After the Frump is the trailer for “Fight For Your Right - Revisited” which is apparently a 30 minute video that drops with their new CD on May 3rd. It looks like the majority of Hollywood I actually like had some free time and decided to take part. As a rando youtube commenter said; “Seth [...]

Community Christian Church’s Version of Rebecca Black’s “Friday” Sure to Make You Take the Lord’s Name in Vain
Just when you thought Rebecca Black’s megahit couldn’t possibly get any worse, some Christian megachurch had to go and exacerbate things. Fortunately, this doesn’t appear to be Community Christian Church’s (CCC) ordinary course of business. No, apparently when CCC isn’t dropping videos, they’re producing seminars — like “Hero God”: Everybody needs a hero, but what [...]

YouTube offers some curious suggestions for viewers of the live performance of Hall & Oates’ “Rich Girl”
My general feelings about the quality of Hall & Oates musical output aside, I found it pretty hard to believe what’s implied by the above image. Surely YouTube wouldn’t suggest that viewers of H2O’s first #1 hit — “Rich Girl” - then learn how to ensure their balls were still working properly and free of [...]

Audio: N.C. State AD Debbie Yow Rips Maryland’s Gary Williams, claims Terrapin coach tried to sabotage N.C. State’s coaching search
N.C. State basketball officially wrapped up its coaching search today. At a 5 o’clock presser, former Murray State and Alabama coach Mark Gottfried was announced as the new leader — and hopeful redeemer — of a Wolfpack basketball program that has fallen on hard times of late. Despite how impressive Gottfried’s comments, moxie, and general [...]

State of Kansas Bitterly Disappointed About the 2011 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament
As you can see, Kansas is totally destroying the curve for the 2011 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. Perhaps they misread the instructions and thought the test was only on the Final Four — or maybe even just last night’s title game debacle. Then again, maybe Kansans are just so wrapped up in the failures of [...]

Tar Heel Basketball Stars Paraded as Exhibits at UNC Sorority’s Spring Formal of “Jersey Chasers”
Occasionally Frump comes across something that really just makes us smile — while shaking our heads. Take this email (after the jump) from the “Team Chi OMyGod” listserv for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Chapter of Chi Omega. Apparently sisters [Reference removed by request], [Reference Removed by Request] and [Reference Removed by [...]

A Hauntingly Beautiful Walk Down Memory Lane
The always awesome Boing Boing posted a montage of classic video game deaths, set to a version of Tears for Fear’s “Mad World” that’ll make you feel like you’re living in an Atari world itself. Definitely worth a view on this dreary Monday. Isn’t it supposed to be spring? Hey, Earth, I shouldn’t still be [...]

Young lady feels the raw emotional power of Christ’s touch…
As a disclaimer, let me preface this by saying I have no issues with “Christianity” in and of itself, nor any other faith for that matter. In general, I guess you could say I’m quite open to the concept of religion, just not totally convinced by it. Stuff like this doesn’t help. That said, it’s [...]

Finally, A Positive Spin on the Pending NFL Lockout: Less Domestic Violence?
While not having a reasonable excuse for bailing on church and/or home improvement projects; losing Fantasy Football; and, of course, the collapse of the chicken wing industry are all, by all means, unsettling, at least we can take comfort in the fact that domestic life across the nation is apparently expected to improve should either [...]

Pic of the Day: ESPN flirting with disaster regarding President Obama’s NCAA bracket headline
Regardless of what Jason Whitlock may tell you, there’s a reason why ESPN is the “Worldwide Leader,” folks. They’re bold, cavalier, and consistently push the envelope of daring, innovative journalism. Take this headline for President Obama’s NCAA Tournament bracket — His Pen Is Mighty. That may seem rather pedestrian at first, but a closer examination [...]

Reminder: Frumpzilla’s 2nd Annual NCAA Bracket Contest Is Free (and yet you can still win stuff!)
Had a nice turn out last year trying to host the brackets ourselves, but this year we’ve decided to use the very user-friendly bracket manager system offered by CBS Sports. That means you have even less of an excuse for not joining the fun with Frump! Moreover, like last year, it’s completely free — no [...]

Frump Day Links: Ms. Reef Bikini Contest Edition
So, like, this year’s Ms. Reef Bikini Contest is shaping up nicely. Shocker, eh? [Uncoached] Albert Pujols semi-naked, on the other hand. Well… [No Guts, No Glory] New Yorkers choose Derek Jeter as the greatest New York athlete ever? WTF [Sharapova's Thigh] On the opposite end of a somewhat similar spectrum, NBA players crown Stan [...]
