Random Crap

  • OK, so I seemingly pimp out every single article that the Sports Guy writes. But today's article actually made me spit out food from laughing at this:
    Does anyone have a stranger defense than the Steelers? Nobody can run on them, and yet Def Leppard's drummer could throw for 400 yards on them.
    Another, great Sports Guy article...he previews this week's NFL action, talks about reality TV and describes what it's like to watch football at Jimmy Kimmel's house.

  • Ever wanted to know if you were color blind? Take this test to find out.

  • Much like the Sports Guy, I'm also a fan of reality TV. Don't know why, really. It's just so damn ridiculously cheezy, I guess. Anyway, it seems as if a million new shows have launched recently. Haven't seen most of them (Bachelorette, Joe Millionaire, Star Search, Celebrity Mole). But, I did catch part of The Surreal Life. If you haven't seen it yet, you haven't missed much. All it is is seven C-List celebrities living together in a house (Real World style) for 10 day. From these 10 days, they are somehow going to put together eight episodes. With the finale showing Corey Feldman getting married by the Rev. MC Hammer. I'll only watch that episode *IF* Corey Haim is the best man.

    But this week did see the debut of the new Real World / Road Rules Challenge. This years them is Battle of the Sexes -- guys vs girls. Based on the first episode, it look like the season is going too be a good one -- that is if you like over-the-top drama and confrontations. Bunim-Murray productions seemed to have culled the ranks of their shows' alumni for the most confrontational malcontents they could find. The premier features an altercation between the first two Real Worlders to get kicked off the show: LA's David ("you know it's yo' styrofoam, so pick it up!") and SF's Puck (of snot rocket and peanut butter fame). Anyway, if you've seen the episode and want more info on what happened but didn't make it on the show read Colin (Hawaii cast) or Lori's (second NY cast) pages.

  • After taking an extended break to celebrate Christmas, Boxing Day, Kwanza and New Year's the staff of ToddBreer.com have returned. This year's resolution: to provide more and better updates.

  • ESPN.com's Page 2 has ranked the major sports cities in America to see which city had the best year. I think their methodology might be flawed. There is no way that San Francisco can be number one. Boston won the Super Bowl and had NBA and NHL teams in the postseason. You've got to put more emphasis on postseason play AND championships won. And maybe even weight the championships different for each other with the Super Bowl and World Series worth more than the NBA title and the Stanley Cup. Probably the biggest snub on the list is Anaheim in 9th place? Are you telling me that a city that won the World Series can be behind Oakland and Indianapolis. Use some common sense...

  • CBS SportsLine provides an interesting look at the relationship between Missouri Basketball head coach Quin Snyder and point guard Ricky Clemons. Worth a read if you are a Tigers fan.

  • About a week ago, The Sports Guy brought back his gimmick of handing out end of season awards that tied in with quotes from a classic movie. This time around it's the NFL and the movie Swingers (Part 1) (Part 2). A great read if you are a fan of both the Sports Guy and the movie Swingers. If you've never seen the movie, rent it!
