Lisa Lampanelli is a classic insult comic. Kind of one-dimensional, but she’s one of hundreds ripping of Don Rickles’ schtick. I think she’s funny, but not in a memorable sort of way. I’m not her biggest fan, but I certainly don’t think she’s terrible. She’s pretty middle of the road for me.

LL is best as a guest on a round-table discussion show (Real Time, Politically Incorrect, etc) because she's got a fast mind and can crack wise really well. But I agree with you--I'm not particularly interested in watching an hour special from LL.

I was in Milwaukee for a wedding this past weekend, and the day of the wedding, I woke up really early and went to Madison with a couple friends to see Farley's grave. (Side note--Madison always gets #1 on every list of the greatest college towns, and you can see exactly why immediately when you enter the town--it's the real deal.)

Here's a Farley commercial I probably only saw twice 20 years ago and never again until I just found it on YouTube: LINK

When a guy has a reputation for being a really nice guy or an absolute dick, that's probably never wrong (ie, everybody says Tom Hanks is nice, so there's probably no way that he's an a-hole, and everybody says that Chevy Chase is a dick, so there's probably no way that he's a sweetheart). I've never heard a single negative thing about Farley as a person, which makes it all the more sad that there never was a balls-to-the-wall intervention to help him with his problems.

Because if there is a team in LA, then the owners won't have LA to use in order to hold municipalities hostage when they want new stadiums.

Also, many of the existing owners would rather not have a new owner get to cash in on all that L.A. money; they'd probably feel a lot better if one of them got to move their team to L.A. instead.

Message Posted by JJ27 I read. 225 for both men and women. Football would eat up a huge chunk of Men's scholarships. I think Title IX would be perfect if they excluded football from the equation.

Or if schools started women's football. Could be good springtime fun.

Spoelstra isn't whining, and he's not telling the truth. He's working the officials, and I wouldn't be surprised if this is the product of the advice of Pat Riley. This is smart. From here on out, the Pacers will get away with absolutely nothing.

Mets fan here. Grew up in Louisiana and didn't want to root for a Texas team. Paid a little attention to the Twins because my dad rooted for them. For a short while interested in the Giants because of their Shreveport affiliation. Moved to NY six years ago, gave it three years of hard thinkin', and went with the Mets. I could give you several other reasons, but I think it's simply put to say that I'm the new guy here, and the Mets are the new team, so they're for me. Let's Go Mets.

Make sure you don't get screwed into buying the crappy arse outfield seats that have half the field obstructed by a friggin sports bar.

Sections 239 and 201. Those are the only two fyi.

I like TNT ?

Watching TNT doesn't make you retarded. Ernie is the shite.

He is the best player in the world, and no one has a cleaner criminal record than he does, and he pays more in taxes annually than any of us will in our lives.

Sounds like the OP envies him.

I'd rather see the Lebron haters lose than see Lebron lose. Geaux Heat.
