Mayne Street, Part 4

Here’s the 4th installment of the ESPN web series, Mayne Street. In this episode, Kenny has to conduct a major interview in a clown suit. Watch and you’ll see why. Hmmmm. I’m not seeing the humor in this one. Promising start, but not very good at the end.

First Promo for "The L Word", Season 6

Here’s your first promo for “The L Word”, Season 6. Unfortunately, it’s the last season of the show and each season has always gone by so quickly. I’ll definitely miss the series. I can’t get enough of Mia Kirshner. Jennifer Beals is always hot.

Through all of the BCS news, I almost forgot that the third webisode of Mayne Street was out today. This installment deals with Kenny playing poker with his boss, Evan Mintz, SportsCenter anchor Neil Everett and SportsCenter anchor Chris McKendry. Kind of funny. I did laugh out loud a few times.

BREAKING NEWS: ESPN Signs with BCS, But You Knew That Already

Since I’ve received the press release, I don’t need to monitor the conference call.

And it includes digital and international rights. ESPN and BCS Reach Four-Year […]
