Sorry for the Paltrow overload, but yes, we’re looking forward to hopefully seeing Ironman this weekend. No link: Sports Business Daily is reporting that the contracts of Rob Dibble and Rodney Peete weren’t renewed, so if you loved them on the Best Damn Sports Show, tough darts.
UPDATE ON THE ASU CHEERLEADERS: ASU cheerleading is not being cut (thankfully), but rather “reassigned” to the director of the Marching Band, whatever that means. (USA Today)
Read this, and then take a shower to get the slime off. (LA Times)
There are plenty of splendid ideas on blogs. (Royals Review)
Why would Buck and McCarver need US Marshal protection? (Boston Globe)
Dale Davis, last spotted getting tasered in Miami, used to date Rob Lowe’s nanny, and he’s going to get called into court to testify, maybe because of the size of his schlong. (TMZ)
Oakland is gully – 94-year-old man shoots landlord. (SF Gate)
Lou Pinella nearly erupted last night after the SI jinxed kicked in. (Chicago Tribune)
Jenna Jameson parties with the Chelsea soccer team. (Hot Clicks)
Unless the Wiz win the next two. (Sporting Blog)
Was Ovechkin previously engaged to a tennis player? (Yahoo Sports)
Mike Bianchi in Orlando is driving the Magic bandwagon. (Life after Newhouse)
Jay Cutler has Type I diabetes. (Denver Post)
Unreal that the AP made a story out of D Wade and Star Jones sitting together at a tennis match, and then the Heat star saying last night they’re just friends. And blogs are dumbing everybody down? (AP via Fark)

And we all thought CRM was taking over the PM Roundup. I’m sure he would have had a couple nice Scarlet pictures. Too bad.

Yovani Gallardo tears his ACL and Kelvin Sampson signs on to be an assistant with the Bucks. Wonderful day here in Milwaukee.

Barkley and Smith were on their game last night going after D-Wade. Wade was in a lose lose situation. He looked guilty, even though he was being honest. very funny stuff.
May 2nd, 2008 at 3:59 pm
Did I slip into an alternate universe where NBA stars are bangin’ Star Jones?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:00 pm
@mizerle- very nice
the Life after Newhouse article was garbage
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:00 pm
That’s only if the Dbacks lose the series to the Mets this weekend.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:00 pm
Did Jenna Jameson bang so many dudes she morphed into a duck? Damn how the mighty have fallen.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Jolted the teen’s right testicle with a Taser stun gun.
what does that mean?

Fucking Gallardo.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Re: Cheerleaders– let me get this straight–the team whose job it is to wear skimpy outfits and look hot is getting cut because team members took pictures of themselves wearing skimpy outfits and looking hot?
I’m on-board with Gwyneth when she dresses like a normal person or like a movie star at the Oscars. I’m not on board when she tries to dress like a rocker chick.

are there any hookers here who need a good slapping? its friday afternoon and i just got out of a meeting…come on Mags…michigan sucks…bite, BITE.

I think my grandma once made an afghan that looks like Gwyneth’s dress.
At one time? Or total?

I was cruising along happily in the pics that mizerle linked up, then all of a sudden there I am looking at Lindsey Lohan’s nasty ginger ass. I almost puked on my laptop.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:07 pm
First Charles Barkley. Now Star Jones. What’s DWade’s obsession with chubby black guys?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:08 pm
@spence: Lay off Maggs. We’d hate to see him get all pissy and leave the site again. We wouldn’t want him to spend another 2 months at oprah.com.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:08 pm
has Marvin Harrison being involved in a shooting been mentioned here yet?
seriously…Marvin Harrison?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:08 pm
Gwyneth is to women as Coldplay is to music.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:09 pm
Nick…i actually have no problem with Mags, he’s normally a pretty cool dude on here (for a michigan man…had to throw that in there). he just gets nuts when talking about his mortal enemy LBJ.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Lyndon Baines Johnson?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:10 pm
you mean LeMortalEnemy?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:11 pm
412…is it just me or is the term ‘LBJ’ (referring to talking to someone while taking a shit) seriously underused?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:11 pm
I sort of spawned an uncontrollable monster with oprah.com didn’t I? It’s been used against me even. I feel like Dr. Frankenstein.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:12 pm
Broseph, that is hilarious.
Marvin was in a shootout? I once saw a website that showed all players in the 3 major sports with liscenced handguns. Marvin Harrison was the name that suprised me the most.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:12 pm
Link to the Harrison story here.
It’s a story, but a non-story. He’ll probably get cited, but it’s not like he killed or maimed anyone.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:12 pm
El BJ = Spanish word for fellatio
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:13 pm
spence, i just read that at AOL. interesting.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:13 pm
@412. Very well put sir.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:13 pm
This just in… Marvin Harrison has been awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Miami.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:14 pm
broseph,
it’s a non story in that regard. but not to the commish.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:15 pm
412,
Was the other gunfire from Stephen Jackson?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:15 pm
@412: That would make him the first football player to receive a degree from Miami in that fine institution’s history, honorary or otherwise.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:15 pm
People still watch that?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:16 pm
lol funny funny dicks
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:17 pm
@Hef: downloading S1 of It’s Always Sunny S1 on your rec. If you’re wrong, you will suffer the most severest of quonings.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Best Damn Sports Show is horrendous.
However, those top 50’s they do are great.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:18 pm
@nomo: Season 2 and 3 are far, far better. Season 1 has several funny moments but not recommendable.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:19 pm
@Diesel, I agree, I just don’t see the appeal with Lohan at all. She likes to party, which is cool I guess. I like to party too, and I’m sure after several coctails she wouldn’t look too bad, but still.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:19 pm
@nick p- im surprised no Dale Davis jokes out of you. Since you do make it pretty obviosu on here that you are racist
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:19 pm
@ Sparty
Yeah, I forgot about that part. I’m guessing though that Marvin will have a better story to tell than Pacman, since he’s got no prior incidents (that we know of) and it will probably be spun as self-defense.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:20 pm
Quote from Gwenneth Paltrow: “I like living here because I don’t fit into the bad side of American psychology. The British are much more intelligent and civilized than the Americans,†the 34-year-old added.
Fucking whore.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:20 pm
reminded me of maybe norman chad’s best line about another awful fox sports show, “I Max.”
“that may be the only show in the history of the medium that was named both for the show’s host and lone viewer.”

