Thank you to those that occasionally stumble across this site. In return, I promise to occasionally stumble across the "new post" button.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Anyone heard any good Batman casting rumors?

Thank bejesus none of this is true. Eddie Murphy as Riddler? Barf.

I'll let WWTDD reiterate some facts:

Just … what? Okay, the reality is, and these are all facts, Nolan has not agreed to make a third Batman. He probably will but there’s no deal yet. There is no script, here is no story, there are no villains picked out. If he does he will make an unrelated movie, probably "the Prisoner", between now and then, as he did with "the Prestige" between "Batman Begins" and "Dark Knight". Most importantly, he has said in no uncertain terms, as has Bale, they hate Robin, and he will NEVER be a part of these movies.

Pretty sure once WB sees the above image, I'll be contacted immediately to be Bale's understudy. (and by understudy, I mean cod piece breaker inner)

(what? I'm sure that's "some one's" job.)

The Cheese rips ESPN's web editors

It may be ticky-tacky of me to point this out, but even I wouldn't do this and I'm just a stupid part-time pretend to know what I'm talking about blowhard:

ESPN needs to rip a thesaurus out.

Drop the links

Again, these helpful links are not for everyone. Just what I find interesting. Since if I've learned anything about the Christmas season, it's that it's all about me. Thanks for your understanding and support.

• NHL 09 ALTERNATE JERSEY CODE RELEASED Of course I lose my first game of the season wearing them.

• While were on the subject of NHL 09, this dude is hard core about updating rosters and creating classic teams. He has an informative page here and a page to download his updates here. It's been really fun to play with Neely, Espisito, Borque, Orr, Moog, and some other guys I wasn't too familiar with. Good stuff.
  

• Got to LOVE the Hot Stove League. Take a look at some of these moves!

- Mets get K-Rod- who I was hoping they wouldn't waste money on, but now I couldn't be more ecstatic. (until he blows his first save, in which I will automatically have Armando Benitez flashbacks)

- Yankees sign CC- couldn't be happier to get him out of the NL. But his weight has got to become an issue at some point right? He'll break down eventually. They all do. Ask Sid Fernandez.

- Mets in a 3-way for Putz- you're right. I deliberately wrote it that way to sound dirty. Putz and K-Rod...has to be an upgrade over the garden rake and the rubber hose that were in the bullpen last year.

- Phillies sign additional riot gear and trade for a swat team from Houston- Hehehehe...

• Bill Simmons makes an in studio appearance on Carolla:

Not sure who he's pictured with, but it's good to see the Sports Guy sporting a beard. Also, haven't listened to the appearance yet, but I'm sure it's golden. They did a Basic Cable Classic review of Rocky IV!

• Speaking of Carolla, if you haven't watched the video of Rowdy Roddy Piper choking out some guy at Jimmy Kimmel's during football Sunday as John Popper looks on, then you are missing a surreal moment.

• Not sure if I'm the only one that missed the latest gem from Andy Samberg and the guys from Lonely Island. (probably not a great one to watch with kids in the room or at work) Check this out:
