Rihanna … Tyra from FNL set for the ‘Red Dawn’ remake … when the cops catch you with your pants down, you’re not getting a ‘legal’ massage … heroic mother saves daughter from cougar … funny line in the ‘personal’ section here … not feeling the move to aluminum; doesn’t make as good of a weapon … you do not want a city job in this town … Russian woman attempts to restore her virginity … that’s right, put the public to work! …

who green-lighted this movie? the original is so painful to watch.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:08 am
+1 on the zimmerman
June 19th, 2009 at 8:12 am
well how else is he going to know if he likes it or not?
June 19th, 2009 at 8:15 am
that jacuzzi link is one for the books. in the description, he’s listed as having a ‘good tan.’
can you imagine that conversation with the cop?
’so he’s jackin’ it and the guy has a really good tan’
June 19th, 2009 at 8:16 am
I liked Bill Curry on the mother ship – prob in the minority. He’s radio segments were always good.
I like what he’s doing with the start from scratch program.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:17 am
it’s a remake, and it shall be awesome.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:21 am
From now on, every awkward moment in my life will prompt me to say, “ooh, it’s so cold”
June 19th, 2009 at 8:23 am
Ok, the guy saw a hot chick and had to crank out a round. Maybe he should jerk off in his own jacuzzi, but I get it.
That changes everything.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:25 am
TBL – are you originally from Fairfax Co? I lived in Reston for two semesters during a co-op with Federal Highway…pretty cool area.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:27 am
Georgia State is going to whip Alabama’s butts.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:32 am
that aluminum bottle is so innovative that Iron City was using them 5 years ago.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:33 am
I know, right? Screw who the better player was, what I wanna know is, who has the riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiings!!!
June 19th, 2009 at 8:35 am
So you can easily differentiate him from another man masturbating in your jacuzzi.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:35 am
Miz, you think Reston is a cool area?
June 19th, 2009 at 8:39 am
sir – it was a great place to live. I’d never spent much time in the DC area so having a free place to live in Reston was pretty sweet. plus it was clean and about 10 minutes away from the closest subway station. I would buy the $5 day pass at least once almost every weekend I lived there and go into downtown DC and hang out all day.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:42 am
I don’t always drink beer, but when I do, I drink Ahrn City n’at
/not really
June 19th, 2009 at 8:45 am
Aluminum bottles are sweet, keeps it niiiice and cold. Unfortunately your only option is usually shitty Anheuser Busch beer.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:46 am
its cool, miz. i don’t understand people that move down here out of college and live way out and reston or up in gaithersburg and never come into the city. a friend of a friend of a friend has lived in alexandria for 4 years and had never been to georgetown.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:50 am
Once you’ve been to Georgetown a couple times, there’s no reason to go back. Unless you’re a scenester and wear a hat.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:51 am
@TBL, that spanish site is definitely croatian
June 19th, 2009 at 8:51 am
she had never been into the District, period.
do you live in DC, dirty?

Marylander, out by Annapolis.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:58 am
sir – I used to love going into Georgetown. there was a philly cheesesteak place that I always ate at that was great. I knew all the smithsonian museums like the back of my hand by the time I left. yes, I’m a nerd.
June 19th, 2009 at 8:58 am
nice town
June 19th, 2009 at 9:03 am
i love the museums miz. that’s a big part of what i don’t understand about living 15 miles from an international cultural center and never going to see any of it.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:04 am
That Spanish/Croatian kid finally got the 3 million Euros to compliment that sweet ’stache. He’s got it all, including maybe a harelip.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:05 am
Dirty – proof I’m not a scenester…I do wear a hat though sometimes.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:05 am
Ok, the lawyer in me will speak for a sec…this isn’t necesserily the truth. Is it not illegal to receive a massage while nude. It is not even illegal to receive a massage while nude from a nude chick.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:07 am
OK, so what do you think fake hymens are made of? Sausage casings? A skin graft? Wax paper?
That’s the part of the story I can’t figure. I can do the math on how you do it (you go in via the cooch, natch, and you sew something up in there to make a fake maidenhead) – i just can’t figure out what you do it with.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:08 am
/clears throat
ROLLLLLLLLL TIDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
/bows
June 19th, 2009 at 9:09 am
This is very true… I mean, what????
June 19th, 2009 at 9:10 am
at least we know who the interview is later today

Arkansas – lsu at 1:00 today.

