Typically, when a DVR has the red button lit, it means, "Hello, I'm recording.". So, how come the finale of "The Office" didn't record? Crap. But I did watch it live. Very funny. Steve Carell wrote this one and when he announced he was going to "drop a deuce on everyone", I pert near fell off the chair. Of all the secrets that came out, I thought Creed being a thief was best. Now I know why on company ID day, he turned to his left after his head-on shot. Great stuff. And what are we up to now? Potentially four office romances? Sub Jim for Roy-Pam, Michael-Jan?, Ryan-Kelly, Dwight-Angela. Sheesh.

The writing was really crisp this year and now a whole bunch of possibilities have reared their respective ugly heads. I would say most folks want Jim and Pam to be together, but would that ruin the show, kind of what "Cheers" went through. Hopefully, it's not like Redford at the end of "The Candidate" saying, "Now what?". My hope is that Roy becomes the new "Richie Cunningham's older brother, Chuck". Still, part of me wants to see Kevin play at the wedding in that Police cover band, "Scrantonicity".

Here's what happens when you hang out with Bill Murray. Rick Sutcliffe visits his old San Diego Padre broadcast team. Unfortunately, he shows up late in the game and he's bombed.

And we thought Triv was bad.

The antics of Tom Cruise didn't hurt the box office of his last movie. But it looks like "MI:3" may be a different story.

Exercise Yard

Nobody can break down a basketball game like Charley Rosen, as he does here with the Clippers and Suns. The question on Fox Radio on Czaban's show this a.m., was that no one knew what "sinking the big man" meant. Then, of course, Czabe hit a sound bite of a toilet flushing and it all became clearer somehow.
