Pete Plays Hockey?


Addendum to Separated at Birth? Part 4



Ok, so Sam Elliot looks like Von Kaiser, but I may have found the topper. Check it out.

Remember when...



Martina Navratilova ruled the court and the folk world at the same time?

Separated at Birth? Part 4



It's a little known fact that Sam Elliot had an acting hiatus in the mid eighties and tried his luck on the Punch Out circuit.

Separated at Birth? Part 3



Punch-Out may be the greatest "lookalike" game ever made!

So when he's not busy playing Billy in Predator, Sonny Landham is Super Macho Man.

Is it a coincidence that Super Macho Man was the most awesome boxer in Punch-Out? I think not. Sonny Landham just exudes "awesomeness" from every pore in his Cherokee body. Not really.

Separated at Birth? Part 2



I realized that a certain "comedic actor" looked like a certain "boxer" when I was playing Punch-Out today.

So if you ever get in a fight with Sandler, just alternate left and right jabs.

This sign hangs on Shanahan's office door


"Although Travis has the ability to be one of the top running backs in the NFL, we have to make decisions that are in the best interests of our organization and its goal of winning a Super Bowl," Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said in a statement. "We did not feel his commitment to the Broncos was enough to warrant a spot on this football team."

Those were the words uttered by the genius helming the Broncos' ship. Travis Henry had leg injuries at the end of the season and some off-field problems. Perhaps he was a bad influence in the locker room, but this feels like Tan-man is pawning off the blame again.

Clearly it was the poor work ethic of Travis Henry that brought the Broncos down last season. It wasn't the decision to kick to Devin Hester twice in one game. Both of those going back for touchdowns. It wasn't the decision to fire yet another coordinator. Obviously it wasn't the decision to never throw the ball more than 12 yards down field. It wasn't the lack of interceptions for touchdown. Nor was it the total neglecting of the receiving core.

Nope. None of those things made last season a losing season. It was all Travis Henry. I don't know how he can sleep at night knowing he made the Broncos go 7-9. If it weren't for him, they'd have gone to the Super Bowl.

Seriously, is Shanahan the Obama of football? He can do whatever the hell he wants and he doesn't have to pay a price. Where's the fairness in that? Some coaches, Art Shell, get one year to do some good and they're fired.

I was unaware that it was the goal of the Broncos to win Super Bowls. I thought there goal was to, start strong, tail off, barely make the playoffs, and lose in the first round. I thought that was their stated objective.

What did I say earlier, 6-10? I'm sticking with it. Though I might change it to 5-11. We'll see.

Bottom line: Shanahan, you're the problem bitch. Fire yourself!
