ABC did the same thing with this woman, Sam-something during the Stanley Cup. She was extremely annoying. I would give my eyeteeth for that job. (although I would probably get fired for sexually harassing the players and probably would not look much like eye candy without my eyeteeth*)



*I have no idea what eyeteeth are. Incisors? Molars?

That was my point. He was so much better than she.

If you want a chick on the sidelines, Suzy Kolber is your girl. I love her on the EA Sports NFL Matchup with Merrill and Jaws.

Is it enjoyable for the male football watching public to watch her interview people when she doesn't even know who is on which team? In her post game interview with Ramsey (QB, Redskins), she said something to him about him talking to his ex-teammate, Laverneous Coles after the game. Hey, chick, Coles is on the Redskins! The story was the he (Coles) was playing against his ex-team. WTF. Ramsey felt bad for her and helped her out of the crappy question.
It was a good game with the type of nailbiting ending that I like so long as my Bills are not involved. Shepard Smith (hottie) of FoxNews commented before the game that he hoped nobody could win because it was the Jets or Spurrier -- I laughed. This was a game where I pulled for a team to lose -- the Jets, of course. Bruce Smith is now 2.5 sacks away from Reggie White's all-time record -- I wonder if he will retire after that. If he does reture, I hope he comes back to the Bills for one game so he can retire and go into the HoF in the uniform that made him what he is.

WRT the chickie on the sidelines, my husband (who qould qualify as part of the male football watching public) asked me "is that cleavage or a shadow from the mic" each time she appeared. Thus I do not think her interview skills were an issue for him. This is what I hate most about affirmative-action type stuff -- you couldn't find someone in your "group" who is actually qualified for the position?" Do the male "powers that be" perhaps hire these idiot female sports broadcasters so that they can say "see, we hired a woman and she sucks -- but not in the good way." And why do they believe that they must have at least one stereotypical butch lesbian sportscaster? NTTAWW being a butch lesbian but they always put them in a light that plays into a stereotype of "she's just a man with boobs" rather than "she is a female sportscaster who knows her shit."

Serious points to you for watching (or pretending to watch, or just not interrupting during) the post-game. That makes you marriage material.
She was on the Best Damn Sports Show Period. She looks like shit. We watched at a bar last night and everyone commented on how she's usually hot. Her face looked really puffy and weathered. Maybe she was sick. She is 38 years old, but she has aged 10 years in the past 6 months.

Yes, Suzy Kolber is also good. In fact, generally speaking (and I AM including Linda Cohn in this analysis), all of the ESPN chicks are good -- which is why it puzzles me that big brother ABC can't get it right.

I still have my '45 of Goin for A Ride. I've got to fix my phonograph. I don't think it would sound the same if it weren't all crackly, anyway.

We always really emphasized "and I'm gonna be a Cappin, and I'm gonna have a Creewww" when we sang it. Had the 45 also, though I no longer recall what was on the other side. If you ever get it recorded and set up as a computer file, please forward it to me!

I got 19/20 because I missed lug nuts. I've actually changed a tire, so I am embarrassed by that error. Four was so obviously the trick answer. The safety and poker questions were guesses, but I did use POE. Aren't we all so glad we're good test-takers? Look where it's gotten us!

Anybody see the special on Discovery about the differing effects on the male and female brains from testosterone and estrogen exposure in the uterus? Very interesting stuff. It explained why boys were more "hard-wired" to take stuff apart, etc.

It wasn't that long ago that Lisa Guererro was exceptionally hot. Some combination of working with Tom Arnold and compounding the folly of dating Scott Erickson by actually getting engaged to Scott Erickson has really done a number on her. Ick.

That being said, with a little experience, she may actually turn out to be OK at the sideline job, since it appears the participants will actually talk to her.

Anyway, can a trusted regular post a review of b-day for those of us without enough fiber in our diet? Feel free to fluff it up in hopes of attracting additional participants for version 3.0.

Missed the marquis diamond, points for a safety. the edge of a screw, where the antifreeze goes (had it then changed my mind), and BMW. Guessed right on a couple including the lug nuts and the boy scout thing. Does this make me a klinefelter or an ignoramus?

Those things which you like but will never admit to liking in public. For example, that song that you scream at the top of your lungs in your car by yourself, but quickly turn off and mock when you have company...me first:

(1) Music/song: (a) Nutcracker music. Maybe it's b/c I grew up with it. I don't know. But I enjoy it. At Christmastime.

(2) Movie: Moulin Rouge. My guy friends would never let me hear the end of this one.

(3) TV show: Boy Meets World. C'mon, this is good stuff.

Feel free to add catergories...

For starters. I do not embarass easily, if at all. But I can list something I might regret or might enduce a little self loathing.

Music- I bought the Beyonce album cuz i liked that hit song that i heard in a surf store on an incredible sound system. I listened to it once and it blew. I also enjoyed the whoops I did it again song for some reason.

Movie-If I like it, its a good movie and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. I have fabulous taste. And Moulin Rouge was wholly unwatchable. Made me hate Nicole Kidman. Not that I got through the whole thing or anything.

TV Show- Big Brother. Bc its on three times a week, and I was really addicted last season, and since I dont own a recording device I had attempted to schedule social events around it, until someone pointed out what a loser thing that was to do. Of coruse, I got them into the show and they did the same thing, but whatever.

and if I watched scrubs, which i dont, i would put that on, bc not only is it time slot, i have no life tv, that whore from New Jersey, Tara Reid just joined on.


EDIT- the most hated band, of all time; the run to the radio dial and swtich it; has to be No Doubt. I hate them more than I hate billing itself.
I will say the purple attachable bippie to my Magic Wand is a little blush inducing.

Yeah, well so was the little scrolly thing that tells you what is on tv. I don't think something being good when you are stoned is much of a recommendation for it.

Bush is worse than No Doubt. Granted, No Doubt sucks, and Gwen is incredibly annoying and not that hot. But, I would bet that No Doubt was a fun bar/beach party ska band when they were clubbing around Orange County. I can't imagine anything about Bush ever being fun, at any time in their evolution.

I love when the Manor is all clean and orderly, but I hate the process of getting it to that point and always find things I'd rather do than clean or organize. A cleaning lady helps keep the main rooms looking presentable but I have two spare bedrooms that are virtually walk in storage closets and I have to toss everything out of my closets to find things.

You are so my SP. I had trouble with 1 female question and 1 male question -- I don't play poker but figured getting 4 of a kind would be the hardest to do. Also, I almost wrote "volumizer" but then remembered it was a "diffuser." Everything else was disappointingly easy.

On the BMW question, did they give credit for both "Werks" and "Works"? I went for the German spelling to be safe.

I remembered "TKO" because when I was a kid I thought the T was for "total."

Question: I am 42-years-old, have two children and have been married for 11 years. It is the first marriage for me, and my husband’s second marriage. He is 45. He seems to be obsessed by sex. At first it was flattering that he wanted me all the time, but now I am getting worried that we may have a real problem. He wants sex often, sometimes once a day, and when I try to put him off, he gets very angry. He has never hit me and is a good provider and father to the children. I don’t know what to do and worry it will get worse and then I might have to divorce him.
