  1. I would take this more seriously if Skip Bayless hadn't said it. Yes, there is too much focus on Taylor Swift during games, that's true. But here's the thing:  Skip's an idiot. I had to listen to him kiss Tom Brady's pathetic a** for years and belittle Aaron Rodgers because he can't stand that Rodgers is better than Brady. Because of this, I don't buy Skip's statements. I'll bet money that if T-Swift was dating Brady during his last years in New England and his Bucs tenure, Skip would be kissing her a** big time.

    Despite this, however, yeah, they need to cut the attention on T-Swift to just one time per game. That's it. Or to even it out, show Simone Biles more during Packers games. SImone's married to #Packers player Jonathan Owens.

  2. Liza (Mariah Carey) has it all: she has a wonderful husband (Mario Lopez), she is a stepmother to Mario's teenage daughter (Scarlett Estevez), and she is a well-known and loved businesswoman. Unbeknownst to Liza, there's one more thing she has: a long lost twin sister, Layla (Mariah Carey in a dual role). Unlike Liza, Layla's life hasn't gone well; she had just finished a prison sentence for manslaughter in the death of a lover of hers. It's not until she gets mistaken for Liza that Layla learns about her twin sister for the first time, and after learning about Liza's life and family, as well as her holiday plans, Layla schemes to remove Liza and steal her good life as a Christmas gift to herself.
     
    Additional cast includes Aimee Garcia as Mario's sister and Scarlett's aunt, Eva Longoria as Mario's first wife and Scarlett's mother, Vanessa Vander Pluym as Layla's lover/co-conspirator, and Ricardo Chavira & Annika Boras as a pair of detectives.

  3. I thought up this pitch last year, though honestly, I'm surprised that I didn't think of this years ago. Can you imagine a Lifetime thriller version of A Christmas Carol?! Oh man, that would be epic! I just thought of this idea, and I think I've worked some of the kinks out; granted, I'm not asking Lifetime to follow my pitch to the letter, all I ask is that they somehow turn the Dickens classic into one of their usual thrillers.

    So regarding casting, I'd have Jessica Morris as the Scrooge character; she'd be a successful businesswoman whose antipathy towards the holidays is due to the fact that Marley (her business partner) disappeared about five Christmases ago. They were not only partners in business, but in love as well, and the loss has made Scrooge's heart colder than Lambeau Field in January.

    Cameron Mathison could play the Bob Cratchit role; Scrooge's main employee. In this version, Cratchit's a widower with a young teenage son (Jason Maybaum in the "Tiny Tim" role), and while he does have romantic feelings for Scrooge, his nerve to tell her isn't there, though it does increase bit by bit, but Scrooge makes it a bit difficult for him.

    Vanessa Evigan in the Marley role; Scrooge's ill-fated business (and life) partner. Of course, similar to the Dickens tale, she appears as a ghost to Scrooge, but in an added twist, she warns Scrooge that her entire business is the cause of her cold and bitter demeanor, and urges her to sell to be free of the burden. Of course, the three spirits would be involved as well, with Briana Evigan as Christmas Past, and Greg Evigan as Christmas Present.

    As for Christmas Future (or Yet to Come), that's where the biggest twist comes in. It's actually revealed that Past and Present are actually hallucinations, as Scrooge had been drugged by the person posing as Future...none other than Marley herself. Marley faked her disappearance and had been gaslighting Scrooge for years, and she plotted this scheme in a vengeful plot against her now former wife. The reason: Scrooge's father bought out many small businesses, one of them belonging to Marley's father (Greg Evigan), which drove him into depression and to take not only his own life, but his other daughter (Briana Evigan) as well. Marley turned heel and plotted her revenge, with the marriage being part of it, which the images of the father and sister representing Past and Present being part of the forced guilt. Scrooge has to fight for her life and a chance at happiness, doing so against her villainous former life partner.

  4. Every Team's Simplest Path to the Playoffs (Week 16)

    The link shows how every team, who is still alive, can reach the playoffs. The Green Bay Packers are no exception. Here's how we can get in this season:

    Win Out + DET W over MIN + ATL loss + LAR loss + NO loss

    This is such a simple scenario, I'm so happy about this as a Packers fan. The Packers face the Panthers this week, go to Minnesota next week, and host the Bears on the final week. Both of Minnesota's other games are against the Lions, and Detroit only needs to win one of those two games. The Rams and Saints face each other tomorrow, so part of that scenario should be taken care of then (unless they tie). I'm also happy that Seattle isn't included, because they're playing the Titans, and I don't trust the Titans.

    Here's hoping the Packers are playoff bound this year!

  5. Is the kid good? Yes. Is he on his way to winning the Calder Trophy (Rookie of the Year) this year? Yes. But I swear, I have never seen a rookie get his a** kissed by networks more than Bedard. Even Sidney Crosby, Alex Ovechkin, and Connor McDavid never got this much a**-kissing, my goodness. Enough already with the Bedard ego trip.

  6. 8 hours ago, Sam LaRusso said:

    What is ketamine?

    Ketamine is a dissociative anesthetic used medically for induction and maintenance of anesthesia. It is also used as a treatment for depression, a pain management tool, and as a recreational drug. Ketamine is a novel compound that was derived from phencyclidine in 1962 in pursuit of a safer anesthetic with fewer hallucinogenic effects.
