Going to Another Well

Sometimes the best way to get a good perspective on a subject is from a source that doesn't typically cover the subject at hand.

With that, I give you the Root's (via Martin Johnson) take on the Wizard's coaching change (among others):

[Eddie] Jordan is paying for the sins of his GM, Ernie Grunfeld. By tying up so much money in Gilbert Arenas' ever-frail physique, he cemented the Wizards as a mediocre team. As Wizards fans are learning, it's a far shorter distance from mediocre to miserable than it is from there to the elite. With Arenas and Brendan Haywood hurt, and the rest of the conference on the upswing, a Wizards team that figured to decline went into freefall. It's easier to change coaches than change rosters, and that applies big time to the Wizards.


Sounds like someone else believes that this was about Grunfeld "justifying his job security."

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.

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...

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...
