NOW THAT LEBRON JAMES HAS BEEN ELIMINATED FROM THE PLAYOFFS...AGAIN, WILL HE STAY IN CLEVELAND?

Wow! Who woulda thunk it? The Cavs (with the best regular season record in the NBA this year) get ousted from the playoffs by the aging Boston Celtics. Now that LeBron is out the BIG question in Cleveland is...will he stay in Cleveland? LeBron James will be an unrestricted free agent this summer and the experts say he's gonna bail. Where will he go? Some say Chicago Bulls while others say he'll join Jay Z in New Jersey and play for the Nets. Perhaps he'll go to New York City? Regardless, it's gonna be a very exciting off season in the NBA.

I HATE IT BUT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GONNA LOSE JACK BAUER. DANG! I LOVE THIS SHOW!

With hourly torture and beloved characters dying on '24,' is there any hope that Jack Bauer will walk away with a slight smile on his face -- or any face at all -- when the show finally ends on May 24? '24' fans can forget about a happy ending, as it's only going to get uglier. Executive producer Howard Gordon warns that Jack walking off into the sunset is not in his horoscope. "This show is a tragedy and so to give Jack a happy ending just didn't feel authentic," Gordon said in a conference call.The show's creators did try out "a couple of different endings for size," said Gordon. "One thing we tried and didn't work was a happily-ever-after for Jack."So go into the final episodes with your game face on, because it's never going to get easier for Jack -- especially as he's had to deal with the death of Renee Walker on the show. Even her death was planned very early on: "This was one we had come up with at the very beginning," said Gordon. And her death will only send Jack further into a darker place.That said, Gordon points out that at least they gave fans "a happy beginning" at the start of the season. Gee, thanks for that. That would be Jack promising to retire from terrorist smack downs and spend more time with his family.Of course, he got pulled into one last job and it will not end pretty. Worse still, Gordon promised "a final moment that is very specific to the series finale," which he calls a "punctuation mark."There's nothing worse than a bad ending with an exclamation point ... unless it's a question mark.

SO EXCITED TO RETURN TO THE STATION WHERE IT ALL STARTED FOR ME IN MINNEAPOLIS!

I got the warmest welocome ever when I was in the station the other day. A couple more corporate hoops to jump through and I'll be back on the air. Shout out to Lucas and the BIG MAN Rob Morris for all the strings he pulled to get me in the door. Now, it's time to do my thang!
Winners WIN! That's what WE do...that's ALL we do!

"IRON MAN 2" ROBERT DOWNEY STEALS THE SHOW...DUH!

The Robert Downey Jr.-starring action flick "Iron Man 2" kicked off the summer blockbuster movie season over the weekend. The movie earned $133.6 million, which beat the $98.6 million the first "Iron Man" movie brought in during its first weekend in theaters in 2008. Internationally, the film has grossed $194 million, bringing its global total to $327.6 million.
"Iron Man 2" failed to break the weekend record though, that title is still held by "The Dark Knight," which grossed $158 million in its opening weekend. "Iron Man 2" stands as the fifth highest opening weekend ever.
I saw it on IMAX and was blown away by not only the technology (I'm kind of a nerd). But the performances from Mickey Rourke, Don Cheadle, Sam Rockwell (his dance scene was slick) and ofcourse "DaMan" RDJ! Robert Downey Jr. is the only guy I know who can go from "Sherlock Holmes" to "Tony Stark" and not miss a beat.
Keep Bangin dude! Gotta see Iron Man 2...in theatres now.

P.S. don't be a doof like me and leave the theatre too soon. Wait for the bonus scene after the credits. Now I gotta go back.

WHO GOT THE BOOT ON DANCING?...

After performing in a cha cha challenge — and receiving plenty of high marks from the judges — one of the remaining contestants and their pro partner were voted off of Dancing with the Stars on Tuesday.
Pamela Anderson and Damian Whitewood are out of the competition. And Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy joined the pair in the bottom two.
Judge Bruno Tonioli called Anderson “a great performer” and “somebody who brings life to every character she plays.”
She thanked her dance partner, saying, “You taught me so much,” and vowed to support the remaining contestants as they forge ahead.
“I wish everybody continued success,” she said. “I love everybody here.”
