This isn't a Valentine's topic, but a relationship one overall for guys and maybe girls who have some frustration. Personally as a guy, I'd love to go on a date with a girl. Develop a relationship in hopes of getting married, have kids, the usual shtick. But what drives a girl to want someone in their life? That significant other?
Well, that depends on what they want and what they need in their life and relationship ideals. I would say they would want someone intelligent and vice versa. There might be a few that get tired of the low IQ ones and break off the relationship. As far as looks go, I think there has to be a little bit of competence. While girls might vision a Fabio or some model, they have to be realistic about the person being average looking or at least have a nice face. Of course, there is the common interests aspect. Sometimes, opposites do attract for specific reasons. There are girls that are into the outdoor scene. Things like fishing, hiking, the whole nine yards. Then there is the ones that are geeky, or homebodies.
That being said, you do gotta be careful with girls personalities. They might have a political side that might be different from yours. Having their own kids from a previous relationship might be a huge obstacle depending on that situation. While guys do get the brunt of having affairs, girls are capable of doing affairs of their own, so I would be a little cautious. There's a lot of things, but it's up to both sides to say whether or not they want to be together.
Overall, just be yourself and don't get nervous like me. Have the confidence to begin a relationship and let it grow into something special.

Seinfeld: The Phone Message Review
I'll give the skinny for why The Phone Message exists. An unmade episode, The Bet, was cancelled quickly, and Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld wrote this very quickly. If you want more into the cancelled one, check out my blog. The Phone Message is based on stuff that happened to David and on the Inside Look, a canned skit he wrote for Saturday Night Live.
It's a Jerry and George episode, mostly George's. He explains to Jerry about going on a date with a girl after being called a wuss at work. It's an interesting concept. The date with goes actually well. Jerry has a date, too, and it goes successful as well. Both go downhill. George's date, Carol, asks him to go up for coffee and he declines. The regret he has is funny. Jerry goes back to his place with his date, Donna. A discussion of funny material leads to talk over a Dockers commercial. He hates it, she likes it.
George becomes obsessed with what happened and he leaves a phone message. He leaves a few more and fears the worst that Carol will hear what he had to say and responding a few days in a row. In Elaine's only scene in the episode, she talks about a brother in law doing something stupid on an answering machine and switched a tape at the person's apartment. It leaves George doing the idea and getting Jerry to help him out.
The only thing I'll say with the last part of the episode is that it feels like an advanced version of The Stakeout except for a few different reasons. Jerry and George's banter is funny and they feed off each other very well. Just the concept alone is good. Jerry's story is just the Dockers thing with Donna. It reminds me of some episodes when the show got big where Jerry talks certain things about his dates to his friends and the dates getting pissed. Though the last of his story is not necessarily his fault. As I said, Elaine only has one scene, but it is pivotal. Kramer only has two scenes. One is a stand up bit for Jerry and pissing off Donna in the other one for the Dockers thing.
It could be worse. Not a bad episode, but definitely comes off as a first season episode.
Score: 7 out of 10
Next week's review is another apartment searching episode.

The Bet, An Unmade Seinfeld Episode
Any TV show will have plot ideas that either are shelved, revised or brought back. Like most, Seinfeld has ones that never saw the light of day. It's most famous one almost made it to production, but didn't because of how uncomfortable the cast was. That would be The Bet or The Gun in this short blog
You're going to have a hard time finding the inside look of it since it's near impossible to find, so I'll go by what I've read on articles and any recollection from watching the inside look. For the episode, Elaine thinks about arming herself with a gun for protection in a bet against Jerry. Another bet consists of George and Kramer in one whether or not Kramer had sex with a flight attendant. They had stuff set up for this. They had guest stars, a set. Everything seemed to be in order when they started production in late 1990.
Then again, this was written by Larry Charles. As I've said in The Baby Shower review, his type of episodes were dark plots and absurd moments. His script got the main cast feeling very uncomfortable. Just the stuff that he wanted Julia Louis-Dreyfus to say would send a chill down your spine. I know this is a sitcom and all, but this would have been a banned episode or at least controversial if this was filmed and aired. References to assassinated presidents would not have helped. Gun related humor for the most part is typically unfunny, especially for a show that had struggles early on.
This is why The Phone Message exists. I'm sure that the crew had to keep Charles at bay with his material. There's a lot of things you can get away with in film and channels like HBO, but not prime time networks. Luckily, he calmed a bit and while he still wrote dark stories, they didn't go completely overboard like this unmade episode.

