Wedding Fail!

We had a great time enjoying our friends wedding over the weekend.  It went pretty much without a hitch well at least as far as we know that is! The best man went AWOL for a while but at least he didn't do this...


It did not start like the JK Wedding video we've seen online for some time.  What?  You've never seen the JK Wedding Video?  Don't worry we've got your backs...


We actually think this was where the Glee wedding was based on.  You've never seen the Glee Wedding Episode either?  Where have you been hiding?  Don't worry we still got your back!


For a better copy, you may want to check out this youtube video (click here) which unfortunately prohibits embedding.

Pregnant Bride Wedding Gown
What we really liked about the wedding was the fact that the bride was not wearing this gown!  And that neither the bride nor the groom was not painted on like this.

Painted Wedding Gowns and Suits
Neither were we asked to wear costumes (which would have been great given the right theme!).
Star Wars Wedding
And the bride was not wearing roller blades either (which would also have been cool!)

Of course this gown out of the Little Mermaid would have looked ridiculous as well!
Ursula Gown (Little Mermaid)
If the bride had worn this gown, we would have been exhausted before the wedding started!
Longest Wedding Train
We enjoyed the beach side wedding but was happy this did not have to happen!

If it had, it would have to to this...
Torn Wet Wedding Gown
As we moved from the Beach to the reception area, we were glad none of these happened...



We were also please to know that there were no crossing the line audio visual presentations (AVP) prepared by the newlyweds.

Or it would really have been awkward for the family!  Of course it would have been memorable had any of these occurred, but we were just glad to have a great weekend!  And of course the groom didn't do this!
Sneezing on Brides Gown
The games were quite fun, but we were fine that there none of these!

The bride must have been really tired after all the activities wearing the wedding gown and heels, we would imagine that she would have loved to do this...

That Just Looks So Wrong - American Football (Rugby)

We were supposed to make a mixed sport post, but when we saw this pic from one of our friend's post we remembered that we had a treasure trove of funny (and painful!) football pictures that makes one wonder if it was possible!  We really have to hold on the mixed sport images until next week. 

Football Swinging Both Ways Right?
We also remember posting the newspaper clipping from our post And That's The News! Which we consider a layout artist and editorial tag team feat!

Football - Still Blowing?
There are of course other football players caught in not so flattering pictures...

Football - Rams vs. Detroit then?
Some can't wait to get off the field to swing to the other side!  You just have to say get a room dammit!
Football - Get a Room!
Then again there are images where you don't really have to think and the jerseys say it all, and caught on film to be remembered for all time!

Football - Gay #20
Football jerseys are supposed to show the players last names right?  Ar they really supposed to?  It would seem though that these perfectly captured images have hidden meanings...

Football - Moore Goode Dick!  Get it?
If you didn't get that one maybe this one would ring a bell... or rather dingle a berry!
Football - Dingle Berry
But kidding aside, there are also the really painful images that made the rounds on our e-mails before social networking made it big, that is.  Though there are still people who forward email... but that is a topic for another time.
Football - Painful!
You think that hurt?  What about this one?
Rugby - Knee
Damn!  We cringe to think at the pain the guy is feeling!  That looks really painful.  Even after seeing it for the NTH time, we can't get that cold spine tingling feeling off whenever we see this image.  So we have to get back to these kinds of plays...
Football - Groin Kick
If you can't get enough of it, football players could take your head away figuratively at least...

Football - Head Away!
If you still don't get it, your head could be taken out literally!

Football - Headless Player
Of course the referee would be there to ummm... referee!  But when they get tired of your antics these old geezers could pack a wallop!
Football - Referee Punch!
Hope you enjoyed these photos as much as we did!

Now THAT's a How You Use A Jumper Cable!


Now that's how you use a jumper cable!  We remember seeing this commercial a years back and were hoping this was a Cobra Energy Drink Commercial so we can give Cobra  and Philippine Airlines props for supporting the Philippines Dragon Boat Team EVEN BEFORE they won 5 Gold Medals in the 10th IDBF World Dragon Boat Racing Championships in Tampa Bay, Florida.  They believed in the Filipino Athletes despite the government's failure to do so.

Support
It was interesting to see how politics has entered and interferes with athletics competition.  When because of the corruption in national federations and the international ranks as well, the best are not normally representing their nations.  But this time the 2-time defending champion team defended their title and brought home 5 gold medals and 2 Silver medals bringing honor to their country despite the fact that their government weren't their to support them (until they won of course!).

