All I know is that it'll be funny. Actually any combination of 3 of the 6 that doesn't include Tammy would be funny... Especially if they get to do longer sets. I'm hoping each of the three finalists gets at least a ten-minute set. Incidentally, can you imagine what a thirty-minute Jay London special on Comedy Central would be like? I really don't think his material translates well to that kind of format.

Ben Wallace isn't on the team.

Based on what? All six of my votes went to Alonzo.

Looks like there's some begging next week... I didn't see that coming at all. Should be interesting with the new twist, especially given there are now FOUR non-elimination legs. And still (thankfully) no YIELD...
-
Not when there's only two. If you've got the chance, use it. (edit) although, having said that, this is probably a non-elimination leg... Usually, the non-elim legs don't happen until there are 6 teams left. Good for them...they did what Frank and Margarita did in Season 1. Got out to a big lead and held it (almost) all the way to the end.

1 - Alonzo 1a - John 2 - pick one 6 - Tammy Alonzo was tonight's MVP. A lot of jokes, sharp, topical, and FUNNY. Heffron was definitely up there. I'd be happy with any of the other 3 sans Tammy, althought I thought Jay's set was much better this week for some reason. Gary was also very good.

Number of NBA championship rings owned by the 1992 Dream Team: 23 (plus 9 NCAA championship game appearances, and 15 additional NBA Finals appearances) Number of NBA championship rings owned by the 2004 wannabes: 2 (both by Tim Duncan). The Dream Team could actually play like, you know, a TEAM. That's why the were able to win all those championships. This group has no shot, because they have no idea what it's like to play team basketball.

Theres always been an excuse with Tyson... Buster Douglas - It was the referees fault Holyfield - Headbutts Lewis - It was Mike's medicine Tyson has been known for convenient injuries for a long time as well....the fact is he got knocked out. ESPN confirmed that he suffered a completely torn meniscus at the end of Round 1, bad enough that he can't even walk on it today. He couldn't throw any right hands for that reason. Made him pretty easy pickings.

Incidentally, Glass' karma joke made me laugh so hard it went in my sig.

Blue Jays: Kerry Ligtenberg Bob File Chris Woodward The two pitchers have been awful. Ligtenberg needs to retire. Woodward has been a mediocre-to-poor SS for far too long now.

I must admit, I was surprised. I didn't think Jay had the best set on Tuesday, not even second best. This pretty much cements him as "America's Comic." He has virtually no chance of making the final 3, however. To say he sucks, though, is wrong. His act is so incredibly far from sucking, it can't even see sucking in the distance. He's one of the sharpest wits I've seen on stage.

The old couples, sure. DEFINITELY not the gay ones. Other than Cha-Cha-Cha in season 2, the gay couples have been pretty nasty.

Going as in playing, or going as in watching? I've got a lot of friends who play at the 'Woods. Dunno if any of them are playing in that event. Playing in the early events. I'll definitely take a shot at the $100 NL multi-play, and also the $500 Omaha hi/lo. I played in that one two years ago, and sat next to TJ Cloutier at the opening table. Even made four jacks on him (couldn't squeeze any money out of him, of course).
-
They should be. Hell, I'm annoyed they're still in it.
-
Solid episode. Didn't want to see Bob and Joyce go, but it would've really sucked if the models got eliminated because Nicole passed out from the fish eggs. So is ANYONE going to use the Yield? Does it even still exist? And when the hell is the Fast Forward going to show up?
-
Glass gets my votes. He was less annoying than usual. I would like Jay to win, but he wasn't the funniest tonight, and has no shot at all against the Big 3.
-
Your conclusion isn't supported by the facts you bring up. The fact that you would even bring up the Black Ink and Grey Ink numbers -- numbers which are overwhelmingly biased toward starters -- indicates your own apparent bias against relief pitchers. (Fingers' Black and Grey numbers, BTW, are 12 and 58.) Bottom line is, Gossage is the best reliever ever to not be in the Hall, by far, and should be in on that basis.

I play no-limit holdem and pot-limit Omaha tournaments (single and multitable) on PokerStars. I tried playing on Party and kept timing out all the time. I'm probably going to the World Poker Finals at Foxwoods in October as well.

1 - #3 Tennessee (Kotzenjunge) 2 - Auburn (AoO) 3 - #10 UCLA (phoenixrising) 4 - #6 Virginia (Edwin MacPhisto) 5 - Rutgers (pinjockey) 6 - #1 Florida State (2GOLD) 7 - Penn State (therealworldschampion) 8 - West Virginia (Loaded Glove) 9 - Oklahoma (Damaramu) 10 - Miami (Spaceman Spiff) 11 - Michigan State (lomasmoney) 12 - Maryland (Marvinisalunatic) 13 - Boston College (Harley Quinn) BRUTAL opening schedule. Almost Notre Dame-like. Week 9 is about the only W I can count on right now.

Well, that didn't take long...Titans have signed RB Antowain Smith.

Rock's "God Spoke To Billy Gunn" promo was hilarious. Also the debut of "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS!!!"
