5. United Way Sam Adams- Don’t not panic and make sure to keep an eye on Sam being saved in the pool, he looks more like a dead fish than Squintz in Sandlot.

 

4. Any The Rick Commercial – Okay, so this is only an outtakes segment, but it is the culmination of all that made the Rick my hero.

 

3. I Am Tiger Woods – Disguises at their best.

 

2. Tracy Morgan NFL 2k Football - The same guy that wants some discharge on his big mac, drops more one-liners than David Spade.

 

1. Any Michael Jordan Commercial- Watching a Michael Jordan Gatorade Commercial makes you feel like you need go try to find buy Gatorade in a glass bottle. Watching a Michael Jordan Nike Commercial makes you feel like you want to go fight with William Wallace in the big battle in Braveheart.

Hazel Moves On

untitled.JPGIt’s being reported that the object of many a Red Sox fan’s affection will be leaving their favorite network, NESN. Mae spent about 4 years at the New England based network after sometime at Rogers Sportsnet in Canada. I was once in a class where Hazel spoke about how she broke into the sports broadcasting field, and was blown away with her answer. Seconds after hearing about how Tina Cervasio spent many years trying to break into the field, taking many low key jobs and countless extra classes, Hazel Mae stood up and said that one day she was just walking the streets of Toronto when someone approached her about hosting a national sports show. I don’t blame them, she kind of looks like Tila Tequila, and has a history of getting down with athletes. The most notable of these rumored flings being the married Terry Francona or the king of weak ass triple-doubles, Ricky Davis. Anyway, there have been rumors in the past of her moving on to ESPN, and I’m thinking she’ll end up on air in October, just in time for the MLB playoffs.

Misery, And I’m Not Talking Kathy Bates

42-17131105.jpgForbes just published an article listing what they believe to be the Ten Most Miserable Sports Cities. They based these rankings on different numbers and ratios with pretty much a blatant disregard for these actual misery of the fans in these cities. Evidence supporting this fact being the Atlanta is number 1, with Cleveland and Philadelphia being 8 and 9. Here are my top 5.

1. Cleveland – The Indians were a joke before the Carlos Baerga era, and the constant highlight of MJ’s jumpshot over Craig Ehlo does not help. Not to mention a football team that left and was re-created, while continuing to make fans feel like Tim Couch(pussy who cries) on a daily basis.

2. Philadelphia – When a city is ready to boo Santa Claus, then you know there are some mental issues. Probably the most annoying of all fans, with their constant Eagles chants, while also being the most likely to go home and put on lipstick like Steve Buscemi in Billy Madison and contemplate their “People to Kill” list, #1 – Joe Carter.

3. Boston – Sure this city has been on fire since 2001, but it really does not make any difference for the fans. They’ll still be the first one’s to bitch about officiating or make themselves feel like the victim. It’s kind of like a city full of ex-girlfriends, or more accurately, a city full of Livia Sopranos.

4. Buffalo – Four Superbowl losses on Madden would make me want to kill myself, let alone in real-life. Also, arguably their biggest star was Orenthal James himself. Maybe O.J. could help out Buffalonians, if you know what I mean, when the Bills leave for an actual city(Toronto) in the near future.

5. Twin Cities (Minneapolis, St. Paul) – First of all, there is an identity crisis, which can’t help, kind of like having gay parents, you’re already at a disadvantage. The persona of over-acheiving before under-acheiving has definitely taken its toll, and Gary Anderson‘s Norwood in 1998 doesn’t help. To tell you the truth, they probably would have been higher on the list if it wasn’t for Gordon Bombay and the Mighty Ducks.
