I’m almost ashamed for using this low-brow comedy as the basis of this week’s Friday Flicks post, but Balls of Fury is the biggest release of the week. What’s a brother to do?
As for the film, don’t go see it. Please! Just because Christopher Walken stars in it, that doesn’t mean anything. That guy is a role whore. His acting addiction rivals Courtney Love’s drug habit — he’ll take any part in any film to stay working. If you need more convincing, Rotten Tomatoes has the film rated as a 27% on its “Critics Tomatometer”. For all of you R.T. [...]

It’s official! Kurt Angle and his new tag team partner Sting will defend the TNA tag team straps against Team Pacman — Pacman Jones and Ron “The Truth Killings — at the September 9 No Surrender PPV! Here’s a clip from tonight’s iMPACT! show…

I have no idea how Pacman can wrestle in a match of this magnitude with his court-ordered no-contact stipulation, but TNA has done an outstanding job of getting creative with The Namesake so far. The other big news is that Pacman will be back fo’ mo’ after the PPV! The new trailer for the October 14 Bound [...]

Some jackoff MySpace perv is cyberstalking Adam Archuleta’s girlfriend and former Playboy playmate Jennifer Walcott. Seeing her jugs, I almost couldn’t blame him until I read about threats of physical violence. What [...]

OK, so I’ve had a thing for Bridget Moynahan for some time. I like tall girls, I like brunettes, I like actresses (broads are usually crazy, and, I’m not gonna lie, I kinda dig that). Bridget is 5-foot-9, definitely brunette and close enough to being an actress (I didn’t say they had to be Faye Dunaway). Then she ruined it all by getting knocked up by Tom Brady. Well, now that Mr. Brady is kickin’ with Gisele, Miss Moynahan is back on the market. Pretty soon she’ll be smoking hot again following the birth of her son, and I have [...]

Hey, Peter King, is Larry Johnson really only the 34th best player in the NFL? If Antoine Winfield and Kerry Rhodes are really better than L.J., I’ll pg out on my own feces. Great real, Kingster. – Peter King/SI.com

19:23:07 – I’m checking in a little bit earlier, just to make sure I have both the ESPN draft application and Wordpress running smoothly beforehand. Anyway, welcome. This live blog of my fantasy football draft should be exciting, at least for me. I can’t remember a time when I was looking at three or four different players (Alexander, Addai, Maroney and Parker) in the first round. Usually I know who I am picking, or pick one of two guys. Sit tight, we’ll be underway shortly.
19:52:23 – Well, it’s already a shit talking free-for-all. My dad and I are talking [...]

(We were experiencing some server issues yesterday that we had to deal with due to a recent spike in network-wide traffic. We have figured everything out and The Monday Bangover will definitely be back next week.)
My fantasy football draft is merely hours away (don’t forget — I’ll be live blogging the event at 8 PM C/9 PM E), and even though I’ve done a ton of research I’m starting to panic.
I pick seventh this year, after riding Steven Jackson (who I picked fifth) into the playoffs last year despite Chad Johnson and Eli Manning disappearing for much of the season. [...]

I know that I’m a little more perverse than most, but this is just a ridiculous headline.
