The Roundup: Woody ‘Plaige,’ DeAndre Daniels Picks Connecticut & an Epic Fight Between Women at Wendy’s
Emmanuelle Chriqui … this writer thinks she knows why men cheat online … Blake Lively and Leo went to Disneyland … it’s a mutant rabbit! … Shaq’s girlfriend speaks … loving this Mexican Druglord’s tank … if you’re going to Netherlands anytime soon, and you smoke pot, read this … look, he’s running through a giant colon! … because we don’t have enough teacher-student links … Adele went on a rant about taxes …

Wild fight, purportedly at Wendy’s. One girl demands a friend take her shoe off; then she jumps off a table onto the big girl in blue. I’m not sure if that’s a guy or girl that jumps in late and clobbers the chick, but it’s certainly disturbing. [via Buzzfeed]
How’d this “toy” make it to a playground? Please do not send me videos of a kid getting injured on this thing, because you know that’s what happens next. [via Hot Clicks]

today has the feel of a 15-inning marathon. went to bed late, baby was making noise, lots of sports stories happening, and Grantland debuts.
i’d make a starbucks run for energy, but it’s 98 degrees. i hope i have energy to play basketball tonight.

June 8th, 2011 at 8:09 AM
Wow. I love Pitino, but I’m shocked he removed Kuric from scholarship. What a slap in the face.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:11 AM
i wish i knew more about hoops and breaking down game film so i can understand lebron’s defensive impact (terry scored pretty well) and how he facilitates and makes plays on offense (wade playing one-on-one).
it’s astounding how two of the best players in the world can’t execute simple offense down the stretch. pick ‘n’ roll? give-and-go? backdoor cut? simple drive ‘n’ dish? do they have any set plays?
June 8th, 2011 at 8:13 AM

June 8th, 2011 at 8:20 AM
Terry scored 8 in the 4th, though I’m not sure how much of it came directly against LeBron. i dont buy into the ‘making the offense easier’ argument in the 4th quarter… they couldn’t score (again).
why can’t they do what dallas did? LeBron at the high post, Miller/Chalmers in the corner, and everyone on the other side. lebron drives and scores.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:21 AM
awww, you poor guy.

I went out and got my very own sinus infection last night to celebrate Dirk’s legendary 4th quarter.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:26 AM
why can’t they do what dallas did? LeBron at the high post, Miller/Chalmers in the corner, and everyone on the other side. lebron drives and scores.
it would also be nice if the biggest, most talented player in the league had a post move. i hear it’s pretty easy to score from a couple of feet away. Not to beat a dead horse, but Dirk, Magic, MJ, Bird …. all players with perimeter/open court skils who can post up. for someone so gifted, lebron lacks a ton of skills.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:29 AM
Wild fight, purportedly at Wendy’s.
all bitches in that fight (even the white shirt at the end) except for the one guy trying to mediate before realizing he’s dealing with animals and says, “fuck it, i’m out.”

Not cool Netherlands. Not. Cool. You just got crossed off my list.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:34 AM

you know what’s the most fucked up? Lebron has a post game, and has been showing it off most of this playoff, even early in games in this series. Just a little, but some, mostly fadeaways, but still. Dallas didn’t double it, so they don’t use it.
I recant everything I said about him over the past few days. That dude disappeared completely. I also think he got caught clock watching on that Dirk drive to go up three. He literally never moves, and he’s the only potential frontside help.
Meantime Wade comes from a different time zone and almost blocks it.

This is all true and part of my frustration with him. Post-up with a fadeaway if you are such a dominant physical package? How about a drop-step and dunk? How about an up-and-under with a layup? And if they don’t double the post-up …. um … how about scoring on a single defender?
June 8th, 2011 at 8:39 AM
No, I think I WAS Mirielle Enos. Holder was my partner, and we were just killing time in an office for the whole dream, and I remember downloading NBA games. Got nowhere on the murder case, like in the episode.

I finally watched the most recent episode last night. I knew what to expect and how bad it was going to be and still I don’t think I’ve been that frustrated watching a television show in a long time.

I would have sex with her if she dressed up like JoDean Marquart.

that toy is no more dangerous then the tire swing. If an object can spin on a playground kids will find a way to make it deadly. I for one would like to try out the spinning mushroom top.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:43 AM
and we were just killing time in an office for the whole dream,
now that’s the best ending I’ve heard yet. The whole series was just Mirielle Enos napping while she waits for a collected DNA sample to come back positive for Billy Campbell, and arrest him, before she moves away to get married.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:44 AM
Yeah, seriously. Its like fat girls think they are thin and obese girls think they are just ‘overweight’. I definitely have the girl in my office who was probably thin in high school and doesnt want to admit that she’s a few sizes too big for her clothes now.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:45 AM

I would have sex with her in a condemned building where there were rats crawling about, I’m just going all Brad Clooney on everybody.

I cant believe that Holder is actually Swedish though. I want to hear his normal accent.

