- When I saw Alice Cooper’s quote, I thought it was too good to be true, and someone made it up. I’m wrong. those are his words.
- I’ve been reading a lot about all the gimmicks NBC plans on using to broadcast the Olympics. This one seems a bit cheap:
- “The network even plans to deploy five heart-rate monitors among the parents of athletes. The results will be shown onscreen as moms and dads watch their kids compete — something that test audiences have loved.”
- Caitlin Clark’s first WNBA game will be in Arlington against the Dallas Wings on May 3rd.
- I saw some videos of how Real Madrid uses a high-tech underground greenhouse to maintain its pitch (soccer field). They store the pitch in MiddleEarth when it isn’t being used, and it’s kept in perfect condition with fully automated air conditioning, irrigation, mowers, and LED lighting. It really is amazing and puts our stadium to shame. I need to find a documentary about it.
These side-by-side pictures really give you an appreciation for the sheer scale of the project.
It's an incredible piece of engineering.

- Scorsese Eyes Frank Sinatra Biopic With Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence
- Scorsese did the Howard Hughes biopic. Hughes is a huge fascination of mine, and while Scorsese made a great film, I don’t think he and DiCaprio did the man justice. So, I don’t have high hopes that the Sinatra film will do Frank justice, though I bet it will be artsy.
- A lot of people believe, rightfully, that Ronan Farrow’s father is actually Frank Sinatra and not Woody Allen. What I think Scorsese should do is cast Farrow as Sinatra for some scenes in the film.
- Now, that’s how you crush a ball.
