The Top 10 Films of 2008



After a lengthy process of seeing over 50 movies I hadn't see yet, here is my list of the best movies from the year. Check it out, let me know what you think. I'd love it if you guys made your own lists too. Either way, feedback is a plus.

An Oldie, But a Goodie

My roommate and I were watching an old WWF movie tonight, and I remembered this classic.

A Few Things

Just a few things on I must bring up...

- I cannot wait for the MLB season to start, but I really can't wait for fantasy baseball to start. Basement League members owe a certain 2008 champ $5 each oww oww (I kid, don't worry about it). I really want to write a fantasy draft preview, but I don't want to reveal any players I covet. Is A-Rod still a first rounder???

- This Brian Cashman note cracked me up.

- The Mad Dog has been the only listenable person in sports media when it comes to this A-Rod business. I always considered the Mad Dog name to be a bit stupid, but his energy level is always full blast and he truly may be insane. His train of thought today was hilarious, he went from A-Rod, ragging on his wife, his cat "Yum-yum", and back to A-rod in two seconds, shouting the whole way through. True hero.

- Tim Fite is the fucking man.

- Don't read Batman R.I.P.

Best Haunting Ever?

I was reading the wikipedia entry on haunted places today at work. While I have a few gripes with parts of the article, I did find something totally excellent. Apparently, Owen Hart may haunt the arena in Kansas City where he tragically died. There are unexplained sounds, flickering lights, and (most badass of all) people have reported seeing Hart in his Blue Blazer suit hooked up to a cable at the top of the arena. Holy Shit!

Graduating into this economy

Don't do it.
