Random Thoughts

(smokeshow of the day Caitlin on left/ Rebecca on right. PS - Caitlin is also a new Pat's cheerleader.)

METHUEN — Methuen High School senior Rebecca Lucas figured it would be "a pretty good workout," when she competed this spring with more than 300 women for a chance to be a New England Patriots cheerleader. "No way," the 18-year-old soon-to-be-graduate said last week, recalling how poor she thought her chances were to get one of the 24 available spots. "I had no chance of making the team, because I didn't have any dancing experience like most of the girls," she said. "I never seriously thought about being a Patriots cheerleader. I just thought trying out for the squad would be something fun." Lucas, who even was competing against 10 veteran Pats cheerleaders, surprised herself by making the first two cuts. First she was among 56 survivors. That field was narrowed to 32, Lucas still among them. Then she managed to last through a grueling two-week practice session before the final cuts were made. She was flabbergasted to make it.

See, the Patriots' Way is all about excellence. It's about leaving no stone unturned, leaving nothing to chance, and working night and day to find the next great talent. That's why they draft a Matt Cassell or a Kevin O'Connell. That's why they let Deion Branch walk and in a series of moves turn him into Randy Moss and Jarrod Mayo. That's why Tom Brady is scouting Teen Beauty Pageants for the next Giselle. And that's why they'll pick up a girl right out of high school like she's LeBron James.

Bill Belichick wakes up in the morning and pisses excellence. He knows that winning comes from doing all the little things. The way John Wooden used to begin by teaching his players how to lace their sneakers, Belichick knows that greatness comes from doing everything right, not just some things. For years the Pats have been an also ran among NFL Cheerleader units. And I have to think that with a young influx of young talent like Becca, they'll finally have a cheer squad to match their football team.

LAS VEGAS — The world's highest profile poker tournament is under way at the Rio Hotel & Casino, with 55 championship events and a twist to its main event that will keep players in suspense until November.

The most expensive buy-in will be US$50,000 for a tournament called H.O.R.S.E, where players rotate between five poker games according to a time schedule.

Seven other tournaments will cost $10,000 to get in, including the main event, a no-limit Texas Hold 'em tournament that likely will carry the highest prize.

Last year's winner, Jerry Yang, won $8.3 million. Tuan Lam of Mississauga, Ont., placed second and took home more than $4.8 million.

This year, the field of thousands will be whittled down by mid-July to a final table of nine, who then will take a four-month break before finishing the tournament in November.

Somebody mentioned this to me this over the weekend and I didn’t believe them until I actually read it today.  They’re not playing the Final Table until November???  What is this, "Survivor"? This could be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard in the history of organized gambling - worse than “Keno To Go”.   I mean do you know how many things could happen in 4 months to a lifelong degenerate who just won a million dollars?  First of all they could be dead.  Not kidding.  Also, once they reach the Final Table – who knows what they’re going to do with the money they don’t even have.  There’s going to be all kinds of side deals, etc.  4 months is an eternity.  Plus, ESPN still isn’t broadcasting it live!  They’re waiting 24 hours to edit it. Umm, so why wait the 4 months in the first place??

Anyway, nobody has to be happy about this.  None of the players, at least.   Our only hope is that it sucks so badly that next year they revert to what they’ve been doing the past 38 years and play the whole tournament uninterrupted like you’re supposed to. 

And in a related story, some 18 year old Norwegian chick (not hot) just became the youngest person ever to win a bracelet, and also, this just in - Stuey Ungar has just rolled over in his grave.

I don't get Kobe Bryant. If you're going to cheat on your wife why would you pick a girl who looks exactly like her? And wouldn't you wait until you're on the road to start banging chicks? It's cheating 101 baby. The only possible explanation is that he and his wife cut a deal that Kobe can fuck whoever he wants as long as he doesn't rape them anymore. It kind of makes sense when you think about it. I'm sure Vanessa Bryant is thinking "Hey I can live with an adulterer, but just not a rapist." Anyway, back to the question at hand of who'd you'd rather fuck. Personally I'd go with Vanessa Bryant in a blowout. Vanessa Curry just looks like a poor man's version of her is you ask me.

