Don't be a dick...get a Dick Towel for him for the holidays




So I recently watched an episode of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" because I have been hearing such a buzz about it. In this episode they talked about a novelty item called a Dick Towel and it turns out the guys made an equally cheesy informercial about what it is. With further investigation it turns out you can actually buy the dick towels at www.dicktowel.com for $19.99.

I don't know about you but this, to me, is the perfect gift for any guy who gets off on being patently offensive, has no social skills, was in a fraternity, appeared on Real World or Jersey Shore or wears Ed Hardy.

Get me one while you are at it. Read more!

Mike Vallely still kicks ASS...hockey stick brawl at Ducks game



So growing up I was really into skateboarding. One of the guys that I always revered for his insane ability to go BIG and not give a shit if he falls was Mike Vallely. He always had the biggest ollies and craziest tricks...oh and he liked to fight. I met him at a demo once when I was 13 and he was one of those figures you couldn't help but like, fear and hate at the same time but always respected and revered.

Being in the business I am in, I have befriended Mike through some email exchanges and he is a really cool cat. Finally got to meet him at the Maloof Money Cup some months back and loved watching him kill it.

Anyways...some of you might have seen the video of two guys fighting over a hockey stick at a recent Ducks game...I just came to find out that it was Mike (an avid hockey fan) who was at the game with his daughter (who the stick was meant for) when this fat drunk tub of shit tried to pry it from her hands as Scott Niedermayer handed it to her. Like any good dad, Mike put up his dukes and became the star of yet another viral video on YouTube (Google Mike's name and make sure you watch the video where he kicks the crap out of a handful of frat dicks at once in a parking lot)...of course, he was the only one arrested.

Congrats Mike for being "Dad of the Year" and being classic. I sure as shit feel bad for any kid that tries to date that girl.

I need to get him in the gym with DellaGrotte and Gurgel...get him into a promotion fight with Jason Ellis or ???

Observations from Gold's Gym Venice at 5 a.m.- Here we go again.

Haven't done one of these in a while...

Gold's Gym 4:45 a.m.

1) SO not cool that I was out last night until 1:30 celebrating a former colleague's birthday and I still woke up at 4:30 to go to the gym. Who's the asshole now?
2) Even less cooler that it was about 40 degrees when I left the house to run to the gym...in shorts and a short sleeve tee.
3) Really cool of you to hold the door for me upon entering the gym dude but I was 50 yards away from you. What are you super polite guy?
4) I am pretty damn enthralled/creeped out by the little bespectacled guy with the big buffed out/thuggish trainer/friend that just walk around the gym while the trainer shoves the little man from behind about every 5 steps. WEIRD.
5) Hey girl that used to obsessively hog/own spot number one on the elliptical machine...good to see you moved on to the treadmills but you still don't own the fucking place. Stop opening doors and hogging fans. It is Gold's Gym not OCD exercise girl with an apple bottom that wont go away's Gym.
6) Great to meet you today short stocky guy...not great to listen to you talk about everything and the kitchen sink for 45 minutes. I missed my cardio workout by being polite.
7) Why does the water coming out of the new water fountain taste sweet?
8) All that hoopla with signs and big smiles promoting "Gym Improvements for You" just to put in new rubber mats on the floor and partially paint the gym a vomit gold color?
9) Good looking people, still and never will, visit the gym before 9 a.m.

Just signed Kru Mark DellaGrotte


RPRT is stoked to have just signed legendary Muay Thai trainer, Boston icon and all around good cat Mark DellaGrotte to the company roster/family. Mark has been part of the family for about a year as he has been the main trainer to Jorge Gurgel but today he agreed (I forced him with a reverse double lindy neck choke) to work with our company. Mark has been seen on Spike's Ultimate Fighter and The Discovery Channel and with us behind him you will see him a lot more...

Rock.

Crap.

Pitch day...plop suffers


Today is the big pitch I have been working towards for a year. My partner and I are finally taking a finished demo reel/mini pilot for a project dubbed "My Three Sons" today to MTV (see post from about a year ago where I went to Hawaii for 20 hours to film it). Based on the Florence surf family who live on the North Shore of Oahu, My Three Sons would be one hell of a passion project to sell and work on. We are partnered with production megalith Reveille on this one so I feel really confident we will find a buyer...

On another note just put another pitch together today involving some other super grommets I rep...looking like 2010 should be a decent year (since 2009 was such a steaming pile that should be a welcome change).

Wish the Plop luck and we will think good thoughts about you and your hamster hotel idea.
