The Roundup: Kitna Still Stinks; Wie’s Back

If the rumors are true, and Cassie’s hanging out with P. Diddy, ugh … and after the jump, a re-run, but a damn worthy one … does this make us a third-world country? … selling your virginity is the new hotness … not the hotness: the too-skinny 90210 girls … guess the Google phone looks cool … eight years ago, she wrote a book about McCain; now, he’s “lost her” … if you like Aubrey O’Day …

How else do you think Cassie got a record deal?
She’s a terrible singer, so she has to be fucking Diddy.

Seems like Willie Williams is on about his 9th year of eligibility.

Does anybody else think that it was a travesty that Krzyzewski was not mentioned in the 10 Names article? Most of it was retarded anyway.
September 18th, 2008 at 8:17 am
less of a travesty: Brooke Hogan on stern today. she didn’t know the current VP or who sarah palin was. but her boobs are real.

Miz, I need a ruling…
TBL’s Megan Fox Hype Week vs Sparty’s Michigan St./Notre Dame Hype Week.

Sparty’s Michigan St./Notre Dame Hype Week > TBL’s Megan Fox Hype Week
/court adjourned
September 18th, 2008 at 8:22 am
that would have worked out better had we waited til we had the next Sparty video was up.
she’s not an athlete, but what about Demi Moore?
September 18th, 2008 at 8:27 am
Yeah, and for the J example, how could Jaromir Jagr not be used?
September 18th, 2008 at 8:28 am
we can do it again later, sparty. nobody reads the comments anyway.

TBL, excellent round up. i have about 15 tabs open on my screen right now.
September 18th, 2008 at 8:33 am
i concur. i have never seen so much red for links that i have clicked on.

getting pulled over on moped’s isn’t exactly a rare thing in Madison. the majority of the students have them. of course, most don’t drive them out to the bars. Or roll with a passenger (most likely a jersey chaser) while drunk.

Simple as that
less of a travesty: Brooke Hogan on stern today. she didn’t know the current VP or who sarah palin was. but her boobs are real.
This is all good.

Louisville held on for a nice win over K-State.
Well played TBL. You win this one.

“How about when you go for a jog yesterday and you feel like it’s papparazzi because the TV cameras are following you and they’re asking you if you’re still the coach of the Raiders,” Kiffin said. “I felt like Brad Pitt.”
HA!

Great story on Williams. I am not sure if I want to root for him cause of his past; but it’s hard not to appreciate that he hasn’t given up on himself.

Couldn’t you just write that three times a week and link a Mushnick column? I think the dude is spot on with his criticism but he is a one trick pony. He never has a new criticism or even much praise. When he does give a good job coulmn it is always a backhanded compliment.

yep, definitely looks like a 7th grader did that.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:09 am
that woman seemed really disappointed in McCain. I wonder of this will go anywhere.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:12 am
thanks for the props.
anyone on twitter?

If you weren’t reading the article, this would sum up Bush pretty neatly, too.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:20 am
There is nobody I have wanted to strangle with my bare hands more than Michelle Malkin.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:20 am
$900 billion in bailouts doesn’t make us a third world country, it just shows how expensive inappropriate deregulation can be, and why Reagan lost his mind long before Alzheimer’s kicked in.
Deregulation of markets can be a great thing, but it’s not some financial miracle cure.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:23 am
The hell is Michelle Malkin?

WTF is twitter? Sounds like slang for meth.

I need a government bailout for the recent slump I have been in the lady department. Google says I need 1.4391 million U.S. dollars to make this happen with the Italian model that is selling her virginity. Help me out Uncle Sam!

“Is LT finished? (Charger Blog)”
Hmmm. I believe someone else brought this up the other day.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:50 am
McCain was all over the Freddie/Fannie scandal back in ‘05. They knew back then that Freddie and Fannie were cooking the books so that the big wigs over there would get bonuses.
Obama’s in the top 3 of Congressmen who have received money from people at Freddie/Fannie since the 80s. And he’s only been there for 3 years! He’s right in the pockets with those loons and he helped royally fuck over us taxpayers.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:54 am
Taking a relative pittance in campaign contributions > having the guy whose legislation helped make this all possible as chief economic advisor.
September 18th, 2008 at 9:58 am
Just throwing it out there.
“These two entities — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — are not facing any kind of financial crisis. The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.” — 2003

So TBL, I just want to make sure where you stand on the Gawker situation since you ignored my 2 questions to you about it yesterday. You’re saying that publishing private emails stolen from a person’s personal email account is A-OK in your book. Do I have that right?
September 18th, 2008 at 10:39 am
That Gawker shit was beat-up. Way over the line…
September 18th, 2008 at 10:45 am
Not to mention, August, TBL’s link to today’s Gawker attack on Michelle Malkin is complete shit. The telephone numbers she put up on her site were already made available to the public by, get this, the protesters themselves! You can hate Michelle Maklin for a lot of reasons if you want, just get the facts straight. If TBL can’t see the difference then I’m done visiting this site.
September 18th, 2008 at 10:52 am
I have no idea about the veracity of the Malkin thing because I love my brain enough not to make it explode by watching/listening to her crap, but I’m also failing to see what Gawker did that was so great coverage-wise.
Besides, the best anti-Palin coverage has been at Talking Points Memo anyways…
September 18th, 2008 at 11:30 am
Gawker is a fucking joke. Linking to Gawker is a fucking joke. Now I’m going back to see if my company exists at the end of the day.
September 18th, 2008 at 11:40 am
But if it weren’t for Gawker I’d have no idea what useless trust fund babies and publicity people were douchebags and which ones were douchenozzles!
