Today is a sad day for Minnesota sports, 4 years ago the Timberwolves were in the western conference finals, the Vikings were favorites to win the Superbowl, the Twins were a strong small ball team with a ton of potential, and the Wild were just coming into there own as a sleeper team coming from the Western Conference. But today looking at that, the Vikings...if they win 6 games this year I'll be amazed, the Twins are in a rough patch with no hope to keep perennial gold glover Torii Hunter after this season, the Wild are the exception, they still are that sleeper team that has a chance. But now that Kevin Garnett, one of the most genuinely nice people in sports has been traded away, I give the wolves a 22-60 season next year.
On the other side, I do wish Kevin Garnett the best with the Celtics and they are now my instant favorites for winning the Eastern Conference, he stuck out the past 3 years here that have been just dreadful, so good luck KG, win one for Minnesota.

Dexter
Season 2 preair episode 1
Unfortunately you won't be able to watch the rest of the season until October. But it should be enough to wet your appetite and get you psyched for the new season.

Top Gear Polar Challenge July 25th!!!
In Top Gear’s most ambitious and arduous challenge to date Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond attempt to race from Northern Canada to the North Pole, 450 miles away. The terrain in between is some of the toughest on earth - a mix of mountainous land masses and jagged sea ice where temperatures can drop to a mind-numbing minus 65 degrees Celcius (minus 85 degrees Fahrenheit). Jeremy and James will be driving a specially adapted pick up truck whilst Richard will be travelling on something a little less high tech - a sled pulled by a team of ten Canadian Inuit Dogs.

Tranformers: The Summer Movie To End All Summer Movies
First let me give you a quick recap of the movie.
Ok, so thats not the real movie, but is quit funny. (Good ole PBF)
Anyways, your liking of this movie is dependent on 1 big criteria.....can you shut off your brain and just enjoy the action. If you can't, then you're going to hate this film, there are moments when logic seems to fail everyone, physics seems to be thrown out the window, and scenes appear rushed. One such example is the death of a certain character I believe the words that Optimus says are "We shall miss our valued friend, but we have made new friends". And thats it, thats all thats said, seems pretty cold, even for a robot.
So if thats the bad, whats the good....EVERYTHING ELSE. THE ACTION IN THIS MOVIE MAKES SPIDERMAN 3 LOOK LIKE WOMENS GOLF! Plus there is a new hot piece of ass in town, her name is (play this when looking at pics) Megan Fox. The basic premise of the movie is that some kickass robots want to get this cube, but these other kickass robots want to stop them from getting this cube. Some action takes place, then Megan Fox (gulp), then more action, followed by more Megan Fox (down boy), then fucktastic action, then Megan Fox (thats it I'm going to polish the one eyed monster), then some even more fucktastic action, followed by an open ending, since they've already given the go ahead for 2 more movies. To put it bluntly the action alone in this movie will give you a chubby, then Megan fox is there just to make sure you have to go change your pants every 20 minutes. This is a movie made for Michael Bay to make, its not going to win any Oscars for its acting (although Shia Lebouf did a very good job), or for its story, but who gives a fuck, ITS ROBOTS KICKING THE SHIT OUT OF OTHER ROBOTS! For a popcorn eating summer movie its a 10 out of 10.
