Is Lee Fowler on his Way Out?

Could next week be the week that State fans have been waiting for for ten years now? Earlier this morning, Taylor Zarzour talked about this article from the Triangle Business Journal.


Get a Book on Your iPhone!

This morning we talked to former tour manager for the Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead. His book is called You Can't Always Get What You Want.

It's available in paperback and as an iPhone app and it's filled with rare stories about Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Jerry Garcia among others. The iPhone app features videos and commentary related to some of the stories. If you want it, click here.

You Don't Get to Have Sex And You Don't Look Like Tiger Woods

The guy in the front of the line has been selected to play Tiger Woods in an upcoming porno starring real life Tiger mistress Joslyn James.

Yes, Joslyn is still claiming to be the victim here while she's profiting from her affair with Tiger. Here's the worst part. This guy doesn't even get to have sex in the movie!

That's right! The production company wanted to find an average Joe to play Tiger. He would get the thrill of a lifetime by being in a porno - except he does not get to have any sex.

Oh, and he doesn't look like Tiger.

Not even a little bit.

The Luther Down


There it is in all it's glory - the Luther Down!

One KFC Double Down in between two halves of a Krispy Kreme donut. Want to make your own? It clocks in at just a shade over 900 calories. Click here for directions.

Listeners Can Make Us Laugh!

Today we salute Brady Nemeth, who sent us this awesome video from the You Tubes.



Unemployment can be hell. Please kids, remember to keep Carlton and Phil in your prayers.

This Man is an Island

Not every Oscar winner can keep that momentum going their entire career.

Some are forced to do bad movies.

Some watch their star fade and realize they have to follow in someone else's shadow.

Some even get too drunk at a bar, grab the microphone and proceed to make patriotic, yet idiotic toasts.



Someone please show Cuba the money...or at least a place he can get a meal and a nice warm bed for the night. This is getting sad.

Forget the MVP's and the 4 NBA Titles!

This is the greatest thing Shaq has ever done!



Ladies and Gentlemen, this is what millionaires do with their time when their wife leaves them and takes the kids.

How does he not know the lyrics to "Jessie's Girl?" I mean, it is a terrible song, but doesn't everyone know the lyrics to that song? Also, is the clean-shaven puppet supposed to be an older version of Shaquille O'Neal? And who is controlling the puppets - Penny Hardaway?

Introducing the Morning Show Puppy

We found this creepy thing in the studio, while we were cleaning one day.


It's not real, but he keeps the Morning Show-rilla company.

Separated at Birth?

Here's a photo of Charlie Sheen. It seems the Two and a Half Men star recently shaved his head. I am going to assume this was after a week long bender of coke, whores and whiskey.


Nothing wrong with the freshly shorn look, right? In fact, he looks just like someone else we know.


Foster!

The Ice T Eagle

We told you about the epic twitter war raging between folk rocker Aimee Mann and "Original Gangta" Ice-T on the show this morning. Check out the whole feud here. We also told you that Ice-T ended the war of words by tweeting the greatest picture of all time.

Want to see it?


Admiral Ackbar

In honor of today's Star Wars Spelling Bee, I thought I would share one of my favorite pieces of Star Wars related comedy on the internet.

Our Tiger Video

This is our take on the new Tiger Woods commercial. Yes, there is a grey stripe across the bottom. No we don't know how to get rid of it. Enjoy the smushed video.

Fun with the Tiger Woods Commercial

By now we've all seen the new Tiger Woods Nike ad.



Our friends and deadspin.com scoured the internet to find the best parodies of the commercial. I wish we could post all of the videos here, but the bosses would freak out! So instead here is a link.

Salt's favorite is parody number 3. I am a fan of number 6.

The Best Play You Probably Didn't See



While a lot of you were at work, White Sox ace Mark Buehrle did something amazing!

Own A Piece of History

And support a great cause!

The folks at Nicko Sports are releasing limited edition commemorative basketballs to celebrate Duke's National Championship. All of the proceeds go to the Duke Durham Neighborhood Partnership.

Call 1-800-345-2868 to get yours or click here!


The Final Standings

Here are the final stadings of our "Friends of the Show" bracket pool.

CHAMPION: DEMETRI THE GREEK - 67 POINTS
2. TAYLOR ZARZOUR - 58 POINTS
3. SALT - 56 POINTS
3. BARACK OBAMA - 56 POINTS
5. MR. SKIN - 52 POINTS
6. BT - 51 POINTS
7. ROBIN FOX - 50 POINTS
8. BOMANI JONES - 46 POINTS
9. AUSTIN HILL - 30 POINTS

For the record, nobody picked Duke to win it all and only Taylor even picked them to be in the final game. It doesn't matter. I was so far ahead after the Elite 8 that this thing was decided last week. And what did I win? Pride, my friends. Pride.

Duke Wins!

...and this Butler cheerleader went wild!

Why? We don't know, but it is nice to know that there was at least one person in Indianapolis that was routing for Duke.

Bomani Jones Doesn't Put Up With Canadian Tomfoolery

As many of you know, our buddy Bomani Jones co-hosted the studio show for the NCAA Tournament on the Canadian television network The Score.

Check out this clip.

Bomani was right to refuse to dance. Is that what passes for basketball coverage in Canada? No wonder we make fun of them.

No One Likes Being Dunked Upon...

And even fewer people like getting kicked in the balls.

Remember Tony Skinn? Probably not. He was part of that George Mason team that shocked the world by beating Carolina and UConn (among others) to make it to the Final Four in 2006.

Well now Tony is playing ball in Europe. Here is a video of a big time dunk he threw down earlier this season.



There's a lot going on here. First, notice that he kicks the defender square in the sack. Then, to add insult to injury he hangs on the rim and roars like Godzilla. In a brief moment of karmic justice/hilarity you will notice that Tony does fall trying to stick the dismount. Does that stop him? No! He's right back up and smack talking as he runs down the court a split second later.

Tony, you are a douche bag, but at least you are a douche bag with some style. As for the nameless power forward that may never have kids, that is some tough luck. Not only did your nuts get cracked, but you will forever be known as that European dunk victim.
