Needless to say, the McCain/Schrute/Bauer Ticket has my Vote:Of course, Schrute's appointment of Jack Bauer as his Secretary of Defense is entirely consistent with his character:Thank you for Subscribing to Say Simpleton.

LeBron James and Dwight Howard had two different results in each of their games yesterday but at least they both managed to get some pretty sick blocks. In the Cavs and Celtics matchup, the Cavs hme court advantage helped them out tremendously.  The Celtics were never really in the game. In this play, Rajon Rondo gets a [...]

The Superman Dunk which Dwight Howard came up with, is not offically a dunk. His hands do not touch the rim. Instead he jumps as high as he could and then throws the basketball in the basket with the impression of Superman throwing a rock. But not an offical dunk although it counted and he got the points for it. Watch closely. Dwight Howard brought back creativity in the dunk contest this year. All of his dunks were never seen before in the history of the NBA. It is nearly impossible to come up with a dunk you've invented, because basketball has been around for a long time and someone has already done the dunk you think you invented. On the other hand, Gerald Green invented the Birthday Cake Dunk The Birthday Cake Dunk which really should've been a 50 in this years dunk contest. The proble

Here's one for you. On the popular television show The Office , the character Dwight Shrute was given a bobble-head version of himself by his girlfriend, Angela. Why not do a video game based on the show, with all of the characters portrayed as bobble-heads?Here's one way that it could go: Dwight has been given the word by Michael that Jim is now to be given the official title of Assistant Regional Manager. Dismayed, Dwight must find Jim to learn whether or not the prank-meister even wants the coveted title.To find him, he must battle through pinatas shaped like Ryan's head, deadly vampire bats, and last but not least, Roy.Upon finding Jim, Dwight learns that, as he suspected, Jim cares little for the title, and would happily relinquish it to Dwight - as long as he keeps his seniority.

Though the Dwight Twilley Band only had one hit (Twilley had another on his own), Twilley and partner Phil Seymour created an enduring and highly memorable brand of power pop that blended Beatlesque pop and Sun rockabilly "slapback" echo. Only a fraction of the band's early output was made available at the time, but these records are highly revered by power pop aficionados. According to the legend, Dwight Twilley met Phil Seymour in 1967 at a theater where they had gone to see the Beatles' A Hard Day's Night. After the film they immediately went to Twilley's house to start writing and recording. The two continued the partnership over the next several years, calling themselves Oister and recruiting another part-time member, Bill Pitcock IV, on lead guitar. After developing their sound in their homemade studio, "the Shop," they decided to take a stab at professional recording and headed out to Nashville, though they ended up stopping first at the legendary Sun Studios.

John Clayton, of ESPN.com, reports the Colts have signed Pro-Bowl DL Dwight Freeney to a six-year, $72 million deal earlier today. The new contract includes a gigantic $30 million signing bonus. As reported first by NFLGridIronGab.com writer and Bearsgab.com editor Russell Loede (June 18) last month, the Indy DE was ready to cash in; Freeney’s new deal is going to be worth $12 million a year. The Syracuse alum is a monster on the defensive line for Head Coach Tony Dungy, whose new book “Quiet Strength” just came out, and the SB champs were well aware of his presence on the gridiron, as they made sure to make him one of the highest paid players in the league along with his teammate QB Peyton Manning. Freeney is worth his big-money deal, and I expect him to have a big year on the field in ‘07 like he did in ’04 and ’05 (16 and 11 sacks, to go with a combined 10 forced fumbles), not the ’06 season – only 5 ½ sacks. He will rebound this season and the extra “green” wil

Continuing with the basketball talk, it looks like Dwight Howard will be getting a new tutor in Orlando. Stan van Gundy has finished filling out his coaching staff and the list includes former Knick great Patrick Ewing, who will be in charge of showing D-Ho how to further dismantle anyone that dares enter the paint.Patrick Ewing was hired as an assistant coach for the Orlando Magic, filling out Stan Van Gundy's staff. Brendan Malone, Steve Clifford and Bob Beyer also were hired as assistant coaches, the team said Tuesday. Ewing, an 11-time All-Star, was a Rockets assistant from 2004-06, and served on the Washington Wizards' coaching staff. He'll work with low-post players, including All-Star Dwight Howard.Well, if they needed someone to show Howard how to sweat incredible amounts and wear huge knee pads, than Ewing is the right fit. Eh, I'm sorry, I had to get that joke out of the way.All kidding aside, I think that Ewing is a great guy to help refine Howard's game. I really can

