Celebritiy Eye Candy, Bulls and East Coast Drinking

SportsDude:

I’ll just give you guys the rundown of what is going to happen in this blog. First, Monday tv minus heroes because it gets its own blog with a little bit of celebrity gossip. I know I am not proud of myself. Little bit of Bulls/ Pistons game and brain teaser.

First off after Hereos I was flipping between Bulls/Pistons, Rockies/Cardinals, and celebrity eye candy. I don’t know how the tv landed on that station, but I’m a sucker for celebrity gossip and this junk. I have never bought an US Weekly or anything cheesy like that but, I do look at them in the line at the grocery store and since I date a walking gossip column I just ask her what is going on with celebrity X. I was watching this eye candy show and I was enjoying it and loathing myself at the same time. I really enjoyed the wedgie song (this has got to be on youtube) and celebrities falling down. Why do I care? I couldn’t even pick out half these celebrities if they didn’t say their name and what show they are on. This is totally mindless tv like Deal or No Deal but on a even lower lever because there is no math involved. I have no idea where this thought is going but I am confused.

I am interested in this alleged video of Lindsay Lohan snorting cocaine. I think the only movie I seen with her is “Mean Girls”. She used to be hot when she was a red head. F.Y.I. I have a thing for red headed girls. Yeah, who knows? I also have never done any drugs. This settles it, I’m interested because a hot red head is doing something I have never seen before. Anyways, I bet Lindsay Lohan is pissed at her friends, I mean they took a video of her doing illegal drugs. Which she shouldn’t have been doing in the first place and to make it worse I think she just got out of rehab. What a bunch of asshole friends, I bet Lindsay would have kicked their ass if she wasn’t so high. On the flip side I bet that they weren’t going to out run her because, you can’t out run a crack head.

The Chicago Bulls I think have been grandfathered in as my favorite basketball team for a couple reasons. My state doesn’t have a basketball team and Chicago would be the closest one, plus they had Michael Jordan and seriously how could not like him. When I first flipped to the game the Bulls were down by 16 and Andres Nocioni missed like 5 shots in a row. I still some talent with the Bulls though, Tyrus Thomas seems to be improving finally. I think he will be good in a couple of years.

It just seems like the Pistons knew what the Bulls were going to try to do. It’s like when you are playing with some friends and you never guard the last guy picked because even if you left him open all day he’d only make three shots. The Pistons just said go ahead and try that because it’s not going to work. It’s still only the first game and I think this will be a long series. The Bulls are going to get their act together and make it a series. Random question: Rasheed Wallace bald spot or bad hair cut?

What is going on with my Cardinals? Everything is going wrong with them this season. Every time I flip the game on in the 2nd or 3rd inning, they are already behind by 2 or 3 runs. Are they just spotting teams runs because they won the world series? I guess that I will have to catch the start of a game.

The meat of their order is not hitting, including Pujols. We have the most left field and right field errors of any team in the league I am sure of it. They just put Preston Wilson on the DL so maybe that will help our errors. The bullpen has actually been ok which is better than I can say for the rest of the team. To any Cardinals players that might be reading this “The banquet circuit is over. You are not Roger Clemens so the season doesn’t start at Memorial Day. Oh, yeah the Royals almost have as many wins as you!”

During the 4th inning I seen Yadi Molina, (my favorite Molina) take a peek at Todd Helton to see if he was peeking at Yadi. It seemed like something out of Spy vs. Spy. This seemed odd to me, I have never seen anything like this. Great Tyler Johnson just walked in the leading run for the Rockies. I haven’t been so down on the Cardinals since ’99. The Rockies right fielder seriously made the ugliest sliding catch I have ever seen in the bottom of the ninth.

Finishing up with a brain teaser; it’s summer time now, which works great for people drinking during the day. Maybe at the lake, a ball game, while mowing the lawn even at the winery on an afternoon. This leads to many people getting way too drunk way too early. I can’t call them lightweights because they drank for 6-8 hours, which is respectable. It’s just they are going to bed at like 9 or 10 on a weekend night. Bottom line is I need a term for people who go out early and wind up getting drunk early. I created one and its just not catching on like I want it to. I called it east coast drinking which works good for everyone that doesn’t live on the east coast. Somebody send me a term and then submit it to urbandictionary.com.

ShopperGal:
From reading SportsDude's blog, I'm guessing I missed a pretty boring night last night. I can't comment much on the television shows he watched because I had a killer migraine and laid beside him on the couch fast asleep from 7:30 on (minus the time I woke up to watch Heroes - even a killer migraine can't keep me away from Hiro!)

SportsDude was right; I am a walking gossip columnist. I read every good celebrity blog I know about: tmz.com, perezhilton.com, people.com, eonline.com, usmagazine.com plus a favorite of mine lagunahookup.blogspot.com (all about Laguna Beach and The Hills - I am obsessed with my girl Lauren Conrad. I can't wait for her new clothing line to drop so I can scoop it all up. Hopefully it won't be too expensive but I'm getting something regardless and SportsDude can't stop me!). Anyway, as you can tell I'm kind of a celebrity gossipaholic. From time to time (okay almost daily) I share my latest tidbits with SportsDude. Sometimes he looks at me with pure confusion because he has no idea what I'm talking about but regardless he nods and pretends he cares and sometimes even asks questions. When I told him about Lindsay Lohan's cocaine scandal, he was more intrigued than usual. He's right - he does love redheads. And yes I am what some would classify a redhead but not a full-blown redhead. My hair is more of an auburn and he won't let me die it dark brown like Cameron Diaz's like I so desperately want to. I missed this Celebrity EyeCandy show he speaks of but I am intrigued enough that I can't wait to catch it next week. I will probably even look it up as soon as I'm done with this blog.

I'm with SportDude on the Chicago Bulls. They are my team. I've never seen them play in person but if I watch anyone on t.v. it's them. It goes back to the Michael Jordan years. I loved that man. I have pictures of him hanging on my wall in my childhood home. He was the man. Still is. I was sad to hear him and his wife are divorcing but I love him just the same. The series isn't looking good for the Bulls right now but hopefully they will pull out a victory.

The Cardinals. I don't know what to say about them. I caught an early season game in April and they got stomped. I was sitting out along right field and I felt for Preston Wilson. After his 3rd dropped fly ball, I thought the crowd was going to throw beer on him. This was his team fans too. I think the Cardinals need some leadership and direction right now. Even my man Pujols has been sucking it up and that's disappointing. Maybe after this whole Josh Hancock thing blows over, we will see our championship team again.

Finally, east coast drinking. It's something I'm pretty good at. Mostly because I'm like Cinderella two hours early - when the clock strikes 10, I turn into an old maid! For a couple weeks now, SportsDude and I have tried to come up with a good term for drinking early and crashing early and all we've came up with is East Coast Drinking. We've ran it by a few people and we are met with blank stares so I think it's a no go. Help us come up with a good one. We've been dying to enter a term into the Urban Dictionary!

Oh and finally, I need a good sign off. All the legends have one. Not that I'm a legend. But I'm going to try anyway. Until tomorrow...
