PM Roundup: Everyone Could Use More Don Cherry In Their Life
Animals, Baseball, ESPN, NHL, Politics, Television, Video Games May 7th. 2008, 4:00pm
TBL is was on the road this afternoon unable to respond to e-mail communique. Hence, you can send stuff to me and I’ll officially ignore it in his absence. Update: Leave me alone. I didn’t like you anyway.
Enjoy the newly engaged *cries* Scarlett Johansson *weeps* at a weekend gala event for… costumes… or something. I tried to read what all those beautiful celebrities were gathered together for, but I kept getting distracted by the pretty pictures….
The Washington Post hosted a chat for college graduates today. The host? College Humor’s Streeter Seidell. So remember, it’s, Christmas Ape bad - Prank Wars good. (WaPo)
A practical assessment of sports blogging. With research and everything. (Stet Sports Blog)
Afghanistan firefight caught on voice mail. (Fox 12)
Happy trails, Julio Franco. (Page 2)
See you in the unemployment line, eh? (Ottawa Citizen)
GTA 4 made half a billion dollars. (Reuters)
I didn’t read this, but I’m sure it wouldn’t interest me anyway - Hilary Clinton in a race car. (NY Times)
That terrible new blog from last week changed its name because they were too edgy. I hear they still all wear leather jackets and American Flag bandannas though. (Major League Jerk)
All your favorite shows are getting ready to call it quits until the fall. I blame the Writers’ Guild. (Yahoo!)
I wish I had this much time on my hands. (gigglesugar)
ESPN is Don Cherry picking for the rest of the NHL playoffs. (Awful Announcing)
And Barry Melrose welcomed him. (Melt Your Face Off)
Can you say, “First place by percentage points!” And doggies! (ONLYforPETLOVERS.com)

My leather jacket has a patch on the back that is an American flag wearing a leather jacket. so there!
May 7th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
i like to wear assless chaps with my leather jacket.
that chick in the dog article on the bottom is pretty hot.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
Is Major League Jerk like a TBL farm team, or spin off? I just went on there and it was cool to see several TBL Nation dudes posting on the site. Almost makes me want to ask if I can play too…
May 7th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
Big Nuts…Hef decided he needed his own voice, we latched on like the leeches we are and are going to shit in his sandbox
May 7th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
So which of their combined 5 fans actually care about a Dimondbacks/Reds Blog?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Hef got tired of hijacking every post into a discussion of either a) the Diamondbacks or b) his fantasy team
May 7th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Maggs…please go check we added big Market cache..we now have the Mets, the Yankees and are adding a certain young Philly boy and someone from Boston..we are pretty bad ass
May 7th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Hef lost an arm wrestling contest with TBL and was forced to start his own blog.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
GTA IV rules….
May 7th, 2008 at 4:18 pm
@maggs: every blog has to start small. don’t you remember the days when The Big Lead was just a place for aspiring arm cannon aficianados to gather and talk about arm workouts?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:18 pm
Major League Jerk, the proud Triple-A affiliate of TBL…or not?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
What does GTA IV have to do with Majopr League Jerk?
/I am so filthy from self promotion I am going to puke…I hope my split of the profits is worth this shame
May 7th, 2008 at 4:19 pm
RWH
Well if Nick P is still involved why did the name change from Major League Asshole?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
That’s easy.
Michiganblowsdragoncock seemed too long and, surprisingly, was already taken.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:21 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
Well I guess benji likes 9 year olds.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
@RWH
See, the name was perfect!
May 7th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
Major League Asshole > Major League Jerk
Sorry
May 7th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
fetch…I agree but we were running into the problem of people not being able to view it at work which is the point of these things..to kill time at work.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
Ah yes. As a collegian with no job I don’t think about these obstacles. Hell I’ve seen people watch porn at the library so I’m pretty immune to a site called Major League Asshole.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
im loyal to TBL. sorry guys but thanks for taking my advice
/still waiting for first post
May 7th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
Jeez, Andy Reid’s kid is ridiculous. Smuggling pills into jail??!!??!

