-- Two teenagers dressed in Celtics jerseys were sentenced to rehab and community service for breaking into a Mission Hill apartment in June. If Patrick Diamond, 18, of Greenwich, Conn., and Daniel Spillane, 19, of Marblehead, meet those terms, their cases will be dismissed in one year.[WCVB]

Everybody's favorite just-not-that-funnyman Dane Cook was on Conan Wednesday night, and since we're days behind in everything, we only just watched the fabulous awkwardness that was Cook on Conan. Our buddy O'Brien was quite obviously disinterested in most of what Daney boy had to say, but he did his hostly best to accommodate Cook's inane stories about heading into the wrong dressing room and also having a stupid wife who doesn't understand that a "universal remote" doesn't work from anywhere in the world. Gee, it's so hilarious when women are dumb! it's even more hilarious when you've voluntarily committed yourself to one of the dumb ones!
An Intro to Season 2 of NESN's Comedy All-Stars from Tom Lewis on Vimeo.Starting tonight and running for the next two months, Friday nights on NESN will be capped by what Boston does best: sports and comedy! Filmed before a live audience last December at Boston's historic Wilbur Theatre, comics from both Boston and around the country converged to bring NESN's audience, which is pretty much everybody, their hilarious take on life and sports in particular in the second season of "NESN's Comedy All-Stars".
Dane Cook isn't necessarily one of our favorite comedians. Whether it's commercials, movie posters, comedy contests, or dog poop, we've found more than a few things to pick on him for over the years. Still, we don't completely begrudge the dude his success. If you can find a way to fool people into thinking you're funny, then capitalize on it continually, more power to you—and may your relatives not turn out to be asshats.
We really love Dane Cook, so we were sad to find out that we missed Dane Cook Day. Apparently September 17, besides being Constitution Day (which we also kinda skipped over) and Halfway to St. Patrick's Day (which we actually did celebrate, though not with a Guinness), is now Dane Cook Day.
We've been ready to write off Dane Cook for a long time (we're still bitter about those "There's Only One October" commercials last year). Arlington's finest most famous export has been raking in the cash and selling out (large venues, that is) with essentially the same comedy material and frat guy schtick for years, while his movies have been much less commercially or critically successful. Seriously, did anyone actually see Good Luck Chuck?
Dane Cook’s comedy isn’t the only thing that stinks. According to the tenants of his apartment complex, the comedian turned wannabe actor turned wannabe singer/songwriter who was recently voted the worst comedian of all time, doesn’t pick up after his dog. The alleged crapping canine's owner spent yesterday in a Beverly Hills court dealing with charges from his West Hollywood residence and could be evicted for being a party pooper. Page Six is reporting that his neighbors hate him (well, duh?) and he’s been notified three times about cleaning up after his dog, Beast. During the first day of the trial, the court watched video of Dane’s dog taking care of business. California's tax dollars hard at work.
The world is filled with unfunny people. You live with them, work for them, you’re probably dating one. But it’s different when they’re sucking on a small scale. It’s when they suddenly get a wild hair up their ass and decide to take their act on the road with dreams in becoming the next Pryor. The sad thing is, it’s usually the people void of any talent that go further than the ones who do.
Now that filmmakers have rediscovered Boston, the city wants to take advantage of it by building a movie studio in Weymouth, the Herald's Scott Van Voorhis reports:
- SFist saw Christmas Day turn tragic after a Siberian tiger escaped from her pen at the San Francisco Zoo, killing a visitor and mauling two others.
- Phillyist counted down the top ten items on Philadelphia's New Year's wish list.
- Gothamist looked at the wooden bikes being offered for NYC's first bike share program on Governors Island.

The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist...

A tipster has announced that soccer star, husband of Posh, friend of Cruise David Beckham was spotted in a local Cheesecake Factory. Beckham was in the area with the LA Galaxy to play a game with the New England Revolution. He didn't actually play, though, so he had spare time to enjoy New...
Who says Boston doesn't have any celebrities? Since Norm and Cliff don't grace our Thursday night televisions and heralding Good Will Hunting has become passé a lot of people are talking about how we don’t have much celeb power here in the Hub. Forbes Magazine takes a break from rating the richest people in America and the world to take focus on the 100 hottest celebrities – based on both influence and on their annual...
