We're taking bets that all men should read and watch this post...

I have to applaud Glamour magazine and hope that they do this more often. They had a picture in this month's issue of a plus-size model that is turning the women's magazine world on it's head. It is of a very beautiful woman who has a stomach. WHAT? Crazy talk. Someone that looks like most women in the world. (except for the fact that she is incredibly beautiful with a slamming smile.)

I know that there are so many guys who would skoff at the fact that she is a size 12 to 14, but I think there needs to be a readjustment. I may be heavy, but even with that fact I am treated better than women who might be heavy are. I just don't get it. I definitely can appreciate the Megan Fox's, Angelina Jolie's and Jennifer Aniston's of this world. I used to be completely in love with Rachel from Friends. That doesn't mean normal sized or plus size women are not beautiful, sexy and head turners. To be honest my favorite actress when I was a kid was Maureen O'Hare from Parent Trap, Miracle on 34th Street and Quiet Man. She was by no means a small woman, but she was incredibly beautiful.

Until we and by we I mean guys change our views and stop allowing the media to dictate what is beautiful we are going to have women with body issues. I think that women are the most incredible thing ever created and love that they come in all shapes and sizes. (Though I do have a problem with the crazy ones. :) I hope that Lizzi Miller and Glamour can inspire women to change how they are viewed and get guys to understand that beauty comes in many sizes.

We're taking bets that sleep is overrated...

Some thoughts:

* I am functioning on very little sleep and think I am performing at a very high level. While I would love more sleep this is the way it is going to be. Maybe it is because I love what I am doing, but I will sleep plenty when I am dead. :)

* You should wait to rub in something to a rival. Nothing else to say about that, but it is the truth.

* I will be out tomorrow at camp. No Blog. Sorry.

* The weather has been freaky lately and the weather people haven't a clue as to what is going to happen. You have to love New England. At least summer is finally here.

* Working with college students is probably one of the top ten greatest things you can do with your life. Especially my staff of 11 RAs who might be the best RAs I have ever had as a unit in an upperclassmen area at QU. :)

WTBT Volume 6 Series 2009...

We're taking bets that...

* the whooping the Sox are taking currently seems very reminiscent of 2004.
* I am just saying.
* it is hard to not sing when Use Somebody by Kings of Leon comes on the radio.
* I hope Brett Favre has an awful season for the Vikings.
* you can't believe that Hawaii is only in it's 50th year as a state.
* Hawaii is such a mature state for it's age.
* you are really excited to join CLUCK!!!
* the Little League World Series is truly quality baseball.
* making a mistake thirteen times just seems like way too much.
* James Cameron's Avatar trailer looks unbelievable and very eerie all at the same time.
* I could probably invent a better pool toy than the foam noodle.
* you have no idea what the foam noodle is for other than hitting other people.
* sometimes badgers do not even have a chance at survival.
* badgers love Spencer Gifts.
* there is nothing worse than depression except deep depression.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week

While I know some people hate this feature I enjoy it so it is back. :)

Hottie Colbie Caillat has a new CD coming out on Tuesday and it is great. She is quite a cutie. Colbie is your next door neighbor type girl who seems like she would be fun to hang out with. As always I absolutely love her smile. I hope you like her too.

We're taking bets that sometimes it is okay to answer questions with a question especially when dealing with aliens...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I do not completely support President Obama with his Health Plan because I think it does not do enough, but at least I know he is trying. With that being said anyone comparing Obama to a Nazi gets whatever is coming to them. Crazy Barney Frank from good old Massachusetts had to confront one of these wackos at a Town Hall meeting in Dartmouth, MA. Watch what he does. I absolutely love it. You have to be direct and just tell things like they are. She actually called a Jew a Nazi supporter. That is as crazy as calling the sun a lollipop and the clouds pickles. Only wackos can do things like that. What I don't get is why the wackos(Lou Dobbs) are always getting on TV. You can disagree with the president. You don't even have to them as a person, but there is a limit to what we should say to the people around us about others. Just saying something shocking does not get your point across it just makes you look foolish and stupid!!!

We're taking bets that Lance Armstrong still has some pull

Did you hear what Lance Armstrong did in Scotland? I would be lucky to get my best friend to come if I gave him a direct invite and he probably owes me one. (Actually I probably owe him.) It is amazing to me the power of the technology today. Granted I still don't have a cell phone, but I still get by and I understand most technology better than people with cell phones. Everyone is now a little bit international. I mean a bike ride with Lance Armstrong is cool on so many levels as long as he isn't racing you. Then you are pretty much done.

People can say all they want about Lance doping, but I have a hard time believing it. The amount he has done to help find a cure for cancer and making it cool in the process is amazing. Everyone wants a little piece of him. Though I am glad the wristband craze has faded out. More celebrities need to be involved in causes as publically as Lance. He has completely put himself out there. Lots of them donate time, which is great, but to actually explain why you support said charity and inspire others is what all celebrities can do. Even Heidi and Spencer who are fake celebrities. I just wanted you all know that Lance Armstrong inspires me to do what I can. As he said in Dodgeball...

