lowest common denominator

Normally I am not a huge fan of remakes, but this looks pretty good. Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger is pretty inspired casting.

A man goes to the Pittsburgh Steelers ticket office and inquires about purchasing playoff tickets. The teller replies that there weren’t any tickets for sale because the Steelers did not make it to the playoffs.

The following day the same man goes to the Pittsburgh Steelers ticket office and inquires about purchasing Steelers playoff tickets. The ticket teller politely replies that there weren’t any tickets for sale because the Steelers did not make it to the playoffs.

This goes on for an entire week. The man goes to the Steelers ticket office inquiring about playoff tickets and the teller says none are for sale because the Steelers did not make it to the playoffs.

Another week of this goes by and the man still is asking the ticket teller about Steelers playoff tickets. Finally the ticket teller in a loud voice says, “I’VE TOLD YOU FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS THERE WERE NOT ANY TICKETS AVAILABLE BECAUSE THE STEELERS DID NOT MAKE THE PLAYOFFS!”

The man replied, “I know. I drive all the way from Cleveland just to hear you say that!”

Sarah Palin has had a good sense of humor about herself recently and she went on the Late Show recently and gave William Shatner a bit of his own medicine.

I feel terrible for Braylon Edwards. This pass was perfectly thrown and would have turned into an 84 yard touchdown pass.

This has to be the silliest video ever. They are overdubbing to what it LOOKS like the character is saying.
