TochdownTube.com - all kinds of TD videos
Wednesday, September 05, 2007
I don't do much self-promotion on this site -- unless I think the you guys will get some benefit out of it.With that said, check out my newly created site TouchdownTube.com. As the name implies, the site is nothing but touchdown videos from peewee games to high school, college and pro games. It was even designed with the non-techie in mind as the videos are really easy to browse through and watch.
Just like UE, you can get updates of the newly posted videos by email or you can subscribe to the feed.
And if you don't mind, please forward the site on to anyone who likes football, sports, touchdowns or videos of football, sports and touchdowns (covers most of the male and even female population).
Let me know your feedback and I appreciate your support.

Man vs. Wild
Wednesday, June 06, 2007
When it comes to loyal reader JRandallB's taste in women, clothing and sports, I have very little faith in him. However, I listen when he speaks this highly of a TV show. Here are his thoughts:have u ever watched man vs wild on the discovery channel? i just started watching it and it legitimately might be the coolest show on tv...u have to check it out
Check it out
Fridays at 9 PM on the Discovery Channel (starting in June)
About Man vs. Wild
In each episode of Man vs. Wild Bear strands himself in popular wilderness destinations where tourists often find themselves lost or in danger. As he finds his way back to civilization, he demonstrates local survival techniques, including escaping quicksand in the Moab Desert, navigating dangerous jungle rivers in Costa Rica, crossing ravines in the Alps and surviving sharks off Hawaii.

Conan's horny manatee
Monday, April 30, 2007
Have you heard the story about Conan O'Brien's horny manatee?The background
On a December 4, 2006 taping of NBC's "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" show Conan, while doing a skit about ridiculous, alternative college sports mascots, blurted out the domain name www.hornymanatee.com. He said the comment about the name was ad-lib and unscripted.
NBC purchase the name for $159
NBC execs, realizing the negative consequences if the some innovative kid bought the site and posted X-rated content, decided to purchase the name (for $159) before the the show aired that night.
Hornymanatee.com
They could have left the site blank (just to prevent X-rated content on it), but in the name of comedy, they made a pretty hilarious site out out of it. The site features a manatee in costume in hilarious sexual positions - "manatee on manatee", "manaten", etc. They even sell t-shirts. Brilliant on NBC's part.

Apple's iPod Picano
Monday, February 05, 2007
Did I say SNL sucked recently? This bit featuring Steve Jobs and his newest line of iPods is pretty entertaining. I want that Invisa.

Michael Vick. Really!?!
Tuesday, January 30, 2007
SNL's been average since the big 3 left - Rock, Farley and Sandler with exceptions when Ferrell was there. The Al Gore skit was hilarious as well. Check out this Michael Vick skit. Really!?!

The Apprentice
Monday, January 08, 2007
Trump's been pretty annoying recently. I used to think his self-promoting way was comical, now it's just gotten obnoxious. This is a perfect example, in my opinion, of overexposure and quitting when you're on top. Trump's Apprentice show had top ratings for 1-2 seasons, but after that they dropped considerably. He should have stopped while his stock was high. People were loving him after those first couple seasons. He'd regained his position as a pop culture icon.
This season, which started last night has a bunch of new twists including L.A. replacing N.Y as the film's locale and his daughter Ivanka replacing Carolyn in the boardroom. Also, in a cheesy twist, the losing team has to sleep outside of a L.A. mansion in tents until they win a task. Despite its shortcomings, The Apprentice is a pretty good lesson in the hustle and creativity entrepreneurs undertake. Read the full write up of last night's episode on Inc. Follow the entire season here.
