RANDOM THOUGHTS:
The following were on my mind between Thursday, November 19th and Monday, November 23rd:
- Pretty good to the season of "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Pretty...pretty...pretty good. I thought the flow between the "Seinfeld" and the world of the show was really well done and I liked how it all came out in the end. Plus, Larry and Cheryl got together (I think, because what happened at the end with the whole respecting wood bit may have gotten Cheryl to remember whys she left him in the first place and she called the whole thing off) and their were some nice moments in it too like Larry trying to play George Castanza, the stare-down between Larry and Jerry Seinfeld and the tipping by Larry to Mocha Joe.
Having said that (see what I did just now?) it wasn't as great of a season finale as the previous three were and since most of the moments from the Seinfeld reunion* script was recycled from last week's episode, it wasn't that funny. Also, no Leon OR Marty Funkhouser? The show was 40% less funny because of that. Overall, while it was not the best episode of the season, it was still in the top five, along with "Vehicular Felatio," "Denise Handicapped," "Officer Krupke," and "The Table Read," and I can't wait for the next season (whenever and ifever it happens).
- "What are they doing?!" "WHAT ARE THEY DOING?!" Geez, Verne Lundquist, tell us how you really feel!
- Boy, how great was that Browns-Lions game? You almost forgot for a second how both these teams suck. I also feel kind of sad for the Lions, as this game happened the Sunday before Thanksgiving, when the game was being blacked out in Detroit, and not on Thanksgiving itself, when most football fans in the country will be watching it.
- Al Gore sounds very drowsy while narrating the end of "An Inconveniant Truth," as if he hadn't slept for hours.
- The safety is the most important position in football, next to the quarterback. I mean, look how bad the Steelers are without Troy Polamalu, or how worse the Colts are defensively without Bob Sanders, or how bad the Bears are without Mike Borwn, or how the Ealges secondary is worse without Brian Dawkins.
- I hope the Bears don't play on Sunday Night Football anymore this season. Not only do the Bears struggle while playing during the games, but I'm also tired of hearing Al Michaels saying the same things about the team (mostly about Jay Cutler), like:
"Jay Cutler and Earl Bennett were teammates at Venderbilt when Cutler was a senior and Bennett was a freshman"
" Jay Cutler" blah, blah, blah "savior" blah, blah, blah "not working out"
" So far, Jay Cutler has not been ready for Sunday Night"
- Thanksgiving is just simply awesome. You can spend time with your loved ones, eat as much food as possible, do anything you want after that AND you get a day off the next day for no real reason whatsoever.
- Dear NBC, FOX, CBS, ESPN and the NFL Network,
When showing coverage of a Bears game, please stop showing reactions of Lovie Smith after every bad play against Chicago. All he does is look up into space and act like nothing just happened. That's it. Don't expect a moment where he actually shows some emotion. Also, I'm sick of looking at his dazed and confused face. That is all.
And that's that (man, I've got to make better concluding sentences!). I'm not sure if I really want to do another random thoughts post this week, with Thanksgiving break and all that, so just keep out for lookout later this week. Until then, enjoy your Thanksgiving planning.
Sincerely,
