    No.

    It's more interesting to me if this is like one of those celebrity sex tapes that leak out from time to time to get some PR (any PR is good PR) for the celeb.

    If you take her at her word, it's a downright sleazy and criminal thing that was done to her.

    CliffsNotes? No wonder you missed the sentence fragments. ;)

    I tend to agree that most "celebrity" sex tapes are put out there on purpose, but I think this wasn't the case with Erin Andrews. In her line of work I'm sure she works her ass off to try and prove to people that she doesn't just have that job because she's fine as hell. For celebrities who are famous for no reason (Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian) it gets them much needed PR and attention plus it makes them sex icons, for musicians it can help album sales and exposure, maybe even for actresses like Pamela Anderson it helps their career a lot as well. But I can't see how Andrews would benefit from this at all.

    It would be different if it were Leanne Tweeden from Fox Sports Net who has posed in swimsuits/lingerie etc. but Andrews hasn't done that to my knowledge. I think she actually wants to avoid that. It does make you wonder about why she or her agent would confirm its her because otherwise I doubt this would have gained much steam. Maybe she thinks shes about to be let go from ESPN so she does want to go into modeling or something? I dunno but I just can't see her gaining anything from this.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    A sentence fragment is okay within a parenthetical, my friend. A parenthetical is meant to be a note...it doesn't need to be a full sentence.

    And I simply used Cliff's Notes to show you I wasn't making it up. You seemed unwilling to take me at my word. ;)

    Beginning a sentence with a preposition. For shame, Minstrel. That's a no-no in any collegiate research paper worth a damn, and especially without a comma following it.

    Please feel free to continue correcting my mistakes, though. A banner night for the board, huh? 1, 2, 3 producers, all chasing me around like little children, wanting to correct my grammar. ;)

    She might as well give that up because there is no way she could prove that to anyone. Does any sane person think that someone like Susan Boyle (ju.st.an.exam.ple.) would have that job is she had equal qualifications?

    I quote the author in your link:

    But someone misread that very sensible, context-sensitive advice, and decided that the rule was, "Never put the preposition at the end." And like an urban legend, the simplified rule took on a life of its own. Only yesterday a perfectly well-meaning reader chided a friend of mine for ending a sentence with a preposition.

    EDIT: I really should be a producer!

    That was only a rough draft of my collegiate research paper.

    If you don't want to be chased around by producers acting like little children, why are you running and giggling like a little child? Come on, you know you like it!

    I'm just trying to share my opinions. I'm not really asking for the extra attention. I've actually not been the "mod policeman" for a long time now, but I understand the forgive-but-don't-forget thing.

    Yes, this is a vindictive grudge. Your opinion on...whatever this thread is about...is being smothered maliciously. :)

    It doesn't pay to anger the Producers. That shit'll follow you for the rest of your life.

    Link me to a legitimate source for it, and I'll tell you whether I've watched it or not.

    I have not read that it's actually spreading viruses... just that it reportedly is.

    The closest I've found is that some hackers have created Web sites that have "special players" that users have to install to see the video... that gives those Web sites carte blanche to install whatever they want to.

    While it's possible the video in .wmv form might carry a virus, I haven't seen any reports that that's the case.

    Nice to see someone researching this case like Darrow researched the Scopes' claims. The only similarity to Scopes, however, is that in this instance, the researcher may have spanked it like a monkey while doing his "research".

    Aim high, S2. Please report back to us on your latest findings.
