Goodbye Fontana

Dennis Farina is leaving Law & Order.

As much as it was impossible for anyone to take over for Jerry Orbach, I actually liked Farina's Det. Fontana. It'll be interesting to see who they bring in next season.

2,000 Little Pieces

In continuing the Pat Roberston hilarity, this picture was released to the press claiming PR can leg press 2,000 LBS.

This is amazing considering that "...[the] leg-press record for football players at Florida State University is 665 pounds less."

Enjoy.

Lacrosstitutes...

...is the term used at Duke describing the girls that hang out with the lacrosse team.

We have yet to chime in here about this story. It's white vs black, rich vs. poor, its Duke vs. the community, etc.

Newsweek had a pretty solid article on the subject. One passage that I found to be great was:

"Strutting lacrosse players are a distinctive and familiar breed on elite campuses along the Eastern Seaboard. Because the game until recently was played mostly at prep schools and in upper-middle-class communities on New York's Long Island and outside Baltimore, the players tend to be at once macho and entitled, a sometimes unfortunate combination. They can often be seen driving in SUVs with LAX decals, their dirty-white college ball caps turned around, a pinch of Skoal in their mouths."

Lets be honest, lacrosse players are, generally speaking, huge assholes. From high school through college, these guys have almost always fit there own stereotype of "being huge pricks." A whole team of them, living on campus I cant even imagine the magnitude of assholedness...Why are they such jerkoffs? Why all the attitude? Perhaps, as a hero of mine once stated so eloquently, they finally realized that they're standing in the middle of a field holding butterfly catchers.

Artie Bucc-Uh-O

Artie B...you're better than that!

Sometimes, When You Tell A Lie For So Long...

I thought last nights episode was pretty solid. It moved the story line forward and it set up a lot more things for the rest of the season. I will admit that I am still scarred from seeing the Vito- Brokeback moment from bike ride to make out session...

Additionally, does anyone think that Tony will bring AJ into the biz at some point? I know it's a long shot, but I guess you never know.

I'll take an order of Johnny Cakes...tall.
