The Internets: Making it arraign

pacman.jpgDMX passes along two links: An all-time wrestling blooper (even if you don’t like rasslin’) and the opinion that Eileen looks like she’s been practicing a Zoolander pose. He has a point, don’t you think? Let this be a lesson: There’s more to life than being really, really, really good looking.

*Jayson Stark has been taking some human blog hormone (also known as the dangerous cocktail mixture of espresso, corn chips and a three-pack of white t-shirts) and has produced a book’s worth of copy in about 7 hours of congressional hearings.

*But we’ve saved the best for last. Pac-man Jones is in trouble with the law. Again. This time, he allegedly slapped a woman outside a strip club. And the woman was a defense attorney. That prompted the outstanding Deadspin comment from Gourmet Spud, “She’s going to make it arraign,” which we co-opted for the headline and as far as we can tell is the best comment we’ve ever read on Deadspin. That, in conjunction with a conversation yesterday with Jon, got us to thinking: If you could vote for best comment in RandBall history, what would it be?

Seriously, you expect me to remember a comment from further back than last week? Just like anything, “best” = most recent good thing I can remember.

I’m sure the best comment EVER will pop up in about 11 minutes. Where’s Stu when you need him?!

I agree with Dave. “We want the pants…” will probably be the winner, unless someone is REALLY bored and decides to go searching.

In said conversation yesterday, I cast my vote for this comment, and I refuse to budge from that position.

Wait a second.

Current Occupation: Target Corporation

Wow. No wonder the CEO left, Eileen is Target!

The Sin City Rollers will be just fine.

Since it was in a main article, Rand’s NFL preseason prediction of the 49ers in the NFC Championship game is ineligible, if hilarious.

C’mon, that was after like 4 tall beers with Linnemann. Fine, it was still ridiculous.

I also wonder if in her spare time, Eileen is planning on building a “Center for kids who can’t read good and what do other stuff well…”

Would someone fill me in with why the dance team has nine! first year members?

Shifty, it’s probably so they can fit in with the rest of the McLovins.
