For those of you who don't know....

Braff Leaving 'Scrubs' for Big Screen

Zach Braff loves making movies so much, he's going to quit his role in "Scrubs" to concentrate on his film career.

Braff, who plays Dr. John "JD" Dorian in the TV comedy, realized his future lies on the big screen after the success of "Garden State," which he wrote, directed and starred in.

He tells Premiere magazine, "My guess is that this will be my last season (on 'Scrubs').
"Whether or not they continue without me, I don't know.


"I have had this amazing run on the show and I love it and I'm so grateful, but I want to make movies full time."

------------------------------------------------------------

What an idiot, first he breaks up with Mandy Moore, then he says he's quiting the best show on TV......grrrrr.....

Hollywood Horse-Crap










The summer movie season has come and gone now. There was intrigue with The DaVinci code and X-men 3 was ok. Pirates was awesome. Superman was good. Talladega Nights is cleaning up at the box office, even though it's about a fake sport.

People went to the movies this summer. It wasn't THAT bad.

But now I look to see what there is, and what do I find?

Accepted?

Barnyard?

You, me, and dupree?

Little Man?

Material Girls?

Step Up? Zoom? John Tucker must die?

What is this crap? Have we becomes such an incredibly frivalous society that we don't want to go see movies with substance? Studios only approve movies to be made that they think people will see. They gather this from data of what people have been seeing. This problem was created by the people.

Don't go see this crap, people. Snakes on a plane??? Come on!

It is truly insulting to me to see this list of movies. Its demeaning, belittling, disparaging, degrading, and deprecating to everyone who is able to use the word deprecating.

The actors are just as much to blame for agreeing to make this dumb crap. Too much stupid gag humor. Where is the witty dialogue? Where are the fresh ideas? Where is the movie in this bunch that is going to capture my imagination? Talking animals? No. Making their own college and showing pretty girls? Hmmm no! There is not one imaginative movie in the bunch.

What a bunch of pathetic crap.

If you want my 8 bucks you're going to have to try harder than that. We're going to see "Little miss Sunshine" this weekend, I hope. At least that seems like something other than cheap eye candy and gag humor.

Things are starting to pick up....









Yes friends, summer is starting wind down, and Sports are starting to heat up. Soon it will be baseball playoff season. lol. I'm kidding....and now, sports....

-A hollywood agent won the WSOP Main Event yesterday....."Jamie Gold"..... weirdness. The grand prize was an absurd $12 million. WOW. According to the AP, he did a lot of bluffing and had pocket queens at a couple of very convenient times. Can't wait to see some of this on ESPN!

-Elsewhere, Dirk poured it on all over Yao Mings face (hey now!) today in a warm up for the FIBA Basketball World Championships. But according to FoxSports, "Dirk ruined Yaos welcome back party." So pretty much they can go to hell.

-Football, football everywhere! Yes the gloriousness (is that a word?) of the NFL season is upon us. And though these preseason games don't mean anything, it pretty much rules, because I missed football. Cheers to the Cowboys dying a horrible T.O. related death!!

-The Rangers, are not totally out of it. But they are going to need some help. Even though the pitching still sucks, the bats decided to come alive the other day. We'll keep a not-so-watchfull eye on this....

-And in 37 days, we will be in our new season seats, watching the Dallas Stars kickoff their preseason, against the Atlanta Thrashers. Don't worry my poor poor Brendan Morrow jersey, you can come out of the closet (so to speak) very soon....

Public Service Anouncement....

I'd like to take 2 quick minutes to report this breaking news.

The Rangers are officialy dead tonight, having lost to the A's.

Thank you Rangers, for getting us up to NFL pre season. You fell short of NHL pre season, but hey, we'll take what we can get.

Thank you,

Genius Comedy.....bad bad sooners....
















LOL! Thanks to "The Crippler" for posting this photoshop gold on www.dallas-mavs.com

If you haven't heard, "Zero-U" had their starting quarter back kicked off the team, because apparently he was "working" at a car dealership and got paid a little too much money for hours that he didn't actually work.

BTW, it happens to be a Long Horn in the picture knocking this guy.... I in no way support the Whiney-Orange, and I hope the next time these two teams play, it ends in a scoreless tie, and they both drop out of the top 25..... bunch of toilet licking rednecks from both schools....

Funny stuff though.

Some real (not the rigged BCS crap) football starts this weekend. NFL pre-season will be under way this Sunday night, on NBC. yay!

Mavericks schedule out


















(This pic has nothing to do with anything, I just like it....)


Having picked out my season tickets for the Stars, I find myself much wanting in the basketball department. I'd love a 10 game Mavs package too. But alas, I am but a humble entry level "go-for" in the corporate world, and must wait my turn to have enough income to waste on season tickets to more than one team.

Among the highlights of the season...

- 32 ESPN, TNT, and NBA Tv appearances. Holy crap.

- Opener vs San Antonio!!! on Nov 2nd. Kind of wish they had an easier game to start off with....

- Miami comes to town in Feb, Mavs play @ Miami in January.

- 13 back to backs.... scheduled losses....

- A 6 game road trip in the critical last part of the season. gAY.