"Quit? You know, once I was thinking of quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends and family, I got back on the bike and won the Tour de France 5 times in a row. But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying of that's keeping you from the finals?... Well, I guess if a person never quit when the going got tough, they wouldn't anything to regret for the rest of their life. Well good luck to you!"

WTBT Volume 5 Series 2009...

We're taking bets that...

* it is not fun out of the play-offs.
* sometimes you can be way too good at hiding.
* Hurricane season is here and it is going to be a good one.
* if you don't love the Little League World Series something is seriously wrong with you.
* I am shocked no one commented about my dissing of Dane Cook.
* Tiger is just not the same golfer he was before his injury.
* the biggest cupcake will probably not be the most moist cupcake.
* it is very weird how much women hate the word moist.
* it is almost as bad as Can't Understand Nothing Today.
* speaking of moist you should check out the moist towelette Museum.
* David Wright getting beaned was very scary.
* the world is backwards when a two year old cat can get a high school diploma and it takes me forever to get my master's degree.
* sometimes it is hard to decide which is the best risk to take.
* otters hate France; Brigitte France.
* it kind of makes me happy to hear Michael Vick cried in prison.
* I really am a nice guy, but every once in a while there is a little bit of mean in me.
* tax-free week in CT is super cool.
* people who dislike the word moist should really boycott Duncan Hines because they really embrace it.
* I bet you didn't think I was going to use moist again in this post.
* most of this blog is just to make me laugh.
* Top Chef and Project Runway premieres should make this a good week to watch TV again.
* it is very weird when on a Monday morning at 8:40ish there was a line at the liquor store and no one in Dunkin Donuts.

We're taking bets that I am probably right and you are probably wrong...

Here are a few observations that I have made over the last few days.

* Some people are too sensitive for their own good. It must be debilitating to react like a crazy person to everything people say or do around you. You should not be bringing stress into my life. I know that I am too laid back, but that doesn't mean I am looking for the worry train to come my way. Remember most of the time it is not about you. We are all really too self-centered to be talking or acting for your benefit. Of course I know many of you think I am talking about you, but I am not. I am talking about other people with at least one person you don't know in mind.

* I am not always proud being a male when I go out with my friends. Overall guys are creepers and I am sorry women have to put up with it. I am a watcher when I go out. (Sounds intrusive I know, but more of a watcher of what happens not a stalker making people uncomfortable.) It is weird watching guys "accidentally" rub up against a woman or grab a girl and make her talk to them. It makes things harder for the nice guy who takes a 1/2 hour to go up to a girl to even say hi and walk away. Most women are already on the defense because of you creepers. Do me a favor... make eye contact first then go up to the person and dance. Don't be sneaky or touchy.

* When you are in a supermarket (Big Y, Stop & Shop) please do not block the whole aisle. It is wide enough for the both of us. (Even a big guy like me) When you see me coming (and I know you see me) get out of the way. We should not have to put lights on the carts so I can flash you to get out of the way. I am not going high speed down the aisle. Well at least when there are people in the aisle. It is frustrating because the worst part is you look at me like I am inconveniencing you for even saying "Excuse Me". I have decided that I am going to wait for you to get in line and then get behind you and hit you in the back of the ankle with my cart. Then I will say, "Sorry I didn't see you there because I am a jerk like you." I also may put a few items on the belt that you didn't select to see what happens. It may annoy you, but you deserve it and it will make me much happier on my ride home.

WTBT Volume 4 Series 2009

We're taking bets that...

* it is good to be back.
* the Red Sox comeback last night might be the start of something special.
* Damon Weaver rocks and might be better than Katie at interviewing.
* sometimes the end is not the end.
* Kevin Hart is freaking hilarious and you should check out his comedy special "I am a Grown Little Man."
* older people are weird when it comes to going to the park.
* race is probably the issue with that park.
* it was great seeing Tom Brady play football again.
* cinnamon does not plump up your lips.
* stupidity comes in all sizes and usually it is somewhere in an active tornado area.
* you should be excited that the EPL has started.
* most of you are trying to figure out what the EPL is.
* it might just be me, but Mariah Carey breast still keep getting bigger with each album she puts out.
* everyone being a winner or getting a prize has gone too far.
* when you see eye to eye with someone on an issue it is no one else's business.
* you need to check out the trailer for the movie Legion. It's going to be badass.
* Dane Cook might not be funny anymore.
* Jon needs to be punched in his face a lot and Kate needs a hair cut.
* if I had known I would of found a guy to do this with today because I support gay marriage.
* 7+ hours in a classroom is way too long.
* Austrians have really big mailboxes.
* it is probably because their postcards are the size of poster board and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

We're taking bets you can't wait for August 15th

The triumphant return of the WTBT blog will be back and posting daily. I know you can't wait. I have a lot of stuff to say. I will be bringing the funny and no one can stop me.