Wade played his ass off last night, just an incredible effort.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:48 AM
The Killing is known to put people to sleep.
I gave the show four episodes. I figured I’d watch the rest after the season was over if there were positive reviews. Haven’t seen that yet.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:48 AM
incredible.
June 8th, 2011 at 8:49 AM
I finally watched the most recent episode last night.
but seriously, there were 4 relevant minutes to the investigation in that episode, first two and last two, and we got a rehash on the conclusion we arleady knew (casino) and found another group of people who weren’t going to help a murder investigation and had something seemingly nefarious to hide.
And in the middle 40 minutes of fucking tripe. And 10 “phone call” acting scenes.

for all the people that are furious with Lebron, he should be the maddest. I’m not sure he could have done more in the game.

Anyone watch the show Picky Eaters? They had this very large woman on who has only eaten some variation of potatoes with cheese for her entire adult life, she eats nothing else. She actually said she thought she was healthy, just a little overweight. The therapist was like, ‘no, you’re morbidly obese and at risk for diabetes and heart disease’. I cracked up, because I’m a mean bitch like that.

There are a lot of these stories, but it’s a little shocking to see ‘elementary school’ teacher in that one. Not good. Especially since one of the charges includes sodomy.

it probably just means “deviant sexual behavior” in this instance (blowies). Although I guess it’s possible a horny school teacher wants to butt bang a high school boy. Not likely, but possible. Maybe that watched that shitshow with William F Macy on showtime.

June 8th, 2011 at 9:13 AM
the museums are awesome.
and the smoke is great, but one thing about people in Amsterdam, and most of Europe you have to remember is they love fucking techno music. or they did when I was there. so you walk into a coffee shop looking for a smoke and to relax and there are giant speakers blaring, and I mean obnoxiously loud, crappy techno music at all times.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:13 AM
When Amsterdam begins to go broke they’ll find ways around this law or they’ll choose to not enforce it. I would think that without the coffee shops Amsterdam doesn’t exist in today’s world as a major city. Are the ports bringing in enough Euros for them to thrive?

That started out like a 1980s/early 90s WWF match. They locked up in the vertical position and pushed off each other before drawing energy from the crowd.
It soon turned into a high-risk manuever from that chick with the flabby stomach and titties hanging out, as she executed the flying two-handed anvil drop.
Then the referee lost control and the rest of the heel stable jumped the face, much to the crowd’s chagrin.

Good job on your weight loss guys. It’s hard sitting at a desk every day. I’ve started to go get some deli lunch meat on Monday and eat a turkey sandwich and a few chips each day for lunch. That seems to help. Those gut bomb lunches are a killer.

Summer weekends are the worst for me, as I get older.
It’s not just the grilling….it’s the beer intake.
I took running up last summer to help combat the attendant weight gain and I HATE to run. So, I had to weigh my love of summer eating/drinking with my hatred of running….it’s working out well so far.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:17 AM
but now its sea salt…thats better for me right.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:17 AM
Close. Here goes: Fast food at every meal. And eat until you almost vomit. Make sure that the last fast food meal of the day is after 11:00pm. And soda. Lots of regular soda. DO NOT exercise in any way, shape, or form. Viola! The weight will begin piling on in no time. Probably about a pound per day, easy.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:17 AM
just do what i do…get a golf cart and ride around the neighborhood with a tampon sized joint in a safari hat. sure you’ll still be fat, but you won’t really care.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:18 AM
Have you been? Because if you’ve been you would know that tourist trap or not, they are just about the most fantastic thing in the world. No small talk with the dealer, no awkward silence when all you want if your bud. Just a perfectly jovial exchange and then you get to sit down in a nice cafe and enjoy. If all tourist traps were like that of Amsterdam coffee shops the term “tourist trap” would have a new meaning.

i guess that is a good point…
and ive never been to amsterdam…want to go really bad, but that’s more as a stoner haj than anything. id probably eat shrooms the whole time instead of smoking tho…just cuz i smoke enough to know that the minute that cloud enters my lungs, moving for non-golf/eating reasons is pretty much out of the question…hence the “trap.”
June 8th, 2011 at 9:21 AM
Out of curiosity….how many of you took up exercising before the weight gain and how many took it up after you started gaining weight to try and slow it down/burn it off?
June 8th, 2011 at 9:21 AM
I’ve picked up soccer and tennis again because I am in such terrible shape. I wish I could run like other people. I really do. But I fucking hate running. I think it might be the worst thing in the world. I need a sport to keep me engaged.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:22 AM

Me too. I lost my appetite about a month ago (long story) and pretty much didn’t eat anything for 3 days and lost 8 pounds. It’s hard for me to gain weight while staying in shape.

When junk food is all you eat, 5-6k calories isn’t hard. Especially when you add gloriously large amounts of sugar filled soda.

true story…it’s not so much the food that gets you, but two 32 oz. cokes is like 750 calories or soemthing.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:25 AM
What are these?
Pretty much what they sound like… a container filled with glue that the critters walk into because they’re attracted to the scent. They get stuck in the glue and die a slow death. My parents had a bad experience with those… put them in the garage… bird got into one, stuck its beak in it… Dad goes out there and the thing is struggling/still alive. Was not pretty. I won’t use them because of this reason alone.