First Charles Barkley. Now Star Jones. What’s DWade’s obsession with chubby black guys?
My nominee for comment of the day.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:21 pm
I pulled my Groin – she’s married to the guy who sings the awful song about the color “Yellow”. If that doesn’t tell you all you need to know…
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:22 pm
nomo, all episodes of Sunny are hilarious. it’s a quick watch. Season 1 is pretty good, but 2 and 3 are better. but i would definately watch 1 as well.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:24 pm
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a fantastic show… you don’t need to download it, just go to hulu.com, they’ve got seasons 1 and 3… so I guess you still need to download 2, whatever.
Am I the only one who doesn’t give a shit that Jay Cutler has diabetes? Millions of people live with diabetes and I imagine it’s even less debilitating to an athletic career than asthma, which thousands of athletes deal with. That dude at the Vikings being diagnosed with leukemia, that’s a big deal. Diabetes?
I’m reminded of the scene in Dirty Work where Bob Saget stands up and says he sucked dick for coke.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:24 pm
I’m not saying don’t watch season 1. I’m saying don’t base your opinion of the show on season 1. They hit their groove in season 2 and season 3 is the funniest of the lot. So don’t go dropping any Hard J’s on this dude.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:24 pm
I really do love this site. It brings joy to my day. Even you Nick, even though I went semi-off the handle earlier today which I apologize for.

May 2nd, 2008 at 4:25 pm
@Maggs: All good.
@irish: I didn’t even see what happened to Dale Davis.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:25 pm
Lindsay Lohan was pretty close to a 10 in Mean Girls.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Sunny rules. Two favorite scenes ever (I missed last season though). Find them, watch and enjoy:
Charlie and Dee’s roid rage- “100 Dollar Baby”
Mac and Dennis pick teams- “The Gang Gives Back”
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:26 pm
@49er. Agreed. When she went blonde it all ended for me

May 2nd, 2008 at 4:31 pm
XV, thanks for the heads’up on Hulu having them.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:32 pm
Lohan was barely legal in Mean Girls, depending on the state. I think over 17.
Can we just make a rule that any teen movie shouldn’t be allowed to star anyone under 18, just to ensure that any dude can enjoy a lifetime of guilt-free self-gratification?

broseph, do you have age on Julie “The Cat” Gaffney from Mighty Ducks?
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:35 pm
ah, here is the actual quote after Thurgood Jenkins goes to an NA meeting and says he is addicted to Marijuana:
Bob Saget: “Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck dick for coke. Now that’s an addiction. You ever suck some dick for marijuana?”
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Diesel, I could agree with that.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:38 pm
if i was holding, i’d probably let bob sagat blow me for a pinch
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Okay all, let’s make a nice, orderly, single file line. Diesel, you’re first. Give your best “Apparently Bob Saget’s never met Spencer” joke.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:41 pm
Damn sparty, you’re right, I fail at life.
Still, Dirty Work is a damn good movie, and was directed by Saget (or produced or something).
I agree It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia gets better after Season 1, except Danny DeVito’s character gets annoying after a while. I couldn’t even pick a favorite episode.
Hulu is a rocking site, well worth the time. You can subscribe to shows, too, and it puts in your queue any time a new episode comes up for that show (make sure you unsubscribe from clips, tho, unless you really want to watch a thousand 30 second clips of shows…). You can watch The Office on there, too, and Arrested Development. Great selection.
One tip, install the Adblock Firefox extension and it’ll cream all the commercials from showing.

@ Benji
Born in ‘77, released in ‘94. I think if you were underage at the same time, it’s still OK.
The Cat (aka Colombe Jacobsen Dersten) was one of the contestants on “The Next Food Network Star” on Food Network. She was looking good, though she was also sort of crazy.

RE: Hulu:
That site is awesome. they have tons of TV with great quality. they have sports as well. they also have a bunch of movies to watch on there. i wish there was a way to download the shit though to load up the Ipod.
broseph, she’s 7 years older than me, so i think i’m clear
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:48 pm
@broseph: She was the chick on Rookie of the Year, also.

Danny Devito’s character is great at first and has moments of greatness later. Charlie and Mac make that show amazing.

Sparty, get to know sticky pads, they will be your best friend.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:52 pm
I’ve never seen either. Though apparently I went to school with the guy who was the goalie in the second and third one and who played Heed in So I Married an Axe Murderer. So I got that going for me.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:53 pm
Charlie and Mac are fantastic. Their lack of intelligence is fucking fantastic. i really can’t pick a favorite episode. The Gang Goes Jihad is an awesome episode. And the one where they try to get pictures of Dee in the club with no panties on.
May 2nd, 2008 at 4:57 pm
cbh, oddly enough, i use those for all work related items. I just never write down the wife’s request. oh well.

Looks like the Harrison thing is getting a little deeper. Got in an argument at his bar, fired the gun, told police the gun never leaves his house, then they find the gun in a bucket at his carwash.
May 2nd, 2008 at 5:00 pm
Heed wasn’t the goalie. He was Aberman or something. The nerdy Rob Schneider-ish character.

It is doing really well on Rotten Tomatoes also.
