Ramblings from the Shack: Edition 5

The Kingdom is a pretty good and sad movie about the United States and Saudi Arabia/Middle East relations that stars Jamie Foxx and Jennifer Garner.

Comedian Sarah Silverman is the type of girl that runs her mouth and offends every one, until someone fires back at her, and then she sues you for $100 million because your comments caused emotional suffering and distress.

With the demise of the drive-in movie theater, teen pregnancy has dropped very noticeably…coincidence?

SEC football trumps every other conference by leaps and bounds. Is the Big Ten dead or just on life support?   The ACC is very overrated as well.

Too bad puberty doesn’t happen at 40…..that would be extremely interesting to watch your parents go through those hormonally challenged years.

If you had one and only one web site (besides Bumpshack) that  you could access every day, what would it be?

If you used the massive scale from Celebrity Fit Club and put Diddy’s ego on one side and Kanye West’s ego on the other side, which ego would weigh more?

What is the worst reality TV show of all-time?……my vote would be for The Bachelor.

Who is the female equivalent of Jack Nicholson?

It’s been almost 36,000 days since the Chicago Cubs won the World Series.

Michael Jackson wasn’t nearly as crazy as Britney Spears at her age. Imagine when Britney reaches Jacko’s age!

Mike Tyson is likely to go to jail for a long time over drugs.

There are two type of teams in the NFL:  The New England Patriots and everybody else.

It’s insane for any jury to award a person $11 million dollars as a victim of verbal harassment.  Call me whatever you want for $11 million bucks.  On that note all of my high school basketball coaches and fraternity brothers when I pledged own me $11 mill a piece.  By my math I am due close to $400 million dollars…..pay up NOW!  lol

Ramblings from the Shack: Edition 4

ESPN and ABC have the worst coverage of an NBA game ever. It is enough to make you crave the NBA coverage of CBS from the 80′s. On the other hand no one does it better than TNT.

Steve Nash gets as pissed as I have ever seen him during a game and ESPN DOESN’T show the replay? What the heck?

Steve Nash has more bruises than one of O.J. Simpson’s girlfriends.

Nash is too unselfish at times and is one of a few NBA players that parents should encourage their kids to mold their game after.

Remember when MTV was cool back in the day when they showed videos? Then they ruined it by turning it into a reality TV channel? Well the same thing is happening to ESPN. ESPN use to be this cool, maverick sports station and then Disney/ABC bought it and it has slowly been going downhill until this year…then it took a suicide leap the rest of the way down the valley.

Dan Patrick wouldn’t have been manhandled on his radio show earlier this week by David Stern if he didn’t work for ESPN/ABC on their NBA telecasts. Since he did he was afraid of retribution by the commissioner against him or his network and let Stern stampede all over him during his interview.

The remaining four teams left in the NBA Playoffs are the four ugliest playing teams in the league. The league and its refs reward brutes over the beauty of the game.

ESPN announcers are so afraid of the wrath of NBA commissioner David Stern that its like hearing Stern call the game.

Jon Barry is the worst NBA color commentator ever. He is color commentary in B&W…..Tim Legler is not far behind. I don’t think you should be able to be paid to comment on pro basketball unless you averaged 10+ points during your career. Think about it the quality of things said by Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and Magic Johnson are miles ahead of that by Barry and Legler.

People who say Bruce Bowen is not dirty have either a criminal record or are overweight 35-year-olds who play football during basketball games at the YMCA.

Is there an online petition floating around calling for the firing of ESPN’s Stephen Jackson? If so please forward it to me.

If you think Tim Duncan whines a lot on TV then you should check out a Spurs game in person. The cameras miss most of it.

NBA sideline reporters are as useless as U.S. Vice Presidents.

Does anyone miss Kobe Bryant not being around after the first round of the Playoffs again? I didn’t think so.

Ramblings from the Shack: Edition 3

Don Imus would still have his job if he were black.

Do the men of the Blue Man Group always have blue balls?

I love Drew Barrymore but she makes the exact same movie at least once a year.

Alec Baldwin threatened to leave the country if George Bush was re-elected. He may now leave the country to save face over his irresponsible tirade against his daughter.

The most profitable Hollywood movies are horror flicks.

A person uses approximately fifty-seven sheets of toilet paper each day.

70% of poor people in the world are female.

96% of all candles are purchased by women.  Must suck to be that other 4% right now.

Will Gmail be in Beta forever?

Sheryl Crow said this week we should limit ourselves to one square of toilet paper when we go to the bathroom….. I think we know why Lance Armstrong broke up with her now….stanky.

There might actually be a democracy in China before Guns n’ Roses album Chinese Democracy is released (been in the works for over 10 years now).

Ramblings from the Shack: Edition 2

Is there a better mass produced cookie than Famous Amos? My runner up is Chips Ahoy!

Remember the good ole’ days when MTV showed videos and A&E showed history shows?

Pacman Jones is about to get heavily spanked by NFL commissioner Roger Godell.

Will Ferrell is the new Jim Carrey.

Speaking of which Harry Carey is the only good thing ever about the Chicago Cubs with the exception perhaps of Ernie Banks. But remember Carey got started and spent most of his career with the great St. Louis Cardinals.

Lambert and Butler King’s are the most popular cigarettes in Britain.

M&M’s could become extinct if they get addicted to oral sex.

Who would win Survivor if the contestants were Andy Rooney, Larry King, Elizabeth Taylor, Peter O’Toole, Walter Cronkite and Dolly Parton?

Would Tom Cruise or John Travolta make a better gay cowboy?

If you are Michael Jackson are your own kids off limits?

Sweet tea is the wine of the south and way more addicting.

Ramblings from the Shack: Edition 1

Cameron Diaz is turning into Meg Ryan.

The Kentucky basketball job is not nearly the hot job it use to be.  Billy Donovan will be taking a step back to take the Wildcats job over his current gig at the University of Florida.

People complain about the lack of talent around Kobe Bryant but Lamar Odom is an all-star and first round picks Kwame Brown, Andrew Bynum, Luke Walton, Bryan Cook, Aaron McKie, Chris Mihm, Lamar Odom, Vladimir Radmanovic and Sasha Vujacic.  All higher picks than the supporting cast Michael Jordan played with the majority of his career.

The Florida Gators Joakim Noah will be a bust in the NBA.

Why did they ever cancel The Golden Girls?

Google’s Gmail is slowly taking over and changing the way everyone does email.

I have never seen a more pathetic group of women than those on The Bachelor.

Ohio State’s Greg Oden is someone’s grandfather.

If Britney Spears was a beer she would be an Old Milwaukee.

If Paris Hilton were a cigarette she would be a Virginia Slim.

Rosie O’Donnell is on the verge of having as many enemies as George W. Bush.

If you are dating someone with wallpaper in their house then they are too old for you.

There is not a good actor or actress in Hollywood under the age of 30.

More movies are made in Vancouver, Canada and Louisiana than in Hollywood.

Blockbuster has out netflixed Netflix.
