse. and jackson is a puppet too. in 25 years, id be surprised if cleveland wasnt a ghost town.
February 1st, 2008 at 5:35 pm
if they (Specter, et al.) do dig deeper into this tape situation, can fans handle when they discover the truth that their team does the same thing the patriots got caught doing?

Yes, please go back to posting the usual pictures of the crack whores that seem so popular.
February 2nd, 2008 at 11:54 am
Sophia Bush is not as hot as Megan Fox, thats for damn sure. That Matt Damon Sarah Silverman video is so frickin funny!
February 2nd, 2008 at 11:57 am
