Because I let you guys down by doing a couple of repeat Carnival Princesses this week I decided to go back and find someone who hasn't won the award yet and since Michelle Trachtenberg was nice enough to go to some store opening looking all good I figured she's as good a choice as any. Yeah, real strict requirements to win this bad boy. Happy Friday! View this post in its entirety at EpicCarnival.com.

Marv Albert, 50 Cent Scuffle Backstage at Jimmy Kimmel Live

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 15:21:04 -0500

It doesn’t get much weirder than this — the Los Angeles Times is reporting that Marv Albert and 50 Cent (yes, the real announcer and real rapper) got in a fight (yes, with fists and punches and stuff) backstage while appearing on the Jimmy Kimmel Live show.

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:31:00 -0500

Well there's a title I never thought I'd write. Apparently there was a bit of a scuffle at the Jimmy Kimmel Show that included Marv Albert versus 50 Cent and his posse. Via the LA Times....As Albert arrived, with an entourage of one, TNT public relations specialist Jeff Pomeroy, there was a sudden scuffle when a multitude of 50 Cent protectors seemed unfamiliar with Albert. There was shouting ("It's Marv Albert," yelled a Kimmel show guard, a pronouncement that seemed to...

Bar Refaeli should always be in lingerie

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:30:00 -0500

About the only thing missing from the post I did yesterday over at Guyism.com with 30 supermodels blowing me kisses (they were too blowing them at me) was the visage of 2009 SI Swimsuit Issue cover model Ms. Bar Refaeli. And now I rectify that for you, my dear Epic Carnival reader. And why was Ms. Refaeli not in the photos with the 30 other girls yesterday?

50 Cent's Entourage Are Not Fans Of Marv Albert

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:30:00 -0500

Hey, did you know 50 Cent and Marv Albert were guests on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Wednesday night? Well, they were. If you saw it, I'm sure you thought it was underwhelming. But there was one part of the show that was surely entertaining. You just never saw it. It went on backstage before the show even started. That's where 50 Cent's entourage got a little physical with Mr. Albert. As Albert arrived, with an entourage of one, TNT public relati...

Sure, Marv Albert’s street cred ain’t what it used to be, but does that mean he needs to start mixing it up with 50 Cent’s posse? That seems to be what happened backstage at Wednesday’s taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live, when 50 Cent’s entourage didn’t recognize Albert and somehow a rigamarole ensued with words going back [...]

I’m not exactly a proponent of Lady Gaga, but I did spend two days this fall with “Poker Face” stuck in my head non-stop.

We take you now to Georgia, where cheerleaders hoist bible verses at public school football games, and when you play pickup basketball, it had damned well be shirts vs. shirts. Chattooga High School officials recently censored the school’s yearbook, excising pages which depicted male students playing basketball while not wearing shirts. Some parents and students are [...]

30 Rock Skewers Around The Horn

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 13:29:45 -0500

I have long since tired of Around The Horn. Evidently one of the writers on 30 Rock agrees, given the video above. (This was one of two mentions for the fictional Sports Shout show, but this one with Tracy Morgan was far better than the first.)

The Mullet is a Lifestyle

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 06:00:00 -0500

Found this little gem on the NFL page and it reminded me of a funny moment in my life. Jared Allen has been a fantastic teammate of mine the last two years in Hawaii and it has been a pleasure spending a couple weeks around such a lifestyle. It’s also probably best for me that he lives 1000 miles away from me, as his mullet bravado is addictive.

Last February I sat with beer in hand around a second rate Hawaii hotel table celebrating a personal feat of nothingness in a NFC victory in the Pro Bowl. (I was the only player without a stat, well, I had 1 drop if that counts.) I couldn’t have been happier as I sat with the motley connection of Jared and my friends and family. We ate, drank and laughed, and while the night continued on, it seemed no one existed around us.

What we began to notice through the debauchery was that there was other people were around us and our party may have been somewhat of a show. Maybe not so much myself, but Jared seemed concerned with the onlookers. Before anyone could say anything a ketchup bottle had left Jared’s hand and was on a direct course to the adjacent table. This wasn’t your average paper plane like lob, the bottle, although a little wobbly, was on a line drive trajectory. Sooner than Jared’s movements caught the eye of anyone at the other table the red bottle drove into the back of the biggest guys head, shocking him forward and then to his feet.

Now in my opinion the struck man’s analysis of the situation was telling him it was best to sit back down as he quickly noticed Jared’s willingness to throw down worn directly on the back of his head. From that moment on I have never questioned the power of the mullet. Now as I watch the wild-man rope tying imaginary cows multiple times every Sunday I couldn’t have more respect for anyone else playing the game. Jared Allen is an awesome football player, one of the coolest guys I’ve hung out with and more importantly, he is a complete badass.

Marat Safin Says Agassi Is "Stupid", Should "Shut Up"

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 11:00:55 -0500

Tennis-playing dude Marat Safin isn't exactly broken up over revelations that fellow competitor Andre Agassi was addicted to crank. If he feels so bad about it now, Safin says, then why not give back all that money he didn't win? Safin told L'Equipe that if Agassi is trying to clear his conscience because he lied to the ATP to get out of a failed drug test, then wouldn't it make more sense to give back the money that the ATP allowed him to win by not banning him from the spor...
