Mark Holton: Sports movie legend

He's no Chelcie Ross, a man who portrayed George in Hoosiers, Eddie Harris in Major League and Dan Devine, the most hated man in South Bend, in Rudy. That's like Cy Young's win total-that thing is never going to be topped.

But Mark Holton is a solid second; consider him the 2008 Memphis to Ross' Kansas.


Holton

Holton played Chubby, the power forward with a delicatessen in his locker and a Kareem-esque hook shot, in Teen Wolf. He returned as Chubby in Teen Wolf Too, this time as a heavyweight boxer for Hamilton University. To complete the dynamic trio, Holton appeared in Little Giants as Mr. Zolteck, father of Rudy Zolteck, one of the great movie farters of all time.

Solid work, Holton.

Hamilton University fight song



The Hamilton boxing team needed a lift before the state championship bout against the Neemitz Academy. So, Chubby got the school fight song going and the rest is history.


"Hamilton, thou art highest of them all
we are loyal subjects, listening for your call.
Proud we of thy emblem, thou art colors green and white.
So let's get in the ring, boys, and fight, fight, fight!"

Bilbo's Motel




Bilbo's Motel is everywhere and everyone you wanted to be. I even went inside to make sure.


Derwood: "Bilbo's Motel?"

Desk clerk: "Yes. Is there something I can help you with, sir?"

Derwood: "The name of this motel is 'Bilbo's Motel'"?

DC: "Yes."

Derwood: "Who's Bilbo?"

DC: "Sir, would you like a room?"

Derwood: "Yeah, I'll take the Bilbo Room."

Things got ugly at the Stick




The Giants threw at Willie McGee after Jack Clark ripped a three-run home run in the fifth. Unfortunately for Robbie Thompson, he led off the bottom half of the inning.






"The animosity from (SF pitcher, Mike) Krukow could've come from the fact that we stole at will on Bob Brenly," said St. Louis manager Ozzie Yorlap. "But if you're three-hopping it into second, I'm sending Vince Coleman and the boys all game, baby. It's about winning RBI Baseball championships, not sparing some noodle arm's feelings."

Crazy Guy Sundays



Saw this fresh-faced youngster at a stop light and caught a little of the conversation he was having with a blade of grass:

"Hamby's got mine on a paddycoat, you can't step in front of my sismiss and say 'hey, who are you going on a chimrat'? Meatballs? Shoot, meatballs on a tie rack, baby."

That smell you're smelling is the 2000 NBA Draft

I know it's easy for a guy with a unibrow, sipping Busch Light, to look back on a nine-year old draft and make fun of it, but I just can't help myself. I really can't imagine there's been a worse draft in the league's history.


First, let's check out the top 7:

1. Kenyon Martin (New Jersey). Career highlight: has a tattoo of lips on his neck.
2. Stromile Swift (Vancouver). "Stromile of the Decade" (Stromile Monthly, December, 2009)
3. Darius Miles (LA Clippers). Let's go Clips! Let's go Clips! Let's go Clips!
4. Marcus Fizer (Chicago). Greatest Fizer in NBA history.
5. Mike Miller (Orlando). Best-looking white guy ever taken in the top 5.



6. Dermarr Johnson (Atlanta). Similiar players on basketballreference.com: Bosjtan Nachbar. Let's go Hawks! Let's go Hawks! Let's go Hawks!
7. Chris Mihm (Cleveland).

One more time: that's CHRIS MIHM.

The worst of the rest

* The Clips continued to impress, taking Keyon Dooling at No. 10 and Marko Jaric with the first pick of the second round (30th overall).

* The Bulls had five draft picks in the two rounds. Here's what they did with them:

No. 4 - Fizer (above)
No. 8 - Jamal Crawford (decent pick)
No. 24 - Dalibor Bagaric (not even a good pick if this was the Croatian draft)
Nos 32, 33, 34 - A.J. Guyton, Jake Voskuhl and Khalid ElAmin (yes, the Bulls had three consecutive picks at the start of the second round and managed to screw up all three. Incredible.)

