Rule #76

[Editor's Note:  it's Wedding Crashers day here at the GameTime, TBD© offices.  We have these days ever so often, reserved specifically for those days when the Chief is not in the best of moods.  Nothing is worse than a grumpy Chief, and thanks to the NHL and their crappy officials, that's what we're dealing with today.  Very scientific studies have shown that quoting Wedding Crashers ad nuaseum usually gets at least a laugh or two out of the big guy, so that's what we're going with.]
Sometimes there is no better way to start your Friday than with a trip down memory lane.  And this trip happens to involve a little game I am sure you are all familiar with:  Marry-[censored]-Kill.  As avid readers of GameTime, TBD©, I am sure you are all the type of people who have played it before.  If you have not . . . well . . . you should be ashamed of yourself and I will have to strongly reconsider whether you are worthy of reading this site.  But since we are trying to keep things positive for the Chief today, I will just direct you here to get a quick overview of the rules and move on.  Sure, it is a game we used to play in middle school, and usually the subjects were our teachers, school administrators, or the girls who had been deemed "unsightly" by their fellow classmates.  But every now then something happens [read: you get drunk], and you find you and your friends playing a friendly game of M-F-K just like you were twelve years old again.
Well, one of the many sports blogs we frequent during the preparation of your weekly source of entertainment [read: the Link Dump] runs a weekly M-F-K feature, and this week's was a duesy.  So much so that we thought everyone should be forced to ponder it.  So I ask you, dear readers, of the following three choices, who would you marry, [censored], and kill:  (1) Brooklyn Decker; (b) Marisa Miller; and (iii) Bar Refaeli?  For those of you who are frequent visitor to our little corner of the world wide web, the Chief's answer should be obvious.  His affliction for blonds, especially one in particular, means poor Ms. Refaeli has an early appointment with death, poor Ms. Decker only gets to taste the goods once, and Ms. Miller becomes Ms. GameTime, TBD© (shocking, I know).  But we are not all like the Chief, so I challenge you to drop us a line with your picks.  And remember, no matter what you decide, one of the great beauties of this generation must be sacrificed.  Rule #76:  No excuses.  Play like a champion.
Once you have finished pondering one of life's great questions, do not fear, we have more ways for you to pass the time on this beautiful Friday.  Like with these links:
  • I am calling B.S. on this study, especially after reading the first summary point.  [Editor's Note: just use some basic mathematics . . .]
  • Apparently Sports Illustrated thought it had been too long since they ran a piece about Lance Armstrong probably being a cheater.
  • Don't waste your time on girls with [Swedish jerseys]. They tend to be very proper.
    Yeah? Well, the proper girl in the [Swedish jersey] just eye-[censored] the [censored] out of me.
  • If you are in possession of a Blake Griffin rookie card, I would hold onto it for a little while longer.  Or you could just go ahead and throw it on eBay.
  • Phil Mickelson is back to eating meat . . . wait, what?
  • Golfer plays world record 10,800 holes in a single year. No, not that golfer.
  • In need of a good laugh?  Vince Young is here to help.
  • 2011 is quickly becoming the "Year of the Homeless Man".
  • Looking for a little extra pick me up in your training?  Go with the deer antler velvet extract.
  • Infographics are fun.
  • I wonder what Will Hill's interviews will be like at the NFL combine?  [Editor's Note: language may be considered slightly offensive.]
  • Get it? Get it? You see, it is funny because he is fat.
  • I am not sure it was the execution that was as much the problem as the original plan.  I am just saying . . .
  • Are they built for speed or comfort?
  • "Many locals in the crowd showed embarrassment that two grown men should fight over something so stupid, while many teenage males egged it on, the witness said."  Are you sure they were not showing embarrassment for actually being at a lawnmower race?
Rumor has it some of you out there had an extra special Thursday night and are in no mood to be doing any work today.  [*wink*]  Well, if that is the case, you have two choices: you can either (1) make me an exact replica, to scale, of Wrigley Field; or (b) just go ahead and check out these videos:
  • EVERYBODY . . .
  • If you are not watching The Onion's "Sports Dome", here is what you have been missing.  [Editor's Note: uncensored version.]
  • Being from Southern California, I am not too familiar with snow plows.  But I am pretty sure that is not supposed to happen.
  • It takes a special kind of outburst for a coach to get a standing ovation.
  • Some people find cat videos irresistibly funny.  If you are one of those people, this video is for you.
  • Oh, and this one too.
  • This is why Los Angeles needs a better subway system.
  • Did you know the Australian Open (yes, the tennis tournament) had started?  Well, apparently it has been quite entertaining thus far.
  • So, I guess we are in that whole "every major sports announcement requires a spoof of 'The Decision'" phase then?  Good to know.
Have a great weekend everyone!
