SCRIPT (to the best of my knowledge/understanding):
“Trying to make you gun guys aware about what the capabilities are of the knife. You move too slow and you count too much on that one shot taking him down and…ummmm…you gotta move.”
“This is 21 feet. Set-up and ready to go!”
“Hiding behind a tree somewhere and I see somebody coming down the trail and I go – haaa! – that’s my enemy.”
“Alright, this is a relatively small knife. It’s the cold steel spartan….Just hanging out.”
Jay Z’s tribute to Betty White was a very kind gesture.
I usually skip this song on The Blueprint 3 but – IMO – it was a legit performance.
Nothing beats this Jay Z medley performance with Bridget Kelly from earlier in the Saturday Night Live episode though.
The Jay Z medley on Saturday Night Live included bits from the following songs:
“On To The Next One,” “Public Service Announcement,” “99 Problems,” “03 Bonnie & Clyde” ending with “Empire State of Mind” with Bridget Kelly [edit: not Alicia Keys].
Great stuff…enjoy the video.
Update: Here’s an HD version of Jay’s 2nd performance on Saturday Night Live – Forever Young with Mr. Hudson – a tribute to Betty White.
I’m really hoping this CNN poll glitched out and 60+% of Americans don’t still think offshore drilling is a good idea.
This BccList.com posting from September 2008 is getting about 500-1000 hits per day since the oil rig collapse:
I wonder if this clip will impact the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell debate.
Side note: Had never heard this song but it is sort of catchy.
Side note 2: These guys were drunk, right?!?
Huffington Post and MSNBC TV, thank you.
Bruce Feldman at ESPN: “If ND could land Manti Te’o in a snowstorm, Irish recruiting can survive this.”
I’m not sure who Freekbass is but this is a monstrosity…
I was indifferent towards LeBron James until this clip. Now I hope he never wins a ring. Though, the odds of that happening aren’t good…at all.
The Big Lead, thank you.
Mascots make me smile for some reason.
Q: WTF is this?
A: A recipe for disaster in front of 10,000+ kids.
The Big Lead, thank you.
P.S. Looks like “Bango” owes “Squatch” some royalties…

Aside from the mug shot, here are some highlights from the NBC New York writeup…
When two officers arrived, they found the two small boys walking in the woods on the south side of Flatbrook Road near a stream. The boys were wearing no clothing other than their diapers and they were freezing cold, police said.
Root, who is wearing the t-shirt that reads “I Love Weed” in her mug shot, was heavily under the influence of prescription pain medication, police said.
Barstool Sports – New York, thank you.
“Huge. Quickly. Alright, Bye.”
I actually like the original Nike ad…Earl Wood voiceover.
But, whoever made this ad parody is fcking awesome…
UPDATE:
Here is a roundup of more Tiger and Earl Nike ad parodies:
Along with a Neil Diamond performance, the Red Sox pulled out all the stops last night with Joshua Sacco – a 5 year old – nailing Herb Brooks’ “Miracle” speech.
This kid almost makes me somehow like the Boston Red Sox…for a night.
Angela, thank you.
If it’s good for the country, it’s good for him.
Specifically, Obama said during the 2008 campaign if offshore drilling will help lower energy costs, he would support it. So, go ahead and send this blog posting to all your liberal/conservative friends that think Obama has shifted positions with today’s support of offshore drilling.
From the 2008 campaign trail…

More importantly, Obama has now forced republicans to support an upcoming climate bill that will lower carbon emissions across the board. As mentioned here, there aren’t too many GOP Senators that want to be labeled as the republican that didn’t support offshore drilling.
This BccList.com posting from September 2008 explains my offshore drilling beliefs.
