But before I get to that, how bad were the Oscars?
I mean really, no flashy epic happenings, a lack-luster seemingly fake Beyonce performance. The highlight of the night was watching them cut 78 times to Angelina Jolie holding back an ear to ear smile while Jennifer Anniston made an ass out of herself just because of the fact she was standing next to Jack Black at the time. Honestly, we all know, she wrecked the marriage, but don’t give her the satisfaction by cutting to her 1/3 of the time Jennifer Anniston was on stage. That’s like everytime you turn on Fox News you see some white old man and Ann Coulter talking about how awful Democrats are, and just being racist...oh wait...
Fox News?
Oh have you seen this NY Post Cartoon? To defend this in any fashion and to think it is not racist would be irresponsible...and downright frigthening...
Anyways I thought the Grammy’s trumped the Oscar’s in every way imaginable. There were no surprises!
Did you really think Ledger wasn’t going to win? I mean, I wanted him to win, but to think anyone else would win? No chance
I texted my brother before it started to put 10 bucks on Sean Penn...at 2-1 Vegas odds, not that significant, but again predictable.
Winslet is the most unappreciated star of the past decade. She nailed Titanic and didn’t get any love after that. The woman is unbelievable and to think she wouldn’t win in a year when she had two critically acclaimed movies for which she could’Ve been nominated...Merryl Streep didn’t even pen an outline for her acceptance speech.
Slumdog delivered on all it’s hype...deservedly so...but i mean c’mon giVe us a surprise or two?
Should it have won best picture? absolutely
but why not haVe Richard Jenkins win best actor...talk about underappreciated, each time I saw him in an interview before the Oscars everyone asked him in not so many words...”How does it feel to be a legitmate unknown (even though you’ve been in a million quality movies for 20 years) with all these stars?”
He’s been around forEVER...check his resume...the guy is a stud
Imdb.com
He’s like the sports equivalent of Big Shot Brob...seriously this guy wins wherever he goes and just goes about his business...
If you wanted it to be a year of the underdog...stick with it!
Ben Stiller as Juaquin Pheonix as the actor-turned rapper on Letterman...genius
So I guess I ranted way longer than I wanted...
As for the WBC...always go with pitching
And because I know nothing about any other teams other than the US...the Dominican...and Venezuela...I’ll let Jason Stark do my point-making for me
It seems in his rankings at the bottom he thinks Japan has the best all-around rotation...
But watch out if the US gets a lead early...because their bullpen reaks havoc if put in the game...
Jason Stark
Nathan
Ryan
Fuentes
Putz
I’m going to predict a Venezuelan...US championship with Nathan closing the final out and a US Victory.