We're taking bets that I will be back soon...

I know no one is reading this, but I will be back soon. 

We're taking bets that Ikea is a big fire hazard...

I spent a little time in Ikea New Haven this weekend.  I have decided that if you need to get out of there in a hurry you are screwed. If there was a fire you would die. No one knows how to navigate that store. I have only been in one Ikea, but I imagine everywhere is like that.  Most of the people are just there for the cheap food and to have a place for their kids to play for a couple of hours. You would think that the economy was thriving while I was there. While some of there furniture is a little cool it is way too complicated to put together correctly. They do have the best shopping carts ever though. Those Swedes are definitely an interesting bunch and I truly believe they really just want to kill us all with their store designs. Are you a fan of Ikea?

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Salma Hayek just got married to some French guy. Granted he was her son's father, but he is just some French guy. I fell in love with her during the movie Fools Rush In with Matthew Perry. She has been awesome on 30 Rock as a guest recently. I thought I would pay some tribute to her. Remember it is very hard to find good pictures of Salma without her biggest assets.

Fools Rush In - Trailer - The most amazing videos are a click away

WTBT Volume 3 Series 2009...

We're taking bets that...

* American Idol has been pretty boring this year.
* Joaquin Phoenix is getting more bizarre every public appearence he makes.
* UCONN/UNC will be the championship games in both men's and women's basketball.
* Blagojevich keeps digging himself into a bigger hole.
* A-Rod should now be nicknamed A-Fraud.
* it is nice to bond with your children, but letting your 8 year old drive seems wrong.
* Chris Brown better "Run It" from jail because he is going to be someone's bitch for what he did to Rihanna.
* I think he was pissed at her because she could not stop the music.
* this is a great story of heroism and uniting people.
* sometimes you just need to joke to make things seem better.
* LOST has been excellent and if you don't watch you are missing out on some of the best television ever.

We're taking bets that you don't like Alex Rodriguez...

So Alex Rodriguez has admitted to taking performance enhancing drugs from 2001 to 2003. I am going to add that to the list of why I can't stand him. The Sox had the Curse of the Bambino, but now the Yankees are going to have the Curse of A-Rod. He is not a good teammate and he gets paid way too much money to be a steroid taking baseball player. I don't even care if he is a Yankee. Most Yankee fans can't stand him either. His apology seemed a little hollow and I don't believe that it was only his Texas years that he doped. Below is his response to his interview with Peter Gammons. I wonder what you all think?

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Hottie Carrie Underwood was looking awesome at the Grammy's. She is definitely the sexiest vegetarian I have ever seen. Plus she's got some great pipes.

We're taking bets that people love facebook and it is getting annoying...

So very early I made a decision that I was not going to participate in the 25 things about me Facebook stuff.  Mainly because I am not a huge sharer, but secondly because most people don't care and it usually is not interesting.  Over the last few weeks we have been innundated with "you've been tagged" and these dumb things. I must admit that I do read my close friends because I am curious what they say and want to see if I will really learn anything new.  Most of the stuff is just weird and 99% of the people put in the opening line they were never going to do this, but guess what you did.

Time magazine had a great article called "25 Things I Don't Want To Know About You".  It is kind of funny and worth a read.  Overall Facebook is great. I was a very early member and take pride that I knew about it before a gazillion others.  The only problem I have is that now that people over 30 have it they get addicted to the weird little things. Like my mother and forwards in the end of 90's and the early part of the decade. These things are never ending.  Please make them stop.

WTBT Volume 2 Series 2009...

We're taking bets that...

* if you already have six kids you don't use fertility drugs to have eight more.

* you have to congratulate Pat Summitt for winning 1,000 game with Tennessee.

* I still don't have to like her or the Lady Volunteers.

* only NYC could search for the mysteriously great smell of syrup.

* Michael Phelps deserves all of the bad press he is getting and just because he is 23 years old doesn't give him carte blanc to do something stupid.

* Jon Stewart really doesn't give Barack Obama much slack like many people thought he would.

* butterflies are beautiful, but kind of like some beautiful women I know they are conniving too.

* most people don't even realize my blog is back.

We're taking bets that this is why I am a fan of Dane Cook...

He is really funny and he does comedy for his fans. I hope his new material is not all about sex though.

WTBT Volume 1 Series 2009...

We're taking bets that...

* the Super Bowl commercials were a little better than in recent years.

* UCONN will be national champions in men's and women's basketball this year.

* The Office Super Bowl episodes had its moments, but it was a little overrated.

* Big Bang Theory is easily the funniest show on TV.

* be careful when a guy has pigeons in his pants.