Man goes to look at house for sale; is now wanted by police for masturbating in the owner’s jacuzzi
How can they tell for sure with all the other DNA in there? I’ve seen jacuzzis where the water looked like egg drop soup
/used that line before
//is that allowed??
June 19th, 2009 at 9:22 am
I got the DirecTV bonus channels so I’m following the marquee group of Tiger, Cabrera and some other guy.
Observations:
-Cabrera got fatter since The Masters
-Karl Ravech, not Chris Berman, is doing commentary. The world is a better place.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:25 am
Other guys is Paddy. Didn’t have a chance to check that out until he hit that putt.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:27 am
Why? It is.
It’s loud, bitter, angry, and perfect. And it’s the moment that affirmed that rock music can have a message, and that kind of thing wasn’t reserved for the folk snobs.
/unapologetic Dylan fanatic
//”Bringing It All Back Home,” “Highway 61 Revisited,” and “Blonde on Blonde” are the most important albums in rock history
June 19th, 2009 at 9:29 am
arkbadger,
I hear now that Tcheipkow is not going to play either. With him gone and no pitching left, it could be a good weekend for my Tigers.
But LSU has been in this position before and not reached the finals, so nothing would surprise me.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:32 am
Georgia State represent! bigben, where you at? I’m buying season tickets for the inaugural season, and I don’t even live in Atlanta anymore.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Penn State?
/stop fucking with SEC schools because they want one well-deserved break in the season
June 19th, 2009 at 9:40 am
spence, I trust if you are posting here, you have the live feed going from usopen.com – it’s impressive. High quality video, even if it’s Ravech and Rankin in the booth. Seldomly gets stuck buffering.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:41 am
Iron City beer is awesome. Wish it was available up here.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:42 am
Cheesesteak Factory in G-town is by far the best drunk food place in the city. When I was younger, we went into DC almost every weekend. Now, it is more of a novelty to go drink in the city. Those people who live in like Manassas or Fairfax and never come into the city always confuse me. I mean there is always something going on and it never costs very much to get here if you take the metro, the museums are free, you can walk around most neighborhoods without fear, and there are a ton of theatre shows going on daily.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:43 am
besides MSU, Auburn, Kentucky, South Carolina, Arkansas, Vandy and Tennessee?
June 19th, 2009 at 9:44 am
Baylor would crush all those schools
June 19th, 2009 at 9:47 am
High quality video, even if it’s Ravech and Rankin in the booth.
My ears literally started to bleed when I figured out I was also hearing Trey Wingo and John Anderson try to talk about golf on another hole.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:52 am
I’ll see them and raise you Baylor, Texas A&M, and the Big 12 North.
I know you didn’t start it, but why doesn’t the Big 12 get the SEC “cupcake” treatment? Texas schedules Rice and/or Louisiana-Lafayette every year. And I remember Sam Houston State going there fairly recently.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:55 am
Texas and Okla at least both scheduled Ohio State. Tenn is the only SEC school that accepted OSUs home and home offer.
June 19th, 2009 at 9:57 am
Since defense is not allowed in the Big XII, teams score 50+ every week regardless of competition. So, no one can tell when Big XII teams play the cupcakes.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:01 am
Well duder678, like I implied, Alabama catches shit for scheduling Georgia State, but it said nothing in the article that they also scheduled Penn State for 2010.
I’m sure Oklahoma is “balancing” their Ohio State game with a home game against New Mexico State or somebody like that.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:02 am
Rice and USL aren’t 1-AA. And Texas fans were more pissed about Sam Houston State than anyone, but that was when they added the extra game and no one would do a home and home with us.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:04 am
Not ONE who’s the dude joke. Well done gentleman. I would love to get in those thighs.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:04 am
Was Tiger plugged? Why is he taking a drop
June 19th, 2009 at 10:07 am
no spoiler alert? wtf dude…now im gonna have to fast forward past that on the dvr.
ASSHOLE.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:11 am
clown, the 1-AA games are a sore subject for us too, LSU-wise. I remember in 2003 (the split title year), people gave us shit because we had a 1-AA team on our schedule while USC had USC and blah, blah, blah. That year we had Marshall in our 1-AA spot, and they backed out at the last minute to play Kansas State. I know that sounds stupid at the time, but LSU was a so-so program at the time, while K-State was at the peak of the Snyder years.
Clown, speaking of scheduling, has your side heard anything about the rumor that LSU can’t schedule a home and Reliant Stadium series with Houston or Rice because UT threatened to never play them anymore if that happened (because of Houston-area recruiting)?
June 19th, 2009 at 10:11 am
you will be disappointed im guessing a sprinkler. then he stragically ricocheted Paddys putt with his quarter.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:12 am
USC had Notre Dame and blah blah blah.
Oops.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:13 am
good…fuck paddy.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:16 am
Jay, it wouldn’t surprise me in the least. DeLoss Dodds is a mean sumbitch.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:31 am
Me too. 100 percent. Those naked photos of her a few weeks ago underscored my lust.
June 19th, 2009 at 10:52 am
true jay. it’s going to be a tough one today for sure. losing tschep, along with lyons not being able to play the field since the end of regular season screws our infield. i wouldn’t be shocked to see the hogs win today with just throwing every pitcher they got, but they will be screwed tomorrow.
June 19th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
I just wanted to come in here and make fun of miz for thinking Reston is a cool place to live. DC residents laugh at you. Also, no way is Reston 10 minutes from the Metro. More like 20 or 30. Reston is way the fuck out there. I don’t like any of NoVa that much, and my gf is from Fairfax. Speaking of NoVa, TBL, I think I’m going to email you something.
June 19th, 2009 at 2:53 pm
On the way into the Phish show outside of Pittsburgh last night a guy stopped and gave me an IC, he said I looked like I could use a beer. And he was right!
June 20th, 2009 at 1:15 am
I lived in Reston and somewhere in Fairfax County for six of my years in Metro DC. It USED to be a cool area until about 2001. Now it just SUCKS major ass with all the ninnies, douchebags, wusses, and bureaucrats in its traffic.
