I Have a Dream...and it's not Final Exams!


Hot Bitch of the Day:

Shandi Finnessey
You might know Shandi Finnessey as the female co-host on the game show Lingo. But before that she was Miss USA 2004 and runner-up for Miss Universe that same year. I was watching Lingo earlier and she looked particularly incredible today. I knew what I had to do. Shandi, you are the Hot Bitch of the Day! Add that to your resume.


Bizarre Story of the Week:

Three female KFC workers were fired on Sunday after they apparently took a bath in the KFC sink. If that isn't weird enough, they actually took pictures of themselves in the bath (wearing bikinis thank god) and then posted them on Myspace...further proving why Myspace is corrupting young girls. Beware if you click the link to read the story as you will quickly understand why these girls work at KFC. I mean it, this is your warning.




Relax...Finals Could Be Worse!

Its finals time, and that means college kids around the country are worrying about failing final exams. They are worrying about failing classes. They are even worrying about the possible ramifications this semester will have on their cumulative GPA. So as a public service to all these students caught up in a mountain of academic worries, I've composed a short list of things scarier than failure.

-Starbucks Double Shots Sure it seems like fun to have Survivor or a bleacher full of college sports fans following you around adding your name into popular songs, but in reality it would be very scary having either of these two things come true. It would get old listening to "Rick's the man, watching Step Brothers, creepily staring at Mary Steenburgen". Or imagine the eight hour of your shift in the dining hall, its 11 pm, and some little cunt tells you she wants a pancake from the grill cause the ones you put out dont look cooked enough. You're pissed off, tired, and annoyed enough already, but guess what... you drank a Starbucks Double Shot on your break and now a bleacher full of college sports fans are chanting your name to the tune of "Rock and Roll Part 2" by Gary Glitter, a fate I wish only upon only a few of my worst enemies.

-Zombie Puppies Whats cuter than a little puppy? Not to much, thats for damn sure. Whenever someone sees a puppy they just want to hold it. Its just human nature. But what if that adorable puppy isnt just a puppy, but also...undead. You pick up the puppy in accordance to human nature, the puppy bites you, you turn into a zombie, you bite someone else, the puppy is still out looking for fresh blood, bites another person(or even another puppy!)... as you see the only end result to this spiral of events is a zombie apocalypse.

-People with Rat Tails These people are complete wild cards. Whenever I see one coming I walk the other way. People with rat tails can be as timid as a lamb, or as destructive as a billy goat. The problem is which one will you get?

I Have, err....HAD a Dream!

So I've had the Celtics on my mind a lot lately. Not that this is anything new...but after the last two wins against the Hornets and the Jazz, the Celtics have improved to 23-2 including a 15 game win streak. Watching James Posey get his ring was also nice to see and the best part was that I didn't have to see him Man-Hug his new teammates. I compared Posey to an ex-girlfriend that I'm not totally over yet. Watching him play for another team is
like watching your Ex out with another guy. You can imagine what watching him hug other players would be like. So you can see why the Celtics showed up in my dreams the other night.

Anyway, I had a weird dream the other night that I was on the Boston Celtics. Not just me, but all of my teammates from my senior year High School team. It was like we combined West High School 2006 with the 2008 Boston Celtics. But on this team I was a nobody, just like the rest of my high school teammates and we rode the bench for the Boston Celtics. We had to sit behind the bench, some of us wouldn't even suit up. And the worst part is that nobody on the Celtics would talk to us. Nobody except, of course, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo. It was like every other player on the team was too good for us or above us....but Ray and Rondo weren't. They treated us like equals, they talked to us like we were part of the team. And the funny thing is that this all seemed so realistic. It's exactly what would happen if this was a real scenario. It's why a young Rajon Rondo was infatuated with Ray Allen and the way he carried himself the minute he arrived in Boston. The reason Rondo started to copy everything that Allen did on and off the court. There are few good guys in sports these days and Ray Allen is one of them. As much as I love KG and Paul Pierce, in my dream they were assholes....and unfortunately I feel like they would be in real life as well. But you can't blame them, it's just the culture of sports these days. A culture where wealth, fame and success is thrust upon it's individuals. Some who just don't know how to handle it.

I had a dream...but now I have a dream. I have a dream that one day we will have more Ray Allen's in sports. I have a dream that one day we will have more Rajon Rondo's who come into the league looking for role models, not looking to only make a name for themselves. I have a dream that the Pacman Jones', the Plaxico Burress', the Stephon Marbury's will not be tolerated because of their character and not just because of their skill. I have a dream today! Ok so I'm not Dr. Martin Luther King, but I am a dreamer. In all seriousness though, I'm concerned with what's happening in sports. Especially with what's going to happen in 2010 when somebody shelves out an enormous amount of money for Lebron James. The financial landscape in sports will change again and it's not going to be pretty. An occupation that is already tainted with greed looks like it will only get worse. So be thankful for the Ray Allen's that we have in sports today, they're hard to come by these days.