* Manny Rameriz is an idiot for not taking the Dodgers $25 million offer.

* Bikini Girl is going to be the best story for American Idol in the next week.

* it stinks when you use your education for evil.

* it is definitely refreshing to hear the President of the United States say he made a mistake.

* the best catch in the Super Bowl is still Lynn Swann's falling down and catching his own tip.

We're taking bets that you are not this good...

The pilot who landed the plane in the Hudson River, Chelsey Sullenberger, might be the most responsible person in America.  One of the books he loaned out from the library was on that plane. He asked the library for an extension to pay his fines.  Uh Dude your plane CRASHED I think we can give you a pass on this one.  The library did the right thing by waving his fines.  Get this though. The title of the book... PROFESSIONAL ETHICS! You cannot make this stuff up with a pen and paper.  Crazy.  In this crazy economy it makes feel good that there are people who do the right thing even if they don't have to.

We're taking bets that this is why I love pugs...

We're taking bets that Christmas just won't be the same...

I am off to South Carolina today to spend Christmas with my parents and siblings.  It is just not going to be the same, but at least I will be with family. Keep checking the blog as I will be updating everyday. Not much else to do. :)

We're taking bets that TV is good again...

It is time for my Top Twenty TV shows of 2008. They have changed quite a bit from 2007 and 2006.

Hopefully at some point 24 will actually make it back to the list. I just hope there is not another strike.

Honorable Mention: Deadliest Catch; America's Toughest Jobs; Fringe; Scrubs, Friday Night Lights, SNL, Life on Mars, 24: Redemption

20. Pushing Daisies - It had a rough return from the strike, but had really come into its own and I hope somehow it can be saved.

19. Eli Stone - ABC could you please stop putting on shows that I enjoy with characters that I like and then not give them enough time to grow. You kept According to Jim on for years!!!

18. My Name is Earl - Still a great show that has some of the best laugh out loud moments.

17. Battlestar Galactica - I cannot wait for the last few episodes. What happened to Earth?

16. Heroes - It really has lost something. I still enjoy it, but I really hope that it can make a comeback with this next chapter.

15. CSI - Still compelling television, but losing Warrick and Grissom will be really tough. Laurence Fisherburne might be okay.

14. CSI Miami - Horatio isn't dead because much like Chuck Norris nothing hurts Horatio Caine.

13. Top Chef - It just keeps getting better. I love Fab and the Rainbow group this year.

12. The Daily Show with John Stewart - Election coverage was super awesome. You cannot beat a John Stewart interview.

11. Sanctuary - This Sci-Fi show just keeps getting better. Last week's episode was incredible especially from a TV reporter point of view.

10. The Mentalist - Great new show with a lot of humor and good cases to solve. Plus Simon Baker is a looker. :)

9. House - #13 is just one of the great reasons to watch this always entertaining show. Miracle birth anyone? 

8. NCIS - What a great show!!  It is so much fun and it starts each new scene in a really cool way.

7. 30 Rock - I know it is the Emmy winner, but it still isn't the funniest show on TV to me. Gotta love Kenneth though.

6. How I Met Your Mother - Who the hell is the mother? What is with the goat?  Consistently funny.

5. Life - This might be the best show people are not watching.  Who shot Crews? What is going on with Reese?  I think I am going to become a little zen.

4. The Office - Some weeks it is the best show on television.  Too much weird stuff with Angela and Dwight.  Can't Dwight just be himself every week?

3. Chuck - Nerdy spy with a super hot handler.  Fun situations every week and character that are really funny.

2. Big Bang Theory - If you are not watching this show you are wasting your Monday nights. It is absolutely hysterical every single week.

1. LOST - Holy Crap I cannot wait for this show to start again.  Going back to the island. Maybe back in time. How will they get there. What is going to happen? Who knows, but I will be there on January 21st!!!

THE FIRST BIG SNOW OF THE YEAR IS HERE!!!

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Year...

The Hottie of 2008 has talent and beauty all rolled into one. Rihanna!!! She was all over the place in 2008 and you cannot really doubt her beauty. Plus she spent some time with Chris Brown and he seems to know hot women. She is going to be on the radio forever.

- Christmas Story

- The Year without a Santa Claus

- Frosty the Snowman

We're taking bets that your underwear matters...

So I accidentally bought the wrong type of underwear. I am a boxer briefs person and I bought a pair of mid-rise briefs. Since I already opened them I thought that I would try them out. It was a very strange feeling. I didn't get any wedgies or anything, but things felt different. It was almost too snug and too much of my thigh is exposed. The underwear rubs a little differently.

Guys do not really have alot of different underwear options and there is no such thing as sexy guy underwear. I don't care what Marky Mark wore back in the day. The underwear was not what made him sexy to women. After years of being a boxers person I made the switch to boxer briefs. I am not going to be switching to mid-rise briefs. It is amazing that types of underwear really do matter. Ladies enjoy the link.

