Vanessa Hudgens is probably the next Hillary Duff … sorry to harp on the bailout, but just for kicks – a year ago, Paulson said there would be no bailouts … the “authority on the way to go No. 2” … coming soon: Bull Durham, the sequel … police officer busted for having sex with girls, cows … with the Euro falling off a cliff, we can finally take a trip across the pond! … after the jump, a more seasoned actress …

Is this the same Vanessa Hudgens? (*NSFW*)
October 6th, 2008 at 8:23 am
Didn’t you just say you would never be able to visit England on Friday? Flip flopper.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:23 am
Chris – is that the NSFW pic?
October 6th, 2008 at 8:26 am
Jermario Moon is also 8 years older than Kevin Durant.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:27 am
CRM – Yeah, can you believe that? In the span of a weekend, the Euro went to shit. Wonder what is going to happen to all those vacation homes the Euros were buying in America the last four years.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:33 am
I went 18 months ago and it was butt expensive. Awesome, but expensive.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:34 am
That Bull Durham sequel will be awful, about 18 years too late
October 6th, 2008 at 8:35 am
CRM
Yes, sorry. Definately NSFW picture. I’m just glad she was 18 in that picture (supposedly).

Blasphemy

“Wonder what is going to happen to all those vacation homes the Euros were buying in America the last four years.
The Trump will buy them all up, I heard last week that he was buying everything in LA since its all so cheap.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:43 am
Supposedly 18 is good enough for me.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:44 am
i agree that a Bull Durham sequel is a huuuuge mistake. It should never be made. leave greatness alone. Just like Major League 2 never should have been made. Or Caddyshack 2.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:47 am
Just don’t mention Weekend at Bernie’s 2, the greatest movie of all time.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:50 am
Major league 2 wasnt that bad…now major league 3 back to the minors, thats another story
October 6th, 2008 at 8:50 am
Who’s the tranny at the bottom of the post?
October 6th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Major League 2 wasn’t bad.
Wayne’s World 2 = Greatest sequel of all time.
October 6th, 2008 at 8:52 am
Just blasphemous. Firstly Major League 2 cemented Omar Epps as the official Wesley Snipes replacement in the minds of studio executives allowing them to make the shitty movies Wesley turned down. Secondly, the world would have been denied Jackie Mason’s brilliance in that tour de force as well as more of Jonathon Silverman in his prime. For shame.
/44-6 WCNYFBG…sat in a luxury box

RWH-luxury box huh? why wasn’t i called? As my feet were drenched in soda from the little kid who spilled all over my shoes.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:00 am
Fucking A I am..Poverty Sucks
October 6th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Horford was better than Moon, who was better than Durant. That system is dogshit.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:03 am
sparty…I am sorry…this was a recon mission…Monkeykong’s college Fraternity brother or what ever you call those guys Dad’s company has the box…we got the call to come up at halftime so we had to feel out the hobnobbing process..of course Monkeykong decided this was the weekend to get a mohawk since in his words..”I am 31 and never had one. When else am I gonna do this?” so that left me to be the respectable one. Free Beer and drinks. Free Shrimp. Free food. End Zone view. Great great stuff. Got to see the David Carr TD pass that Houston never got to see ever. I may get to go for a full game against the Iggles.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:04 am
which section was the box?
October 6th, 2008 at 9:05 am
buttbuddies?
October 6th, 2008 at 9:06 am
Section 239
October 6th, 2008 at 9:07 am
What does Jonathon Silverman have to do with ML2? Are you thinking of Little Big League?
October 6th, 2008 at 9:07 am
CRM…Caddyshack 2..
October 6th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Losing in the first round of the playoffs > nailing that skeletal old skank Madonna.
The guy is worth half a bill and lives in NY – he can’t do better that that?
October 6th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Weekend at Bernies 2? I’ve always preferred a Gene pick.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:08 am
Oh, never mind. You transitioned to Caddy Shack 2
October 6th, 2008 at 9:09 am
damn, not too far from me. we have one directly behind us. i am always craving the wings they are eating.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:11 am
browns 244…giants, 0…but they hold DA to 750 yards passing.
/you guys order the nachos or the beers?

One of the better signs I saw from Vandy was…
“The Geeks Shall Inherit The Turf”
October 6th, 2008 at 9:40 am
Loved all the Vandy signs. Hilarious.
October 6th, 2008 at 9:58 am
The best sign I saw was :
“Hey Kirk, the SEC drew straws, it’s Vandy’s turn to beat Ohio State in a bowl game.”
A full list of the best is at link below.

Hasn’t Shelton denied wanting to or making a sequel to Bull Durham for years, even as recently as earlier this year or last?
Did someone finally offer him enough money? Or has a script finally come together that everyone signed off on…which of course will be bad.
October 6th, 2008 at 10:53 am
why did the north have to let the south back in? couldn’t we have just excised that awful, retarded, no-reading, family fucking, NASCAR watching, obese, swamp-tumor?
seriously…does the south do ANYTHING for the betterment of the US?
just cut the fucking part of the country off and let it float down to the caribbean. good riddance.
October 6th, 2008 at 11:24 am
seriously…does the south do ANYTHING for the betterment of the US?
Gives you your best presidents, best food and best football.
October 6th, 2008 at 11:26 am
Also, my favorite sign from Saturday was the dude in the back holding up a sign that said: You People Are Blocking The Library!
October 6th, 2008 at 11:49 am
I loved the “Fulmer Ate My Other Sign” one. The Library one was great too.
It’s a good thing spence isn’t bitter.
October 6th, 2008 at 12:03 pm
naw…i hope you guys know im joking. i love the south for two of the three reasons August mentioned…food and chicks…i know you didn’t mention the ladies, but seriously, that’s gotta be up there.
October 6th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
It’s all good. I think the South kind of sucks too.
October 6th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
yea…but seriously…im bitter as fuck still.
LSU…not so much, but just thinking about Florida makes me want to open fire.
October 6th, 2008 at 12:31 pm
With this common hatred, we will bridge the gap and unite America.

Best Presidents? Um, ok I’ll make the fairly accepted, general list of best Presidents. Washington, Lincoln, FDR, Kennedy?, Reagan,
Washingtone – Virginia – Ok I guess this is the South, but barely, and cmon, he was the General for our army, who else were we gonna choose?
Lincoln – From Illinois.
FDR – From New York
Kennedy – From Mass.
Reagan – From Cali
What Presidents were you thinking of?
October 6th, 2008 at 12:39 pm
The current president is from Texas right? Fail.
October 6th, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Reagan was one of our best presidents? Uh oh.
October 6th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
I wads thinking more recently… like Clinton (sorry that wasn’t clear above).
Historically you can go back to Jefferson (better than Kennedy, Regan or Washington)…
Also, Texas is not the south. It’s just Texas.
October 6th, 2008 at 1:36 pm
Kennedy and Regan shouldn’t be caught near a list of best presidents. Period.
October 6th, 2008 at 1:38 pm
hell, the patriotic pecking order in texas is 1. texas, 2. the US, 3. they can’t count that high so it doesn’t matter.
October 6th, 2008 at 1:42 pm
As a man wiser than I once said: Texas is the only state that fought its own war for independence. Maybe it’s time to give it to them!
Except Houston. My Astros stay American, damn it.
