Yesterday while shopping, I noticed that the first of the pro and college football annuals had hit the newsstands. Althon had both pro and college (their college annuals are done by region, so for CT, we had Eastern College football) and picked the Patriots to beat the Eagles in the Super Bowl. Beckett's has a pro football annual out which picked the Patriots to win the division but some other team to win the AFC. I cannot remember who they picked.
It is kind of silly when these annuals come out so early. Lots of factors cannot be taken into consideration as these annuals are written up post draft. I doubt the Jay Cutler trade to the Bears is covered and who knows what will happen in Training camp or the preseason. There are fewer and fewer of this annuals coming out. I used to buy Street and Smith every year, now they bought the Sporting News and come out as part of that line.
Pushing Daisies had a nice episode last night. Kristin Chenowith got to sing Hello until Ned (Lee Pace) interrupted her. They really need to take more advantage of Kristin and her gift for song. Hopefully she will be coming back to TV soon, I would like to see her host a variety show where she can make use of her talents.
Harper's Island goes on, the guy from Eureka got killed last night. He was burning the $250,000 that they found when the killer did away with him. That makes a total of 10 dead so far with six episodes to go. I am somewhat surprised that CBS is not doing double episodes on Sat night to finish it up faster. I guess they don't have anything better to show.
Cleveland Cavilers were eliminated by the Orlando Magic in the NBA playoffs. This were hurt the ratings as LeBron James was the big buildup with Cleveland finally getting a chance to win a championship. Cleveland once again is passed by for championship gold.
Pittsburgh lost game one to Detroit in the NHL finals. My sister is a big Penguins fan so I would like to see them win. Will be tough, the Red Wings are looking good.
The coming week we have Burn Notice starting up on USA and a new series, Royal Pains that I am interested in checking out. Why do the cable networks have so many interesting shows compared to the big four?
Oh well.
