Fritzy All A-Rousey, Seton Shooting Low, WOP on the Line

WOP On The Line 
We have a little while to wait, but there is a Wheel of Punishment bet on the line with the national title game.  If Indiana or Duke wins the national title, Dan has to take Paulie to dinner and Seton spins the wheel in place of DP.  If neither Indiana nor Duke win the national title, Paulie has to spin the wheel, but DP does not need to take Seton to dinner, even though he probably will since he’s closest to Seton of all the Danettes.  Is Seton adding up points
for 2013 MVD?  You bet he is!

Seton Shooting Low

Seton has been taking shots at the boss lately.  In defending his position, he landed a low blow to the fellow Danettes saying DP already has three yes men, he doesn’t need a fourth.  Once the newness of DP’s surgery wore off, Seton’s been taking advantage of the wounded like a lion attacking a gazelle with a broken leg. 





Fritzy All A-Rousey 

MMA fighter Ronda Rousey, UFC Bantamweight Champion, was booked on the Thursday show and hours before coming on Fritzy was already in creepville.  Her pre-fight preparation and the fact that she could physically dominate him put one Todd Fritz’s mind into fantasyland.  Female to male sports domination became the poll and studio question of the day.  Poll takers were fine with it, as well as Seton – sort of, if it was his wife taking him in soccer yes – otherwise not so sure, Paulie – Jennifer Lawrence much more superior archer, McLovin – Rebecca Lobo in basketball no problems and Fritzy – any woman could beat him in anything and he wouldn’t mind.  Dan, he has issues with a woman being able to beat him.  By the way, Dan doesn’t care to watch women fighting in any form.  It’s just not enjoyable for him.  For Dan, a woman doesn’t have to prove that she is tough.  For anyone who has been through childbirth, you will understand that point of view.  

Wheel! Of! Punishment!, Doggie Bag, Home Depot Helper

Home Depot Helper
Dan did a live read for the Home Depot Gift Center. Of the options there are: Weekender, Sports Fan, Decorator, Entertainer, Outdoor Enthusiast and Do It Yourselfer. Dan didn’t quite get it right for the gift package assignments for the Danettes. Maybe these choices would work better:

The Entertainer for Paulie - college campus food truck survival items: finger wipes, antacids, bib

The Sports Fan for Seton - all Yankees gear for the off season: Jeter skull cap, Jeter gloves, Jeter scarf

The Weekender for McLovin – come visit me basket: baby wipes, Mr. Mom manuals and a picture of DP

The Do It Yourselfer for Fritzy – Mountain Dew, Chinese food gift card and those special items needed while watching Cinemax

More wipes, gloves and lubricants

Doggie Bag From SI Sportsman Award
Dan was the on stage interviewer for LeBron James at the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year Award Show. Prior to going on stage he and LeBron shook hands just after Lebron had applied moisturizer and still had a gob of it on his hand. To get rid of it, Dan did a bro pat/hug on LeBron’s back to try to get rid of it. Shortly after that Dan shook Coach Krzyzewski (how do you get sha-sheh-ski out of those letters?) hand who must have wondered if Dan’s hand was so moist and clammy from pre-show nerves. Coach K did ask who wrote Dan’s questions for him because they were so good. Our DP doesn’t need a writer! Although he had index cards in his hands, from what was shown, he didn’t use them.

Cards in hand but not needed

Last bite:
Lebron has a photo shopped pic of him guarding Michael Jordan as his phone’s screen saver. Think Jordan would still have scored?

Poor Paulie
We were reminded in the open that Dan has a new goal: for Paulie to have fun in the show. Real, gut busting fun. Paulie’s fun is watching other people have fun and saying "That’s funny." He just can’t enjoy himself on the show. Who says that’s funny instead of laughing if they’re having fun? Now the sound effects that Paulie did to Seton’s dorm room story….that’s funny. We did see Paulie do Seton’s leg bouncing, thigh slapping move trying to release the joy. Did it work? TBD

Sad and serious, can Paulie ever enjoy the DP Show experience?

Stat Timing
Stat of the Day is not as easy as it looks, hitting the post and getting in all your stat info. Dan tried to do a stat of the day but tangled the timing of the stat with the stat theme music. He was given a mulligan and did it again later in the show without music and was…ok. It just lacked the drama that it could have had if it was done to the music right the first time. Maybe they should have rehearsed. NEVER! Better to leave SOTD to the amateurs.

I have more words to say and here comes the post....
Dang! Missed it!

Wheel! Of! Punishment!
McLovin’s look at the beginning of the show was rough. He had a Bill Hader’s Stephon look and during his box appearance tried to mimic the mannerisms. Maybe he was going for the Edward from the Twilight series look. Either way, both characters have a creep factor to them. After the first break in the second hour his hair was fully dried and normal again. Must have used Dan’s shower today. So how did the wheel spin turn out? He can not cut or dye his hair until the NFL draft, which is April 26-28. He’ll be looking a little Rob Ryan-esk by that time. Possibly we’ll be getting a wheel of punishment theme song from Oderus, full name Oderus Urungus, from Gwar to go with the skull and cross bones on the wheel’s center.

Will McLovin comply with the Wheel Of Punishment?

Programming Note:
December 17^th, Jim Parsons from The Big Bang Theory is expected to be in the NYC man cave for the day.
