The Scoop for May 4, 2020

Crashing Zoom meetings have kind of become a thing. This one was kind of fun though, because Will Ferrell crashed a Seattle Seahawks virtual team meeting.
Will says he doesn’t do Special Teams and is only going to play about 12 plays a game.
I know it’s a joke, but can you imagine the ticket sales for a game where Will was actually going to play 12 plays? I’d watch that.


Chris Evans is hopping on the All In Challenge and he’s not doing it alone. Nope, he’s giving you the chance to virtually hang out with him and a few friends.
Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, and Jeremy Renner
I know it’s not in person, but come on. A private online hang out with The Avengers? Are you kidding me? That’s awesome. Plus Chris says they might even play some games.
Maybe Scattergories
Chis seems like a Scattergories kind of guy, doesn’t he?


Christopher Lloyd has been in some classic movies: Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Clue and so many more. So what was his favorite scene? The one in “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” where his character takes out a cartoon shoe.
He calls it “payback” for all the times Disney movies traumatized him as a kid.
