Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I'm a big fan of justice. That's right...I like things to always be justicey. So when I recently watched the Ben Stiller film "The Heartbreak Kid" on HBO I was outraged. When that film came out it was panned. Rotten Tomatoes lists it at 30%, Yahoo Movies gave it a C, my friends and family that saw it didn't like it, and even my go-to-guy Roger Ebert gave it two out of five stars.
Well they are all mistaken. And I'm here to fight for justice. This movie is Funny! I laughed out loud, by myself, late at night (a tough environment for a comedy to win me over). Besides the fact that I think Ben Stiller is so good he could have made "Norbit" a classic, the Farrelly Brothers have made their funniest film since "There's Something About Mary". The cast is great...Jerry Stiller, Michele Monaghan is one of my favorite new actresses (Mission Impossible III and Gone Baby Gone), and if you don't know who the hilarious Danny McBride is you should.
So there it is. Rent it, watch it on HBO on demand, watch it for free online. Just see it and then tell me I was right. Please.
I feel better now that I've fought for Justin...I mean Justice.

A Good Year
Sports questions for the readers:
Question #1:
Has there been, or will there ever be a better time to be both a UNC Tar Heel and Carolina Panther fan?
Both teams are 4-1. Panthers lead their division, Heels ranked for the first time since 2001. Both teams continue to get better and look like championship teams in their respective conferences.
Question #2:
What will happen after this weekend? Will Cam Sexton have enough to lead the Tar Heels to victory against an improving Notre Dame team? Will the shaky offensive line of the Panthers help their team decisively claim their position as the dominant ball club in the NFC South? The Panthers face a strong Tampa Bay squad that has big wins against the Packers, the Bears, and the Falcons already this year. The Heels play a Charlie Weis led team that is also 4-1 and continues to play well as an underdog team that no one thought would win 7 games.
Both teams 5-1 by Sunday night? I sure hope so.
Thoughts?
