The Real Season is Upon Us

After a thrilling final weekend in the NFL, the playoffs begin next week. The NFC is much well rounded with all for wild card teams (Philly, San Francisco, New Orleans, and Green Bay) all with a realistic chance to win the Super Bowl. The same cannot be said about the AFC teams. Indy, Cincinnati, San Diego (Really?), and Kansas City do not seem to have a real chance to win. The only team you can make a case for is Cincy because of their defense, but they are also lead by this dog whisperer.

Chargers Vs. Bengals(-6.5) (46O/U)

The Chargers are more unpredictable than Kanye West. I got to take the under and the dog whisperer

Chiefs Vs. Colts (-2.5) (46O/U)

Who cannot love the story of Andy Reid, Alex Smith and the Chiefs. Both send offs of their former teams for no real good reason and leading the loyal fans of Kansas City to a 11-5 record. They have a smart coach, great running attack (Jamal Charles and the emergence of Knile Davis), good QB, and a good Defense. All seems to be a good recipe for playoff football, but a closer look reveals they have lost 5 out of 7 games. All the loses being to the Broncos(twice), Chargers(Twice), and Colts all teams in the their way. Good job, good effort Kansas City, but  I will take the Colts and the over. Andrew Luck knows how to win while being almost as boring as Joe Flacco.

Saints Vs. Oregon East (-2.5) (55O/U)

The Eagles enter as the most dangerous team in the playoffs. Too many play makers to count on one hand. They have the best QB since October in Nick Foles (27TDS-2INTs) while leading the Eagles to a 9-3 record. The most versatile running back in LeSean McCoy and the hardest to tackle in the open field since Barry Sanders. I cannot see the Eagles losing at home in cold, Philly weather when the Bayou Domers come into town. Drew Brees is a great quarterback, but his one trip and win to the Super Bowl was aided by playing in the Super Dome every weekend. I expect Brees to put up points, but Philly to put up more. Taking Oregon East and the over.

I watch VanderPump Rules and I do not care who knows it

The show is just enough blend of hot chicks scantily clad that I keep coming back for more. It has enough element of crazy in each episode that their inflated egos can be displayed.They all work at some upscale restaurant owned by one of the housewives.  It is comical how much it mirrors the MTV show The Hills. 

Stassi (Kristen Cavallari)
-Girl is ruthless and plays with the strings of her ex-boyfriend heart, Jax at will. Obviously the Queen B whose battle for the camera with Scheana is always on display. She is a few years away from marrying Andrew Luck.
 

Kristen (Audrina Patridge)
-Similar to Audrina, not the sharpest tool in the shed. Continues to date her boyfriend, Tom who cheated on her with some chick from Vegas. Insanely jealous and insecure. Despises that they recently added her boyfriend's really attractive girl friend Ariana to the show. An exciting character who could snap at any moment. Great work Bravo.



Ariana ( Lauren Conrad)
-Comes in as the Tom's really good friend. Super chill and likable character. Makes Kristen insanely jealous because of vicious rumors. If I could get some stock in Ariana to parlay this show into some financial success the way Lauren Conrad did, this is my horse.



Katie (Lo Bosworth)
- Stassi's fiercely loyal friend who does not provide much, but head nods whenever Stassi talks. Every Queen B needs her not as cute sidekick to always be there for them.



Tom (Justin Bobby)
-Kristen's boyfriend who seems to be pretty normal minus dating the Kristen girl. Is in a band with big ambitions and had the benefit of doing a show at a fair with an attendance of 40 people(30 of the people being the film crew or Bravo employees).


Jax 
- Classic meatstick who is flourishing in his early 30s as a bartender. Occasionally gets modeling gigs and is  so infatuated with his ex-girlfriend, Stassi that he got her name tattooed on his arm a year after they broke up. I feel rude comparing him to one of the Hills  guys because this level of stupidity is groundbreaking.



Scheana (Heidi Montag)
- Last, but not least. A delusional 7 that thinks she is the best thing since sliced bread.  Slept with one of the housewives husbands. After having a tooth removed, acted as if she had triple bi-pass surgery. Is confident her new fame will bolster her music career. A crazy boyfriend away from being pinpoint Heidi.

Kobe putting Old Man Rivers in his place

Say what you want about Kobe's lack of social graces at times, but props to him standing up to an old man rambling. Jim Brown was quoted saying Bryant was "confused about culture" because he grew up in Italy from the age of 6 to 13. Brown went on later to commit on how Brown would not have had invited Kobe to Brown's Black Economic Union that he founded and organized in the 60s.

Brown's attempt at insinuating that Kobe did not experience enough "black culture" is short sighted. Granted, the America that Brown grew up in was a lot different, but so was Kobe's generation. Kobe tackled the argument like a seasoned, cultured, International superstar that he is. Kobe responded with "what I've been trying to do, is try to educate out youth going forward, no matter what color skin you are-- just try to talk about having a bright future and how to help kids going forward and progress as a society as a whole."

For the two steps back Brown took it, Kobe proceeded to take three forward. Well done Kobe.

Terrorist or American Girl?

The fastest way to determine whether a girl you are hooking up with is a terrorist or a normal person is simply by the size of their television. There is not much more science to it. After spending an away game at this drink of water's apartment, it is clear she is one of Putin's finest. If you are going to blend in as a normal American your television needs to be above '32 inches. I understand girls do not need big televisions to watch the housewives bicker at each other. I get it... high definition is not needed. I have even frequented the run of the mill hippy chick who has a pile of Kurt Vonnegut books and no T.V. I can handle that, but if you are going to make the attempt at a T.V. have some self respect. There are three things men need: (1) Va-jean (2) Food (3) Minimum of'40 inches of high definition. No faster way to a man's heart.
