Whitt's End: 3.18.11

"..the glorification of style over substance", written by a man with hair plugs.

Ah Rooster. You sir are a douche.

I'm in my 40s, run my own cooking and cleaning bid'ness, and spend hours every day trolling a mediocre blog.

That's as funny as it gets.

Richie,

I told you how I thought all five fights on the main card would go down at UFC 128. 5-0. I don't always go 5-0 to be sure, but you could have at least listened to me when I told you Jones would beat Rua. That was about as one-sided as a fight could get.

How 'bout we put a monetary wager on the main card fights from now on?

As I pat meself on the back, Bones=Winner>RW=105.3thefail

Bones is coming RW, I still have 20 bucks..(RW probably tipped the Lebare guy w his last 20)

I've got a couple of ideas for richie to write about next wk:

# 1 - how pathetic the mavs are (which leads to...)

#2 - i wonder what chuck cooperstein REALLY thinks about the mavs this yr and in yrs past.i leave out followill b/c he's more of just a play-by-play guy with limited knowledge of basketball whereas chuck cooperstein is a basketball savant.i know damn good and well that every pre-season when he sees kidd and terry he knows that the mavs have no chance to win a championship and they are nothing more than a nice regular season team constructed to generate $ from the foolish sheep who attend the sensory overloaded games @ the AAC.yet, he plays the part.not sure why either.he is a highly decorated college football & basketball play-by-play man and a damn good host of sportstalk radio to boot.he could afford to speak his mind (knowing good and well cubes would fire him) and still be quite successful in any sport of his choosing.

take jeff "skin" wade for example.on the ben & skin show thursday, ben was making fun of how cuban would send angry e-mails to station mgmt everytime skin was critical (truthful) of the mavs.ben stated that this was while they worked at a former station so im guessing this was either during their ticket or fan days.now that skin is being paid by cuban, he now sees through blue & green goggles while dressed in mavs dancer gear.

bottomline is i can see why skin and followill keep their true opinions quiet and speak nothing but mav positives as their talent is miniscule compared to the higher authority. however, i dont understand why coop wouldnt just fly off the handle, like he is prone to do on bad callers, and tell it like it is on the mavs whether cuban cans him or not.

your welcome whitt,

pick n roll joel

Brewer's next play will be his first? I take it you missed the Knicks game.

Thanks for reminding me of Tank McNamara. I used to read it every day. Wasn't it two guys who did it, one being the artist? I think he/they had another non-sports strip or two, but this could be a faulty memory. Anyway, thanks for the nostalgia hit.

Brackets suck. Fantasy sports suck. UFC sucks.

Almost sucks as much as a guy who cooks and cleans for a living.

Tonight it's Lake Cliff again. Gonna get a little mayo and sausage stuck in my beard.

Last comment, HOOK EM!

RW, what kind of haircut does Wash get? Unless the unfortunate bozo the clown doo was a result of the crack pipe..methinks he don't need too much trimming.

Dear UFC RW, Bones is a bad, bad, dude..he'll win it..Shogun is a badass too..but Bones Jones does amazing shit every time he fights. #ivegot20bucks

Dear dude in the next cubicle,

I care even less about your brackets than I care about your fantasy teams. Eff off.

Sincerely,

Just Me

Oh yeah, Hanks in Mckinney is greatness! I've seen 1100 Springs at Hank's many times. Not as good as Gruene Hall, but, real good.

But few things in this world rival GH, the Guad, Canyon Lake, the Comal.

RW Wrote:*Greg Williams, my partner on 105.3 The Fan, sleeps with five pillows, face down, on top of the hotel covers. Weird doesn't even come close.

Weird, no...gross, f%ckyeah! First thing you do when you go to ANY hotel is strip that nasty @ss comforter and put your own blanket/sheet on said bed. Do the same with the pilla's. Then take a giant d in that Am Stand, and call the front desk. I flooded a hotel room in Walsenburg Colo once, and they were visibly p.o.ed at the utter distruction that I created. Wasn't my fault it got stuck on the "landing".

Bottom line.....people are gross and do all manner of nasty crap in hotel rooms. I once rented a hotel room in Galveston, and the room came with a fresh "Texas City Monster". When I complained, the guy called the cops. The cops just laughed and I wound up leaving and throwing down a tent on the west end of the island.

Pretty weak week? Sure. Cut him some slack though. If I were in his shoes, and out in Arizona for a week, something would slip a little bit. Probably would for you, too.

Hey RW, since you won't see the Fab Five special, there's one on UNLV that's better. They only won a national championship by the biggest margin ever and Tark won 80% of his games there. It is a sports documentar though, I guess I'd have better luck suggesting you watch a Lady Gaga documentary or even Nickelback.

I don't care what anyone says - if the call on Wednesday's spring training game is any indication, Rad Again is a goner before the All-Star break. Harry Carey has more life in him than Rad.

Weak End to end a weak week.

I would bet Corey Brewer wished he signed elsewhere. Unless he knew minutes would be hard to come by and thought the Mavs had a good shot at making a run at the title.....