WTBT Volume 42 Series 2008...

* the Lakers are not as good that their undefeated record.
* it surprises you the amount of people who love Jon and Kate Plus 8.
* you are looking forward for the college basketball season to finally start.
* Jim Calhoun and the UCONN Huskies will win their 3rd national championship in April.
* you should listen to musical artists like Keb' Mo'.
* it is smart to hide your pot before you call the police.
* if someone old was reading this they might hide their cooking pots before they called the police.
* the Boston Red Sox will make a big splash before Christmas.
* the $700 billion bailout might actually help real people.
* sometimes the stupidest arguments could be ended if people actually listened to each other.

We're taking bets that I am proud to be an AMERICAN!!!

BARACK OBAMA IS THE 44th

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!

We're taking bets that I was an American and I voted today...

Well it has been four years since my last vote post. I am in a different state now and it was a very different experience, but weirdly kind of the same. I was in a library instead of being with the masons. There was a strategically placed bake sale for an elementary school right outside. (I only spent three dollars, but they didn't give me a receipt so I could claim it on my taxes.)

So I walked into the library after a creepy guy complimented my Red Sox hat as he tried to give me a pamphlet. I refused because he wasn't being green and because at this point if I don't know who I am going to vote for then I should have never showed up. The place was crawling with old lady helpers, but there was one neat addition. There was a high school kid telling everyone that they need to hide or throw away the pamphlets in the voting room. He was vigilant and no one could get past him. I gave my information to the nice lady who looked me up and had a little problem finding my name. It might be because she didn't expect to see a Latino last name from me and living in Hamden, but I digress.

Once I got my ballot that was actually on an 8 1/2" by 11" piece of paper with simple instructions to fill in one circle in each column. I was then sent to a voting booth. The booths are not really booths, but tables with a three sided cardboard on it to block my votes. There also was a sharpie pen. It was pretty exciting since I was told this is a new system. WoW! Shiny new cardboard.

I filled out my ballot and got in line to put it in the fun counter machine like thing. Four people had actually screwed up their ballot and voted for too many people. There was only 6 people in line including me. This was a very easy thing. Fill in one circle in each column. There was six columns so you should have had six circles filled in. Holy crap we have a lot of dumb people in this world. I put my ballot in and another younger adult gave me an "I voted today" sticker. (It is nice to know that young people can be a part of the process but only in the sticker giving and pamphlet preventing.)

I then bought some baked goods. Went to Starbucks and paid for my coffee because I didn't need free coffee as an incentive to vote. Okay that is not entirely true; I did get the small coffee too, but only because the guy handed it to me because of my sticker. This has been a historic election and I hope my guy wins.

We're taking bets that chipmunks are actually pretty cute...

It is official. I would like to have two or three chipmunks as pets.  While I know these are not domesticated animals and they don't sing like Alvin I think they would be fun to have around.  I have seen a number of them the last few weeks. Each of them were scurrying around looking for food to store in their huge cheeks.  They are pretty. How many things actually scurry and look cute doing it?  They are at the top of the rodent chain. I think that movies like Alvin and the Chipmunks have shown that they are just waiting to be an integral part of our human society. You can bet that they will be a benefit to everyone and not bring hate but love to us. I hope one day a chipmunk named Chip and I can be friends. Of course he will have a buddy named Dale and hilarity will ensue. Oh to dream a happy dream.

 

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Britney Spears is officially back. I just saw her video for Womanizer.  She is super hot. She needs to stick to dance music and maybe a ballad here or there. As long as her life is straightened out maybe she will do the great things she is capable of. I hope so.

We're taking bets that communication is key to being a functioning adult...

Our young people are in a lot of trouble. They do not know how to communicate with each other or anyone else for that matter. The biggest problem is they are not taught by their parents how to communicate. Their parents communicate for them all throughout their grade school years and even when they get to college. It has to stop.

We need to be a society of communicators. We cannot accept the fact that both of our candidates for president do not tell us exactly what they want to do. Technology has given us a new way to communicate, but is getting rid of face to face contact. We can solve all of our problems through communication, but no one knows how. There needs to be a national movement. I just hope we are not too late.

We're taking bets that he was more than just salad dressing...

Paul Newman died today. He was one of my all-time favorite actors. He had a charisma about him that was truly incredible. He married the love of his life and was with her over 50 years until he died. He did more for children and other humanitarian efforts than anyone will ever realize.  Here are the ten movies of his movies you should see: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Hustler, Cool Hand Luke, Nobody's Fool, Hud, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Sting, The Color of Money, Slap Shot, The Verdict. As for me I am going to miss his cool personality and his great voice.

We're taking bets that sometimes people go too far at football games...

This past Friday I went to the UCONN/Baylor Football game with my father and brother. My brother and I have season tickets and we are pretty familiar with the people around us. It was a very close game and the Huskies didn't play so well, but they won in the end.

