Daily Dip: Erin Lucas

Introducing Erin Lucas, the girl who AskMen.com describes as: "A self-proclaimed serial dater, Erin Lucas is a downtown party girl with a penchant for stringing along three men at a time. Don’t get the wrong idea about her, though. This 24-year-old NYU grad isn’t promiscuous; she’s just open-minded. “Trying new things is always fun for me,” she says. “Throw me in with anyone and I’ll be fine.” That was especially evident during the first season of The City as Lucas dated a wide variety of eligible young bachelors. Unfortunately, her egalitarian approach sometimes backfires, leading her to endure some rather unsavory sleeping arrangements. “I have an invisible tattoo on my forehead that says 'make out with me’” she jokes, “and only guys who live on futons can read it.” Enough Said.

3 Things That Baffled Me (4/27)

3 things that blew my mind from the past week:

Patriots Draft Strategy – “The Patriots have traded the 22nd pick in the 2010 NFL Draft to the Denver Broncos.” The least shocking words of the entire Draft weekend. All the Pats do is trade down. I know it’s too early to fully evaluate the Draft, but for the love of God, just fucking pick someone already. The Patriots are going to regret not taking Dez Bryant, I guarantee it.

The Pats keep accumulating more and more 2nd and 3rd round picks, which I wouldn’t have a problem with if, you know, we used them to pick guys who were actually good at football! The jury remains out on last year’s class, but the Patriots haven’t drafted an impact player in the 2nd or 3rd round since 2002! Seriously, look it up.

With all that being said, by most accounts, the Patriots actually had a good draft. It’s just frustrating as all hell to watch. It takes a lot of patience to be a Pats fan. So now that I’ve vented my frustration and calmed down a little bit: In Belichick we trust.

All the fuss about Tim Tebow – Has one player’s draft status ever been so scrutinized in the history of the NFL Draft? I mean, if you’ve watched ESPN at all over the past few months, you’re probably an expert on Tim Tebow’s throwing motion, leadership skills, versatility, and even his virginity for Christ’s sake. (Apologies for using the Lord’s name in vain, Tim). There are 7 rounds in the NFL Draft, but it felt like Tebow got at least 80 percent of the coverage this weekend. The biggest reason why so many people hate him is because the sports media shoves him down our throats.

Tebow ended up going in the first round to the Denver Broncos at pick number 25. Many people have been killing the Broncos for picking him so high, and maybe rightly so, but who really knows for sure right now? That’s the beauty of the NFL draft; you never know where star players are going to come from (See: Tom Brady, round 6). I’m as sick of hearing about Tebow as the next guy, but let’s see what the kid can do before writing this off as a dumb pick.

MTV Hills Marathon – The term “Reality TV” in and of itself blows my mind, but that’s another story. If you flipped on MTV this weekend, all you saw was The Hills. For hours and hours on end. I’d rather run the entire Boston Marathon barefoot over broken glass than subject myself to the torture of a Hills marathon. How can anybody sit there and watch that fake life shit?
