In a bizarre twist, Todd is actually the first customer and buys all 25, as he deals with extreme guilt about the hookup and gets a perverse satisfaction out of punishing himself over it.

From the Encyclopedia Brittanica series of educational films comes "Going Nuts for Coconuts!" (1950):
Sterling strikes me as the type of person who would spend hours lining out his exact case, with justifications, evidence, and I-know-you-are-but-what-am-Iisms, for being 30 minutes late to a meeting, instead of taking just four seconds to say "I'm sorry I'm late. I apologize."
And somewhere, Jesse Barfield smiles.........I guess. Shit, I don't know if he does or doesn't. Whatever.
When he's not scrambling or playing abnormally far away in front of the goal, he also gets a lot of criticism for playing too low. I think he actually gives up fewer goals overall due to his "shoot over me—I dare ya!" style. So few players seem to be able to lift the puck these days—he just takes away the entire…
He's definitely a subpar puck handler. He puts a lot of trust in his defense which can make him look brilliant or dumb (often leaving the net wide open and trusting no pass will get through to the other side). The fact he's WILLING to look foolish is probably what makes some of his great plays possible.
Sepp Blatter is wrong, of course....
He learned everything he knows about video games from his teammate, Bartolo Colon, who is a master at Burger Time.
His aggressive style of play tends to lead to a lot of those goals that look soft or make him look like an idiot. That accounts for maybe 90% of those. The rest of them are him just being an idiot, like when he goes behind the net and forgets that the other team is still on the ice.

"We surveyed 100 people, top 5 answers are on the board. Tell me Mariano, what would you throw on an 0-2 count?"
Again, as a fan with more interest than knowledge, Sutter seems like the kind of coach who, strangely enough, basically says "Go play, guys.". Not saying he's not smart, because he has to be to be as good as he is, but he also doesn't seem to be one of these uber types who focuses on everything BUT the actual game,…
Agree with your Hackman assessment too. Was there ever a more plain looking actor….who was so totally captivating and powerful on the screen?
Excellent! Thing about guys like Duvall is right there, in the line regarding how he didn't have the good looks: lacking that, the man learned how to ACT, and as a result, I think the one word that can tie up most of his roles is 'genuine'. Duvall's played a ton of characters in his career (only lately has he…
This is a hell of a good write up on Duvall….I have been saying for so long that he is an under regarded American treasure. I was lucky enough to meet him on the set of "Get Low" filmed in rural Georgia and he seemed to be everything I wanted him to be. A nice gentleman. (Bill Murray was there too and he is also…
Well, I'm from Louisiana, and I can pretty honestly say that he wasn't too far off about any of it. This place is like having a large penis-shaped birthmark on your cheek—not very harmful, but impossible to miss and always embarrassing.
Meanwhile, a bottle of water sits in the corner, looking expectantly out at the dance floor, just KNOWING it could make someone happy if they would only ask....
I'm probably the only white male in America who, other than Seven Nation Army, couldn't identify a single song by either one of these people. I'm so lame. #HipToBeSquare
This is exactly what his girlfriends said before Green got married...