During the very exciting fourth quarter there was a pretty sketchy call made by the referees against the Huskies. The gentleman(I use the term loosely) behind me was with a friend and his two children. I had not seen him before. Well he lost his mind and started screaming that the Referee was "on the take." Now that hasn't been said since the 1920's so I thought that was funny. The play was then reviewed by the replay judge. The referee came on the speakers and said the call was still not overturned. I guy behind me then said the most awful thing I have ever heard at a sporting event.

"I will find you after and kill you in front of your friends and family that love you."

I was absolutely blown away by this comment. I looked at the guy like he was crazy and my brother asked for clarification on what he said. Now my job is to confront 18 to 22 year olds on behavior and educate them on how to behave around others. When they use statements such as "gay" to mean "stupid" or the term retarded for anything I say something. If one of my students said something as awful as this I would go up one side of them and down the other. Of course this was at a public event and was it my business? So I sat and stewed for a little bit until Mr. Offensive said to his friend loudly, "I am speechless." I lost it and turned to him and said...

"Speechless? Obviously NOT because you just said the most awful thing that I have ever heard a human being say at a sporting event. I hope these are not your children because that was disgusting. Who in their right mind says that? That was awful."

I turned around to watch the next play, but I realized I wasn't done. I then said...

"I cannot believe you actually said that." He then said, "I think we get your point." Which I then replied to him, "I don't think so because most human beings would have apologized to me and the people around you. You haven't even said you are sorry for the horrible thing you said. You are not even fit to be called a human being."

I might have gone a little overboard, but I felt it needed to be said. I still can't believe I heard another person say that and it wasn't on the TV show 24.  What do you all think?

WTBT Volume 38 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* the most shocking news of the week is Clay Aiken is gay.
* people should just try and get along.

* my brother looks a little like him with his hair spiked up.
* the retirement of Johnny Pesky's number is the best thing the Red Sox will do all year.

* sometimes stupidity and irony go to new levels of holy crap.
* if you say something inappropriate I am probably going to call you on it.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

In honor of the last game ever at Yankee Stadium I salute her.  It was a great place to watch a game and even though I am a diehard Red Sox fan I am going to miss it. I was even at the 4th last game ever. Good bye Yankee Stadium you will be missed.

WTBT Volume 37 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Kadee Strickland of Private Practice and Tyler Perry's The Family that Preys is quite a hottie. She hasn't had a stellar career, but I think that she is starting to gain a little bit of momentum. To be thought highly enough to cast by Tyler Perry is quite a thing.  She also has a wonderful smile. :)

WTBT Volume 36 Series 2008...

We're taking bets some weeks you just encounter people with their bad idea jeans on...

It has been a long and trying week. I feel like I keep running into idiots all over the place. It reminds me of this old SNL commercial.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

The MTV Video Awards were tonight and they are looking good for 25 years old. The Award does not look as golden as Oscar and doesn't quite have the sophistication of the Emmy, but he does alright for himself. Happy 25th Birthday Moon Man!!!

We're taking bets that you can't be a karate baby...

Just thought this was funny.

WTBT Volume 35 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* the Toronto Subway is smellier than the one in New York.

* you are not sure if smellier is really a word.

* Dustin Pedroia should be the AL MVP.

* everybody dies in the end; just the once.

* maybe this guy was a liar liar and he deserved what he got.

* the Thunder is a weird name for the OKC basketball team.

* Rudy Guliani doesn't know what the hell he is talking about.

* the new 90210 was not too bad, but it wasn't great either.

* you can't lose your breasts when you are trying to steal something from someone.

* the trailer for Zach and Miri Make a Porno really excites me.

* the above statement sounds a little creepy.

We're taking bets that I have a few observations...

Here are a couple of my observations from the long Labor Day Weekend. I hope you enjoy.

* People love to run from me. In my job one of my roles I have to enforce policy and many time that means getting someone to dump their beer because they are under 21.  This weekend I had a kid run from me. I am not supposed to chase him, but I radioed for help and we caught him. I know that I am a big guy, but I can run and someday I am going to chase someone down if for only to say that I did it.

* The Democratic National Convention was inspiring and kind of stupid all at the same time. It really was just blowhards talking to hear how important they are. Barack was excellent, but he did not make me feel confident that he will win the White House. I hope that the debates and the fact that Sarah Paulin was a bad choice for VP will help Obama/Biden win the White House.

* I am trying out Google's new web browser Chrome and I think it is cool so far. It is only the beta version so I think there is going to be a lot of improvements over the next few editions, but it works so far.

* Project Greg has started. More details to come. Hopefully it will be successful!!!

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Natalie Morales is awesome in ABC Family's The Middleman. It is a quirky show and she is girl next door/bookworm cute. She pulls off the glasses in the show and has a fun smile. I hope this show stays on for a while because it is great.

