I was betrayed!
I thought if I voted for Barack Obama I would get laid. I never really had an interest Obama until I saw this hottie on Water Street with an Obama T-shirt; it was then I realized that if I endorsed Obama I might get laid. I picked up an Obama T-shirt and other memorabilia, wore them to bars, and would engage in pro-Obama talks with various cuties. However, these conversations usually feel flat after thirty seconds, so I decided that if I was going to get laid for certain, I would genuinely have to vote for Obama. It wasn't enough to say I supported him, I had to put my money where my mouth was. So I voted for Obama and proceeded to tell every hottie in the neighborhood about it. They usually just smiled at me and said, "Great job!" That was it! Man, I feel betrayed. What good is voting for candidate if doesn't get you laid! I hate Barack Obama! I hate life! I hate that stupid female that got me into this mess in the first place. NAWT KEWL, BRO!

The Minnesota Vikings: A History of Failure.
I loathe the Minnesota Vikings. My hatred for the Vikings began my freshman year of high school, when a kid named Mike transferred from Minnesota and kept bragging about how great the Vikings were. Mike was a dead ringer for Ralphie in A Christmas Story; he had the same round face, same glasses, and the same blonde hair. One day, my friends and I were talking about the Packers, when Mike walked up to us and said without a hint of irony, “The Vikings went to four Super Bowls!”
My friend Keith, trying desperately hard to contain his laughter, asked, “How many did they win?”
Mike paused for a few seconds, stuttering to come up with an acceptable answer, finally settling for, “That’s beside the point!”
Two years later the Packers would add a third Super Bowl trophy to their case, while the Vikings still had ZERO; to root for the Minnesota Vikings is an exercise in futility.
Let’s examine the hard evidence.
I. Mid-season meltdowns.
During the tenure of coaches Dennis Green and Mike Tice the Vikings were notorious for their melt downs during the regular season. The Vikings usually got off to a fast start, only to stumble midway through the season and never regain their footing in the race for a division title.
1996: The Vikings begin the season 4-0, analysts start picking them as Super Bowl favorites after the beat the Packers in the Metrodome 30-21. The Vikings look unstoppable, then they lose 7 out of their last 12 games, limp into the play offs with a 9-7 record and get beaten by the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card round.
1997: The Vikings get off to an 8-2 start and then miraculously lose 5 out of their last six games, finishing yet again with a 9-7 record. They beat the New York Giants in the Wild Card round, but lose to the San Francisco 49ers in the divisional round of the play offs.
2003: The Vikings appear to be Super Bowl contenders starting the season with a 6-0 record, but finish the regular season with a (SURPRISE) 9-7 record after losing to the lowly Arizona Cardinals at the very last second. The Vikings fail to make the play offs and the Green Bay Packers go instead.
2004: Daunte Culpepper has his best season ever; throwing for 39 touchdowns and only 11 interceptions, yet the Vikings only go 8-8, after getting off to a 4-1 start. The limp into the play offs, where they humiliate the Brett Favre and the Packers 31-17. The former Packers’ quarterback throws four interceptions and is the second QB in the history of the game to lose to an 8-8 team in the play offs. The Vikings then get beaten by the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round 27-13.
2006: The Vikings management hires a new head coach named Brad Childress and they get off to a promising 4-2 start, they are then exposed for the hopeless frauds they are by ending the season with a 6-10 record. Former NFL player and sports analysts Brian Baldinger is forced to admit that maybe he jumped the gun a little too early when he said that, “The Vikings were for real.”
II. The 1998 & 2000 NFC Championship Games
In 1998 the Minnesota Vikings fielded one of the greatest offenses of all time by scoring a then record breaking 556 points in the regular season (averaging 34.8 points a game). They clinch the NFC Conference with a 15-1 record and it seems that it is finally the Vikings year to win the Super Bowl. All they have to do is get by the upstart Atlanta Falcons in the NFC Championship game and the Lombardi trophy is theirs for the taking.
The Vikings blow a ten point lead and lose to the Falcons in over time 30-27, thus confirming their reputation as big game chokers.
In the 2000 season the Minnesota Vikings have an 11-2 record and only need to win one more game to win the number one seed in the NFC. They lose their last three games and go 11-5. However, despite this setback the Vikings do make it to the NFC Championship game where they are utterly humiliated by the New York Giants 41-0. Daunte Culpepper is 13/28 for 78 yards and three interceptions, where as the rather mediocre Kerry Collins throws five touchdowns against the Vikings defense. Two weeks later the Giants were destroyed by the Baltimore Ravens 34-7 in Super Bowl XXXV.
III. The Super Bowl losses.
In their four Super Bowl appearances the Vikings were outscored by their opponents 95-34. To put this in perspective the Packers scored more points in Super Bowl XXXI then the Vikings did in all four of their Super Bowls combined.
The 1969 Minnesota Vikings had one of the most dominant teams in the history of the game; they were ranked first in scoring with 379 points (27.1 points a game) while only giving up 133 points (9.5 points a game.) They were heavily favored to beat the Kansas City Chiefs (the same team the Packers routed 35-10 in Super Bowl I) in Super Bowl IV, only to be embarrassed by the AFL upstarts 23-7. The Viking Super Bowls only got worse from this moment on.
In the 1970s Fran Tarkenton returned to the Vikings and led them to three more Super Bowl appearances. The future Hall of Famer’s numbers were less than spectacular, in his three Super Bowl appearances Tarkenton is 46/89 for 489 yards, one touchdown, and six interceptions. His combined quarterback rating for all three losses is 43.7.
In Super Bowl VIII the Vikings lost to the Miami Dolphins 24-7 and were dominated by the Dolphins running game.
In Super Bowl IX the Vikings lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 16-6. The score isn’t as close as it seems as the Vikings only touchdown came on a blocked punt, while their offense gained a pathetic 119 yards against the Steelers defense.
In Super Bowl XI the Vikings lost to the Oakland Raiders 32-14.
This season the Vikings were hyped up as being possible Super Bowl contenders, because of their dominant run defense and their “unstoppable” running back Adrian Peterson. As of now the Vikings are 0-2 and are currently in the middle of a quarterback crisis. It’s looking to be yet another disappointing year for Vikings fans, but then again they should be used to it by now.

