Judge Tells Perv Turn Over Edwards Porno

The viewing parties will have to come to an end for Andrew Young and his wife.  Friday a judge order they turn over the sex tape that allegedly has John Edwards and his former mistress Rielle Hunter in it.  The tape allegedly was shot while Hunter was pregnant with the "love child." 

Ever since the story broke I have wondered what is this pervert Young doing with this video. Turn it over already.  It is just gross.  Then I remembered a Jerry Springer episode I saw several years ago or wait was it Maury or Geraldo?  Never mind the point is the episode was about guys that were turned on by porno movies involving pregnant woman.  Now I can't confirm this, but there was a guest who was behind a curtain that looked a lot like this pervert Andrew Young. 

Anyway, I'm pretty sure it was Springer because a fight broke out when a pregnant lady in the audience got angry at the "perv" behind the curtain (probably Young).  Jerry and his security team had to break it up.  Anyone else see that episode?

Capitals Win 12th in a Row, DC Freezes Over

I remember my first pro sports experience as a youngster.  I was 4 or 5 years old and I went and saw the Washington Capitals play the LA Kings at Capital Centre.  My entire family went thanks to my aunt's connection with the Kings. There must have been at least 100 other people at the game.  It was the franchise's second year of existence; they won 11 games the entire season. 

They got better in the 80s making the playoffs 14-straight times. Unfortunately the playoffs would always end with epic heart break.  Remember the opening round of the playoffs in 1987? Caps up 3-1 in series on the NY Islanders, who rally to force a Game 7.  It was no ordinary Game 7, it would be known as the infamous Easter Epic that finally ended at 1:56 am on Easter Sunday. The Capitals despite dominating most of the game, outshooting the Islanders 75–52 lose in overtime when Pat LaFontaine scored for the Islanders.

I remember fans saying the day the Caps win a Stanley Cup, hell will freeze over.  We are not there quite yet, but DC is certainly freezing over again this weekend.  The Caps are a breath of fresh air in a pro sports town where we have seen a lot of losers and I'm not even talking about the Politicians.  I mean another overhyped Skins team did not deliver and the best Wizards roster in decades is well...AWFUL.  (A Positive side note on the snow coming.  It could very well keep the Wizards from getting back in time to lose again on the home floor Saturday night.) 

Unfortunately it is still a long, long, journey to the Stanley Cup Finals, let alone hoisting the Cup.  In two weeks the red hot Caps will take a break with the rest of the league for the Winter Olympics.  The Caps best players though will not be resting, but representing their respective countries.  How will it effect the season?  No one knows and there are still questions with the defense and goaltending that may need to be addressed by the trade deadline.  Oh and I have yet to mention the f-ing Penguins likely standing in the way like they have some many other times? 

That still won't stop me from expecting the best from this team.  They have the best player in the world sorry Sid in Alex Ovechkin, young stars like Nicholas Backstrom, Alex Semin, and veteran Mike Knuble has been a great fit, thanks Flyers.  Anyway, too many positives to worry about the possible pitfalls, so for now enjoy the ride and the snow in New Hockey Town USA.

Super Bowl Week is a Super Bore

Ok, first let me get this out of the way.  Yes I wish I was in Miami, Florida, eating and drinking on some station's dime.  No doubt, so there will be a tone of envy and jealousy in this blog.  Now that is out of the way.....one question for you.  Have we learned a damn thing about the Saints or Colts we already didn't know before this week of hype and non-stories?

Here's a sample of what has been covered so far on each side. 
Saints:                                                      
1. Great story b/c of Hurricane Katrina          
2. Peyton's dad played for them                     
3. Drew Brees Great QB and Great guy 
4. Reggie Bush likes Kim Kardashian's large ass
5. Owner Tom Benson has seen lots of losing   

Colts:
1. Great story b/c they f-d Baltimore
2. Peyton plays for them                                                                       
3. Peyton has a large brain under that helmet
4. Freeney's ankle is as large as Kim's ass
5. Peyton, Peyton, Hatian WR, Peyton
 

Bankers get a bad rap for their big bonuses and rightfully so, but we need an audit of money spent and worthwhile work achieved from Super Bowl week. I mean most of this crap could have been written while sitting on the hotel room toilet or from South Beach.  I know it sounds like I'm there. 