Seinfeld: The Chinese Restaurant Review
While Seinfeld today is regarded as one of the greatest sitcoms ever, it still had hurdles in 1991. For one, NBC was not pleased with their episode, The Chinese Restaurant. To keep in mind, this was a mid season replacement show. This was a production in the middle of producing season two episodes, but like The Busboy, aired very late. The network did let it air in late May. If you get a chance, watch the inside look. They had quite a bit of people talking about it, including an NBC executive.
It's a premise that is so simple, yet executed well by both Larry David and Jerry, based on an actual experience the two had. Jerry, Elaine, and George are out trying to get seated at a Chinese restaurant. That's it. No Monk's Cafe, no Jerry's apartment. Just stand up at the beginning and end, with the episode taking place only in that restaurant. That alone pissed off NBC to where they hated it. Hard to imagine since this is one of the show's most loved episodes.
As per usual for a Seinfeld episode, they're not getting seated and they wait desperately. I really wish I could talk more about this episode, but there's no filler. Jerry wants to go see in the theater Plan 9 From Outer Space. He also makes a lie to his uncle about going to his place for dinner, but gets caught in the end. George is waiting on a phone call from a girl, and you can pretty much guess what happens. Elaine doesn't have anything other than being very hungry. Kramer is not in this episode, which is a little strange Their idea was he never left his apartment as they explained in the inside look.
Hunger does a lot when someone doesn't get their food. David and Seinfeld make it very apparent with Elaine and give her quite a bit of emotions. It's weird having George trying to be a normal human in society. Easy to see why he becomes a funny cheapskate jerk as the show goes on. Even Jerry having issues with family is funny. Anything he does wrong, and many members will find out. A nice guest star they had was James Hong playing the host of the restaurant and being a thorn in the three's side. Then again, he's just doing his job.
Despite no Kramer, it's very funny, and less is more is not a bad thing. You don't see an episode go 15 minutes and then head for it's first commercials. It's rather easy to forget how strong some of these early episodes are, especially for a second season one.
Score: 8 out of 10
Next week's episode is one that was written quickly because of an unmade episode never making it past rehearsals.

Hero to Zero New England
The New England Patriots lost last night to the Philadelphia Eagles. Matt Patricia coordinated one of the worst games of his career, giving up over 500 yards and 41 points in last night's Super Bowl. One of the big blemishes and fails to people was not how much the defense faltered, but who wasn't on it. A game time decision was made not to have corner Malcolm Butler play. The result was not getting any snaps on defense.
For those who don't know, Butler was an undrafted free agent who signed with the Patriots in 2014. His name would be recognized after his interception at the very end of Super Bowl 49. After that, he has played three more years which includes this last one. He has been one of their bigger contributors to the secondary. That being said, something must have happened. The media asked that question to him and coach Bill Belichick. Belichick said it was a coach's decision. As usual, he is vague and doesn't explain in detail. Not too long after the game was finished, the media tried to get something out of Butler. In the end, he thought the team gave up on him.
For as much as I don't care for both Super Bowl teams this year, this has got to be one of the biggest gaffes not just for a New England team, but any team overall. Butler didn't exactly have a great 2017 season, but it wasn't horrible. Considering the first half of the game, he probably could have made a few plays, especially when his replacement Eric Rowe got burned on Alshon Jeffrey's touchdown catch. This will be on Belichick's conscious for a while, and it will be talked all year, even when the 2018 season comes in September
Belichick will view 95 percent of his team as expendable. As I've said, this is the guy who cut Bernie Kosar in the middle of the 1993 season when he coached the Cleveland Browns. He's not afraid to find new personnel for both his offense and defense. Even with that, it's not entirely the defense's fault, though it was mostly that. The Partiots didn't run the ball too well. Questionable throws despite Brady's 505 yards. It's definitely a few other players, but the defense made it worse and rightfully so.
If anything, Butler's time in New England is over. Not a pretty way to say thanks for his four years. From hero to a big zero, that will sting a lot worse than the Super Bowl loss. Belichick is selfish at times and doesn't get it. Unfortunately, I think we won't get an honest answer. The Patriots have a lot things to look over and how they deal with their defense is another story. Dreams can be a nightmare.

