Woah baby!

Ok, so I should probably retitle this post if only because it sounds like something that might come out of Dick Vitale's mouth and Lord knows that I can't stand Dick Vitale. I'd say that applies to most people but eh, whatever. I think I'm a little too sensitive to announcers. It's getting to the point that I can't listen to what they have to say any more. I don't know, maybe like I just watch too much football...nah. I do know that John Madden doesn't really bother me like he should (because he's awful). I really don't have much of a problem with him mostly because I don't really listen to what he's saying and I love the idea of a turducken. You can't go wrong with a made-up meat combination. Well, I take that back. You can, but not when Madden's involved. I enjoyed his little rant tonight about the chef who was weighing the meat before he cooked it. I believe the quote was "I won't eat anything if you have to weigh it before it's been cooked." Interesting...I wonder if he eats lunch meat. Or a turkey of any poundage. These are the type of things I'd want to know. This is where Al Michaels needs to lead their next conversation. I'm sure I would have asked Madden a couple of questions about that statement, mostly the idea of the turkey being weighed before it's sold.

Whilst I typed this waste of a rant, the Shawshank Redemption soundtrack just came on and I'm completely hooked. I know BT already covered this topic, but I love that movie. It's ridiculous how often I've seen it and yet I can never turn away from it. I don't know why, but I'll even watch it on TBS and I won't ever think to go grab my copy of it and skip the commercials. And despite it's tremendous length, I always want to know what else happened to Red and Andy. When I make my movie (and no, it won't be like Matt's crazy ultimate frisbee movie with Vin Diesel), I'm definently putting a reference/background shot of a possible Red/Andy hotel. It's going to happen. And maybe you'll be there to witness it...