You don’t have to run much distance to shed some lbs. Run short wind sprints – like 30-40 yards – and you’ll shed the fat. It’s like a 20-minute workout.

Nice job you guys. Sadly I am finding that as I am getting older, it is harder to lose as easily as I used to.
Great job on the weight loss, folks. It is hard. I am old, but just started CrossFit and that shite is mind-blowing. Hardest 1-hour workouts of my life, but they pay huge dividends. And I drink TONS of beer.

Fruit is awesome. Especially in the summer.
Last week, there was a slug in my bedroom. I must have brought it in on my shoe. I scooped him up and took him outside. My co-worker said I should have just got the salt. I didn’t have the heart to do that.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:26 AM
I wish I was only terrified by roaches. All bugs freak me out. I had a panic attack once because there was a wasp in my apartment and I thought it would sting me in my sleep. I had to kill some centipede looking thing in my bedroom today (BF leaves for work before 5am) and about had a heart attack.

Ive been an on/off exerciser for years.. as it turns out I have more motivation to actually run most days now because I am already signed up and paid for a 5k every month so I keep in shape so as to not be embarassed. Also its amazing what just running will do for your legs/butt.

A couple of things: Shrooms have been banned (which was a sad day in the life of HuskerDawg…because they’re amazing over there). Also, the city is so cool, the canals are so pretty and the red light district is so much fun to wander around that you’ll be shocked at how much you walk around. I’ve been 4 times and the only museum I’ve been to was the wax museum. I wish I would have gone to others, but we were always doing something that we didn’t want to stop. We played soccer with some locals outside of the Van Gogh museum. We played basketball for a couple of hours as well. Just walking around the town is a blast. It’s especially fun when you’re high and have no clue where you’re going. The road names are hilariously long, which makes remembering where the hell you are almost impossible. It’s also fun trying to dodge the armada of bicycles the city employs.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:27 AM
about anytime it rains slugs emerge from under my deck. I keep the salt handy at all times. those things are so gross. watching them curl up under the salt is quite awesome really.

I’m hoping this happens. I’ve started a running program to run a 5K in the Fall.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:29 AM
I say all that with th edisclaimer that I don’t eat that way currently. If I had nmy druthers I would, and have for periods of my life, but now in my mid-forties I can’t. Not if I want to live to see my kids graduate HS. I lost 30 lbs over the past 2 years mostly with running. It really has to be a lifestyle change if it is to last.
It’s cliche, but exercise, portion control, and eating healthier are really all it takes.

I lifted weights on and off and did stuff like elliptical cross trainers. I’ve always yo-yo’d in weight, with a variance of about 10 or 15 lbs. I really wanted to stop that.
I also lost a ton of weight after my divorce (from 255 to 220), so as a way to keep it off, I took up running.

you guys know how my wife is deathly allergic to wasps, right? Well we put up fake wasp nests, which deter wasps from coming around. However, due to a recent devastating rainstorm, a whole bunch of wasp nests out in the world were destroyed, so all of our fake wasp nests get checked out by disenfranchised queen wasps all day long.
It’s hard to get my wife to go outside now. It’s a wasp, but about three times bigger.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:37 AM
late to the convo on this one: been running regularly for about 2-3 months now, used to hate it, can’t get enough of it. working off the weight gain from a back injury before thanksgiving, finally back down to my summer weight last year.
June 8th, 2011 at 9:37 AM
Thanks, dude. I wanted to do it in March here in GA, but I wasn’t trained enough. I instead did the Spartan Race at the end of April. I’m going to start training with that linked workout around Labor Day. That’s about three months of a different workout. I’ll also up my cardio and switch to distance on the trails.

A year before we went one of my roommates was trucked by a dude on a bike at UGA (I would have paid a ton of money to see this happen). He claims the dude on the bike suffered more, but seeing as he had a tread mark on his stomach, I beg to differ. Anyway, he was freaking out when we were walking around because bikes were coming fast and furious and as you said, they weren’t stopping. You had to get the hell out of the way.

Hardest thing about running is getting started/into a routine. Once you get that going, you get that runners high and you look forward to the feeling you get AFTER you run, which makes it a lot easier, IMO.

I’m allergic to bee stings so if my neighbors saw it, it’s probably on YouTube. 6’5″ gangly man outside in jeans, hoodie and ski-mask with raid can staying about 15 feet from the nest and just saturating that thing. I also had a rolled up newspaper in the other hand.
Yes, when they all dispersed I ran inside like a little girl. I did come out at dusk with some lighter fluid and burn that sucker though. Whoever survived the Raid definitely got BBQ’d.

All of this. Was downtown last night just as the sun was going down, so there was enough light coming through the buildings and such, but you weren’t sweating. It was great. God I love cities.
Ditto. I’m competitive, so I had to turn running in to some sort of competition. Once I took up the 5k deal, it was all down hill from there. It helps to run outside too. Running in a gym isn’t nearly as enjoyable.
