The Roundup: Kevin Durant, Mark Reynolds, and Turning Back the Clock to MTV’s “Dog Brothers”

Lacey Chabert, because her birthday is approaching … a reluctance to spend – yup, that’s us … police cite a man for doing naked yardwork … because we greatly enjoy Steve Carrell … undercover drug investigators like their Wii bowling …teacher-student action in NOVA – as a point of ref, Hayfield was gully … swimming in flood waters is an ‘ego‘ thing? … 22-lb cat joining the Pet Fit Club … shocker! Cost-cutting has lowered worker morale … well this is a great way to sell a book …

Surely none of our DC readers would attempt this …
Big week for Letterman, huh?
This is, without question, one of our favorite MTV moments of all-time. For a year in college, we couldn’t stop laughing at the Dog Brothers. “Those two over there, beggin’, beggin’, blonde – all you.” Those guys are a riot.

This week The Leader gets the game, so there will be more of it. And I’m sure they’ll let Jerry address the issue with a carefully-worded, pre-prepared “statement” about the problem which will be met with no skepticism or follow-up questions.

Merk – It’s one thing to be like that … it’s another to do it on TV.
There are so many classic lines:
- “Odds tonight on getting lucky? Even money. Without a doubt. Lock. Lock.”
- “Always bring a backup. If somebody has something similar on, go to the car and change.”

I can distinctly remember when that one dude fried his hair with a flat iron. Why would you put gel on before? Why does a dude have a flat iron?

sir – I should clairfy…not the key bridge. I’ve jumped off other bridges though. how high is the key? about 70 feet judging from the time it takes those guys to hit the water? that’s what I meant by “been there. done that.”

about 70 feet — “been there. done that.
Ugh, not me. Jumping from heights is super scary. I was an epic fail the one time I tried, and that was just a 10 meter diving platform.

Just read last night’s thread- cant believe you guys let that girl get away with rooting for 3 NFL teams, as well as the Yankees and Red Wings. Poor effort all around for you guys.
September 23rd, 2009 at 8:52 am
Great article that I scanned and will read in full later.
It is appalling that only now in 2009 would the content of such an article is revealed more in depth.
Anyone but a bojack or masses of homers easily could have suspected from most “journalistic” writing that most such pieces are really parrot/puppet/shill/hack/propaganda/disinformation/mob cover jobs, written often under the fallacies of “freedom of the press” or “the people have a right to know,” as of course such “journalists” are like you and me just looking out for #1.
Even Whitlock came on here on 8 May and admitted indirectly on that point, and I called him out on it right here because he clinged to the usually outdated notion of “independent journalist” otherwise.
September 23rd, 2009 at 8:52 am
“Since 1990…” representing the expansion of the league from 14 to 16 games and from ten to twelve teams in the playoffs.
This guy’s wrong about by 14 years about when the NFL went to 16 games. I’d like for him to please get off my lawn.
September 23rd, 2009 at 8:53 am
Ah when MTV was shoving New York and such down our throats …I remember those dudes and was hoping to never see them again …what douchebags.
September 23rd, 2009 at 8:53 am

I’m going to watch the one before it, Modern Family. I will probably record the Cougar one, and then delete it halfway through the first episode.
I liked that show she was on called Dirt, though.

September 23rd, 2009 at 9:06 am
She would be great to watch getting boned doggie-style with the mute button on. That is about as good as it would get for her now, as she never has had much else to offer.
She caught a winning sitcom hailed largely by whyyyte suburban folks and rode it to fame despite poor overall acting skills like most of that cast on that lame show of the 1990s.
This concludes today’s lesson in whyyyte sitcom history, a bygone era at last in American culture lest you are lame enough to be watching “My Boys” or hilljack favourite “The Bill Engvald Show.”
Oh, and for sake of equal opportunity, there are also “The George Lopez Show” and “Tyler Perry’s Meet The Browns” so everyone can pretend to be happy too.

