Plus, Top Chef is off-season (and after Hosea, who really wants to talk about Top Chef anyway?). And I'm pretty sure I'm the only regular here who watches Ultimate Fighter.

What to do, what to do?

Real World / Road Rules Challenge. Lots of eye candy, and drama so bad it's good.

...I've never really been a big fan of Sharon Stone (other than the naked part of Total Recall*), but she looks fucking fantastic for a 51 year old woman. Good lord.

*And no, I'm not confusing her with the three-boobed woman.

She is skinny and has implants, yes. But I actually think her face looks older than 51.

Unfortunately I'm afraid you're wrong about AI and we'll lose Allison this week. She's a total nutjob, but I love her. I would love to see her and Adam in the finals, but I fear it will be an Adam/Danny finale. I hate Danny and I don't care that he has a dead wife. There, I said it. Having a dead wife doesn't make him any less smarmy and unctuous.

I can't think of many 51 year olds who haven't turned completely frumpy. And of course she's had work done and her tits aren't real. That really has nothing to do with my point. The fact is, she looks very good for 51.

As for your last sentence, there ain't much to say. She looks like she's in her early to mid 40s to me.

Alison's ITune download numbers are much higher than Giraud's. Ergo, they will arrange that she stays.

As of yet, VFTW does not have a leaked set list for tonight's Rat Pack fiasco.

Compared to the average population of 51 year olds, sure. But Michele Pfeifer is her age and Kim Basinger is older and both look better in my opinion.

But I'm not saying she doesn't look good overall.

You sure? Looks like she's got some room in there for another.

This post means nothing without photos. And whether or not there are hotter old ladies out there isn't really the point. I just think she looks great for her age.

I saw a Biography show on Sharon Stone and it told the story of how she was nearly decapitated in a horseback riding accident when she was a teenager (I think the horse spooked and ran her under a wire), but the internet bios seem completely devoid of this tidbit. I wonder whether I should stop believing everything I read on the internet. Either that or stop trusting all information from Bill Kurtis and A&E.

Matt Taibbi has taken a small break from his Hunter S. Thompson political pose and decided to throw a grenade into the realm of sports. Behold, the assasination of Brian Cashman.

And would you blame us, Brian Cashman? Because objectively speaking, the job of New York Yankees general manager should be the single most failure-proof position not only in sports but in all of human society. Giving a normal, red-blooded, pattern-baldness-suffering American male access to the Steinbrenner fortune and asking him to buy 25 baseball players a year in an unregulated market is no different, in any meaningful way, from handing Sarah Jessica Parker a blank check and asking her to fill a three-bedroom apartment with shoes and dresses. And we’re not even asking her to get good deals. All we ask is that the outfits match.

It’s obscene that a job like this even exists. But for someone to have this job and fuck it up is just appalling, the kind of gross disrespect for our own good fortune that makes it hard for us Americans to look the Third World in the eye. What Brian Cashman has accomplished as GM of the Yankees over the past few years, in turning a perennial World Series champ into a third-place also-ran, is like walking into a backstage party for Led Zeppelin with a two-pound bag of coke and a 28-inch penis and failing for a whole night to get laid.

Cashman managed to discover the one avenue through which limitless money and power under the current Major League Baseball rules can be a competitive disadvantage. He found that if you pack your roster from top to bottom with pathologically needy, egomaniacal, paranoid megamillionaires aged 30 and up, you can more or less permanently block the development of the choice, hungry, 25- to 30-year-old talent group that serves as the core of virtually all winning baseball teams.

What’s even more interesting is that after implementing this formula so successfully that the Yankees fell behind a Cape Cod League team called the Tampa Bay Rays last year, Cashman decided to double down on his strategy — opting to plug his team’s now-gaping holes by signing another $441 million in new megamillionaire free agents, with the bulk of that money going to the superstar trio of C.C. Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, and Mark Teixeira. With his shameless, blatant attempt to buy a World Series with a half-billion-dollar shopping spree at a time when the rest of the country is scrounging under the couch cushions for ramen money, Cashman has laid the foundation for 2009 to be maybe the most entertaining year for non–Yankees fans in the history of baseball. We are all trailing six car lengths behind, waiting for the pinstriped truck to jackknife and explode in a giant conflagration of scandals and finger-pointing.

Mets (and other fans), feast.
