Something went horribly wrong with his teeth in between his two stints with the Red Wings. He went to rehab twice and once for an undisclosed substance... meth maybe? Teeth don't get that way from hockey... especially when you're not playing that much.
So far, this is the only negative part of the NHL in HD experience. I strongly suggest watching some playoff hockey. It may surprise you to know that you get Versus (the main channel for the NHL with NBC handling the weekend games). Maybe you didn't realize it was on because Versus sandwiches the NHL between HOLY @#%*! and Bull Riding. I guess hockey is actually the shitty lead-in since the Versus website lists Bull Riding before NHL Hockey. Hey, at least the NHL has clawed its way back to relevancy on the ESPN header. I'm pretty sure it was lifted after Women's Hoops at one point.

I wish more girls would wear Old Navy. The new Old Navy commercial in the "Neon Nights" series runs on national television very often and resident nipple sleuth Alex pointed out that a nip makes a brief appearance. With his expert DVR skills, we were able to use slow-mo and find the exact instant that nipple is most evident. The pictures are below:
Most likely due to the fact that I have the television habits of a 13 year-old girl, I have seen that same Old Navy commercial about 20 times in the past week. If you haven't noticed, Old Navy has been re-positioning its products by creating commercials that try to convince teens that a young adult model may wear one of their garments to a hot night club. It definitely has that "The Hills" vibe. The new idea is low cost clothing but high fashion style. Not a bad idea if H&M, Zara, etc. weren't already doing it. It's at least better than the solid color background commercials that showed the piece and the price. Although my research for this post indicated that this new line got generally positive reviews. The other funny thing was my search brought me to a blog post asking how often its readers went bra-lass. Here's the actual commercial:
Nip happens at 1:36 but it's slightly different in the 30 second spot
Coincidentally, I got a picture message from my friend Cully today. He's in Istanbul on tour with The Gutter Twins. They just played in Lisbon and Athens... lucky bastard. He came across a wall postered for a brand called Snatch Street Fashion. This is probably one of the sweetest logos of all time. I usually don't wear my huge diamond ring when I plan on deploying the shocker. But maybe it's time to start.
I'm in Chicago at our corporate headquarters picking up supplies for our concert at the Darkroom. The Heavy is about to rock this town. That's why I have to make sure our girls have their wifebeaters and got2b hair gel to pass out.
We watched the last Real World and I have to say that I was thoroughly entertained. We didn't get very far into the LA version of this show without encountering the infamous promoter-douchebag species. I have to deal with some of these people at work and they are quite greasy. Some are better than others, but of course Brianna brought home the biggest douche of them all: JoJo. He's got a faux-hawk, wears eyeliner, opts not to wear a shirt under his hoodie, and has no problem dry-humping people in public.
JoJo mounts Brianna as Kimberly and Sarah watch in horror... and prepare their next holier-than-thou speech for Bri (because they care about her, not because they're judgmental)
I've been praying on a daily basis that this guy makes a return to the show. The most impressive feat (other than bringing his douchebaggery into the house) was when he essentially mounted Brianna as the roomies were hanging out in the kitchen. It would be one thing if they were alone and Brianna wasn't wearing boy-shorts and a thong... but this d-bag is forcing the issue (and his semi) into the uncomfortable zone. Also, does anybody else think that Brianna looks like "The Twins" from The Matrix: Reloaded?
The best stoned/naked bongo player the entire world has HGH to thank for all of his records. I hate to break it to you, but the golden boy takes HGH. How do I know this? I injected it into his ass. Not really -- there's no Canseco-style smoking syringe here. I actually worked an event last year with a model named Amber Hay. She's been in a few movies (including Beerfest) and was Joe Francis's girlfriend... before he went to jail and became somebody's bitch. However, she's best known for impersonating Paris Hilton in a fake music video that is still one of the top 100 videos all-time on YouTube with 21,000,000+ views.

Amber came out to dinner with us after CollegeFest and we talked the whole time. So far as I can remember, she's from Hawaii and her dad was a professional surfer. She moved to California within the past couple years and has been pursuing a career in acting since then. She actually seemed pretty down to earth -- which you might not expect with her look and profession. We eventually ended up talking about one of her recent projects. She said she had been working with Matthew McConaughey called Surfer Dude. She then went on to say that he used HGH. I wouldn't post this if I thought it was bullshit. There's even a comment in a blog post from JustJared that accuses him of using HGH. I mean, look at the guy... and he's almost 40 now. Amber didn't bring it up to be malicious -- she was actually trying to defend him. You know, that old "it's competitive in Hollywood and your body/face are your livelihood" argument that you hear constantly on E! when they do shows about eating disorders or plastic surgery.
I actually like the guy because he plays one of the best characters of all time in Dazed and Confused and also is a huge Texas Football fan. I can't really blame the Matthew McConaughey for using HGH. Sylvester Stallone admitted that he used HGH to get in shape for Rocky Balboa. Sly also got caught with a SHITLOAD of Chinese HGH at an airport in Australia. If you watch MTV, every single one of those hulking beasts on Real World/Road Rules Challenge roids. I think they actually recruit them based on how much they can bench press. Let's also not forget that 50 Cent, Mary J. Blige, Timbaland, and Wyclef were allegedly customers of a performance enhancing drug ring as well.

So I would have to lean towards believing what Amber said. I'm interested to see what other people think, so vote in the poll below:
So I'm working on "girl outreach" for a series of events coming up this month. I've been in touch with a handful of Playboy Special Edition models about working these events. Today, I got a hilarious email from one of the girls regarding her availability...
Hey chris! I just wanted to give you a heads up..I should be available for this function, however I am having a cosmetic procedure done this monday..After talking with my doctor he said I should be okay in time for this event...But just in case I wanted to let you know in the event I am not able to make it...
I approve. As Beyonce says on the Time Warner Cable commercial: UPGRADE! UPGRADE!
I love this commercial. Drew Rosenhaus is an awesome agent... getting his former "The U" players gigs in Hungry Man commercials. The basic premise: these NFL players go to the grocery store and buy a SHITLOAD of Hungry Man. And that's probably not a good idea if you take a look at the nutrition facts below from a Hungry Man "Classic Fried Chicken" Dinner.
