Your favorite Cowboys quarterback may be able to escape the grasp of an angry defensive lineman or improvise following a busted play, but he definitely can't sing.
Tony Romo threw out the first pitch amid a bunch of boos and sang "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at Wrigley Field on Sunday. This is guaranteed to make you cringe.
But is it as bad as this version by Jeff Gordon? We think not. Vomit.
The phenomenon of The Hills has largely eluded me. Even though the MTV show's stars have saturated the media with tales of their dating escapades and fashion lines, I couldn't pick Lauren or Heidi out of a lineup. From what little I've seen of the show, I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has.
So I thought maybe the cover story in the latest issue of Rolling Stone would enlighten me. Nope. If anything, The Hills seems even more vapid now. Can anyone clue me in on the show's appeal?
It made me wonder who sponsors other players' pages, and the first one to come to mind was Roger Clemens, given his recent appearances in the news. Guess who does? No one. But for $325, it could be you! And you could include a personal message like, "Thanks for the childhood memories. Love, Mindy." Anyone with disposable income out there?
As I watched the previews before Iron Man* on Friday afternoon, something unexpected happened ... I got goosebumps when the Indiana Jones theme song blared through the surround sound system at the theater.
I was never a big Indy fan, but I'm actually pretty intrigued about the newest venture: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Definitely something for my May 22 to-do list.
* - Iron Man was pretty flippin' cool, by the way. I think it may be my favorite superhero movie ever, passing Spider-Man 2. I've never liked Robert Downey Jr., but he was great in the role. And the special effects --most notably, the suit -- were as good as any of the previous Marvel offerings.