This isn't my can of Coca-Cola.
For my can of Coca-Cola was full, where as this can is half empty. Who took my can of Coca-Cola. Was is that no good Bill Thompson, the star quarterback of the high school football team and self confessed Coke addict? Or could it have been the angelic looking Sally Petty? Then there's Jenkins that soccer player from England! It is rumored he fled England due to his involvement in the Great England Train Robbery. This is a mystery that MUST be solved....for there are no more Coca-Cola cans left in the refrigerator.
Ha Ha Ha Ha! I have figured out who this culprit is. The thief is no other than........................
Why did the lights go out? I've been stab! CRAP! I've been shot. DAMN IT! This is a rather extreme for a can of Coca-Cola! I don't think I can survive such nasty wounds. Oh, I'm feeling light headed. OHHHHHHHHHH. Hey look, I found my can of Coca-Cola, it was right next to the television.

The New York Jets are going to win the Super Bowl.
Did you see how well Brett Favre played in against the Redskins in last week's pre-season game? He was PHENOMENAL! He went 5 for 6 with a touchdown pass! If this is any indication of how the regular season is going to be then the Jets are sure to win the Super Bowl. When you have number 4 as your quarterback anything is possible! For instance, he could throw the game winning touchdown or the game losing interception, depending on the circumstances. That's what makes Brett Favre so exciting to watch. Move over world the Jets have come to town. I'm so glad I bought myself a Favre Jets jersey, because to me it's far more important to be loyal to a single player than to an entire team.