May 7th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
random dis or is this stemming from something?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Irish..we are loyal as well…we are not changing the culture…we are just looking to bitch about baseball (and other things) in an expanded way.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
benji..the first chick was a kid..the second was dick worthy.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
trust me, im not hating on your guys blog at all. I think it is a great thing for you guys. I think its cool how people get along/fight on this site
May 7th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
Agree with benji: Pictures 34, 45 on that photo gallery, gents. You’re welcome.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
CBH/RWH, that is why i said on the bottom picture. she looks like she has good dick taking abilities.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:29 pm
Truely sad to see my younger cousin Julio, retire.
/Danny Almonte
May 7th, 2008 at 4:29 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
Haha, my apologies benji, I only bothered to look at the first picture on there of the young girl, I scrolled down and saw what you meant.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
Regarding gigglesugar…do british people really call basketball “netball”? No wonder they lost WWII to the Japanese.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
Please don’t tell me which manly man monitors and sent the gigglesugar link to CRM
May 7th, 2008 at 4:31 pm
Hammond…Job well done.

hooray
May 7th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
@Hef - I prefer the underwater footy pitch.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:32 pm
no nip slip
hooray for beer
May 7th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
to hell with the christmas ape dude. im just surprised to hear that a stealer fan had a job in the first place
May 7th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
@RWH: you can name your blog whatever you want, but Websense blocks anything from blogspot.com from work.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
he does the st. andrews net thing at with leather too, so I like him even less
May 7th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
After I gave up on underwater basket weaving, I moved onto underwater footy pitch. Underwater basket weaving is getting way too commercial, you know.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
And Scarlett looks scary in this picture.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Strongest nip slip of ‘em all. (Is it really a nip slip if it’s blatantly obvious it was staged?)
May 7th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
@St.Bear: What about wordpress. Oh and WTF is up with Hank Scorpio? Talk about coming back down to earth. Is REO Speed Dealer next?
May 7th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
+1 nomo. I don’t think that will ever get old for me.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
i thought that was the Titantic girl, damn she does look scary
May 7th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
so irish youre saying beer > boobies? to each his own i guess.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:38 pm
irish, just write a post and email it to TBL. I’m sure he’ll post it. That’s probably what Mike NYC did.
Right, Mike? Right? He’s ignoring me. That’s so rude.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:38 pm
wordpress is fine (obviously if I’m on this site during work days). As for my fantasy team, it’s called Reverting to the Mean, it’s it’s a harsh bitch.
On a good note, I have Joey Votto on my team. On a bad note, I think he’s on the bench.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:38 pm
@jason- i didnt see any nip. Plus i like REd Stripe lager
May 7th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
I had Edinson Volquez on my bench today!
May 7th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Hef- Man you should have came to me. I have had this YYSA domain forever but it sucks trying to fill something by yourself.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:41 pm
Scarlett is usually smokin, but in this photo it looks like she’s wearing the drapes from my grandmother’s house. I’m still trying to figure out how Van Wilder landed her.
Rock Chalk, Fetch….
Don Cherry is tremendous. “I guess they like my jackets”. I wonder if he fits Al Michael’s definiton of a gas bag on parade since he’ll now be on the WWL.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:41 pm
It’s a fact: Beer opens the door to a wider selection of boobies.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
10-0 Mets baby…way to make this road trip 3-3…it makes up for nothing.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
@ irish - now i get your joke.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:42 pm
Cherry is one of the biggest jerks going. He still think the NHL is in the 1950s.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
fixed
May 7th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
I bet Don Cherry likes beer. Just a guess.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
He landed her because he’s hot and funny. There are just as many women jealous of Scarlet as there are men jealous of Ryan Reynolds.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
Don Cherry suits > Craig Sager suits
+1 4 seaons for the jacket quote
May 7th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
@Sportsgal: That is rediculous
@4seasons: Rock Chalk indeed.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
sportsgal..I quite frankly have never thought of Ryan Reynolds until I heard he bagged the Scarlett…good for him…but he is not one of those guys that other guys get worked up over…I think it is more of a how the hell did he do it thing than a jealousy thing
May 7th, 2008 at 4:49 pm
Damn I knew I could have landed Scar Jo.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:50 pm
Ryan Reynolds is not funny. i saw him on Conan and he was the worst interview. Conan looked so uncomfortable cuz the stories sucked. Sportsgal, why are we always arguing about the guys you like? i’m gonna take a time out.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
@YYSA: the only part of you that is hot is your burning pee. (Clap Clap!)
