Congrats to Michigan on winning the Sugar Bowl over Virginia Tech (sorry Hokie fans). A few months ago I was in Ann Arbor, Michigan taking a tour of one of my favorite college towns. I happen to bring a video camera with me.

Not sure what you did on your New Year’s but how witnessing what these lucky people did in Maui, a performance of Come Together by Steven Tyler, Alice Cooper and ‘Weird’ Al Yankovic. Be on the lookout of a former Saturday Night Live member at the end.

I just watched the new Three Stooges Trailer. When I heard the movie been talked about, I didn’t think it was gonna look like this. Hopefully I’m not calling the movie makers Numbskulls if and when I do see the movie. From what I can tell, no Shemp! What do you think?

Suh Suspended

Being a Detroit Lion fan I have to admit I’m not happy with Ndamukong Suh and his actions against Green Bay last week. After watching that game it’s obvious the team needs some on field discipline. Especially if they want to make the playoffs. I did get a kick out of this video though.

All Star Thoughts

Quite the events in baseball this week. I was wondering how much of a slide my beloved Tigers would have once baseball picked back up. The only lost the first two games out of the break. Last year it was six. For whatever reason the past few years the Tigers have been poorly after the All-Star Game. It has cost them in years past, hopefully it won’t this year.

Here are some random thoughts from the game and the season so far…

Jeter should have been there, he was voted in and fans wanted to see him…. National Leauge picthing is pretty solid, I wonder how different the game would have been had a few guys been able for pitch for the AL, I did think the Ron Washington the AL manager mismanaged a few times… not the best of All-Star games got a little sloppy at times… this is still my favorite All-Star game of any sport… Who would have thought the Pirates would be in first in July, it’s nice to see them contend…. same for Arizona as well, nice to see them play good baseball, hats off to manager Kirk Gibson…. every division race is close…. Milwaukee made a good trade it’s all or bust this year for them to get back into the playoffs. Should be a great rest of the season.