When will Hollywood stop adapting television shows into unwatchable movies? This trend of adapting small screen successes into big screen bombs seems to have increased rapidly in the last few years and it looks like there is no end in sight.

I hate Sex and the City fans.
Why is that Sex and the City fans get so defensive when they hear that most men don't like the movie or show?
They always says things like, "Men hate empowered women." or some other nonsense like that.
If Sex and the City is representative of "empowered women" then the feminist movement is in trouble.
SATC embodies every negative stereotype men have about women: self-absorbed, superficial, materialistic, needy, and opportunistic. These are women who claim to be strong and independent, yet the very thought of being alone frightens them to the point that they hook up with any man who gives them a false sense of security. Being empowered implies that you are in complete control of your life, something these women are definitely not.
I don't mind that women enjoy the show, but when they start equating it with "female empowerment," or start modeling their lives after it , then something is wrong.
It's same for all the Water Street bros that model their lives after movies like Wedding Crashers or Old School, "We should join a fraternity man, we would totally score. Or better yet, let's crash a few weddings."
What's this world coming to when people start imitating the movies? Movies are fantasy, yet people seem more inclined to believe in fantasy rather than face reality. They have a harsh skepticism to the realities of the world and believe everything can be fixed with a great big hug.
When something disproves their view point, they go into denial.
Like I said, it's one thing for women to enjoy Sex and the City as escapist entertainment, it's quite another thing to view it as a way of life. The fact that so many of it's fan base act as if there is a male conspiracy to suppress the feminist movement only goes to show that too many of them take this movie way too seriously.
Most men don't give a rat's ass that there's a Sex and the City movie, because they have other things to worry about. IMDB doesn't represent the entire male community, in fact only a small percentage of the male population visits the site, yet SATC fans act as if the negative IMDB message boards are proof that the men are out to get them.
Why would men like a show/movie that is oriented to women? Seriously, if a movie's intended audience is middle aged women, it's going to deal with issues that men are not going to be able to relate, hence they more than likely won't enjoy it. Any straight man that says he liked Sex and the City is doing so in hopes of getting laid. That is all. He's not deep, he's not sensitive, he's Lucifer himself. Thank you.

This movie is not good, but it's not bad either.
It was slight better than bad, but it wasn't quite good. I mean it could have been good, but it was sabotaged by the bad...well not sabotaged, but it was lacking in a couple of areas that could have made it good, then again it did have enough positives things going for it that it wasn't bad either. It certainly wasn't a waste of time, thought I don't think I would ever watch it again. In fact, now that
think about it I kind of want my money back, but then again it did have a delightful leading lady, but the leading actor was kind of stiff, but...wait......

What Shakespeare monologue should I prepare for my audition as an extra?
As every one knows Johnny Depp is filming a movie in Wisconsin and they are currently looking for extras; therefore I have decided to WOW the producers by performing a Shakespeare monologue. Who knows, my audition might be so good that have no choice but to give me a bigger part in the movie. The only problem is I have no idea what Shakespeare monologue to perform. I was thinking of doing the "To Be or Not To Be" monologue from Hamlet, but that might be redundant, after all who hasn't done that monologue. Or I could do the Mark Anthony speech from Julius Caesar, you know, "lend me your ears." That would be awesome. I would totally blow Marlon Brando's rendition out of the water. So many monologues and so little time to choose, but I must choose if I hope to impress the producers of this upcoming Johnny Depp movie. Who knows, maybe, just maybe Wisconsin will be the next Hollywood.
What? Is he dead?
Sit thee down father, rest you.