Book Description ISBN-0521859816 This is the first textbook in microeconomics written exclusively for MBA students. McKenzie/Lee minimizes attention to mathematics and maximizes attention to intuitive economic thinking. The text is structured clearly and accessibly: Part I of each chapter outlines the basic theory and Part II applies this basic theory to management issues. 'Perspective' sections

See that face right there? That's the face of a man that just single handedly eliminated a team from play-off contention. Dwight Howard scored a career high 35 points as the Magic beat the 76ers 104-87 and mathematically eliminating the Sixers from post-season play.With the win, Orlando's "magic number" goes down to 2 games to clinch a play-off spot. They trail the Nets by 1 game, so if New Jersey stumbles they could get the 7th seed and then probably face the Bulls in the play-offs instead of the Pistons.But important right now is to just get that play-off spot wrapped up and that starts by beating the Celtics today, which should not be very hard. The Magic will probably get trucked in the first round but I'll be happy just 'cause they made it in.Let's not forget that this team was picking 1st overall just three years ago and they did a great job then by drafting Dwight Howard and Jameer Nelson. And even though they got screwed over by Fran Vazquez in the 2005 draft, they still m

Dwight Howard will be participating in the Dunk Contest at the All-Star Weekend on February 17th and that means that it's time for me to tell you how awesome Howard is going to be.Dwight dunks like I masturbate. Hard and angry. When Dwight dunks, it makes Jarod of Subway lose 10 pounds. It's not the sandwiches that make him skinny, it's constant fear of being on the receiving end of a Dwight Howard windmill slam.When Dwight dunks, he's breaking 27 laws of gravity. Why do you think that Tyrus Thomas said that he's just there to collect a check and go home? Because he knows that Howard's drink of choice is a juice called "Get that weak shit out of here".Howard is actually a member of the X-Men. Professor X found saw him one day on a playground working on his moves. Xavier then tried to use his mental powers to block Howard from taking it to the hole. You now know why Xavier is in a wheelchair.So yeah, D-Ho is going to have some fun next Saturday. He's going to dunk so insane that

Yes sir, that's Dwight Howard getting warmed up for the dunk contest during last night's game against the Spurs. First Howard reminds Tony Parker who wears the pants in the relationship and then he puts a move on Tim Duncan that is illegal in 35 states.Not only was that play beyond awesome, it was also the game winner. Dwight dunked it so hard that Stuart Scott's lazy eye got better. Howard jumped so high that it made Nate Robinson 5 inches taller. That's how good he is. When Dwight makes a play, grown men start to cry. Ask Tim Duncan. He's still crying. And let's not forget the great pass thrown by Hedo Turkoglu. The last time people in Florida saw such a nice pass, Dan Marino was still playing. Byron Leftwich tried to throw a ball like that once. Howard blocked it in his face. The sheer force of the block ruptured Chris Simms' spleen. That's how awesome Dwight Howard is. Those other dunkers have been warned...

NBA All-Star Weekend is supposed to be an event to showcase the many stars in the league in various competitions slanted toward the enjoyment and fulfilment of the fans. Why then do us fans never see justice prevail? The NBA Slam Dunk contest -- no matter the amount of criticism received and 'old hat' feeling -- is still one of the most anticipated events for basketball fans come February. In essence, we are all judges. However, the only judges that matter are the legends and godfathers of rim-rockin' who are situated at a table courtside. Michael Jordan, Dr. J, Kobe Bryant, Dominique Wilkins and Vince Carter were on hand to scrutinize each participants dunk by holding up a card with their score. Unfortunately, the best dunk of the night got no love from the judges. The dunk contest is widely considered to be judged on a mixture of many different elements. Creativity, power, grace, crowd-pop, showmanship, etc. 7 ft tall rising star, Dwight Howard, came onto the floor for his second
