Urban Saints

Jun 22, 2006 Author: stephen chip | Filed under: Toys

The Saints - Available at Urban OutfittersAs some of you may or may not know, I’m a big fan of interesting and unusual toys. So when I found these beauties over at Urban Outfitters, I couldn’t resist (Not to mention they were on sale plus an additional 25% off).

However, I don’t think St. Anne (patron saint of lost objects), St. Martha (patron saint of waiters and waitresses, Huh?), or St. Homobonus (patron saint of business) ever imagined they would one day end up immortalized in plastic.

What do Tom Petty and The Who have to do with the NBA finals?

Jun 20, 2006 Author: stephen chip | Filed under: Rants

Dinasaur rockers at the nba finals
In a word… nothing.

The music played throughout ABCs coverage of the 2006 NBA finals is old man classic rocker Tom Petty. The Mavericks are introduced to The Who’s “Eminence Front”. What? Eminence front? Yes siree.

It’s hard to imagine in 2006 that we would be watching a finals game with old dinosaur rockers at the helm. Last time I checked it was 2006. Basketball is all about attitude. It’s about a lifestyle. It’s about tatoos.
Heard any:

Black Eyed Peas…
50cent…
Mike Jones…
Kanye West…

Nope!

Instead it’s good ‘ol boy TOM PETTY and one foot in the grave rockers THE WHO.

Hey ABC, time to make some producer changes at your outdated network. Pay attention to what’s going on in the world cause here comes the newsflash… TOM PETTY and THE WHO signed off in 1982.