May 7th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
So I do have a chance to bag a hot star. All I need is to become good looking, get a sense of humor, and somehow get introduced to a famous celebrity.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:52 pm
That’s what I’m trying to tell you - chicks dig funny guys, especially when they’re as good looking like Ryan Reynolds. Every single one of my girlfriends would put Ryan Reynolds in their top 10 list of hot guys. Another example - Justin Timberlake.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
2 Guys, A Girl and a Pizza Place
Ryan Reynolds has earned it.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:54 pm
Sportsgal are we talking for a one night or for boyfriend/marriage? then again i dont know if id agree with you for either.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:54 pm
I bet Don Cherry Drinks Molsen’s
May 7th, 2008 at 4:54 pm
JT’s got talent. Reynolds does not.
/couldn’t sit out
May 7th, 2008 at 4:55 pm
@CRM- there’s probably a 2 girls one cup joke in there somewhere
May 7th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
This is why guys become douches. Because girls like ‘em.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
@Roman - Well said….
@Irish - agreed.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
I pull much more tail by being funny than by being ridiculously good looking. Oh, and the Lambo helps…
May 7th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
2 Guys a Girl and Pizza Place was one underrated sitcom
Scarlett is all boobs, and overrated
May 7th, 2008 at 4:57 pm
Sportsgal is dead on..Ryan Reynolds..hot and funny.
May 7th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
fixed*
May 7th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
/fixed for preference accuracy
May 7th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
I pull much more tail by being funny than by being really really good looking. Oh, and the Lambo helps…
fixed I think
May 7th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
@benji - I get it, in your opinion you don’t think he’s funny. Those of us with vaginas disagree.
@fetch - there are thousands of women who would love to marry Ryan Reynolds. I’ll never understand why anyone thinks Paris Hilton or the girls from the Hills are hot, chalk it up to one of those mysteries of the opposite sex.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:00 pm
What she said!
May 7th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
chalk it up to one of those mysteries of the opposite sex.
@sportsgal: agree
May 7th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
I have a friend who LOVED 2 Guys, a girl, and a pizza place. He also played independent league baseball and thought the movie “Summer Catch” was hilarious, because according to him playing was just like that (except he never landed any tail like Jessica Biel). I vowed to never watch “2 guys” again after that.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:03 pm
Actually, if you combine Clown and YYSA’s responses, that’s about right. Most chicks, when under the influence of my happy love pills (read: roofies), think an ‘89 Honda Prelude is a Lambo. Oh, and I say I know TBL.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:04 pm
Sportsgal…No guys think Paris Hilton is attractive..that was a total gay/woman conspiracy culminating in a bad porn and jail…and Fellas remember there is funny and vagina funny..funny is the conversations we have and the humor we like…vagina funny is cutsy bad jokes said with smile and a wink that takes no talent but girls drip all over because they have no soul…anything that bleeds for 7 days and doesn’t die HAS NO SOUL
May 7th, 2008 at 5:06 pm
comments like that will be found on Major League Asshole not Major League Jerk
May 7th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
@Sportsgal: most of the girls from the hills (besides Heidi) are hot. theres a difference.
@RWH: Well said on the humor bit. The vagina humor isn’t one of my strong suits. but it works sometimes.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
Jealous of Ryan Reynolds?bahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahah
Sportsgal, men don’t claim to understand women, please don’t try to claim to understand men.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:08 pm
Goddamn Mets, leave 13 on yesterday and knock them all in today. What the hell?
May 7th, 2008 at 5:09 pm
Ted..They are slowly killing me…seriously…I think I am going to go to the doctor for a stress test or something
May 7th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
@RWH - if guys don’t think she’s hot, then why is she famous? It’s definitely not a woman conspiracy, we despise her.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
The only Vaj humor I have is doing a sort of Lambchop/Cartman’s J-Lo hand puppet kind of thing. Pisses Mom off something fierce when I do the ol’ “Talking Vaj says the blessing” bit at Easter dinner.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
How does Ryan Reynolds go from this to this?
May 7th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
sportsgal…she is famous becaue she is on Page Six, she is famous from TMZ (hell she put it on the map) she is famous because of the Entertainment Tonight, MTV, she is famous because she is rich and she fills gossip columns…now find me all the guys going there for there entertainment and 9/10 are light in the loafers…everyone else is a chick..Chicks and Gay Men made that piece of shit famous..NOT GUYS
May 7th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
@cbh - I said jealous meaning a lot of guys wish they could bag Scarlet Johanson, not that they want to be Ryan Reynolds. I find it hilarious that you’re trying to have a “men/women don’t understand each other” conversation while you’re busy giving LeBron blumpkins.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:14 pm
Paris Hilton has never been hot.
