Don't Cross This Bridge

As I was waiting to hear news on Rove and Libby's future (which, it seems, will be delayed) last night, I was watching an NBA preseason game between the Golden State Warriors and the Phoenix Suns. I overheard former Wizards coach Doug Collins wax how Golden State was on the rise.

Read that last sentence again.

I almost choked on my McChicken Sandwich when I heard it myself. Let's get something straight: there's a short list of Cinderella teams in the NBA, and the Warriors aren't on it. Check their previous seasons and their pre-season reccord thus far. this is not a franchise with a recent history of turning things around. I don't care what the survey says. Putting one overrated psuedo-point guard on your roster isn't going to make you a playoff contender. They're certainly not winning their division, and that's the easiest way to get a playoff spot. And considering that they'd got to be better than the Clippers, Lakers, Hornets, Blazers, Wolves and Jazz (last season's "out crowd") I think Golden State has a looooong way to go.

Once they get some defenders, playmakers, and a big guy that can hold their own against the Tim Duncans and Kevin Garnetts, then we'll talk.

For being DC Comic's most recognizable female character, WW has been given the cinematic shaft for a long time. We've seen two incarnations of Lois Lane and countless Bat-groupies, but not one decent pitch for the Amazon in the big screen. And we're talking about a character who made armored underwear cool waaay before anyone heard of Princess Leia. So here's one humble man's suggestion for any future casting of the Wonder Woman movie. I really have three rules for casting: she has to be at least 5'10", under 45 and attractive enough to pass for a princess. Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co

5 Actresses Who Deserve a Bigger Break

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav
