Not Watching The Big Game?

This is a post for all my dear readers who find themselves killing a few seconds on my blog instead of watching the Super Bowl. Or for those who are watching the game, and need some other sort of distraction.

Basically, here's a few of my favorite video clips. Enjoy!

Snowed-In Music

So, I was snowed-in today. I was able to get some other work done, even though I really don't like doing my job stuff in the house. Even when I was in college and the Sem, I had to do my studying in the library.

But I digress.

Anyway, here's a little music for you. It seems to fit the moment of just being at home and watching the snow blow around outside. Enjoy!

Dear readers, here is Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash!

Guns and Pants Revisited

Back in December, I posted a very brief commentary on the Plaxico Burress incident. Here's a follow-up to that story.

This video clip is directly from the good people at ProFootballTalk.com. This is my most trusted source for NFL news. Plenty of good issues to think about in the clip.

I hope this is OK, PFT guys. I link to your site at the bottom of the blog. Plus, I give proper credit.

This'll Tide You Over

So, there's no football this weekend. But, I got something almost as good for you. Here's comedian Frank Caliendo doing John Madden. Hope this tides you over until the Super Bowl!

Avery's Suspension

By now, this clip has been seen around the world. It features Dallas Stars hockey player Sean Avery making some off-color remarks regarding players who date his ex-girlfriends.

I felt like I had to comment on this. See, regular readers (going back to the old MySpace and Yahoo 360 days) know that I've had several relationship which ended badly. Some of my reactions to those badly-ended relationships ended up on those old blogs. And those comments have gotten me into varying degrees of trouble at times. So, in a sense, this post is really a plea for leniency for Sean Avery.

Is this much different than my old postings? (Don't worry, I beleive they've been taken down.) True, I didn't go the extreme that Avery does. But still. We all say dumb things. Sometimes those dumb things are said more publicly than at other times. I also have be a bit more careful about what I say, when I say it, and who I say it to.

It's no secret that Sean Avery is not well-liked by his teammates. And, it seems likely that Avery is probably being punished for his enitre body of work as a pest in the NHL. That's no original thought. But is this worth an indefinite suspension? Watch the clip and decide for yourself.

Reminder- Please Vote!!!

Just a reminder to all my dear readers: Please get out there and vote today!

For a little election day footage, the videos are from the interviews that both candidates gave last night on ESPN's Monday Night Football. Really, both interviews are pretty pointless. Enjoy!

Football Commercial

When I post video footage, I don't normally post commercials. But I just love this commercial for Nike Football. It features LaDanian Tomlinson and Troy Polamalu. I don't what it is about this ad. It's just kinda poetic.

Giving Props to a Division Rival

The San Francisco 49ers are in the same division as my beloved St. Louis Rams. But, I have to give them props for hiring Mike Singletary as their head coach. Just like with the Rams and Jim Haslett, I believe a new era is starting out there in the Bay Area. After all, it's not really a great rivalry anymore if both teams are mired in a culture of losing.

I've liked Singletary since his playing days with the Bears. And I'm surprised he hasn't been up for a coaching gig up to now.

This video is his press conference after the game. Enjoy!

Here's to a renewed rivalry!

You Cannot Be Serious!

Why are we talking about this? Why is Sarah Palin's shopping spree even a campaign issue? Aren't there more substantive things we could and SHOULD be talking about?

The video footage is a segment on Hardball with Chris Matthews (who, like most people, is better as an SNL parody, and who I can barely stand in small doses). They devote, like, 11 minutes to this crap. Look, it comes down to this: If it's the party's money (NOT taxpayer money), then the party can spend it however they see fit.

The Republican party, I think, used to be masters of elevating trivial issues to the level of national priority. And I fault the Obama campaign for not saying, "This is such a trivial issue, that Sen. Obama will not even bother to spend one second of his time on it." Instead, they've allowed this to continue.

Anyway, enjoy the footage (if you stomach for more than 10 seconds).

Rediscovering The Critic

I've recently started watching this show. I remember it from the late 1990s, but I only saw a couple episodes. I remember liking them. Turns out, I was right. Now that I get the jokes, it's funnier. I saw it on the Reelz channel a few weeks back, and decided to give it a shot. I'm glad I did. I see why the series failed when it did. But, thanks to DVD, it'll be with us forever.

Enjoy the clip!

Entire Obama Acceptance Speech

This is the entire speech Barack Obama made at the Democratic National Convention on August 28, 2008. The speech is stirring and interesting. It explains exactly why I'm voting for Sen. Obama.

I hope after watching it, you too will become persuaded to vote for Barack Obama.
