In Great Feats of Strength Reality
I don’t watch The Bachelor. I have a problem with dating shows not featuring flava flav. But I come from a Navy family (beat army!) which makes it hard to resist programming that chronicles this man’s search for love:
Luckily, ESPN.com got my favorite sports writer’s wife to review the episodes so I don’t actually have to watch them. And she treats us to funny glimpses of the Simmons household. What’s not to like?

All right, I love Bill Simmons’s wife’s column. Especially in the archives where she wrote this:
“There’s a new commercial where Lindsay Lohan claims that she uses Proactiv a few times a week for healthy skin. This made me laugh because she lives at the Chateau Marmont and probably gets a facial and massage every other day. Also, this girl can’t even show up on a movie set on time, now I’m supposed to believe she remembers to take her Proactiv every day? I don’t think anyone who’s famous or wealthy should be able to go on TV and endorse skin products unless they divulge the other “keys” to their beauty routine, like acne extractions every week, microderm abrasion two times a month, two facials a week and La Mer moisturizing products at $200 a pop. These celebrities spend at least $2,000 a month keeping their skin “healthy.” In Lindsay’s case, she’s a chain-smoking, club-hopping tramp who spends her spare time getting tanning sessions, shopping and forgetting to eat. She’s going to look like a leather purse in 25 years no matter how much Proactiv she takes. She should have to mention that too. I hate that commercial.”

So are you still watching the show? I actually just posted an interview with Steph Kansas – http://blog.meevee.com/my_weblog/2007/05/the_bachelor_of_1.html#more
Any interest in posting the link on your blog? We do a Bachelor interview every week.
