The Scoop for Feb. 19, 2019

If you watched any of the NBA All-Star coverage, you may have heard some odd things coming out of Steph Curry’s mouth. Things like, quote, “Gotta be like the Energizer Bunny”. You can thank Jimmy Fallon for that. He challenged Steph to drop in weird phrases during his weekend interviews. And while the Energizer Bunny was fun, this was my favorite. Quote, “Just looked good from the time it left my hand. And I was like Wham-Bam-Can-of Ham it’s goin’ in.”
That’s my new T-Shirt. Doug: Wham Bam Can of Ham

I’m not even going to pretend I understand this experience, but thanks to Sarah Silverman, I have a much better insight into bikini waxing. Sarah documented her first . . . and last . . . bikini wax on Instagram. And I have to say, she was way more under control than I would have been. I mean, I squeal like a pig when a band aid pulls the hair on my wrist when I try to take it off. So ladies who go through that, my hat is off to you.

Fun Police Warning: The linked videos say “butt”.

Back in the day, Mike Tyson was ready to fight anybody. And if he had gotten his way, Mike would have fought a silverback gorilla.  If you belive him, he tried to pay a zookeeper $10,000 to let him fight it. The zookeeper said nope. Man, if that happened today, they’d put it on Pay Per View and Mike and the gorilla would both make 10 Million bucks.

BONUS SCOOPAGE:
Chrissy Tiegen teases her appearance on Family Feud. While she can’t say if they won or lost, she was apparently wounded during the show. And maybe drunk.
