I have to give the hat tip on this one to Mrs. J-Dub because I am apparently one of about four people in America who don’t watch “Game of Thrones.” But Mrs J-Dub does, which is how she caught the similarities between Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner and actor Kristofer Hivju, who plays Tormund Giantsbane on the HBO series about a bunch of families who really seem to enjoy killing each other.
Now that Turner just won the final vote to get into Tuesday’s All-Star game, maybe he and Kenley Jansen can put on some fur and helmets with horns and go settle the family business with Dodger fans.

I watched “Over the Top” last night. Don’t ask me why. It was 90 minutes of my life I’d like to have back.
That being said, both these guys look like tame versions of one of the arm-wrestling dudes Sly had to take down on his way to arm-wrestling glory.
Meet me half waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!

I said it on your page, and I’ll say it again here. Watching “Over the Top” is a cry for help.
For purpoise of full disclosure, as I type this, I’m watching a re-run of “Porky’s II – The Next Day”
