Welcome Back

Hope everyone had a great weekend and enjoyed the beautiful weather and the most amazing time of the year for sport fans.  

March Madness started Thursday night and was just great basketball, top teams for the most part won there were only 3 lower seeded teams that won and for the most part they weren't huge upsets: Maryland beat Cal and Michigan beat Clemson to show the world why the belonged in the tournament.  With no huge upsets and people started to question when it was going to happen....well that's when Friday came around.  Well around 11:00pm on Friday the big upset happened, Cleveland State beat Wake Forest who at one point this season was number one in the country.  The game reminded all of us why this tourny is so great.  The weekend continued to provide great basketball and we are now into the sweet 16.  Syracuse heads into the sweet 16 and continues to grow Jimmy's win total now at 799 and hopefully can get number 800 next Friday night against Oklahoma.

Moving on to the weekend in review I saw I Love You Man.  I thought it was a very funny movie and highly recommend it.  Paul Rudd is hysterical and I heard most of his quick liners in this movie were completely improve and he is really really funny.  The movie was one of the funnier movies I have seen in a while.  This group of Rudd, Rogan, Segal, Hill are starting to put themselves on the map like the frat pack and the many other groups of actors.  They just put out funny movie after funny movie and the previews that played before I Love You Man were great, 2 containing Rogan.  One was Year One with Cerca and Black with many other people in it and it looks hysterical.  The other one was Rogan, Hill and Adam Sandler I forogot the name of it but it seems like a serious comedy (oxymoron I know).   Last was Rogan as a mall cop again I don't remember the name but looks great.  Go see I Love You Man, you'll laugh and enjoy it I promise.

Few other things, I need good websites to go to everyday.  I need good reads at work and there are only like 3 sites I go to now during the day and its usually CNN, Profootballtalk.com and Variety.  I need more shit and I am asking on the readers to help me out with this.  If there are websites you go to all the time or other blogs you read please post a comment and give me the name of that.  Whenever I find something good I will be sure to post them for all of you.

2nd Episode of Kings was tonight and the show continues to entertain and I will certainly continue to watch.  I recommend you watching it, if you haven't seen the first episode watch it on NBC.com or Hulu.com and take a look its still really early in the series to not fall too behind.

Before I go:

Movie quote from Thursday was Pulp Fiction.

Todays Quote:" I'll tell it to the hot, I'll tell it to the cold. I'll tell it to the young, I'll tell it to the old. I don't want no laughin', I don't want no cryin', and most of all, no signifyin'. This is Petey Greene's Washington."

Question of the Day:  If you could commit a crime and not get caught what would it be?

  1. Here are a few suggestions for some websites to keep you from harming yourself or a colleague during the work day. User beware, not all of the following websites are entirely "office-safe," however they are all guaranteed "office-hilarious":

    - Deadspin.com: a sports-based website with some pop-culture elements that will certainly keep you distracted from the task at hand and put your career in jeopardy.

    - Sporcle.com: a website that coins itself as the home for "mentally stimulating diversions," it's games include: name all of Adam Sandler's movies, list all seven of the late George Carlin's dirty words, and of course type every lyric to Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire."

    - AwfulAnnouncing.com: If you like Gus Johnson and other extremely emotional announcers whose play-by-play calls border on insanity, then this is the site for you. Do not adjust your volume, Gus really is just that loud.

    - Barstoolsports.com: As much as I hate Boston sports, these guys have their shit together. This website makes fun of every douche in both pro sports and Hollywood and even finds room for a daily "Guess that Ass" contest that will post two to three booty shots of a famous broad. There is no better feeling than guessing that ass, it is truly the high point of my day... man I need a new job.

    Proceed with caution.

    - B.M.W.

  2. Wow, another easy Question of the Day! I'd steal your laptop/desktop and I'd drop it in the middle of a 6 laned highway so that I'd stop contemplating suicide whenever I read your blog!