I can't stand anti-war activists, they are possible the most annoying creatures to have ever roamed the planet. They think just because they are against war that it some how makes them superior to every one else. If you agree with them then you are enlightened, if you disagree with them, then you are a closed minded racist fascist that steals candy from babies, while cackling over a pile of gold. "War is not my voice." Yeah, well you're incessant self-righteous spiel is not my voice, but you seem to have no problem rubbing your view points in my face. Yesterday on the news they were showing activists protesting in the streets of New York, shutting down traffic, just so they could shout their tired anti-war slogans like, "Bush is a Nazi" and "No Blood For Oil." These are the same people who get upset when Christian groups impose their view points on the world by protesting films like The DaVinci Code, yet some how see no problem in shutting down traffic so they can impose their view points.
Even more troubling are the extreme activists, the ones who dress up in bloody soldier uniforms and stage fake tortures for the public. What's even more troubling is that they do this all with smiles on their faces, cause as we all know nothing is more comical than seeing a person get tortured. No wonder the Saw films are big hits! They're comedies! Then you get the activists who bring themselves to near orgasmic states by spouting out the number of fatalities the war has brought upon Americans and Iraqis. I personally think anti-war activists secretly love the war, because it brings meaning to their otherwise meaningless lives. It gives them something to bitch and feel good about, otherwise they would probably fritter their day away at Starbucks, drinking over priced coffee, while writing crappy poems about how no one understands them.
OK, I'm generalizing here, but anti-war activists to the exact same thing, so let's call it even.
The worst protest I ever saw involved three college students putting on a skit in which a guy wearing a "United States" shirt was hitting a guy wearing an "Iraq" shirt with smelly fish, then a girl wearing a "United Nations" shirt came in with a blow horn and shouted, "Screw you Uncle Sam, you're over stepping your bounds." This might have been effective had it not been for the fact that they were all laughing during the skit, instead they just looked like a trio of pompous idiots.
There was an interview with the jackass behind the skit and with a smug look of triumph on his face he said, "We came up with the skit while drinking coffee." Would that be Starbucks coffee? Nothing like a heartless corporation to help get your creative juices flowing! Right comrade!
I'm sure most people reading this rant will probably think I'm pro-Bush stooge who supports the Iraq War, well sorry to disappoint, but I'm not. I just think that these activists are doing more to hurt the anti-war cause than to help it. They kind of reminiscent of extreme Packers fans, they ones who will shout idiotic slogans, dress up in full Packers regalia and beat their children when the Packers lose. They may support the same team I do, but I find them utterly embarrassing regardless.
Even more troubling are the extreme activists, the ones who dress up in bloody soldier uniforms and stage fake tortures for the public. What's even more troubling is that they do this all with smiles on their faces, cause as we all know nothing is more comical than seeing a person get tortured. No wonder the Saw films are big hits! They're comedies! Then you get the activists who bring themselves to near orgasmic states by spouting out the number of fatalities the war has brought upon Americans and Iraqis. I personally think anti-war activists secretly love the war, because it brings meaning to their otherwise meaningless lives. It gives them something to bitch and feel good about, otherwise they would probably fritter their day away at Starbucks, drinking over priced coffee, while writing crappy poems about how no one understands them.
OK, I'm generalizing here, but anti-war activists to the exact same thing, so let's call it even.
The worst protest I ever saw involved three college students putting on a skit in which a guy wearing a "United States" shirt was hitting a guy wearing an "Iraq" shirt with smelly fish, then a girl wearing a "United Nations" shirt came in with a blow horn and shouted, "Screw you Uncle Sam, you're over stepping your bounds." This might have been effective had it not been for the fact that they were all laughing during the skit, instead they just looked like a trio of pompous idiots.

Why have a meaningful conversation when you can quote movies?
Yesterday my girlfriend tried to have a "deep" conversation with me, it was rather annoying. When she would ask me a question I would respond by saying, "I hate them all! Not just the men, but the women and children." Then I would laugh at my genuine wit for ten minutes, because I was quoting Star Wars Episode: Attack of the Clones. I'm so clever. After desperately trying to get into my head for half an hour my annoying girlfriend finally threw in the towel and I was free to watch Super Bad in peace. Hmmmmm..... you know what would be funny? If I got an ID that said McLovin' on it. That would be hilarious. It's would be like that one time when my bros and I tried to crash a wedding after watching the hilarity that was Wedding Crashers. Or when we attempted to join a fraternity after watching Old School. Or my personal favorite, when I tried to slay vampires after watching Van Helsing, only to find that vampires don't exist.