PS - Celtics fans need to somehow get Vanessa Curry masks or cardboard cut outs for the game Thursday. How do we make this happen? And at the very least a couple "No Means No" chants.

Anyway vote 1 for the wife and 10 for the former cheerleader

Some people may have noticed that we sold advertising to TVG in preparation of the Belmont Stakes this Saturday.    Cue the peanut gallery who now say the site looks ugly and we should give back the money.   Those people are my favorite types of douchebags.     In fact, it is my opinion the world would be a better place if these people mutilated themselves. But I digress.   The point of this blog is that nothing beats betting on horses from the comfort of your own home or office so hopefully lots of Stoolies will sign up.    Plus on Friday Pete “The Shoe” Manzo will be handicapping the entire Belmont Card.    I’m even going to give him real money to bet with.    So if you want to shadow Manzo’s picks make sure to open an account.  I may even throw out some mortal locks during the course of the week just to show I care. All the races on Friday will be streamed on TVG.com so you can watch them from your computer as well.   Manzo’s picks for each race will be posted 10 minutes before post time on Friday.

The #1 story on the gossip pages the last couple weeks has been that Lindsay Lohan has gotten the gay.   I purposely haven’t mentioned it because I refuse to believe that it’s true.   Listen it’s a well known fact that Lindsay Lohan is addicted to dick.  She doesn’t just like cock, she loves it.   So there is no way she’s giving up the dick juice for an ugly piece of ass like Samantha Ronson.   Yeah I know that hot lesbians sometimes like to date ugly lesbians and get dominated by them, but not Lohan.  That’s just not her style.    Now if she was seen hugging and kissing Angelina Jolie or Charlize Theron then it may be a different story because those two broads can make anybody’s privates tingle.   But as it stands, I refuse to believe she is throwing away all her years of dick worship for the likes of Samantha Ronson.  Just no way.

I love how Boston dominates the rest of the world. We take over every stadium and every park that we play at. Everybody bitches and moans about us, but when push comes to shove we run this country. They hate us because they want to be us.

PS - The only thing better than the Manny chant would have been a "Beat LA" chant

Cincinnati.com - A Columbus man has been charged with crawling under a table at a library on University of Cincinnati’s campus, spraying a substance from a syringe on a woman’s shoes and then photographing them. Dwight Pannell, 43, was booked into the county jail about midnight on charges of voyeurism, assault and criminal trespass, court records show The woman, a UC student, told police she was in the Langsam Library on Woodside Drive about 9 p.m. Wednesday when she spotted a suspicious-looking man walking around, records state. Then, she heard a noise coming from under her table and felt something cold on her feet. “When I looked down, the person was on his knee with the syringe,” she wrote in an affidavit filed with the court.  Panell told police he was visiting the library and trying out his new camera. Police found images of the woman’s feet on it. “He admitted taking pictures of her feet,” Patterson said. “He said he was doing so because it was a new camera.”

To quote Lawrence Taylor, Dwight Pannell was set up like a motherfucker! I mean since when is it illegal to test out a new camera by spraying girls feet with water and then take pictures of them? How else are you going to figure out if the camera works or not? More importantly take one look at this guys face and tell me he is guilty. Impossible.

Sure raping a chick is bad, but at least he was able to buy his way out of that one. No amount of money can erase this from people's memory. Here are the lyrics just in case you're wondering...