I’m excited for the USFL documentary. I can remember going to Philadelphia Stars games but was too young to understand why the league folded or why the Stars moved.
The arrogance and hubris of Donald Trump in trying to go up against the Pete Rozelle-led NFL by bringing the USFL to the Fall doesn’t surprise me.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:17 am
so you actually watched it? where do you guys find all this time to watch tv shows?
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:17 am
I’m excited for the USFL documentary
You should be watching the 5 part AFL documentary on Showtime, which started last Wednesday. It’s pretty good. There’s lots of interviews with people who are dead.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:19 am
so you actually watched it? where do you guys find all this time to watch tv shows?
It takes 20 minutes to watch a sitcom. You can record the football game you want to watch, not watch it for 45 minutes, during which time you can watch 2 sitcoms, then you can go back and watch your game, fast forwarding through all the commercials, and be caught back up within a half an hour.
Football season is the best season for watching TV shows.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:21 am
Hey Dirt, lemme know if you stumble upon anyplace online where you can watch it. I’ve been dying to check it out but refuse to order Showtime to watch Duchovny spout bad dialogue and have sex with random women. I already get Hung on HBO.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:21 am
Garland Greene and I are the only ones I think who follow the CFL, with him as our resident expert I think. I follow it largely due to football withdrawal and because it sure as heck is better than preseason NFL ball.
However the “defence” up there is laughable, as it seems like largely a chuck and run under league with its 20-yard long end zones on a 65-yard wide field.
If they made both the NFL and CFL fields 55 yards and 110 yards long with the American end zones, things would be just right I say but it won’t happen — the games would open enough and long enough for today’s bigger and superior athletes compared to most only 25 years ago.

My favorite part of the Dog Bros. video is the Ray Romano lookalike and his buddy. His club scene was straight out of a middle school mixer.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:24 am
If you mean “watched” by flipping through whilst flipping channels …it’s been on awhile and for the last year I am online far more than even watching TV or at the same time of course anyway like more people than ever.
That, increased competition with fibre, and the recession are also why you should be able to continue to get “specials” from your TV service provider by threatening to switch. And if you signed a contract lest it is for the NFL Sunday Ticket on Direct TV, you might just be a sucker.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:25 am

Keep your 1, and take +1 of mine. You’re the guy that got me to watch it.

Oh, I watch Dexter, I just watch it online the next day. I do miss the boxing, though.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:26 am
I have ShowtimeX3 for free …and with its liberal agenda and shit like “Big Brother After Dark,” it’s sucked largely, but it’s nice to flip into at random some cheesy skin flick once in awhile. I still have not caught its NFL show.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:27 am
Hey Dirt, lemme know if you stumble upon anyplace online where you can watch it. I’ve been dying to check it out but refuse to order Showtime to watch Duchovny spout bad dialogue and have sex with random women. I already get Hung on HBO.
Showtime’s maybe 5 bucks a month, and Duchovny’s horrible dialogue usually leads to sex with random HOT women (that show is god fucking awful). Nurse Jackie is putrid, Weeds is stupid, and I don’t like Dexter. But I”m only wasting 60 bucks a year, and I like watching 5 day old NFL highlights.

I think if you wanted it, that miserable, teeny tiny, cockeyed skank showed off her cameltoe on Entourage last week. Let’s hope that’s the last we’ll ever see of her.
I don’t know if Entourage “brought it,” but they’ve shown hot girls.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:46 am

September 23rd, 2009 at 9:49 am
Probably, but E’s the most annoying character on television, next to the crazy chick he was dating this season.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:50 am
Did Weeds and Californication get some sort of memo to see how many times they can hit “fuck” into a 30 minute episode? They can’t get through a single line of dialogue on that show w/out dropping a c**t, mf’er, c**ksucker or whatever. Both shows are unwatchable now, after starting out so well. Weak.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:50 am
TBL- You can keep Kate Mara.
September 23rd, 2009 at 9:52 am
Kate Mara looks average at E’s office, but smoking hot at the club. This bothers me. I’m also happy that crazy bitch is gone. She wasn’t hot and she was crazy. Two things that should never happen on Entourage.
September 23rd, 2009 at 10:02 am
I was watching the “Chinatown” Ep last night and I got to thinking, E has been the focus of this show way too much. I like how they have dumbed down on Vince and picked up everyone else’s arcs, and I think Turtle and Drama are both getting great stories. But I really hope E takes season 7 off as the primary focus.
September 23rd, 2009 at 10:05 am

Yeah no kidding it’s not like we have not already on here lowered truckloads of smashed crates of reconstituted highly hard bullshit on TBL for the sake of some of his likes such as Entourage and Artie Lange you know.
