Weird Japanese Commercial

I wonder if people in Japan watch clips of our commercials and say, “Are those people fucking crazy?” Here’s yet another example of the way the Japanese continue to ensure us that despite everything, there is always a country filled with people weirder then us!Read More

Editorial: If it’s broken… FIX IT!

BANZAI!!!!

Okay guys, it’s time for me to have a rant. In order to get this rant going, I have a question to ask…

Does anyone actually take soccer seriously anymore?

Not even counting the quality of the refereeing decisions, which varies from game to game with no rhyme or reason, the amount of acting that can be found in this game, from taking dives to supposed hits to the head, is appalling! In no other sport that I know of would this level of cheating ever be accepted. But for some reason, soccer seems to embrace it! It’s gotten to the point now that people are saying that it is actually part of the sport, and it makes it so much more exciting.

No, I’m sorry, it doesn’t make it more exciting, it does, however, make it pathetic to watch.

Deathspanking the Tick?

I love Patrick Warburton. He is my ultimate man-crush. He is one of the funniest actors alive, and he’s the only person I know that can deliver his lines with such a “straight-man” appeal. Every time he makes a movie … Read More

Editorial: What is Talkingship Good For?

There’s a question I have to ask myself as we launch this new evolution of the website / podcast / forum that you’re looking at today.  It’s a question that should be asked before you jump off of any cliff: What the hell am I thinking?

I am a married man, with two little girls that I cherish beyond words and a wife that is more understanding and devoted then I deserve.  My best friend lives within a half hour drive, and we make excuses to hang out together whenever possible.  I have a pretty good job that affords me most of the luxuries I need, but I’ve managed to cling to the wild aspirations of youth by sneaking away to write the next Great American Novel.  In other words, I’m happy, content, and very, very busy.  All these things represent the backbone of the question that is weighing on me tonight.  What the hell am I thinking?

Talkingship Review: MLB 10 The Show

Sports games are often times viewed based on whether they add enough to the franchise to warrant a purchase, even if you owned the game’s prior release. This is understandable, if not slightly unfair. Releasing a new game each year … Read More
