Three days of updates... With so much to update it's
unbelievable. So as Willy
Wonka once said "So much time and so little to do. Wait a minute. Strike
that. Reverse it."
What are the few things I'm looking to talk about in today's little presentation
of the truth:
> Brett Favre: The Son Who Gave It 156%
> Bob Gets Sued
> The newest Santa Look A Like Arrested
> And much more of course, it wouldn't be HACH
Thus
leading to the greatest performance of one man's life after the worst day
of his life. Brett Favre who lost his father a little over 24 hours before
kick off for the Monday
Night Football game, showed everyone that injury nor heartache can 'cause
him to miss one start of his now unbelievable 205th (188th) consecutive start
at quarterback for the Green Bay
Packers.
Favre not only led the Packers on to the field, but also led them to a 41-7
victory over the Oakland Raiders keeping
their Playoff chances still strong. As Favre lead the show with a performance
that he has never put up before in his life. Favre in the first half alone
threw for 311 yards, never before done by Favre in the first half, threw
for 4 touchdowns and compeleted 15 of 18 passes.
The Favre Show was not only unbelievable in the first half, but at the end
of the game when he finished with 399 yards passing and 22 of 30 with a passer
raiting of . Also finishing the game with 345 carrer TDs putting him in 2nd
behind Dan Marino in TDs thrown who has 420 (oddly, my birthday). Adding
that 12 of those 22 completed passes we're by 12 different receivers thrown
to longtime friends Wesley Walls and Antonio Freeman.
"I knew that my dad would have wanted me to play," Favre said. "I love him
so much, and I love this game. It's meant a great deal to me, to my dad,
to my family, and I didn't expect this kind of performance. But I know he
was watching tonight."
"I
just said, 'I love you," said Walls, who scored his first TD with the Packers.
"He played an amazing game for us, and we all felt we had to do the same
for him. Sometimes in special circumstances, you make special plays. I think
it's fair to say we were inspired by Irv."
Other Packers who also dead unbelivable we're Javon Walker who caught two
of Favre's TD passes finished the day with 4 receptions and 124 yards. As
for Ahmen Green he added to his total yards from scrimmage with 127 rushing
and a 2 yard reception from Favre. Ryan Longwell also added to his All-Time
Packer scoring record with two field goals and four extra points.
As for the Defense who held Raiders to just one touchdown, one I believe
was caused by a referee interferring with a possibile tackle which could
have been made by Darren Sharper. But back up corner back Michael Hawthrone,
who filled in for Mike McKenzie, caught two interceptions one from Rick Mirer
and the other from Rob Johnson. Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila added with three sacks
of his own as Aaron Kampman and Bhawoh Jue each added with a sack of their
own.
Yet the only downside for the Packers we're the amount of penalties 10 for
70 yards, which oddly and shockingly out numbered the Raiders penalities
who had 3 for 25 yards. With one of the Packers penalities bringing back
a touchdown scored on the punt team lead by Antonio Chatman. As well as a
possibile touchdown pass dropped by David Martin, but he did score one
earlier.
Oh, and his QB rating was 154.9. The highest you can get is 158.3.
This victory keeps the Packers well alive in the Playoff chase. As they are
now 9 and 6 tied with division rival
Minnesota Vikings and former Green
Bay head coach Mike Holmgren's Seattle
Seahawks. But if the season finished today Green Bay would be in with
as the last Wild Card over the Seahawks. Damn those
Kansas City Cheifs.
In other sports news, Syracuse Orangemen's former
Forward Carmelo Anthony helped the Denver
Nuggets capture another win this time over the
Memphis Grizzlies. Plus coming
soon my true rant on the MLB versus the
AL East. As well as why Warren Sapp's "Slave Master" comment might have been
a psychic for all of the recent fines most of which are quite stupid. Did
you know Jon Kitna got fined for not wearing a
NFL hat?
Moving onto the Bob story of the day, Bob Guiney, one of the stars of the
popular ABC-TV reality series "The Bachelor,"
has been sued for breach of contract by the show's producers.
In a lawsuit filed Friday, Guiney and his record company, Wind-up Records,
were sued for promoting his new CD, "3 Sides," and music video. And Syndicated
Productions Inc. a division of Telepictures Productions wants
to stop Guiney from making any more public appearances in connection with
the CD.
The producers also are asking for unspecified monetary damages.
Stars of "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette" series sign contracts with
exclusivity clauses prohibiting them from promoting any other products without
permission, according to the lawsuit.
Guiney caught the public's eye in the first season of "The Bachelorette."
After being rejected, he was picked to star in the fourth season of "The
Bachelor."
Michael J. O'Connor, a lawyer for And Syndicated Productions, did not immediately
return a call seeking comment. There was no immediate response Sunday to
a call seeking comment from Wind-up Records.
My thoughts? This lawsuit won't go anywhere if Bob had this singing career
before. If not, then nothing.
In other television news..................... HE'S BACK! or WE GOT HIM! You
choose the expression you want with this story of the return of ALF.
Yes, Alf. The 7,385 signers of the "Bring Back ALF" online petition letter
have finally gotten their wish.
The furry, cat-craving extraterrestrial star of the 1980s NBC sitcom, most
recently spotted slumming it for long-distance services 10-10-220 and
1-800-COLLECT, has just landed his own show on Nickelodeon.
ALF's Hit Talk Show, starring the sarcastic puppet voiced by Paul Fusco,
is a new series in development for Nick at Nite. Perhaps taking a hint from
his latest 10-10-220 commercial where he channels Johnny Carson, the show
will feature ALF (short for Alien Life Form--his given name is Gordon Shumway)
interviewing a host of celebs.
The gabfest is part of an effort by the Nickelodeon and TV Land channels
(both owned by media giant Viacom) to garner a more adult audience in the
post-kiddie viewing hours. Among the other shows on tap are two new
adult-friendly animated series from Bill Cosby and Kelsey Grammer.
For now Nickelodeon is banking on the alien appeal of ALF. Surprisingly,
the hirsute space oddity has retained a major cult following since NBC pulled
ALF off the air in 1990 after five seasons of dissing the daily activities
of the Tanner clan, his de facto family after his spaceship crashed into
their garage.
My nigga be back! My nigga Alf is back in the hiz-house. It's just overally
good to see shit I grew up with in the 80s return. Hell, I don't want to
brag but I swear more and more shit from the 80s seems to be coming out every
day. I've never seen stuff from the 70s, 60s, 50s, etc. come back like
this.
It's all because I was born in the 80s.
Now it's once again time to see who got arrested today in Iraq.
Oh and Mad Cow Disease has been found. It was found in Washington (the state).
Now that's just one man's opinion. And I just keep it plain and simple. |
