Currently on ESPN Classic: 1985 PBA Greater Buffalo Open

Do you ever flip to a tv station and realize that you have to be, literally, the only person in America watching what you are watching? That happened today, as I flipped to ESPN Classic and saw that they were showing a bowling match from 1985 between Steve Martin (no, not that one) and Gary Skidmore. Skidmore is quite the family man, and is a Pittsburg Steelers fan. He leads Martin by 11 pins after 4 frames. I’ll keep you updated.
UPDATE: Skidmore held off a pesky Martin and took home the huge trophy (you should have seen this thing!), 256-253. Then his wife Sherry came down from the stands wearing the most hideous pastel dress you have ever seen and gave his moustached lips a big ol’ smacker.

More Rocky VI stuff

The “bad guy” in the upcoming Rocky movie will be named Mason “The Line” Dixon. Apollo Creed? Great name. Clubber Lang? Not bad. Mason “The Line” Dixon? Huh? Was the name International “The Date” Line already taken? If they were looking for names of events of the 1750’s, did they consider the name Frenchie “And Indian” Warr? Did Stallone want to pay tribute to his favorite 18th century surveyors? If you want to learn more about the Mason-Dixon line, click here. Actually, don’t. Let’s not kid ourselves. Nobody cares about the Mason Dixon Line. Also, it’s believed that producers are negotiating with boxer Antonio Tarver to play Dixon. If there’s one thing that we learned from Rocky V, it’s that boxers automatically make great actors. Tommy Morrison’s acclaimed film career (2 Oscars, multiple leading man roles) got it’s start in Rocky V.

Johnny’s handlers have announced that he is listed as “doubtful” to rap at tonight’s show. “Johnny suffered a bruised larynx while rapping at the RPS tourney on Saturday, and we feel at this time, it would be folly to push it, push it good,” said his physician, Dr. Bartleby McDowell. “He needs to give the old rap voice a rest.”