WTBT Volume 34 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...


* Barack Obama really gave an inspiring speech last night.
* the Hungarians really can give a funeral.
* it's weird that athletes are still put on the Wheaties box because I don't know one person that eats Wheaties.
* John McCain probably angered a lot of old Republicans by choosing a woman for VP.
* Gustav is pretty scary for New Orleans and you hope the levees hold.
* you have to love and hate this idiot.
* seeing a friend avoid a car accident that wouldn't have been her fault by doing some awesome driving is pretty cool.
* you cannot believe that Michael Jackson is 50 years old today.
* I am very excited about College Football starting. GO HUSKIES!!!
* a telemarketer's revenge seems kind of dumb for they to do because that is the job.

We're taking bets that I just don't get Republicans...

Federally indicted Alaskan Senator Ted Stevens just won the Republican primary for his Senate Seat. Now I understand that an indictment does not mean that he is guilty, but just being indicted means something is wrong with you. Can't the Republicans in Alaska find someone else to stand behind. It makes no sense to me. Everyone deserves the right to be proven guilty or innocent, but if this guy is guilty and wins the election what happens next. Only the Republicans could muck this up.

WTBT Volume 33 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* fall and hit your head was not number 102.
* Ted Kennedy might not be your favorite Kennedy, but he is a great speaker.
* you are a little bit excited about college football starting Thursday.
* the bishops wanted nun of this controversy.
* it is weird when who is going to be on Dancing with the Stars is bigger news that the Democratic National Convention.
* the Red Sox visiting the Bronx will not be quite the same after this year.
* you are excited about a fourth judge on American Idol that can put Simon and Paula in their places.
* sometimes pig jokes just get you in trouble.
* stories like this make me wonder how Ohio State can be considered such a great University.
* I love that their grandmother was defending their actions a little bit.
* you are really looking for your TV shows to start again.

We're taking bets that I have observed and thought...

Here are a few of my observations over the last few days.

* It seems to me that the more money you have the more you believe that rules and regulations do not apply to you. The University I work at has a lot of students whose parents have made a lot of money. Their expectations of what is allowed and what is not is very skewed. No you cannot park any where you want. Blocking a Fire Road is not allowed. Since you are not handicapped you cannot park in that handicap space. It really is ridiculous and this is just the parents. We wonder why rich people are considered snobs and their kids are brats. It is the parents fault.

* We will never see an Olympics quite like Beijing 2008. Michael Phelps and 8 gold medals, Bolt breaking two world records and not looking like he was even tired, the US basketball dream teams, US track failures too numerous to mention, Japan beating the US in softball and China putting on the most impressive opening ever. It was quite an Olympics and if you didn't watch anything I am sorry you missed it.

* Stupidity comes in many sizes and places. In my own backyard of New Haven stupidity has taken on a new level. The Youth Baseball League of New Haven has banned a 9 year old from pitching because he is too good. He throws 40 mph and is accurate. Some of the parents complained that their children were scared. When I faced Gary Burnham (who currently plays minor league baseball) I was scared everytime I faced him, but I didn't complain. The kid was a freak of nature with a rocket arm. How can you do this to a 9 yr. old kid? I am glad his parents are meeting with a lawyer and I hope they win because to be the best you have to play the best. Every kid not getting to face Jericho Scott is being robbed of his chance to make contact and get a hit. Adversity and greatness should never stop us from trying and these bozos have ruined the great sport of children's baseball.

WTBT Hottie of the Week...

Now that the Olympics are over I would like to share my favorite Olympian. Stephanie Rice of Australia. She can swim as well as any woman and is hot like you can't believe. She even looks good with a swim cap on. Makes me want to go Down Under.

WTBT Volume 32 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* some people have no patience.
* Japan beating US softball was bigger than the Red Sox beating the Yankees in '04.
* maybe it is not, but it is close.
* government does hurt the little people and their businesses.
* that article makes me ashamed to share a first name with this imbecile, but thank God he is a three "G" freak.
* NFLPA lost a great man in Gene Upshaw.
* the creepy letters being sent to McCain's campaign are weird.
* the US track relay teams should invest in some stickum for their hands.
* you should never mess with the public library.
* House Bunny does not even look a little bit funny, but Katherine McPhee looks hot.

