Last Call is kind of like Blogkakke, only on PCP, LSD and ludes. Fucking ludes man. Instead of just being a random link dump, it’s a place to congregate with fellow like minded sports fans, alcoholics and amateur comedians. So come on in, kick your shoes off and crack a beer; then regale us with a witty joke, bitch about that local sports team or ask gally if running over a gypsy is the best way to lose weight, or are there more practical options. If you have something you’d like to see here, our contact info is over on the right and there’s always the tip line, tips @ thegallyblog.com
I’m quite behind today so I’ll be adding links as this thing goes on.
Musical Interlude:
Linkage:
Purple Jesus Diaries: PJD has big news for you all. Yes he still loves you, but he’s taking his other home to a new place and with a new network. Continue to support the guy would ya?
NY Mag: See folks, offensive and not terribly great writing can earn you a living in this world. Drew Magary has now added NY Mag to his writing stable. This is a piece that I might have to take to task later, but have your own opinions on it.
Steel Clink Alcatraz: The Greatest things that Danger Guerrero has ever seen, episode 3. No, not like that Star Wars Episode 3, but rather something good that comes in threes.
Daddys Sugar Ball: The AVP is closing it’s doors for the rest of the year. As in volleyball not Aliens Vs. Predators.
Sound Cloud: I’ve been hearing about this all day, but I’ve finally found it. Justin Bieber slowed down 800% sounds like crazy mind blowing music. Think Sigur Ros mixed with Massive Attack.
Film Drunk: NATALIE PORTMAN, MILA KUNIS SOMETHING SOMETHING LESBIAN BALLERINA SEX.
Film Drunk: I don’t generally link a site twice in the same link dump, but you ALL REALLY HAVE TO check out the FilmDrunk podcast. They call it the frotcast, but whatever they call it it’s sex for your ears. Good, good sex.

Okay, that angel picture made me laugh. I’m such a six year old kid sometimes.
You can thank Brendan from WWTDD for that one
Yay, more breathless coverage of Farvaro. Looks like another good day for a SportsCenter boycott.
Fuck that guy
By the way, Gally. I’m almost caught up with all my DVR-ed USA shows from my vacation, so we can get back to our weekly TV dialogue.
Sounds good man
Wait, so Lou Gehrig didn’t die from Lou Gehrig’s disease? Does he get a refund?
Just finished Gangs of New York. Wasn’t that really impressed. Daniel Day Lewis was good, but other than that, meh.
It really was just like any of Scorsese’s mafia films, but with Irish instead of Italians.
Understood – substitute “aye” for “aaaay”.
I haven’t watched it, but I have a feeling that MST3K style, it might be fantastic.
I just glanced at the NYMag TiWood is finished. I see that Drew referenced putting average to show that Tiger’s finished (among other things). That’s like referencing runs as a mark of a good baseball player.
I forget what it’s called, but some MIT people came up with a new putting scoring system since the current ones are both horrible – putts/round & putting average (it’s called putts gained). It maps out from where you take a putt and compares you to everyone else who has taken the same shot – and Tiger rocks at it.

by the way, I realize I’m completely ignoring the whole thesis, but using the putting average to demonstrate anything is flawed. Not to mention the small sample size that was used.
Yeah, no kidding. Tiger also has the lowest aggregate score of any golfer who played in all 4 majors this year.
I dunno, it wouldn’t surprise me to learn he has problems with his putz.
Gally, I’m not sure if you get TSN (Canadian ESPN) or watch women’s tennis, but Jankovic & Benesova is a pretty decent looking (and played) match so far.
I’m at work right now, so you’ll hav to keep me informed.
I guess writing a non-breathless piece that said, “Tiger Woods isn’t playing as well as he usually does this year. These things happen,” probably wouldn’t get me on SportsCenter or major magazines. Viva hyperbole!
It works for Rick Reilly. Scratch that, Posnanski would and could write that.
And remember to say fuck a lot.
And fucking poop
That I’m very good at. Giving a flying fuck about Tiger Woods I’m not very good at.
Does a fucking Tiger poop in the Woods?
The chick he banged in the ass probably does.
This thread now officially needs a #fecesafterdark tag
Married to the Sea is the balls.
That dude looks like Norm McDonald.
