Football Season Is A Month Away, But Making Fun Of Peter King Season Is Here To Stay!
Some fun with Peter King on a Monday afternoon. Today, King made the following comment about HBO’s “Hard Knocks” show:
"My one quibble with these shows: They're so fast-paced and move from one drama to the next and one scene to the next, that you don't really
get the feel of what camp is truly like. Very often, camp is boring,
tedious and full of drills you can't watch for very long or you'll go
crazy. If the show is to be the real story of training camp, it must
point out -- not just in flashes but in minutes -- what really happens
at camp, which is often extraordinarily humdrum."
Agreed. I, too, would find the show far more fascinating if it were more boring. Now you now why King's MMQB column is 56,000 words long. We at KSK found King’s logic irresistible. From it, we drew the following conclusions:
-King doesn't understand why the WSOP doesn't show the hands where everybody folds
-King watched Major League last night, and wished they'd show how well Willie Mays Hayes worked the count
-King doesn't understand why he can't watch every single American Idol audition
-He's disappointed Shark Week has so much killing when, in fact, most of the time sharks are just swimming around
-He’s a huge fan of Kevin Costner films
-He will only attend a wedding if it is Greek Orthodox
-He wishes he could read ALL the mail Bill Simmons gets in his mailbag
-King wishes pornography had more foreplay. Women just don't get automatically wet, you know
-King wants to know why his Lawrence of Arabia Director’s Cut DVD skimped on the deleted scenes
-King wishes "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" consisted of one uninterrputed take
-King thinks "To Catch a Predator" doesn't depict chat rooms accurately, should show footage of benign exchanges
-King wishes that the producers of The Office would shift the focus from the employees to the hard facts about paper sales
-King wishes Tony Romo would cuddle more
-When Peter King bought tickets to "28 Days Later" he was was stunned and disappointed to learn he didn't have to wait four weeks to see the movie
-King wishes Yes had produced more B-side compilations
Clearly, this is why King enjoys going to Starbucks so much. Yours in the comments.

PK'S Journal Entry 2722 -
Instead of shows like the Shield and the Wire which are so fast paced I think they need to slow it down a bit. How about a hour of showing us what it really takes to get a search warrant. All the paper work, petition to the judge, more paper work, etc. PK your a genius... chokes on a pork rhine.