PNoy with the Cobra Philippine Dragon Boat Paddlers
Of course now that they've won, everybody's jumping on the bandwagon!

Sadly, skill and talent are not enough for marketing people and politicians.  Support always comes too late from politician's; their are only a few who would support up and coming champions but they will always jump on the bandwagon as soon as athletes become champions.

Unfortunately for Filipino athletes if you are not in a basketball team (which is not really a good sport for Filipino's to excel because of the disadvantage in height) or a boxer (thanks to the Honorable Congressman from Saranggani and proven champion Manny Pacquiao) chances are, you will receive no support from the government or the big businesses, even if you are the most talented player in your sport.

Unless of course you have athletes named Phil and James Younghusband or some other showbiz worthy celebrity persona in your team.  It is time for change the Philippines should concentrate on their strengths (boxing, football and dragon boat among others) and forget about the fantasy of beating Western teams (USA, Spain and Germany among them) in basketball!

We doubt this would be heard by our leaders, but its worth a shot right?  So lets get back to the funny stuff! While looking for the Sting commercial, we found out that their are other versions as well.


We like the first one better, the "mechanic" chosen made it more funny and interesting.  What do you think?

That Just Looks So Wrong - Figure Skating

Figure  Skating Amazing
 Even we have to admit that this in amazing shot in a sport of grace and precise execution.  But not all athletes are created equal.

Figure Skating Fail
And so sometimes this happens.  What was supposed to be an amazing sight of athletic precision becomes a very dangerous accident.

Figure Skating
We are at a loss for words.  This is an accident waiting to happen!

Figure Skating Pile-driver
Figure Skating Tombstone Pile-driver
That is a move even the undertaker would be envious of! Is this really figure skating or is there a new fusion sport of wrestling and skating?   That has got to hurt!

Figure Skating Wardrobe Malfunction
Sometimes figure skater's also suffer from wardrobe malfunction.

Figure Skating Sliding
Well better a wardrobe malfunction then an error of throwing your partner over the skating rink and cause this...

Figure Skating?
We have to honestly admit we think its from a spoof movie the likes of Blades of Glory, but then again we are not certain so just enjoy it!

Figure Skating Elbow
Before throwing your partner across the rink, you better remember that they can do this as well!  Also remember that some partners are able to execute the pile-driver accurately as well!

For more funny skating moments you might want to check out the Will Ferrell comedy Blades of Glory from Amazon.com

And That's the News!

Remember when we posted this error made by the Miami Herald in our Miami Heat article?

Miami Heat 2011 Champions! (Miami Herald)
That time we actually had a playful argument that maybe the Miami Herald's editor was really pissed at the Heat for losing what was deemed by many a championship that was rightfully theirs.  Then again, the Herald's editor could have been anti-Heat fan and just waited for the right time to rub the salt on the wounded Miami Heat franchise.  Maybe he was from Cleveland and felt a bit slighted by LeBron Jame's move from Cleveland to Miami.  We'll never know.

Since the NBA is on a hiatus... in case you haven't heard, the NBA owners locked-out the NBA players in a labor dispute where Millionaires (players) are fighting against Billionaires (owners) as to who has the right to earn more money from the business... This is a pretty lame argument for us.  We guess greed really takes the better of even people who won't run out of money.

But enough of the NBA rant! We started this post with an old post because we stumbled ourselves across very interesting newspaper clippings.

Now that is editing!
We don't really know if the layout was made intentionally... but we have to say that the probability for this happening "by chance" is simply close to nil!  maybe the layout artist or the Editor was the model for the underwear, no?  Or maybe they just a great sense of humor like us!

Detroit Blows
We're thinking the Editor was either laughing his heart out or died of a heart attack when he read the morning papers!  Damn!  The picture in itself is a great capture, but the Headline just takes to a whole different level!  We think this would have been more humiliating for Detroit than the actual loss to the Minnesota Vikings would have brought!

Dad Gets Head Job!
It's not what you think...  But yeah that's what we thought as well when we first read this clipping!  Common man!   There should be some other way to phrase that! And they showed a pretty picture of what we think is the excited daughter with her mouth wide open to boot!

Rangers Whiff Colon!
That may not have been such a good idea after all right?  The Sports Editor must have whiffed a lot of it as well to keep his job!  What in the world were they thinking?  Could it have been published in April Fool's Day?  Well that's the basics of newspaper editing!
