Wait.... what about the new meteorologist Rachel Frank from Fox 61? It seems like she's taking the city by 'storm.' No pun intended. She deserves a Wild Card spot!
ReplyDeleteMy votes:
ReplyDelete1. Helen Ubinas: Hottest "real"person on the list and power-tweeter
2. Colin McEnroe: second only to Olbermann when it comes to breath control while speaking extemporaneously.
3. Scott Haney: role model for professional gays everywhere.
I'm a fan of Rachel Frank, I second that motion, now that I am boycotting WTNH's evening newscasts for screwing over Geoff Fox after 26 years.
ReplyDeleteBTW you need to replace the local tweeter or give a valid link, tried to follow her and it says she doesn't exist :)
@heather...link worked for me. Maybe it's because I am already following her? Here is her tweet name @COCAiNEJAiNE
ReplyDeleteHelen Ubinas FTW.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Until today, I thought Gerry Brooks was a girl.
ReplyDeleteI predict it will come down to Craig the Pornstar and Scot Haney. They will then compete in an erotic nude wrestling match to decide the ultimate champion.
ReplyDeleteHey Jeff Lebowski...
ReplyDeleteScot Haney is a professional gay? As opposed to an amateur gay?
The March Madness concept will make for an excellent competition but my top three in no particular order are Segarra, McEnroe, and Ubiñas. I'll be happy if I beat out Stan McCauley. ~Luis
ReplyDeletew'sup Stan!! Bring it!! :-)
colin mcenroe is fucking clueless, why is this man on any list? makes our city seem pretty lame just seeing him on there.
ReplyDeleteWell . . . This is going to be fun! I'll take the red corner Luis ;-)

ReplyDeleteScott Haney is most assuredly a professional at being gay. But he's also a great meteorologist.
