January 2008 Archives

Another day in Los Angeles, another vanity plate. I am assuming this guy is a Star Wars fan. What I can't figure out is does he really think that a Sith Lord would be caught dead driving an X-type?

I took some time last month to discuss my man crush on Adrian Peterson. Over a month has passed, so I think it is safe to discuss another one of my man crushes. This man crush is so big it actually involves two people: Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony. I never played football in high school, so my NFL man crushes are mostly an appreciation of awesome fantasy stats. I did play baketball in high school, and grew up wanting to play in college or the NBA, so my NBA man crushes are a little more intense. I can't even discuss my number one man crush, Shawn Marion because I fear I might faint. I can talk a little bit about AI and Melo however.

Massholes, have you no shame? This guy needed a lot of lotion to watch the Pats this year. Every win was another chance to pleasure himself to images of Tom Brady and Bill Bellichik, and with 17 wins and no losses for the Patriots, oh baby, he must like it raw.

I promised my friend IndianJones that I would watch the AFC Championship game with him this weekend. I am not sure if it can be worse than watching the Red Sox win another world series, but dudes like the jab in the video above really make me worry.

Make sure to check out my latest at Gridskipper, where I talk about lunch in Beverly Hills and dating venues from The Hills.

I am huge football fan, and usually play in at least three or four fantasy leagues each fall. This year, I made it to the playoffs in all four of my leagues, and even won one of my leagues. Following stats from your fantasy league is fun, but it is not as fun as watching the players you grew up rooting for play and win. I am a NY Giants fan, but they haven't been that fun of a team to watch in recent years. They have a lot of talent, but it seemed like they were more talk than substance half of the time. This year, they had their ups and downs, but are in the NFC championship game, which means I haven't been this excited for football in January for a long time.

Another morning drive in Los Angeles, another silly vanity plate. I have no idea why this guy (and it was a guy) thinks he's "2 fly". Perhaps it's because he is saving the earth by driving a hybrid. All I know is that I have had Offspring in my head all day.
