It’s a Man-Fix

I’m not too hip to pop culture, and so the fact that Tori Spelling has a reality television show with her Canadian love monkey Dean McDermott had barely registered on my radar.  imageThat is, till Dean brought a video camera to the arena with him to play some hockey, and explained why he needs the sport in his life:

“I kinda need my man-fix… I’m feeling like a bit of a housewife.”

and

“F#@k, we’re guys. We’re stupid. We need to be stupid!”

And (God love him, he makes my day) he says this all while wearing an Edmonton Oilers jersey t-shirt.  Here’s the video:

A slightly different take on Tim Allen’s famous quote: “Men are pigs. We know it. We accept it.”

Ha! 

Well, I just enjoy the whole thing because it scores me a trifecta. In my own warped mind, I get to make fun of men in general, Hollywood goofiness, and Oilers fans… all at the same time! grin

Isn’t that a Hamilton Bulldogs jersey? Not an Edmonton Oilers jersey?

I was talking about 30 seconds in, when he’s in the locker room, he’s wearing an Oilers t-shirt. (I said jersey because I wasn’t paying enough attention, just looking at the logo. whoops!)

Is the jersey from the Hamilton Bulldogs, though? Now that I won’t make fun of. smile

It is, indeed, from their days as an Oilers farm team.  Nice, obscure find.
