February 21, 2005Man of the House; How EmbarrassingBy Zach NeumannI don’t know if any of you have been following this, but on Friday the Burnt Orange is going to be looking pretty bad. Why you ask? Because the administration decided that it would be in the best interests of the University to allow Tommy Lee Jones and Cedric the Entertainer to film a movie centered around the UT cheerleading squad. Though I haven’t done much plot research, I get the impression that the story is as follows: 1. UT cheerleaders witness a crime (a murder I think) 2. They are being threatened because they are witnesses 3. A gruff, yet kind hearted Tommy Lee Jones is assigned to protect them 4. Hilarity ensues. I know this provides publicity for UT, but at what cost? Posted by Zach Neumann at February 21, 2005 09:22 AM | TrackBack

Fucking A. Posted by: thomas h at February 21, 2005 09:33 AMWhile Tommy Lee Jones is there the University Dems should hit him up for some payola. As I recall, he was a big Kerry contributor in 2004. He contributed with--as I recall--a Marshall, Texas address of all things. Posted by: Vince Leibowitz at February 21, 2005 01:59 PMVince, for cryin' out loud, he was Al Gore's college room-mate! He better be! http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000169/bio Posted by: Jim D at February 21, 2005 02:27 PMWhile it's a stupid movie, look how many crappy movies have been done about Harvard. Their reputation is sure hurting from RedMan and MethodMan in "How High" isn't it? While it'd be better if the movie were not made, it's not that big of a deal. Posted by: john j at February 21, 2005 02:45 PMYeah, Jim. I knew that. Why I didn't think about it is another story. What can I say. It's a holiday, I'm off from work, and the brain's just not functioning properly. Posted by: Vince Leibowitz at February 21, 2005 04:27 PMYou might enjoy Pete's preemptive review of this flick. Posted by: Charles Kuffner at February 21, 2005 06:58 PMThe sad thing is that I'm probably going to go see this movie because there will be nothing else good out at the time. Sigh, at least it has cheerleaders. Posted by: Nate at February 21, 2005 07:29 PMIt is worth it to see an O-Who tshirt on tv ten times a day. Posted by: matth at February 22, 2005 12:08 AMdoes anyone know where to buy tho O-Who tshits...i live in dallas and i cant find one :( Posted by: Robinson at February 27, 2005 01:04 AM
