That was at Penn State. The original picture has a guy in it, as well, and he tried to be a media whore going on talk shows and shit arrogantly proclaiming he wasn't apologizing for anything. I bet his parents are really proud right now. That snake is a photoshop, right? Doesn't look right around the guy's hands.

Agent, as long as you can move it... it's probably the same thing. If it's solid and feels like it's attached to something, it might be more serious. I'm guessing you can move it, though, if you thought it was a bb. Yeah, apparently they are pretty common and most people just don't even realize.

Well, Anderson just got called out so he's probably booked until 2009. sherdog

No. I added to the Britney is pregnant thread which turned out to be bullshit and a helpful mod changed the name and sub.

oh my That's incredible.

touche.

I just got the zip files of the top 100 singles from Pitchfork off of stereogum. Lots of stuff I haven't heard before - lots of stuff that's a bit too electronic for me. I know this doesn't necessarily belong in this thread but nowhere else to put it really. If you're interested... don't know how long the files will be up.

I'm moving back to Chapel Hill in June, most likely. I'd be beyond thrilled if that happened, but it never will.

So, apparently $50M was set aside for the Orange Bowl before it got demolished. Today, Miami officials voted to give that money to the Marlins. All of it. The state, which is the major obstacle to a stadium, is no longer needed, and apparently all $525M needed for the stadium is in hand. I made sure before I posted this here as to how close this truly is, and apparently this is a few signatures short of a done deal. In time to keep Hanley, at least.

I have to say... that name doesn't exactly go against all the people who say Leena is fake.

16 year old Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant by her LIVE-IN BOYFRIEND. 16. Holler, ya'll!

This marks the first time in my life I have ever used the word shortbus used to describe a day.

War Machine made like 50k between KO of the night, fight of the night, and his purse. He needs it for his legal bills. Here is the UFC 82 card, as of now. Dan Henderson vs. Anderson Silva (for the UFC Middleweight Title) Rich Franklin vs. Travis Lutter Jon Fitch vs. Akihiro Gono Josh Koscheck vs. Dustin Hazelett Evan Tanner vs. ??? Jorge Gurgel vs. John Halverson

Well, I guess it makes sense. He'll never need a sports agent, again, but he might need a hollywood agent. In other, more important, news... The man loves to use a phone as a weapon and I have to respect him for it.

GSP is ready, bitches. Looks like Matt Hughes' brilliant strategy to get him on a lighter training camp might have backfired.

Rich Franklin vs. Travis Lutter is going to be the "co-main event" on the March card w/ Silva/Hendo. I mean, what can you really do with Rich at this point, while Silva is still the champ? He can never get another title match, so what the hell?

It's still very disappointing that we're only getting 8 episodes instead of 16.

Sarcasm, I'm sure, but I'm relatively confident that with sound engineers involved they can pull off quite the album. Oh, and according to the release calendar on metacritic, The Killers have a new CD in the fall. That probably will get pushed back to 2009, but otherwise you're talking another pretty good CD for the world to shit on. And it also says Franz Ferdinand Early 2008, but I think it's a bit too late in the game for that to be accurate... but still out in the new year.

Wow, she only looks like every single girl from Long Island that I go to school with.

I'm with Carlito on this one. Based on that face alone there's quite a few pounds tucked in down below there.

I think I've decided that Cutty in the 3rd season is my favorite character in the arc of the series. They kinda knocked him down a bit in 4 with him screwing everyone's mother, but his reformation story in season 3 is brilliant.

I re-edited my post a few hours after making it to make a salient point and not just be a thread killer. This is sort of an interesting, important thread and hopefully it won't die so quickly.

So... I'm watching all the seasons and I'm up to Season 3, Episode 1, which is sort of a landmark episode. Towers fall... Colvin and Marlo introduced, along with Carcetti. Anyway - apparently the Marlo/Barksdale conflict is supposed to be a metaphor for Iraq? That's what David Simon said in the commentary. His commentaries are always very enlightening but also leave me scratching my heads in parts.
