And Friday's game has now become must watch. I'm openly excited about the potential of a Hamels/Myers 1, 2 punch.

Probably. Season 1 was only like 8 episodes. I would love it if they put out Season 1 & 2 together.

The Suns are hanging around nicely so far.

Hmm, Dick Baveta (sp?) is the ref tonight. Could this lead to the Lakers getting the screw job to get to game 7? It would atone for the Portland series from a few years ago.

Smush is single handedly killing the Lakers right now. It's impressive to watch.

Tuesday morning quarterback on ESPN page 2 had a pretty good article this week that rips Kiper. He correctly points out that Kiper just makes 20,000 predictions leading up to the draft, and then says that he is right, even though half of the things he says contradict his earlier points.

Yeah, most definitely. I think that's where Chris's strength has been too. He's obviously a modern rock singer and that's what he does almost every week. The only week he didn't, even though his version of "What a Wonderful World" was very good, he ended in the bottom two. I think after that he realized that he has to sing his style to get votes.

I thought that Paris was really talented, but she got on my nerves too. I think it was the one week where she was singing her post song interview part. That shit bugs me.

Help this sun set.

Thing is, everyone loses their father at some point. I'm sure this is devastating for Tiger, but it's not something that I feel a lot of empathy over.

You definitely hit the nail on the head with the pressure from the networks to be a hit right away. You need to give a show time to find it's audience, not just shove it down people's throats and pull the plug if it's not an instant hit. I disagree with you on the Office though. I like how they're using the other locations so far. It is all kind of logical stuff. And particularly the Dwight/Michael at Dwight's speech part. It made sense for the two of them to be away on business. I think that they can continue to do this going forward. Don't take everyone someplace, but take a few people. Realistically, you see your co-workers outside of work from time to time. Happy hours, parties, business trips, etc...

I thought the episode was pretty good, but dragged in the middle. And yes, I do believe that's the first time he's called J.D., J.D.

Should I be worried that besides the Beattle's song, I didn't know any of the "modern" choices? Or proud of myself. I thought Chris was awesome on the first song and bad on the second. I didn't really like anyone else that much tonight. I think that Elliot, Paris and Kat are in trouble this week potentially, but it will probably be Paris who goes home.

That was a nice dunk by Kobe. Thomas managed to give him a little shove, but didn't do much.

Kobe is finally showing his leadership skills. That was fucking great.

"I used to fuck guys like you in prison".

Yeah, he's playing with them through the Europe tour, then rejoining the Allmans/DTB over here.

Well, I think that I already basically have all of the Allman's ones, but I think that I'll pick up the Skynyrd set. Go see the Allmans in concert this summer if you like them. They sound great right now and will have either Gov't Mule or the Derek Trucks Band opening for them. Should be fantastic shows.

Wow, I hope those songs are wrong. If they're right I'll be fast forwarding through a lot of this show.

Movies not previously mentioned... Roger Rabbit Weird Science Howard the Duck Short Circuit

Where's Paulie been anyways? Is this two straight weeks he hasn't been on?

They could sing it again during their highlight clips part. It would save some time.

I laughed at this, but you're gonna take some heat for this one, I think. You know, I used to get pissed when people said stuff like this, then I quit smoking pot and listen to Phish only once in a blue moon. Still think Phish is good and enjoyable, but there is definitely something to be said for the everything sounding better stoned line.

I've really started to enjoy this guy. Another songwriter that I think is way underrated is David Lowery.

Well, that went well tonight. My faith in America has been restored somewhat.