* These were 7 of the final 10 picks of the first round:

Craig Claxton - No. 20 (Philly)
Donnell Harvey - No. 22 (Dallas)
Iakovos Tsakalidis - No. 25 (Phoenix)
Mamadou NDiaye - No. 26 (Denver)
Primoz Brezec - No. 27 (Indiana)
Erick Barkley - No. 28 (Portland)
Mark Madsen - No. 29 (LA Lakers)

Mygoodnessgracious.

Now THAT'S a clean fireplace




Three guys came by the apartment today and cleaned the fireplace. By "cleaned" I don't mean Mary Poppins, chimney sweep-style; it was three guys with a wet-dry vac.

I've got a couple questions:

1. Three guys are needed to vaccum my fireplace?
2. It's June 24; it's 97 degrees outside; couldn't this have waited until November?

This Week in Gross

We're starting a new segment here at ILTCSC called This Week in Gross.

This week: Ruby Tuesday salad bar




"We have a sneeze guard!"

That's fantastic. Do you have an I Wiped My Nose With My Hand and Then Grabbed the Ranch Dressing Ladle guard?

How about an Old Woman Skin Flakes guard?

Maybe you can check in the walk-in freezer for a Six-Year Old Whose Never Washed His Hands guard.

You have none of those items? Then why don't you go ahead and keep the sunflower seed kernels and the raisins. I'm going to eat something that I'm pretty sure only two people - the cook and the server - touched.

I didn't circle the restaurant shaking everyone's hand and then licked my own hand after each shake, so why would I eat from this salad bar?


Extra point: A mirror is provided so everyone can see how disgusting they are.

Ken Harrelson strikes again

I just wanted to watch the Whitesox and Tigers for a few innings; try to keep my cat

from eating this paper clip



and Ken Harrelson had to speak:

"The errors of this day and age are so much more magnified than the errors of yesteryear."

[Rambling about pitch counts...]

"On a scale of 1-to-10 (errors) used to be a '2'. Now, it's like an '8'."


Why don't you snack on that one for a little while.

Cards steal 31 bases in six innings against Minnesota

Andy Hawkins

I posted this on my old Yankees blog, but I think it's worth another look.


Perhaps the 12 worst days of Andy Hawkins' life

We all remember what happened July 1, 1990: Andy Hawkins throws eight no-hit innings at Comiskey Park and loses, 4-0 to the Whitesox. Sad day for all of us, but especially for me, as the basement in my house had flooded the night before. I didn't even have a basement closet to cry in.

I don't mean to bring up old, horrifying memories; encourage you to remember Stump Merrill....but take a look at Hawkins' two starts after the lost no-hitter:


July 6: the Yanks lose game one of a doubleheader to the Twins, 2-0 in 12 innings (we couldn't stop Gene Larkin: 3-for-4, RBI). What you might not remember is, Hawkins went 11 2/3 innings before allowing run-scoring singles to Brian Harper and Larkin.

11 2/3 innings!

I think it took Jaret Wright five starts in 2006 to get to 11 2/3 innings.

July 12: Hawkins gives up eight earned in 4 1/3 innings in an 8-0 loss. Whitesox pitcher Melido Perez, later a Yankee, throws a no-hitter in six rain-shortened innings.


Quick recap:


Start No. 1 - Throws no-hitter; loses 4-0

Start No. 2 - Pitches 11 2/3 innings, allows two runs with two outs in the 12th inning; loses 2-0

Start No. 3 - Allows eight runs in 4 1/3 innings; loses 8-0; opposing pitcher throws a no-hitter

ILTCSC re-visits an old friend




"OK....this is off the record, but I probably find Tim Duncan as boring as you find Tim Duncan. Mrs. Duncan found him boring, too. He has a little trouble getting up and down the court, he doesn't relate very well to the power forwards of this generation and his ears are terrible. But that doesn't relieve you from your responsbility for this material. I'm still waiting for a feature story from some of you. Listen, Gregg Popovich is not joking! This is his job!"
