The Best Sideline Report Ever (video)
This sideline reporter for Fox Sports is the all-time leader in the clubhouse for honesty and making the best of what could have been an embarrassing, job-ending moment. Instead, you can’t help but love this guy. photo credit for stadium on home page featured post: rc!
Suzette: Killer Beta Fish (video)
Suzette has garnered quite a bit of attention since she arrived at the Gabriel household. Las Vegas has the over / under on her at 17 days. As of today, it’s Day 12. I’m starting to think she’ll make the over, but her continued fascination with her filter may change the course of her young [...]
