Friday FAIL: The ESPY’s Edition

Well, it’s that time of the year when ESPN likes to pat themselves on the back and hand out meaningless awards!  If you missed out on all the back-patting fun, here’s what you missed:

  • Rob Riggle should never be allowed to host anything ever again.  In fact, it’s like ESPN was mocking us by picking the douchiest host they could think of.  Mission accomplished.
  • Apparently, ESPN thinks that Albert Pujols won the World Series for the Cardinals.  I guess they forgot about that guy named David Freese…or Allen Craig…or Lance Berkman…or (Do I really need to go on?)
  • We had 2 Tebow appearances in under 30 minutes.  And in my scientific research, the final Tebow count (mentions and screed appearances) fell just under eleventy-billion.  I may have rounded up.
  • The number of “Brittney Griner is a dude” jokes on Twitter was appalling.  Absolutely appalling.   » Continue reading “Friday FAIL: The ESPY’s Edition”

Well, They Did It

Yep, Kris Humphries joined the ranks of the Kardashians (and not the other way around).

I might have something more to say on the matter soon, but for now this sums it up. Thanks, kid.

Nothing Says Love Like Metal Detectors

Friends, you knew this was coming. We’ve already discussed the engagement, and now it’s time to bring out talk of the wedding plans.

I’m not going to go into the gory details of Kim Kardashian’s wedding to Nets’ forward Kris Humphries, mostly because the details are hard to come by, but there have been things that have leaked out that made me roll my eyes so hard I thought I’d have to drill a hole in the back of my head in order to continue seeing.

Guys. The wedding guests HAVE TO GO THROUGH METAL DETECTORS.

Ok, let’s be real for a second. I get that there are so wackadoodle people out there. I understand that with the type of “fame” the Kardashians have obtained, those wackadoodle people would try to get as close to that family as they could.

But this is a WEDDING.

This is where the couple’s (500) closest friends and family are supposed to show up. Metal detectors? How much faith is there in these “friends”?

Not only that, but the fact the guests  ”will have to hand over their cell phones and any other recording devices” leads me to believe the wedding is more about the money that could be made of the spectacle rather than being able to celebrate with those closest to the couple.

Granted, this is speculation on my part, but when there are reports saying “There will be more security devoted to making sure the footage and images from this wedding [are] safe [than] security making sure Kim and her guests are safe,” well, that my friends is a “wedding” that I absolutely cannot take seriously.

I hope Kris Humphries knows what he’s signing up for.
