Because it’s been awhile since we’ve featured Jessica Biel … hey, what’s another $150 million bailout? … what happens when you go to the unemployment office and they’re out of money? … on the positive side, illegal immigration is way down! … as usual, we’re way late: My New Haircut … guy who’s been right for two years, and he’s predicting the Dow dips to 7,000 … let the hate for Sean Avery begin! … Sarah Palin will drop the puck to open the Flyers’ season …
Eric Karros, another FOX guy, agrees with Tim McCarver. (Farther off the Wall)

Teo things Both Manny related
A) Why do you find it so hard that people think what Manny did was pathetic? I mean this isn’t high school he is a grown man making $20 million a year. If I was paying the guy that I would expect you to try. He has always been nuts. This time he stopped trying. That’s on Manny. And I don’t work for Fox.
B) Manny and the Mets. Do I think he could help? Sure. I love the guy. Even though I did just knock him. He would fit well in the lineup BUT unless he can pitch out of the bullpen or in the rotation he is need 7 on the Mets list of needs so If they don’t get him it is not some sort of Tragedy.

Shoot - I may bid on the Manny eBay car. I could turn a profit just by opening the glove box.

I don’t know any known commodity in the college coaching ranks who would sign on to be an offensive coordinator for Tubberville. That sum’bitch does not mess around. I can only assume that he and Franklin had a come to Jesus because firing someone 6 games into his first season seems very odd.

JT - way behind doesn’t explain it. 18 million views and i only saw it last night for the first time. for a guy who is in front he cpu all day, that’s weak.

7,000 seems a little low, but I can definately see 8,000. IMO, some of these “band-aids” will start to work before it gets to 7,000.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for UNC? Just plug another McD’s AA in Ginyard’s spot.
Oh, and I’d rather have Jon Voight’s car than Manny’s.

illegal immigration is way down!
This is the positive news I was looking for.

Weak? I work in computers for a living and get this stuff all the time and I’m seeing only after you linked to it.
The guy in that video is like a cross between Jason Mewes and one of Victoria Gotti’s sons.

JD - +2 for the Gotti son reference. As someone who lived in NJ for i think two years after college … the video’s painfully accurate.

I’ve been around the internets enough to know that I ain’t clicking on that link. Period.

Excellent choice of pictures.

My New Haircut is one of the funniest videos I’ve ever seen. I can’t believe it took you this long to see it. I could recite it word for word (is that sad?). But it is painfully true to the assclowns you see at bars around here in South Jersey. I can’t imagine how bad it is up North.
