This week the ELO features Summer Glau. She’ll be appearing in an upcoming episode of the recently canned Dollhouse. If FOX sticks to the schedule, she’ll be appearing on our TV screens on December 4th.
After the jump, Brett Ratner is a jack-ass, FOX has turned into the Seth MacFarlane Network and we take a look back at the loss of another great show. Continue reading
I’m a late call-up to drop the links today. Making her first appearance on the blog, here’s Nicole Kidman.
We all think that the NHL just hands out suspensions randomly. We know that’s how they do it in the OHL. But the NHL does have a very scientific method to dole out punishment. (Down Goes Brown)
Speaking of hockey suspensions, a minor league coach was suspended indefinitely for one of the best tirades of all time. This man should be given a medal for his performance. (Deadspin)
One last hockey(-ish) link: There’s hockey and Canadian content in this competition to find the worst jersey in the history of North American sports. (Uni Watch)
After the jump, lots of car stuff, sports fan protests, and some photo gallery. Continue reading
Here’s Jenn Sterger who’s been making news lately. More on her in a bit.
I’ve had some bad coaches growing up but they were mostly of the incompetent kind. But the stars of the Asshole Coach Digest take the cake. (Deadspin)
Hold on to your breakfasts because here’s the 10 most brutal hockey injuries of the last ten years. If Zednik’s cut on the neck was only #3, there’s some bad ones on here. (Puck Daddy)
While those were gruesome in a bad way, these fatal injuries are hilarious. That’s because the victim in all 25 deaths is South Park’s Kenny McCormick. (IGN)
After the jump, more women’s soccer violence, a pair of Jennifers, and the greatest mashup of all-time. Continue reading
Blake Lively kicks off another link-dump because, well, isn’t that obvious?
The video of the women’s college soccer catfight has made the rounds of the sports blogosphere. I have to say, though, they impressed me with their drive and tenacity. And, as much as she scares me, if Elizabeth Lambert ever wants to give me a call… (Deadspin)
I thought to myself: What would be almost as good as a picture of Blake Lively to link to? How about Carrie Fisher and her stunt double sunbathing in their metal bikinis? (Sci Fi Wire)
Life lesson: Double check who you’re sending your emails to. For example, if you work for a business school, don’t forward your string of emails with your mistress to the whole school. (Guest of a Guest)
After the jump, tons of Top Gear, the greatest man caves, and some disgraced baseball players surface. Continue reading
Now we return to your regular scheduled programming. That’s right, after a week off, I’m back with the latest Entertainment Link-Off. Steve did an awesome job with the ELO last week and it looks like he didn’t scare you guys away. This week features the songstress Pixie Lott. She’s already a massive hit over in Europe. Now when will she make a stop here in Canada?
After the jump Kick-Ass actually kicks ass, a few movie lists to check out, November Sweeps and a look at how Transformers 2 should have ended. Continue reading
When in doubt, Blake Lively is the smart way to go.
So what have we learned about Andre Agassi before reading his book. Well, he took crystal meth and now we know that he was a hustler. (FanIQ)
Want to be on the FOX NFL Pregame show? Then you should review this secret internal memo so you know what you’d be in for. (Sports Pickle)
Hockey is full of weird superstitions. I didn’t know that the order of the team as they walked out of the dressing room was one of them. (Globe and Mail)
After the jump, loads of hockey links, a new way to learn how to drive, and a new way to drive in the snow. Continue reading
Welcome to the great link-off experiment. I’m back on the entertainment beat again. Leading things off is Jewel. Anyone else miss her? Not her music, just her.
Greatest comic strips ever. Mashing up classic comics strips with sci-fi characters. (Ryan Dunlavey)
This Star Wars comic proves that the Force is strong with this one. Apparently an adolescent sense of humour isn’t as strong, though. (Bad Librarianship)
The only thing worse than the Harry Potter movies and the last few Harry Potter books is having the name Harry Potter. (Daily Mail)
After the jump, movie news, how to survive the prime time armageddon caused by the World Series, and parking: you’re doing it wrong. Continue reading
It’s time for a very spooky linkdump. Actually, my intro is as scary as it gets. Well, Olivia Munn is scary hot. That’s for sure.
With the Maple Leafs getting only 4 points out of a possible 22 from their first 11 games, it’s no wonder that Make Believes fans are bailing on their club. (LA Times)
Minor league hockey is getting into the Halloween spirit. An ECHL team is wearing special uniforms for Michael Jackson Appreciation Night. Yes, they’re wearing one white glove with the kit. (Icethetics)
I’d be willing to bet that there will be a lawsuit over ex-NBA ref Tim Donaghy’s new book. The NBA should be running scared of some of the accusations in there. (Deadspin)
After the jump, the future of email, geeky ways to celebrate Halloween, and the best costume you’ll see all day. Continue reading
Something not funny is how ridiculously hot Tricia Helfer is. Almost makes me regret missing Battlestar Whatever.
The internet is making us all comedians. The only problem is that I’m less funny on the internet than in person and on radio. (Washington Post)
Case in point for the above: With Halloween around the corner, it was only appropriate that Colonel Sanders rose from the grave to visit the United Nations. (Daily Telegraph)
If you’re a Chicago Bears fan, I’d take this as a sign that you should be begging Roger Goodell to void the summer’s big trade. (Tremendous Upside)
After the jump, hockey in England, screwing sports folks, and in some good and bad driving. Continue reading
Normally there would be a new release or something for me to plug at the start of the Entertainment Link-Off, but I got none this week. So here’s Jessica Stroup (again) because she’s gorgeous and not because she’s on 90210 (yes, I can’t believe that show is still on the air). Oh by the way I will be off next week, so Steve is taking over the Entertainment Link-Off. Be very afraid.
After the jump the awesomeness of Twitter, Paranormal Activity cuts into Saw’s box office numbers and Grocery Store Musical! Continue reading