WTBT Volume 31 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* whining really does accomplish anything good.
* the Olympics have ruined any type of sleep I may have wanted the last few weeks.
* it stinks that the new Harry Potter movie is now 9 months away.
* Shawn Johnson was finally tall enough on the medal stand for the Americans.
* sometimes you do not mess with a cow and her apples.
* Michael Phelps is awesome and will probably never be matched in our lifetime.
* Tropic Thunder was an incredibly funny, but very offensive movie.
* I appreciate helping Homeless Children, but summer camp really doesn't seem like it would do the trick.
* when entitlement manifests itself in crazy talk someone needs to step up and say something.
* I work with some of the best colleagues a person could ever ask for.
* you have to respect Christina Applegate's courage about being so open regarding her cancer.
* I am fully supportive of this debate about alcohol and the drinking age.
* the Patriots could be in trouble without Tom Brady.
* McCain and Obama better pick their VP candidates soon.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Even though Dara Torres did not win individual gold she definitely deserves to be recognized as a Hottie. Atg 41 she might be the most impressive athlete at the Olympics not named Michael Phelps. She has a great smile and an awesome attitude and I just wish I am 1/3 as fit as she is when I am her age.

We're taking bets that Brett Rameriz... I mean Manny Favre are stupid...

Well the Red Sox have been without Manny Ramirez for 5 days and it seems like Red Sox Nation has survived. Although he provided great protection for David Ortiz in the line-up he had become the Brett Favre of baseball. Doing whatever he wants on his timeline and not the organizations. What does it mean to be a team player anymore? The New England Patriots have shown that if you want to win you have to be willing to sacrifice individual accolades for team success.

Brett Favre has turned ESPN into CNN looking for a lost white girl in the Caribbean. It is the only think they are talking about and the Olympics are in 3 days. He keeps saying he doesn't want to be a distraction, but he is a huge one. I don't think he really wants to play for the Packers anymore and is probably getting his way. Another Star Player becoming bigger than his team and the game. I love sports and cannot imagine my life without them, but these guys are ruining it for everyone. I hope a new era of sports will come in when athletes and sports teams can be role models for the children of the world.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Hottie EVE from Pixar's Wall-E. She is sleek and powerful. Of course you need some spare parts if you want to crack that shell. EVE does have a great giggle that you need to have in a Hottie. Being that she's the best movie of the summer so far I think she have a great future. Oops she already is in the future.

WTBT Volume 30 Series 2008...

We're taking bets that...

* the song should go Save Some Gas, Ride a Horse.
* Spain will beat Germany and finally win an international tournament on Sunday in Euro2008.
* Wall-E is the must see movie of the weekend, but Wanted can't be too far behind.
* no one really cares about Wimbledon like they used to in the 70's and 80's.
* sagging pants is really what police chiefs should be worried about when you have a buttocks issue.
* you can't believe the amount of times the journalist used the word buttocks in that article.
* putting up with snow in New England is not so bad when you look at all of the disasters in the rest of the United States.
* I don't think the Taser method of conception is going to be successful.
* ESPN reporter Doris Burke sounds like the steroid Girl Scout from Dodgeball.
* insomnia sucks sometimes especially when you have a bunch of work to do in the morning.
* not many people would have the balls to try this prank.
* Last Comic Standing is actually very funny this year and you should check it out.
* even when you win sometimes you lose.

We're taking bets that funny doesn't allow for bad things to be okay...

I may be adding to the problem, but this was on Boston.com today as it's featured local video. It is very funny, but promotes many negative things such as underage drinking and degrading women. Am I wrong to think this is offensive? What do you think?

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Hottie Liv Tyler has had quite a few months. She is Hulk's love interest and get's terrorized by Strangers in the woods. She is recently separated from her husband who just couldn't handle her fame. Guys really got to buck up and get over themselves when women achieve more success. Here are a few of the reasons why she is a hottie.

* gas and food prices will keep us in a recession for the next 12 months.
* yeah I said it and I will be proved right by the experts. Mark my words.

We're taking bets that I have a thing to say about Text Messaging...

Open Letter to the Text Messagers of the World,

I understand that you have a need to be in constant communication with your BFFs, family, TV shows, sports teams, and random people you don't know but might have something important to say. You have become part of the rudest society we have ever had. You text message just about anywhere you want to. I half expect to go to a wedding in the next year and see the best man texting throughout the ceremony.

I recently went to a conference and watched people text message during keynote speakers, presentations, meals, conversations with friends, conversations with potential bosses and colleagues and no one seemed to think it was rude but me. WTF? How have we become such awful people who really don't communicate with each other? Being present is no longer important to anyone. We are always looking for something better. What we are doing in the present time is not good enough.

I beg you to stop doing this around me and others who want to spend quality time with you. Text when you are alone and can't connect with people at that moment. Better yet call them and talk. Wait better yet go find them and talk. Wait actually introduce yourself to new people and make new friends. Have actual conversations that mean something using real words and not abbreviations. Please rescue our communication challenged society. Thank you.

I apologize to all of my loyal readers for not being the best blogger in the last few months. For some reason I feel that I have lost my creativity. It is slowly coming back and later today I will have a real WTBT blog.

We're taking bets that Sexy Can I...

So I know that this song probably degrades strippers and other women somehow, but I cannot stop singing it. Plus the girl that comes out of the pool at the end of the video is gorgeous. I hope you all enjoy.
