TV Boyfriends

When I did my first preview of what I thought were American Idol hotties, I didn’t even cover David Cook.  Why?  Well, for one, his look just doesn’t appeal to me.  I don’t like the hair, the big cheesy grin or the tuft of hair on his chin.  Add to that, I’m not a big rocker fan.  So, with that, I skipped him.  His look hasn’t changed but I’m here to tell you that the week when he sang Michael Jackson’s Billy Jean, I almost started to be a fan of his. 

He is only 25 so he has lots of time to make himself known and maybe he will make it as a rocker, I still won’t be listening.  But, if he cuts Billy Jean, I’m buying.  Even the judges liked it.  Randy said, “I think you’re probably the most original, the most bold contestant we’ve ever had.” Paul said she was so blown away that she couldn’t sit down but what’s new, right?  But, then Simon throws out the ultimate compliment by saying, “…it could have either been insane or amazing and, I have to tell you, it was amazing.”  See, when Simon likes you, you go places.

I’ve gone over this guy before, so nothing new really.  Well, except that now he is into AI and not been kicked out just yet.  So, this time around, I’m telling you, he was born in Texas and he is the first person in his family to be born in the U.S. He plays guitar and as we learned on Tuesday night, he can play the ukulele.  He also played soccer, and you know I love me an athlete.  His performance of Hallelujah has people downloading it like mad. 

So far he has sung Daydream, I Just Want to Be Your Everything, Hallelujah, If I Fell, Michelle, Fragile, Travelin’ Thru and of course tonight he sang Over the Rainbow…which I loved!

So, here he is..

Ok, so I know, I’m a little late here but John Calipari is the coach of the Memphis Tigers and as well know by now, they are not the NCAA Champions.  But, what he is is one classy man.  He has enough wins under his belt that winning is second nature.  Then, you give a man the manners of this man and what you get is someone who is a joy to watch win.  I cheered for Memphis for several reasons and he was one of them. 

He made his name at UMass back from 1988 to 1996 when he led Minutemen program to conference title after conference title.  He finished with a 193-71 record overall with a 91-41 record in Atlantic Conference games.  He was named Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year in 1992, 93 and again in 1996. He led UMass to its first ever appearance in the Final Four with the play of the John R. Wooden Award Winner Marcus Camby.

He moved to the New Jersey Nets for the 96-97 season.  In his first 8 years as head coach at Memphis he won 218 games.  That’s not anything to be blowing smoke at ya’ll.  So, I give you…John Calipari

Do you know who he is? He is the center for Memphis.  And, as you know, they lost last night in the NCAA championship to Kansas.  I know I know, why am I featuring a losing member?  Well, because he seems to be the talk of the town. It seems when he is on the court, he is not much to get all in a wad about, but off the court, the media is hounded the heck out of the kid.

He talks about how he had a brutal background growing up in Baltimore.  He said closing out his season as a NCAA Champion would be icing on the cake.  According to Dorsey he had 38 text messages the night before the game and 25 missed phone calls.  His high school coach even called him to tell him how proud of him he was.

He was put down by his homies in the hood and they tried to tell him he wouldn’t make it.  He has most definitely proved them wrong.  So, what makes him a good TV Boyfriend?  Well, for one, he is 6′9″ tall and I love me a big tall man.  And, at 265 pounds, he is no skinny man.  And, who doesn’t like an athlete?  I love ‘em.

Watch Dorsey fly…

I didn’t watch this show in the beginning and to be honest, when I started watching it, I was more excited to see Tony Gonzalez.  Tony is a NFL star and nine-time Pro Bowler as well as a Boys and Girls Club Hall of Famer.   He played tight end and I sure wish I could see him in his 3 point stance.

I mean, 6′5″ and 251 pounds…whoo lalala is all I know to say.
