    Whether or not this was planned with Eminem changes the whole meaning of it and level of hilarity for me. If it was staged, I vaguely admire MTV for goosing one of its star dipshits. If it wasn't staged, it's just another back-scratching publicity stunt, ho hum. Eminem comes off as lame either way.

    This was pretty wicked, but Kiefer Sutherland's weeping tribute to Ben Stiller totally topped this.

    The folks at Fox & Friends didn't seems to think it was staged. But then they think aluminum tubes is an ingredient for a "new-cular" bomb, so I am not surprised.

    For some reason I had flashbacks to when Howard Stern descending to the stage as FartMan in ass-less pants and had Luke Perry grasp his buttocks.


    Look, after Owen Wilson fell from the wire in the WWF and died, would anyone continue to sit there as someone fell on them from above? My vote is that he was part of a "bit", but didn't know all the details.

    @OGH!_GitEmSteveDave:
    Given his flirtations with suicide, Owen Wilson might decide to shuffle off this mortal coil if Bruno landed on him, too, but it was Owen Hart who bit the dust trying to do a flying Wallenda.

    After all the Triumph business, you'd think Eminem would not take himself so seriously anymore.


    Sascha could have found a better victim, too.

    As another person who works for the blasted company said in another board, this was staged WITHOUT Eminem's knowledge. Bruno's mic was picking up Em's voice, not a seperate one.
    Producers and directors already have seating charts, so it was easy to have Bruno test and stage a landing in the seating area that was assigned to Eminem

    At :34 and at :19 you can clearly hear Eminem with Cohen no where near him. The only way to do that in a large auditorium full of screaming people is to have a mic on the guy. End of story.

    @Mixiboi: I have to agree. And it's way too like Eminem to get mortified and storm off than to admit that he and his homies are homophobic and agree to be part of the whole scenario. Also, I don't think he was miked up; his voice wasn't clear enough.

    So, I was summoned over here by the top secret cabal on GMAIL where we do nothing but obsess over Ensconced and how we can further expose the true identity of this very important anonymous internet personage...


    So, Cajun Boy, are the Tigers going to even dress out given this year's SEC lineup?

    @the cajun boy: Sugar, y'all are about the only hope left of stopping the damned Gaturds this year. And I don't envy your boys that position one little bit. Georgia ball is over before we even get started, but it'll be fun having low expectations and playing without the ranking hype hanging on the Dawg's every unhealthy bottom wipe.
