Why is he on my TV?


So, I don't know if it's possible to sell out before you've actually made it, but Brady Quinn has managed to do it. He's not a starter, people. I'm tired of seeing his commercials. Please, someone make him go away. And please make him stop calling himself "The Mighty Quinn."

Come on. Give some energy drink contract to a guy that can manage to win a bowl game and wasn't on a completely overrated team.

EDIT: As it turns out, Brady Quinn was just announced as a starter. Let's see how this goes.

John Mellencamp shows ABC around B-ton.

It's good to see 'The Coog' in his element. This little video got caught on my Tivo because it's set to record everything with "Indiana" in the title.

Those who've spent time in Bloomington should recognize a couple landmarks. That's actually the Steak 'n Shake where I sat next to Mellencamp. Man, what a small town.

Destroyed in Seconds


I've got to say, I love the new show "Destroyed in Seconds" on the Discovery Channel.

Here's the premise. Get a former NFL player/commentator to give background information while videos of things being crushed and exploded play over and over again.

I saw a tank running over 44 cars, thousands of pounds of explosives blow up a hill, a racecar burst into flames, the Hindenburg, another blimp fall apart while taking off, and a helicopter. It's pretty amazing.

Thanks Discovery Channel. You've made my Tivo list.
