topic: mike matusow
is it possible that anyone at anytime or anywhere has been more banal, more inane or less interesting than this walking train wreck? mike the mouth - or even better, MIke the Moron - is so desperate for attention that even after this creting gets knocked out he sits around the set like a smelly, wet and unwanted pet around a fire. can it be that the producers themselves are so insecure that they pick this cretin for endless facetime because they see him as entertaining? if this is entertainment i am spidey and kirsten dunst cannot keep her hands off of me. matusow blabbered so incessantly i had to delete the show five minutes into it. even the poker goddess' imploring the others to counter The Moron with some of their own chatter wasn't enough, because both John and Allen are mures, and sheiky too a vow of silence after a poor play. (btw, he escapes being lumped with The Moron cuz he has the merest bit of charm, tho he is nearly as inarticulate as The Moron; he, however, has an excuse: esl).
PRODUCERS! have some balls next time. if you have to have matusow in the lineup, fer crissakes, turn off the Moron's mike when he starts to sing the battle hymn of the republic, or starts to whistle! i mean, is this deplorable excuse for h. sapiens really that stupid!
oops, got some of my own bloopers in that post.
"creting" should be cretin.
"mures" should be mutes.
"sheiky too" should be sheiky took.
'merest bit" should be merest hint.
"esl" is english as a second language.
Mike Matusow is a great holdem player.
It's apparent that you have no idea what your talking about.
My advice is stop hating and get a life pal.
Seems to me you are the one in need of some attention.
With your extra long angry post about a man you don't even know.
Keep your day job " Mr. producer" Villager.
Why, why must we watch the players eat? Terrible distraction. If they knew how bad they look eating, they would stop.
Love the show. Hate to watch them eat!
WHAT IS URL? Anyone.
Mike is one of the most lively players on the show. The banter between him and Daniel is just one more aspect that makes the show so fun to watch. Mike's mouth is a good reprieve from many of the other matches where no words are exchanged. Bottom line...he makes good TV.
