I usally don’t watch too much MTV anymore (except for Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory), but today my co-worker tipped me off about a new show that I’m going to have to put high on my “watch” list. The show is called “Bully Beatdown” and is hosted by Jason ‘Mayhem’ Miller a mixed martial arts fighter. The idea of the show is simple:

1. Ever been picked on by a bully?
2. Let ‘Mayhem’ Miller know.
3. He confronts the bully and gives the bully a chance to prove himself in the ring.
4. One catch…he’s gotta go up against a professional fighter.
5. If he can beat the professional fighter…the bully wins $10,000.

Check out this trailer of the show…I can’t wait to see these tools get smacked around the cage. The show airs on Sunday March 22nd @ 9:30pm ET/PT.

Hey guys! It’s been a few subpar weeks of picking games by GrandmasterB, and I just didn’t have the time to sit down and write up a recap. Today I am back and it’s my unfortunately pleasure to inform you all that I’ve fallen a bit in the standings. A few weeks ago, I had finally cracked the top five and held down the #4 spot for awhile. However, after two crappy weeks of picking I’ve no fallen to #6.

I was a little worried, but then I realized that the seperation between myself and the first place team (Tailgating Ideas) is only three games. I still have a shot at catching up! Last week I managed to go 11-5 which isn’t bad, but it wasn’t as good as the 14-2 put up by Sports Opinion. I might’ve had a better week if the Jets didn’t suck and Tony Romo could complete a pass to his own receivers. The New York Giants didn’t help either…I guess they’re all worried about Plax, or so I’ve heard. I plan on stepping my game up this week and hopefully I can finish at the top spot for a change. Here’s how the week broke down:

Yesterday I posted my Top Ten: Best Movies of 2008, so how do I follow that up? With my Top Ten: Worst Movies of 2008. There were many good movies that came out in 2008, but even more terrible movies were released. Sometimes I sit back and wonder how these movie producers can throw their money into these garbage films…it’s simple amazing to me. There were many crappy movies out there, and having to choose only ten was difficult. Before we get to the list, here are a few dis-honorable mentions:

DIS-HONORABLE MENTIONS
10,000 B.C. – Didn’t we just see this movie? The should have named it Apocolypto, B.C.
Rambo – Seeing Stallone reprise this role just reeks of desperation.
Beverly Hills Chihuahua – Seriously?
You Don’t Mess With The Zohan – Adam Sandler was funny in the late 90s and hasn’t been since.

2008 was certainly a great year for movies! The theme of the year, as with previous years was centered around the super-hero blockbuster. We saw two films from the Marvel Universe, one from DC Comics and another off the wall super hero movie that was not very super. We had Robert Downey Jr. jump back on the scene as Iron Man and a black man! We had Jack Black as a Kung Fu Panda and a heroin junkie. The year also saw one of the best performances by an actor in recent history. So…what was the best movie of 2008? Let’s count ‘em down.

#10. Speed Racer
I know that many people didn’t like this movie and found it too “cartoony”, but I loved it! Well, maybe not loved but I did thoroughly enjoy the movie. The special effects were very cool, and the new technology used on the colors was brilliant. The story had a typical kids movie script, but it was decent enough to get me through the whole movie. Overall, it was good enough to get the number ten spot on my list.

GrandmasterB is used to having Mrs. GMB beat him down, but after this weeks action…I received a beatdown from another woman. This week Apryl from Women Like Sports tallied up an impressive 14-2 record and took the weekly prize in the Pigskin Picks contest. What surprises me the most is she was 14-1 after the Sunday games, and the one game she missed was the Tennessee Titans v. Jacksonville Jags game.

While I contemplated picking the Jags over the Titans, I thought twice about it and went with the Titans. Once again the Denver Broncos managed to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. That’s the second week in a row that I’ve picked against them and they won. I’m going to pick them this week over the Raiders; they better not let the Raiders win. If they do…Mike Shanahan is going to get a visit from GrandmasterB and it won’t be pretty. I know where your team practices Mike…BEWARE OF MY WRATH.