Two Great Nights of TV Thanks ABC

Thanks to the return of "Lost" and the best comedy on TV since Seinfeld, "Modern Family", ABC owns me Tuesday and Wednesday nights.  First, I have no clue how there are two sets of realities going on with the cast of "Lost."  I mean the explosion happens and the plane doesn't crash, yet there is this whole other thing happening on the island.  I still love the show although I feel lost when watching "Lost" most of the time.  They should run a disclaimer that says creators of this show are on mind altering drugs. 

"Modern Family" meanwhile just gets funnier each week, a Moon Landing!  Last night it saved me from overanalyzing the Hoyas meltdown against South Florida.  Where did all the Hoyas fans go?  I mean Saturday the place is packed with Duke in town.  I'm sure they will draw well with Villanova on Saturday unless it snows out.  Bottom line... the Hoya fan is like a lot of the others in DC, front runners.  Good news for the Hoyas though, everyone is average in College Hoops this season with perhaps the exception of Kansas and Kentucky, but raise your hand if you trust John Calipari in the big game?  Heck he blamed "God's Will" two years ago when he choked the title away against the Jayhawks.  So although many love the unpredictability of this years College Basketball, I love the predictabilty of TV's two best shows. 

Hostage Crisis Reaches Day 3 in NC

It amazes me how soft this generation of kids is in this great country of ours and  it pisses me off too.  What used to be considered parenting or coaching is now considered child abuse.  Vince Lombardi would have never had a Championship trophy named after him if he coached in this decade.  He was way too tough and clearly would have been run off.  Could you imagine if that sissy kid of Craig James played for Frank Kush or Woody Hayes?  OMG..as the kids like to say. 

I know it is called progress.  WE know more today than we did back then.  Bottled water, bike helmets, car seats until your 16, mouth pieces for PE, No PE, and extra sunscreen. 

Anyway, here's my point....I never walked up a hill 2 miles to school with no shoes, but I sure as hell went to school with a little snow on the sidewalks every once and a while. Even my kids are now saying being home  is a bore and why can't we go to school.  However, the school district is just covering their backsides in this sue everyone society we live in.  Now the kids get ready for Saturday school this weekend and a shortened Spring Break and guess who pays the price for those goofy schedules?  That's right the parents.  Isn't progress great? 

What is Exclusive Anymore?

Remember when exclusive actually meant exclusive?  I have thought a lot about this word "exclusive" while watching coverage of the John Edwards scandal lately.  Not "exclusive" in the sense of Edwards and his wife, which apparently was not very exclusive.  No I mean from the media standpoint.  When a network says they have an exclusive, I figure that means they have the interview and no one else does. 

However, in this day and age of show business/news it is all about how you sell it to the public.  Yes and sadly that does mean "deceive" or bend the truth.  I say this b/c two tv stations here in Raleigh, NC, claimed to be the exclusive place to see former Edwards aide, Andrew "Judas" Young get interviewed.

First of all Young has talked to every media outlet at this point about his book, so big damn deal.  I mean "Cat Fancy" and "Horse and Hound" had him on the cover this week.  The guy gets around.  Secondly, clearly neither station one upped the other yet they wanted to b.s. their viewers just in case they were not paying attention. 

Late breaking news Andrew and Cheri Young need to turn over the Edwards sex tape.  No word on whether or not they will or is they will continue watching it together.  Either way I know one or two stations here will have an exclusive story on it even if "Cat Fancy" or "Horse and Hound" had it first.

Tebow Pro Choice But is He a Pro QB?

NFL teams could care less is Tim Tebow is pro life or pro choice.  What they do care about is whether or not he can actually play Quarterback in the NFL. If he threw the ball like Matt Ryan he could be the Devil himself and NFL GM's would draft him.  So far the evidence suggests he is no pro at least at Quarterback.  He makes Danny Wuerffel look like Dan Marino with his wobbly passes.  Everyone talks about his release point, but what about his velocity or lack there of?  Nothing he did or didn't do at the Senior Bowl should be shocking.   Struggled taking snaps from center, showed poor mechanics, and thanked God. 

On the College Gridiron Tebow could do it all and even circumsize babies in the off-season.  He was a model citizen, who one day may really lose it when he realizes all the fun and opportunity he missed in Gainesville.  He probably will never be a starting QB in the NFL.  Sure he could be a career backup, great locker room guy, leader, etc. Some sucker team like the Jaguars may even take him with an early pick to fire up their disinterested fan base or ego maniac Bill Belichick may take him just to prove a point.  And if all else fails he could always replace Pat Robertson on the 700 Club.