Now.. the Hills girls, yes they are… but i have never seen that show
May 7th, 2008 at 5:15 pm
Can someone please give me an example of vaj humor?
May 7th, 2008 at 5:17 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
I’m apologizing a lot today, sorry sportsgal.
Agreed, the blumpkins thing isn’t helping.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Ok..you want an example…if you are with a guy and then something silly happens..you drop your glasses or something and he goes oops let me get that for ya…and goes to hand it back to you and says…are you sure you got this and gives a little wink and smile and there is a chuckle..you are going to chuckle because of the embarrassment and the lightening of the mood of the guy…there is nothing behind it..its tripe..there is no thought..he is not funny..he is nice…nice is misktaken for funny..that is vag humor
May 7th, 2008 at 5:20 pm
Well said RWH
May 7th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
Vaj Humor is based on the insecurities of the woman and the man’s way of softening those insecurites through light needling and facial expressions
May 7th, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Roman, that is a stellar example. I would have gone with the shorter route of “you know it when you hear it”. But, me thinks that neither of our resident hotties would ever confuse nice for funny. Plus they are clearly cleverly disguised dudes.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:26 pm
RWH, The only reason I am not stressing over the Mets is Santana has been as good as advertised and Maine is solid. I think the hitting will come around enough to get thi steam to 88-92 win level, whether that is enough is another question.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
Wow, if one semi-innocent Van Wilder comment stired up this commotion, I can’t wait until the music post.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
Interesting, but “vaj humor” only works if the guy is hot. I have never EVER thought a guy was funny if he winked and smiled at me when I did something clutzy.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
Ted..I hope so…I have been going back and forth on Castillo batting 2nd or 8th…I was hoping Castillo would provide a 2nd leadoff type but he just can paly his game batting 2nd…if Church keeps hitting we are solid…the Carloses need to get going (Delgado has) and David needs to get off the snide
May 7th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
David just needs to adjust to the right handers, he is killing lefties. Beltran is very frustrating when he slumps because he seems to lose the strike zone and then gets caught looking on the outside corner pitches. I prefer slumps when they are swinging and missing but I know it is semantics. A slump is a slump.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
sportsgal..you are wired a bit different..I have used Vag humor to my advantage for years..it doesn’t only get you ass…it can get you what you want..the women in the office love me so I get away with stuff others get called out for…like Major league Jerk. Also remember…every chick has different insecurities and every chick looks different…so self esteem is totally in play here…I could look like the Elephant man but if she thinks she looks worse..I am money.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
The jury is still out on Maine, IMO.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
RWH, Clayton at ESPN is reporting Strahan is retiring. Claims it is now 60-40 he does not play next season. How is that news? He was 50-50 last month. What the hell is 60-40? Here is what I know, he needs the money, he will be back.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
I just spit out my YooHoo. If you don’t get this on a t-shirt asap, I will.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
@ Gonzo, The jury is out on solid? Tough grader.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:35 pm
I give blumpkins to LeBron James.
Women love me at the office too, too bad they are all either young, hot and have boyfriends or in there 40’s.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:37 pm
@RWH - I think you’re right, I must be an exception to the rule. I would feel incredibly insulted if some guy thought a wink and a smile were the key to getting in my pants. Well, maybe not, I am pretty easy after a few beers…
May 7th, 2008 at 5:42 pm
Beer +
+ 
= Heaven
May 7th, 2008 at 5:42 pm
And, commenter masturbation starts in 3, 2, 1….
May 7th, 2008 at 5:45 pm
See, I laughed at both those comments… are they examples of Vaj humor?
May 7th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
Nope, not Vaj humor at all.
May 7th, 2008 at 5:48 pm
for me, vag humor only occurs when I’ve made some broad (or dame, if you prefer) smile or laugh and I feel like less of a man afterward
May 7th, 2008 at 6:39 pm
Scarlett is seriously overrated. There are many women much hotter than here.
May 7th, 2008 at 6:39 pm
or her.