Super Bowl LII Recap
There were a lot of storylines regarding Super Bowl LII. Philadelphia went to the game in 1980 and 2004, both of which were losses. New England has gone five and four. Five wins in 2001, 03, 04, 14 and 16, with losses in 1985, 96, 2007, and 11. They both met in the 04 season, another close one in the Super Bowl. When it's all said and done, Philly went toe to toe and won it's first ever Super Bowl and it's fourth overall championship.
Jitters might be the word I would describe the first quarter, particularly the kicking game. Missed extra points from both Jake Elliott and Stephen Gostkowski. A bad handle from punter Ryan Allen caused Gostkowski to miss a 26 yard field goal in the second quarter. Other than that, it was a very thrilling game that went down to the wire. It seemed like every drive was going to end up with points with the final being 41 to 33 Eagles. Only one punt was seen in the entire game. Gutsy calls on fourth down favored the Eagles while the Patriots attempt early in the game faltered.
Yards piled up to the point where Tom Brady had 400 yards passing before the fourth quarter started, and he ended up with 505. Both teams combined for 1,151 yards. This is a record ever for any game in NFL history, regular and postseason. Nick Foles had a very strong game, which we will get to in a short moment. He joins Doug Williams and Jeff Hostetler as the only guys to start three or less games and win a Super Bowl (Williams for Washington in 1987, Hostetler for the Giants in 1990) Each side ran for 100 yards combined from their ground game. Philadelphia dominated it with reaching 160 plus.
For the Eagles, they make the NFC East the first division to have all four teams as Super Bowl winners. Foles was unstoppable. Outside of the interception, he had just over 370 yards and three touchdowns. He made plays when he needed to and finished one of the finer postseasons for a player. LeGarrette Blount had a big game with 90 yards rushing and a touchdown. Nelson Agholor and Corey Clement were big contributors. Zach Ertz gave them the lead for good with his touchdown. Foles even got a receiving touchdown himself. Defensively, they did not let up, and it led to the only sack in the game being a big deal. Despite the points they gave up, they were relentless and played for 60 minutes, something most teams can't do against New England. A tough secondary and a front four group adds a lot more with their ability to stop most plays.
Regarding the Patriots, it is their third loss under Bill Belichick, all being NFC East teams during his tenure. (Two losses against the Giants) Not only that, but it is their fifth Super Bowl loss overall going back to their first one in 1985, which is a record in itself. There will definitely be some retooling come next year. The defense didn't give up much in points this year, but it was shredded in pass defense. Tonight was no exception. Their run defense wasn't abysmal, but it looked really bad against the Eagles. Their fourth down play early in the game didn't pay off. A pass to Brady as a receiver failed miserably. Gostkowski's missed kicks hurt them. James White and Dion Lewis didn't amount to anything tonight. Too many mistakes in every facet was very noticeable. With Josh McDaniels (though whether he takes the job as Colts coach as of now is now a big question) and Matt Patricia on the verge of leaving to be head coaches, a big question will be how the Patriots handle having new coordinators.
Something will have to give in Philly. Where does Nick Foles go? Does Carson Wentz still have the starting job? A lot of decisions have to be made if they want to repeat. In New England, it will be a matter of how much this Super Bowl loss will sting for Belichick and Brady. Judging by the benching of Malcolm Butler, something tells me that team is going to start ridding of players they think would hurt them. It wouldn't surprise me. After all, this is the same coach that cut Bernie Kosar in the middle of the 1993 season when he coached the Cleveland Browns. Anything can happen under Belichick. I would think they would rebound, but who knows.
Odds are the riots are going very strong in Philadelphia due to the city going nuts over this win. In a few days, I will discuss the Hall of Fame players that got their call this past weekend. Until then, savor one of the most entertaining Super Bowls in recent memory.

