The Week From Heck For Linda McMahon

Nobody has had a worse week than Linda McMahon, and I include members of the Enfield Board of Education in this.

More than $16 million into this campaign, with offices filled with highly-paid and highly-connected staff members, Linda is drowning. A week after a Q-Poll had her trailing Dick Blumenthal by 25 points, a Rasmussen poll shows her behind by 23 points, a staggering chair-to-the-head blow for a candidate who wanted to be emerging from the Republican convention with a head of steam.

How long before a campaign shakeup on Farmington Avenue?...More?

Updates to Triple H's New Film "The Chaperone

WWE issued a press release concerning their latest WWE Studios movie:

Ray Bradstone (PAUL "TRIPLE H" LEVESQUE) is the best "wheel man in the business," but he is determined to go straight and be the best parent he can be to his daughter, Sally (ARIEL WINTER), and make amends with his ex-wife, Lynne (ANNABETH GISH).

Toronto Blue Jays Use Signed WWE Belt As Game Winning Reward

Brett Cecil stood in front of his locker, shaking his head and smiling as a few teammates laughed on their way out of the Blue Jays' clubhouse. Slung over the pitcher's right shoulder was a large black and gold wrestling belt.

It was the real thing, too. A WWE title belt signed by wrestling superstar John Cena. Hoisting the elaborate prize up for an entire question and answer session with reporters was Cecil's well-earned reward for overpowering the Yankees in a 6-1 win on Friday night at Rogers Centre.

"I just walked in here and was told I had to put it on my shoulder," Cecil said with a grin...More?