[Tyra]
Kobe, how many girls have said, "I love you?"
Not like 'I love you Kobe!' like a fan
But like, for real, like, baby, marry me
I love you

[Kobe]
You're sweet
Once again (Once again)
Flawless (Flawless)
C'mon
Right
Uh, uh huh
Yo, yo, it's like this

Uh, what I live for? Basketball, beats and broads
From Italy to the US, yes, it's raw
I'm a search for the one that make my wealth feel poor
Who can ignore the spotlight life of Grandma
My falldown is how I found the aura, so I searched in
There's plenty of women with sex appeal when it's filled
Can even complete the package, all I date is actresses
Can play it safe with them, my money ain't bait
But I must take risks to find a honey that's legit
Whether she push a buck and a six, bumpin' some mad chips
Out on her own, or live out of moms and pop's home
Watch time, fashion, Adidas attire or Timbo's
I don't know, yo, these women come and go
Like the wind they blow, how do I know it's you for sure?
When God talk to me, give me a signal
But until then, all my ears hear, just let me flow
C'mon

[Tyra Banks]
K-O-B-E, I L-O-V-E you
I believe you are very fine
If you give me one chance, I promise to love you
And be with you forever more


[Kobe]
Check this out though
Real love last, now do you love me or my cash?
My name, fame, drop top, Benz or the wooden dash?
You know my stash, from Georgie cash
Platinum, US express, no paper cash
Spend it all now, or kiss to be rich cash
Hash, stocks and bonds, laugh when they crash
Are you the type that brag the jewels you flash
The type-type with your ex-man and push his Jag
The type that love no scrubs or pigeons and got mad
The type that can't stand a women with her own cash
You know, like lime, claim she ain't rat
The type that get loud in public, refrain my hand from a slap
No time for y'all, too busy for y'all
Plenty of dimes turn me on and turn me off tryin' to show off
Get lost, grow up, real women, roll up
Let yourself go, if you feel this, let me know
C'mon

HOOK

[Tyra] [Kobe]
K-O-B-E, I L-O-V-E you Bounce wit' me, bounce wit' me
K-O-B-E, I L-O-V-E you Right, right, uh, uh, uh

[Kobe]
Think ya eyein' me, all along, I'm eyein' you
The hunter becomes the hunted, girl, I'm preying on you
Beautiful, the feelings we share are mutual
Passion that's telling me so for us is suitable
Un-controllable desire flows through me
When you say my name, such lust in your slang
No time for games, the games I play, all the same
Can't get witcha, when the door hitcha, when the Lord splitcha
I figure, hour-glass figures could be dangerous
Cuz if your time runs out, they frame you for your clout
And having a past, well, I stereotype glass
All dimes ain't money, ass, and feignin' for a brother's cash
Slash fame, slash power, slash respect
All the above, makes me a supreme threat to scrubs
Love but do you want? One more 'gain, let me know
The words flow, from the bottom of your soul
C'mon

HOOK (till fade)

Ok, the Hogans are really starting to freak my shit out. A couple weeks ago we put a picture of the Hulkster with his new girlfriend who kind of looks like a cross between himself, his daughter and his ex wife. Then a couple days later we put up a picture of the Hulkster getting hard oiling down his daughter's ass. Now we have a picture of Linda Hogan and her new 19 year old boyfriend who looks exactly like her son. To quote Vince Lombardi: What the hell is going on out there? Why does everybody the Hogans associate with look exactly like each other? Don't tell me this isn't weird because I know it is. Do me a favor and mix in a brunette or something. Is that too much to ask?

BAHAHAHAHA!     Who made this line?  Have they watched the NBA at all this year?    There is NO way the Celtics lose this series.  And I’m not just saying that because I’m from Boston.    Anybody with half a brain knows that the C’s are a better team than LA.    The West has been so over rated this year it’s not even funny.    I mean weren’t the Celts like 10-2 vs. them this year?   Didn’t Tracy McGrady say the Celtics had the best defense he’d ever seen since he’d been in the league?   Didn’t we demolish the Lakers both times we played them?  And don’t give me any of this garbage about Paul Gasol either.   Guy may be the most over rated player in the history of the league.   Now if Andrew Bynum was playing it may be a different story, but he’s not.    Yeah, Kobe is a great player, but Paul Pierce outplayed him both times they met this season.  That matchup is almost a draw in my mind.   Bottom-line is that the Celtics have been the best team in the league all season long and there is no reason to believe they won’t roll over LA just like they have rolled over everybody else all year long.   You’d be a fool not to jump on this bet.  It’s like taking candy from a baby