Shut Up, Millennials! (The Whiny Ones, At Least)
I will always consider myself a Generation Y kid and generalize 1983 through 97 as that group. Unfortunately, that ugly phrase, millennial, is used in place of Gen Y and is accepted as that. However, that's not that point of this blog. This is about whiny millennials crying about James Bond 007 films.
Most people now these days will find a vast array of films, showcasing different eras of time. James Bond has been a relevant franchise since the 50s and since the 60s with the movies made around Ian Fleming's secret agent. In the case of millennials, articles are publishing about the whining about how racist and sexist the early ones are. This is considering recently as well that they are not just criticizing 50 year old stuff. The TV show Friends has gotten criticized for homophobic jokes and lines, and that started airing from 1994 until 2004.
To the ones criticizing this stuff, this is what I have to say. Shut the fuck up, you over privileged, over sheltered, coddled, spoiled, rotten, uncultured, thin skinned, over sensitive, snotty, four flushing moronic pieces of shit. These kind of films and shows are a product of their time. You can't criticize every little thing that happened back in 1962 and expect it to be like 2018. There was a time where you could say queer. Now, we don't today. I wonder how any of you will react to Austin Powers, which was a huge parody of Bond films and had a lot of sexual references.
I wonder how many would react to stuff from plays like A Streetcar Named Desire, which came around in 1947. It's sad that these kind of millennials are getting offended so easily by different eras of film. They are not the only ones seeing them. Hell, when Looney Tunes started releasing their shorts on DVD, they put up a few things in them to say that their very old cartoons might have certain things that reflected the era they were in. After all, most generations have seen at least a cartoon or two of this group. It'll be funny to see how many would also react from the One Beer episode of Tiny Toon Adventures or any kids cartoon with smoking or drinking.
These millennials crying need to grow a pair and look at culture from back then without bursting into rage and tears. Despite how racist Blazing Saddles is, it is still a very funny film. One of these days, they will get older and a new generation will do the same thing. It is an endless cycle, only except today, they vent on social media. The Internet may be great, but it is a very dangerous weapon.

Seinfeld: The Jacket Review
The Jacket has got to be one of the more interesting episodes in Seinfeld's history. It's more the behind the scenes stuff that occurred rather than the episode itself.
Jerry is browsing through jackets and finds himself a nice suede one. It fits him well and after a little concern about the price, he buys it. There seems to be this obsession over the fact that he loves it so much. To the point of Kramer taking his old jacket. Outside of that, the next big plot involves Jerry, Elaine, and George. All three are to meet and go to dinner with Alton Benes, Elaine's father.
For the guest stars before this episode, it consisted of small named actors or ones that they found on the street. Seinfeld went all out and got Lawrence Tierney. The Inside Look on the DVD for this episode goes really into the casts feelings about the actor and the character. Larry David based Alton on a girlfriend's father, but the cast and crew were scared. This is a guy in his 70s that still had that same personality that he had in movies from the 40s and 50s. Those mob films, gangster ones. It's funny that his career was still going high a year and a half later when Reservoir Dogs hit theaters. Even from what I read, the crew of The Simpsons had issues with Tierney when he voiced a store security guy for an episode a few years later.
The idea of parents appearing in episodes from time to time is not unusual. Unfortunately, Tierney taking a knife off the set was a breaking point. A shame, though, because Alton terrifies Jerry and George very well. Talking about war and a tail gunner getting killed feels dark but still funny considering who he is talking to about it. Even early on in the episode, Elaine is uncomfortable having not seen her father in a while.
Outside of Jerry's main plot, George's is singing Les Miserables and they show it a handful of times. It helps a bit considering Jason Alexander being involved in theater. Kramer and Elaine have their own little story of their own. Kramer is watching birds for a magician and needs someone to watch them for a few minutes. He tried to get Jerry and George to do it, but they didn't. A funny bit includes Jerry knowing how his neighbor functions. Elaine winds up late to meet her father and the two. Her explanation is the opposite of how she was in The Busboy in that she is very animated about what happened with watching the birds. We do get a mention of her job at Pendant Publishing, a place that will have quite a bit of episode plot lines for her.
The ending is what you would expect out of anything Larry David writes. With what he and Jerry wrote for the episode, it's a great one. All four characters have their moments and are hilarious. Improvement of the stories and characters with each passing episode shows the genius of this sitcom.
Score: 8 out of 10
