NBA GIVES ARTEST TIME TO PROMOTE RAP CD
So I'm at Rock Bottom watching the Pacers-Pistons game and apparently I left too soon. With just over 45 seconds left in the game, Artest fouled Wallace. Wallace shoved Artest. Artest backs off, making a show of it by reclining on the press table. Fan throws drink at Artest. Artest bolts into crowd to throw punch at fan. Cue riot and... scene.
Calling it the Throwdown in Motown, the Indy Star said Artest's reaction was "human nature" and asked "who wouldn't do precisely the same thing?"
Meanwhile, the Free Press takes a slightly different point of view, saying that Artest is "obviously a man in need of some serious help."
And on the Left Coast, Joshua Penrod added today's Union-Trib sports cover to his portfolio with the title "Motown 'Frodown." Awesome.
THIS JUST IN: Is there anyone out there who can tell me that The Daily Show is not the funniest show on television? I mean, I know the PR for that show has been out of control lately, but is there another show that you laugh out loud to as much? Maybe Scrubs. Maybe Simpsons. Maybe Arrested Development. But they are only on once a week. I'm saying the frequency pushes The Daily Show over the top.
Well, that and the fact that Thursday night they had a clip of Clinton talking about "conservatism vs. liberalism" and noted that a significant part of Clinton's presidency involved "juh-ism."
Well crafted.
WELCOME TO THE NEWSROOM, BITCH! The Orange County Register was all over The OC on Thursday night. At one point Ryan was reading a fake edition of the paper before school and in another scene The New Guy mentioned that he reads the Register every morning. I wonder if the OCR actually printed up a fake edition for them or if a prop department made it...
IN OTHER NEWS: Back in Indiana, TV's Ken Bode says TV's Tom Brokaw should run for president... and the quote of the day comes via Lindsayism from an old episode of Mr. Show: "Opinions are like assholes - I'll let you know when I want yours."
