December 2006

OK, either I was deliriously sleepy tonite or “Sports Action Team” is the funniest show on TV. Y’all decide. If you’ve never seen the show its a group of comics and improv actors who interview pro athletes and other stars but it’s in the context of their being reporters on a fake sports show. The ish is hilarious. Tonite they got Amani Toomer and I was literally laughing out loud in my bed at 2am. Really, I felt bad, cuz I know I was loud enough to wake up my neighbors. If you haven’t seen it and you’re a sports fan, be sure you plan to stay up and watch next week or go to their website and watch clips and outtakes. OMG it’s my favorite.

And while we’re talking about sports and players for the sorry NY Giants (yeah I said it, Tina), I just have to give a shout out my Eagles — because so many of them read this blog… I may have to take back what I said about Jeff Garcia. I said in a previous post that he wouldn’t be able to take us to the playoffs, but week by week, he is proving me wrong, and I am not mad at him. Brian Dawkins should be making more money. I don’t know what his contract is, but I know he should be making more. He is Philly football, I don’t care what you say. Yeah, you. Wanna fight? I can’t wait til the Dallas game. What better way to celebrate the birth of our Lord, than to watch the Eagles pound the Cowboys? If we beat them (again) and we beat the Falcons (which we will) we can win the NFC East. Who woulda thought that was even remotely possible a month ago? Nobody. Not even you. Yeah we can take this outside…

Oh man, it really doesn’t get much better than this. This weekend, one of my girlfriends turned me on to this website called www.dontdatehimgirl.com. Yes, that’s right. I had never heard of it before, but apparently it’s pretty well known. The whole purpose of the site is for women who have been scorned (can you even use the word ‘scorned’ like that? I’m not even sure if it sounds right if you don’t say “a woman scorned”. A “scorned woman” doesn’t sound right. He scorned her. She was scorned by him? Doesn’t sound right to me… anyway) to put their exes on blast. When you get onto the site you can search by the guy’s name or by the city in which you live and you will see sometimes dozens of stories about how a guy did a girl wrong, what a dog he is, everything, down to the STDs he might have. It’s crazy. And then you can make comments, add things or cosign on what is already there. You can even put pictures of the guy up. This site is out of control!
 
 The reason my girl knew about it was because she put a guy on there and she wanted me to read what she’d written. But after I was done with that, I decided I’d search the site for some of the guys I’ve dated. Shoot, if they weren’t on there already, most of them deserve to be. I was searching thru the DC listings, and I came across someone that a girl I know is currently dating and OH MY DAMN… the entry was… shall I say… less than flattering and pretty dead-on. So I forwarded it to another girlfriend of mine who passed it on to the current dater of said man (I’m trying to use bad grammar today, thanks), and I think I stirred up some drama that didn’t need to be. I didn’t mean to get anyone upset. I just couldn’t believe that people actually take the time to put that stuff out there. Cause while it’s billed as a ‘sisterly’ kind of service, it’s quite evident that the goal is to make these guys look as bad as possible. Now I’m sure some of them deserve it, but you can tell some of the entries are blown totally out of proportion. “Don’t date Kevin Washington. He is like soooo mean and stuff and if you sleep with him on the first date, he will totally not call you the day after. He’s like the devil.”
 
 Really? I bet he is. BTW what’s your name? I’ve got a site I’d like to put you on. It’s called sitdownho.com. Anyway, I said all that to say ladies, you might want to check out the site to see if your man’s up on there or if you just want to see how raw some women can be it’s good for hours and hours of fun… and fellas… well, y’all should check and see if your name is on there. And watch who you do wrong from now on! Tee hee!