We're alright I guess......I mean, I wouldn't say we're the best team out there, but we certainly aren't the worst. We could lose this upcoming game, but then again we could win it. Anything is possible, I guess. I wouldn't say we're odds on favorites to win it, but I can't say we're odds on favorites to lose it either. I mean, we're a pretty decent team. We're kind of like the movie Jurassic Park III, a serviceable, if completely unremarkable follow to the wonderful original. That describe this team in a nutshell, we're fairly serviceable but we're not going to win a championship any time soon....or maybe we will. Who knows? I guess anything is possible. Personally, I don't see us winning the big game. I see us getting far, but not that far. Any other questions? Good!

I can't believe it...Brett Favre is retiring! After 17 seasons in the NFL, Brett Favre has decided to all it quits. This is actually very shocking to me, considering the great season he had. I was expecting Favre to come back for at least one more season and (at least try) to go out a Super Bowl champ. WOW! He will be sorely missed by all the Green Bay Packers fans.

This isn't the right movie?
I clearly bought a ticket to see Step Up 2: The Streets, but for some reason you guys are showing The Dark Knight. What's going on? This most definitely isn't the right movie! What do you mean it's a trailer for The Dark Knight? OHHHHH, I see you mean it's like a preview....ohhhh....OK, I understand. So you will be showing Step Up 2? OK! For a second I thought I walked into the wrong movie. Ha! Isn't that funny? I can't wait to tell all my friends this delightful story, I'm sure they will amused. Thank you!

So much for the 2007 Patriots being the greatest team of all time!
How does a team win 18 consecutive games, yet some how manages to lose the most important game of the season? All season long we've heard pundits, sport writers, analysts, etc. talk about how the 2007 Patriots are "GREATEST TEAM OF ALL TIME!" How is it a team that broke all records during the regular season were able to only score 14 measle points against a pretty mediocre defense? Oh well! It's great to know neither Randy Moss nor Junior Seau have Super Bowl rings. Both went to the Patriots because they were convinced they would win a Super Bowl, well not this year.
However, it annoys me to know that the Packers were essentially a field goal away from being Super Bowl champions. They could have taken the Patriots, but blew it. AAAHHH!

Shaky cameras = brilliant cinema!
I just saw Cloverfield and it was BRILLIANT! I mean it had lots of shaky camera movement and people screaming for an hour and a half, I mean it was really intense bro! I nearly spilled hot nachos cheese on my pants because I was so rattled up while watching this flick. Not since Peter Jackson's King Kong (which I heard was a remake of something) have I been so moved by a movie. I give five Fs for Frighteningly Fabulous Fun Fuckin' Film. It wasn't as intense as Fight Club, but what is?

One last football post before I get back to being random:
Even though the Giants beat the Packers, I hope they go into Arizona and pull the greatest upset of all time by beating the Patriots. All season long we've had to hear about how the Patriots are the "GREATEST FOOTBALL TEAM OF ALL TIME!" Meanwhile, we've had to witness countless analysts, pundits, and sports writers masturbate to footage of Tom Brady throwing touchdown passes, "Is there a greater quarterback than Tom Brady? He's so pretty! If he asked me for a blow job, I would give it to him." And when they weren't talking about how beautiful Tom Brady was, they were writing about how Randy Moss had become a model citizen, before he was slapped with a restraining order. That's why it would be great if the Giants do the unthinkable and beat the Patriots, because their "perfect" season would be just another footnote in sport's history, kind of like the 1998 Vikings.

