What’s Not Lame: Gladamania, Brother
October 3rd, 2007 by NextRound
Variety reported today that two of the things we loved most in our childhood will soon be joining forces to create a Voltron of awesomeness. Yeah, that’s right, NBC is relaunching “American Gladiators” as a mid-season replacement and they’ve signed Terry Hogan himself to host.
We were indefensibly excited when we first heard “American Gladiators” was making a comeback, and that was way before we knew 24-inch Pythons would be involved. You wouldn’t believe the massive hetero rager we’ve worked up now.
Think about how potentially tremendous this could be. Jobbers versus Gladiators. Powerball. Joust. Hang Tough. THE ELIMINATOR. Singular names like Nitro, Malibu, Thunder, Genesis, and Lace. Hulk reminding us to say our prayers and take our vitamins and referring to every person on the show–regardless of gender– as “Brother”.
Our Tivo is already set.
Now if only NBC could bring back “Knight Rider”. That would be perfect. Life would be euphoric. Hey, wait a second…

I think the Indians at +150 are a joke.
The Yankees haven’t seen CC in 3 years. I am definitely getting in at +107 for Game 1 against Wang. Wang can only pitch in Yankee Stadium. The Indians are the best home team in baseball. They should be -122, not +107.
Booth, thoughts?
