Hmm... The MEDIA Is Involving Itself Way Too Much There...!

Débat 110% - Partie 1 (15/04/08)
Depuis la défaite du Canadien dimanche soir en prolongation, nombreux sont les journalistes sportifs qui ont fait des suggestions à Carbo.

Débat 110% - Partie 1 (15/04/08)



They're supposed to be IMPARTIAL - not give free advice to ONE SIDE over the other; influencing the STORY they'll be publishing shortly, in the process! And they dare frown upon bloggers - sheesh! You can't - not when your journalistic ethics are so low! What does this say, really - if you take something to heart, you will intervene (in some mild way only, of course - but intervention in any way is forbidden! Journalists are only to report a story; not shape it! They are supposed to observe and report - not even to give their opinion on it! And it takes a pundit blogger bandit to tell them how to do their JOB...! Hmm...)

Ultimately, I wonder WHAT THE HELL here; did these VERY partial so-called journalists and alleged members of the press really want to see their damn Canadiens not lose a single game...?!? Do the Canadiens deserve to be undefeated? NO! They're not perfect - in any way, shape or form! ONE DEFEAT, on Sunday night - and it should have been three in a row - and these members of the press simply had to come to the rescue and flood Carbo with precious advice on how to avoid "losing (just) another one" - is that it?

Ah but that's right... that's right... These so-called journalists, this special breed here, is simply NOT "real" pros - they're for the better part former haggard coaches and also wanna-be players who, too meek to choose that career-path, went into communications instead...
Besides, everybody's an expert and every single one of them is living vicariously and by proxy through the exploits -and failures- of their favorite team...!

Débat 110% - Pré-débat (14/04/08)
Les partisans du Canadien auraient-ils enterré les Bruins de Boston trop vite? Pourtant, ils devraient savoir que l’on ne doit jamais vendre la peau de l’ours avant de l’avoir tué... Hier soir, les joueurs de l’entraîneur-chef Claude Julien méritaient amplement leur victoire en prolongation. Le quatrième match revêt donc une très grande importance. Carbo aimerait certainement rentrer au Centre Bell avec une fiche de trois contre un... Attendez-vous donc à un match très serré sur la glace du TD Banknorth Garden, mardi soir. Non, les Bruins ne sont pas morts et ce sera le sujet du débat à 110 %


Update: that precious "advice" was so good, the Boston Bruins won the next two games, with a flurry of goals in the third period! 5-1 was the final score, in Montreal to boot! And then the Bruins won in spectacular fashion 5-4, back in Boston, outscoring the hated Habs 4-2 in the third frame.

Gee - I wish Carbo had gotten more advice like that!
Both earlier and later on...!

hmm... golden globes?

  Ever wondered why the hell they started rewarding  cheap TV without much in the way of standards of any kind  -often employing the same thespians, over and over again-  AND WHY did they ever decide to call these things  "THE GOLDEN GLOBES"  as this clearly doesn't always involve the whole damn globe  and there's no real gold to be dug up - nowhere!!!  The most prestigious award they have to give out,  truth be told, probably would be the  CAROL BURNETT (ACHIEVEMENT) AWARD  and they've given a grand total of... THREE TIMES  (including the one given away tonight: to 98 year-old  Norman Lear! Good thing they didn't wait any longer - eh?  As they could have given it to him last year: instead, they  chose to give it to ELLEN...!!! That's the video above...  The inaugural one -below- was Carol Burnett herself - duh)  Yeah, yeah - alright, alright;  they've got the CECIL B. De MILLE AWARD, too...  ...

HMM... 2020 WON ~ 2020 TWO!?

 Those... ominous semi-predictions  came to be true, pretty much...  ...so, now...  what can be hoped for  OUT OF 2023?  The preceding was brought to you by  Things To Come ... +++ 

hmm... better roles, she said?

 Recently (most recently; as that was... yesterday!)  on the award-winning talk show hosted by  KELLY CLARKSON (yeah - another "hmm" right there!)  this actress comes on (via zoom, skype or whatever)  and professes to have "fallen in love all over again with acting "  thanks to this new role that she nabbed... on this:  ...TOO BAD... the actual interview in which she  gushes so about it is just GONE...  It is based on a book - see?  One that is highly recommended ~ y'hear:  hmm... me, I still prefer  The Lumineers! But that's another story!  back to that actress though - EVE...  She recounts that she ALMOST QUIT ACTING  because all she was ever offered were parts of  "booby girlfriends" (I paraphrase...?)  (lest it was "bubbly GFs" - huh?)  (But no - I am pretty darn sure she spoke of boobs!)  and, still, she didn't quit... she persevered...  she made a name for herself while retaining ...
