The Loose Ends: (8/31) Edition

Wrapping up another week around the blogosphere. And as usual the weekend can't ever come soon enough. So, this is our usual Friday farewell and best regards for all to enjoy the long Holiday weekend. And let's all raise our cups in honor of the return of meaningful football games and a reason to deposit money into the Sportsbook account. It's not hurting anything either that the Baseball season is locked into full pennant swing mode. And it's going to get interesting this next month. Anyhow, let's not waste anymore time and polish off a few odds and ends from the happs on the week that is all, but gone.

It's always an interesting week over at Epic Carnival. Be sure to check a few posts that Rupes dropped, one about "Hard Knocks" and another quick clip about just how stupid some people really are. I shed a little light on the current cast of the upcoming season of "Dancing with the Stars." Unfortunately, my counter suggestions are a day late and a dollar short.

We also engaged in a pretty interesting debate about who was the most talented member of N.W.A on the epic email group. Yup, these are the mature things we think about on a regular basis. My vote was securely with Ice Cube and/or Eazy-E, but I may have been met with some resistance. It ended a little like this from WCT: "We're just going to have to agree to disagree on that one... By the way, this argument inspired me to spend the last 30 mins reading Suge Knight's Wikipedia page."

And how could we forget? Be sure to check out our candid interview with Matt Mosely of ESPN's Hashmarks. Matt's a cool dude and is a monster about keeping that blog on top of the business.

You may heard about the gay support Joey Harrington is getting in Atlanta. Kudos to Joey for always making new fans. Sorry, no Piano Man joke on tap. Meanwhile, in completely stark contrast, another once famed QB has hit the rocks. Yup, Todd Marinovich was busted with some meth, a needle and a spoon, while trying to skateboard in the OC. He probably could've skated with just a warning had he not tried to run away from the Cops...sigh.

In more troubling news Al Debarge of the legendary group El Debarge was arrested on charges of Domestic Abuse in LA this past week. Ah yes, feel the beat of the rhythm of the night. On the bright side of things, the DA is not going to pursue charges, yet Debarge is being held on outstanding warrants. We'll always have a soft spot for El Debarge, after all his brother used to buy me beer when I was wee bit teenager...long story.

Moving on, today is August 31st. And it also happens to be the day a classic horror film gets a facelift. I am speaking of the one and only Halloween. As a horror film buff, I am greeting the project with eagerness and anticipation. Rob Zombie should do nothing, but justice to this classic film. And let the record show that I rank Michael Myers #2, just behind Jason Voorhees on my serial killer list. Trust me, that is no slight. I will be in attendance on opening night. Enjoy the trailer..



TGI-mutha fucking-F!!! And with that, as always enjoy the weekend and make it a great one. Best of luck with all of your football parlays and teasers...ENJOY!!! We'll back next week.