Why did it have to end like this?
I can tolerate the fact that the Packers lost to the Giants, what I can't tolerate is the fact that Brett Favre threw the game losing interception. It's pretty sad that when people think of the 2007 season, they won't think of the records Favre broke, but rather that costly interception in over time. It brings back memories of the Divisional round in Philadelphia in which Favre threw the game losing interception in over time as well.
All in all, I'm not disappointed in the season the Packers had, they completely exceeded my expectations, I thought at best they would lose in the wild card round of the play offs, I just wish it wouldn't have ended on such an ugly note. Oh well!
The Giants completely outplayed the Packers at Lambeau, that's all there is to it. The Packers didn't give the game away, but the Giants nearly did. It should have never gone into over time in the first place, but the Giants kicker missed a field goal. I wish he would have made the field goal in regulation, just so Favre wouldn't have thrown that interception, but that's the way the ball bounces.
I'm also not stupid enough to say, "We'll be back next season," because it's hard to get to NFC Championship game in two consecutive years. Who knows?

My last couple of posts have been football related, therefore I thought I would talk about something completely different....unfortunately I have nothing much to say. In fact, the only thing on my mind is the Packers vs. the Giants game. No.....no.....I must keep my mind off football. |

Eli Manning is my hero (up until next Sunday any ways).
This may be the best weekend of all time, not only did the Packers slaughter the Seahawks, but the Giants beat the Cowboys. Tony Romo once again choked in the clutch, this time instead of fumbling a snap, he threw an interception in the end zone. Thank you Eli Manning! All season long analysts have been criticizing Eli Manning for his quarterback play, while crowning Tony Romo as the second coming of Jesus. After the Cowboys lucky win against the Detroit Lions, sportswriters and analysts started calling Romo a "Legend" and every time he completed a pass they would say stupid things like, "That's vintage Tony Romo!" Vintage Tony Romo? The guy hasn't even played two full seasons and he's already a legend. All I know is that Tony Romo is 0 - 2 in the post season, while Eli Manning is 2 -2. I'm so happy we no longer have to hear about how delightful Tony Romo is!
It was great to see the Green Bay Packers slaughter the Seattle Seahawks. The best part of the game was the constant close ups of Mike Holmgren's face turning red and shouting profanities at the refs. I'm surprised he hasn't blamed the refs for the losing the game for his team.

Shannon Sharpe is an IDIOT!
Why is that practically every NFL analyst is anti-Packers? Yesterday on the CBS pre-game show Shannon Sharpe predicted the Seattle Seahawks to beat the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau field, because in his opinion Seattle has more "play off experience." Hey Shannon here's a little tidbit for you, the Seahawks have yet to win a play off game on the road, under Mike Holmgren they are 0-3 on the road in the post-season. When Holmgren was with the Green Bay Packers he was an average road coach at best. It's a Holmgren tendency that haunts not only teams he's coached, but teams coached by his former assistant coaches as well: Andy Reid and the Eagles; Jon Gruden and the Buccaneers; and Dick Jauron and the Bills.
As a Packers fan, I have to say that I am not that worried about the Seahawks, because their quarterback Matt Hasselbeck (or as I call him Matt Baldyhead) always makes a mistake at the most inopportune moment. Hasselbeck is a cocky mother fucker, to the extent that he thinks he is incapable of making a bad throw, then as expected he makes a bad throw that gets intercepted and run back for a touchdown. I predict that Hasselbeck will have at least two interceptions against the Packers on Saturday, then Holmgren's face will turn all red and he'll start throwing a tantrum, finding a way to blame his team's pathetic performance on the refs.
PS: I really, really hate Seahawks fans, because they are all huge phonies. They are the true definition of fair weathered fans. When the Seahawks are winning they are shouting stupid phrases like, "SEAHAWKS RAWK,"when the Seahawks are losing they don't even bat an eye, they just go to the nearest Starbucks and order an over priced Latte. They don't deserve a Super Bowl win.
