| Get old school with a varsity jacket this Spring Posted: 07 Apr 2011 06:53 PM PDT  Image from NY Times Varsity jackets have always been a badge of honor for young men. It was a symbol of athletic prowess, the ultimate test of adolescent manliness. Back when I was in high school, our varsity jackets created venerable gangs, a sort of West Side Story in the suburbs. We took our colors and our jackets seriously. Because of that, I’m conflicted with the recent explosion of varsity and baseball jackets in the men’s style world. I’m not going to lie, I love the look of baseball jackets and the general style of varsity jackets. A lot of designers have taken the usually fuller cut jacket and slimmed it down, keeping in line with recent trends. But something about someone wearing an actual letter jacket without earning it feels fake to me. That’s just me. It also means I won’t grab a varsity or baseball-inspired jacket to help me transition from Spring to Summer. Check out some of my favorite pieces from around the interwebs and make your own decision. These jackets aren’t cheap, just like they weren’t when you were in high school (I paid $400+ for mine). Just remember how they made you feel. That feeling of power and excellence. Take hold of your youth and grab one this season. Who knows, maybe it’ll inspire you to hit the gym and see how many balls you can hit out of the park again. *shrug* Check out my 3 favorite offerings from this season! Brooks Brothers Baseball Jacket – $168
GANT Rugger Nylon Varsity Jacket – $265

| Lindsay Ellingson deserves more promotion Posted: 07 Apr 2011 01:00 PM PDT  Seriously... we want more... As much as I love Candice, Alessandra, Adriana and the rest of the main Victoria’s Secret models, it’s always nice to see some of the new blood like Lindsay Ellingson doing their best to make their mark. A very sexy mark. Lindsay really is being seriously underutilized by The Company. How do I know this? Because this is only the second standalone piece I’ve done on her and if a model poses in VS lingerie or bikinis you can guarantee you’ll see it here. That’s how.         | ||||||||||||||||
| VIDEO: Sonic to celebrate 20 years, place your bets on the horrible gimmick this time Posted: 07 Apr 2011 12:30 PM PDT Sonic Generations is set to land later this year to celebrate the hedgehog’s birthday, and you just know it will disappoint somehow. Here’s the teaser trailer… The thing with Sonic these days is how we all know his next game will to blow, the trick is figuring out how and to what degree (though in the case of the latter, it’s often a lot). Very little info is presented above, though one possible theory could be how the player can chose to play as old school Sonic in addition to the blue hedgehog that he has become. Maybe switching between the two, depending on the level, or maybe even simultaneously, a la how Tails used to follow Sonic around, though maybe something more advance that that? Could be some multiplayer, cooperative affair, a la Knuckles Chaotix? But this is Sonic we’re talking about, that’s way too easy. Either the big gimmick has yet to revealed, much like how Sega was actually proud of the fact that he turned into a werewolf (sorry, “werehog”), enough to actually advertise it, or simply discovered when playing through the inevitable wretchedly piece together train-wreck of a game. Like Sonic making out with a dead human girl whose like 14, or how we discover Shadow the Hedgehog, Sonic’s gun toting cousin from East LA, is supposed to be the cure to cancer, literally (and no, I am not making this up, go ahead and beat Sonic Adventure 2 to see that I’m correct). My favorite Sonic-related memory was when I was at a press function for Sonic’s HD debut on the Xbox 360 and PS3, just called Sonic The Hedgehog (that’s the one where he swaps spit with a human btw). I assumed the reigns of Sonic first, and was on my best behavior, so I wasn’t ultra annoying about the wacky camera angles that caused me to die literally every 3 seconds. But when it came time to play through the stage that belonged to the new character in the franchise, Silver The Hedgehog, was told that he had “a mysterious connection” to Sonic. Right then and there, I could not help myself: “Let me guess… he’s from the future and is actually Sonic’s son, who goes back in time to kill his dad for doing something he did, which was supposed to be something good, but in fact created a nightmare apocalyptic landscape that Silver and his people must endure, but we eventually discover that Robotnik has been brainwashing Silver or something like that. Right?” The Sega rep just looked at me. And since then, they haven’t returned my phone calls. I have no idea if I was on the money, but I’m assuming I wasn’t very far from the mark. | ||||||||||||||||
| Heidi Watney is disgusted with the Red Sox… and chicken ‘n waffles Posted: 07 Apr 2011 12:25 PM PDT After losing yet again this afternoon to the lowly Cleveland Indians, the Boston Red Sox ran their abysmal record to 0-6. They’ve already eclipsed their longest losing streak of last year and with the New York Yankees coming into town this weekend, things get could even uglier. Thankfully, there is NESN hottie reporter Heidi Watney to cheer Red Sox nation up. That is, until she tried some fried chicken ‘n waffles from Progressive Stadium. Video via mocksession.com: I realize that Watney probably isn’t that familiar with southern comfort food, but asking a Clevelander how he came up with the idea for chicken & waffles? Um, honey, where you been? That fried goodness has been around for as long as I can remember. You need to travel a bit south and hit up some diners every once in awhile. Or maybe you’re just that disgusted with how the Red Sox are playing to start the season. Or maybe, just maybe, you didn’t want to see those two Indians fans making out. Probably a combination of all of the above. | ||||||||||||||||
| I don’t fight with anyone as much as I fight with Ranveer: Anushka Sharma Posted: 06 Apr 2011 10:48 PM PDT
"We have a relationship outside of work. We hang out, go out for dinners and watch films. But we are poles apart as people," said Anushka adding, "I don’t fight with anyone as much as I fight with him. Strangely life keeps throwing us together all the time, from being in films to performing at award functions… I feel very protective about him and I am sure he feels that way about me." The two will be seen together once again in 'Ladies V/s Ricky Bahl’ which is set to release in December. The movie has Ranveer playing a con-man who flirts with girls. Other female stars who will be seen along with Ranveer in this movie include Aditi Sharma, Dipannita Sharma and Priyanka Chopra’s cousin Parineeti Chopra. Parineeti was in the marketing department of Yashraj Films before her ride in Bollywood
