After watching this movie over and over again, I believe the status of Brad Lidge… wait… I mean Brad Lidge’s ERA will continue to skyrocket towards the stars!

Props to Ray Dussault over at the Global New York Mets Fan Group on Facebook for the image.

Liked the movie ‘300’? Liked the line, ‘This is Sparta!’? Enjoy the clip!





The Passion in 5 Seconds

1 04 2008

Yes! Finally, there’s a new ‘5 Second Movie’ that I can thoroughly enjoy! To prepare you, I’ve never been a big fan of Mel Gibson (for some silly reason they call ‘being antisemitic’), and I’ve always been a fan of religious humor. Hell, I knock on my own Jewish roots all the time. While this movie was supposed to be a serious film, and I never did see it (for the same reasons I’m not a fan of Mel Gibson), I can’t help but find this clip to be absolutely hilarious. So, I present to you, The Passion of the Christ in 5 seconds!

Ahhhhhhhh!

That’s right! It’s time for another Star Trek movie! This time, they go back before the story of the first movie and showcase some of Kirk’s earlier adventures with his crew. I can’t wait for this movie to come out! I feel like my inner-trekkie has been locked away for far too long. Here’s the super awesome teaser trailor for the movie. Enjoy!





Coolbeans!

The Philadelphia Phunk

7 10 2007

Choked, just like his team.

Last night, I celebrated my 3 year anniversary with my girlfriend. We went out for dinner at this awesome Thai restaurant called “Galanga”, in the west village. Then, we went to the east village to see “The Heartbreak Kid” which was hilarious! As you could imagine, there wasn’t a lot of time for me to check the scores of the playoff games that were going on. This morning, however, I raced out of bed to see if today would be a wonderful day, and it is! I awoke to the news of the Phillies being swept out of Colorado, after making a Cinderella-type run at the postseason and dashing the hopes of Mets fans just like myself.

While this doesn’t make up for the terrible collapse of the Mets, the 0-3 playoff run of the Phillies does make the healing process a bit easier. Then again, who’s going to beat the Rockies anyway? After all, they’ve won 17 of their last 18 games, including a sick 11 game winning streak that kept them alive throughout September. To further explain my point about the Rockies, lets bring in ESPN writer, Jim Caple.

“How good are the Rockies going? The Phillies intentionally walked Kaz Matsui in Game 3, a move that likely sent Mets fans screaming onto their fire escapes.”

Fire escapes? Maybe not. But screaming? If I had watched the game last night, I definitely would’ve screamed after a move like that. Kaz has been on an insane run of his own through the first 3 playoff games.

But that’s enough about that. The Phillies were swept out of the playoffs. The Yankees are one game away from going home. Life is good for us Mets fans at the moment… but only for the moment…

*cough*… Go Rockies… *cough*…





The Legend Returns

6 07 2007

It’s been a long time coming, but the wait is only about a year from being over. Sylvester Stallone has reunited with his classic role as John Rambo for a 4th installment of the *Man-Cult Classic* Rambo movies! Who doesn’t like watching John Rambo rip internal organs from the bodies of our enemies? Why wouldn’t you want to watch John Rambo blast our enemies to bloody bits? The amount of joy in my heart, or the grin on my face won’t be able to tell you how much this 4th installment means to me, and millions of Testosterone-Driven men out there! But, maybe my friend Zac can help you understand what this movie really means to us Rambo lovers:

“I’ve always wondered what the young Mary must have felt like when the angel delivered the good news that she was to be the mother of the savior of the world. Feelings of disbelief coupled with overwhelming joy must have been flowing throughout her very being…. I feel like im the angel declaring the good news to you…”

Amen, Zac… Amen!

This post is short, but oh so sweet! Now… how can I end such a perfect blog on a perfect “Zen-like” note?

Oh yeah, now that’s perfect!
