Your Monday Morning Roundup

Hey look, kids, there’s big Chevy via (@CorkGaines)

I’d give SNL at 40 a solid B-. It could’ve been really, historically bad. But while there were a ton of hiccups and much confusion in the completely transformed studio, some sketches and bits absolutely knocked it out of the park. Celebrity Jeopardy was historically good. All the attention will go to Sean Connery and Alex Trebek, but Jim Carrey’s Matthew McConaughey continues to be one of the best impressions around, and Alec Baldwin’s Tony Bennett is fantastic. I completely lost it at Let It Snow. Wayne’s World, too, was perfectly done, and the Kanye part was genuinely awesome. Of course, the whole thing was a bit too masturbatory and felt a little insidery, even for someone who’s been a fan of the show for 20+ years. And update your death pools accordingly for Chevy Chase.

The roundup:

Jim Carrey asking Matt Lauer about Brian Williams tripped up Lauer’s personality algorithm.

A Grey’s Anatomy star(?) suffered a knee injury during the Celebrity All-Star Game. Paging too-pale Dr. Grey– your assistance is needed on the court.

The Daily News is apparently putting all of its eggs… into Marcus Hayes’ basket– I predict they’re going to fail:

Beginning-to-get-overexposed-Philadelphians Mo’ne Davis and Kevin Hart went head-to-head in the Celebrity All-Star Game. Mo’ne… is better at basketball than she is at baseball. Hart yells a lot.

The Flyers beat the terrible Sabres to pull within five points of a playoff spot. Excitement.

Apple is reportedly working on a self-driving electric car. Can I pay for that with Apple Pay?

The FAA has proposed new drone regulations.

It’s gonna snow tomorrow. Probably. For real this time. Maybe. Eh, 50-50 shot. No for real. Nah. We’ll see.

Four teams have reportedly made Cole Hamels offers. Four teams will likely be turned away by an overzealous Ruben Amaro, who was probably the kid in sixth grade who couldn’t unload the hot new Pog slammer because he’s a selfish dope.

Larry Bowa says the Phillies can’t miss trading Hamels. I love having Bowa as a coach– he’s like your inappropriate uncle who says whatever he wants, wherever and whenever.

“You guys really don’t know shit,” this player said about the media.

Trying to hide this link from fashion editor Dan.

Kyle Lowry is one of my all-time favorite athletes ever. Good for him for making the All-Star Game, in which he dunked.

White people dancing at sporting events.

I went to CSN looking for a link. Is this the saddest collection of Philly sports headlines ever?
