David Hustlehoop

I thought I've seen the last of David Hasselhof with the conclusion of the NBA Playoffs and The Finals. But lo and behold , the TV star well known for 2 TV hit series of the past , is very much alive. He's one of the judges in the new NBC show called America's Got Talent produced by that nasty Brit , Simon Cowell , of the American Idol fame . The show debuted last week to mixed reactions. . Also acting as a judge is the singer Brandy . LA Lakers fans will remember her as Kobe Bryant's high school prom date .

Hasellhop first became famous as the lead star in TV's Knight Rider in the 70's. It's about the modern day version of 'Herbie' only KITT was much sleeker and full of electronic gadgets. Then , Hasellhof resurfaced as the leading man sorrounded by bikini clad beauties in Baywatch.
He made a name in Germany as a big time singer . In an interview , Dallas' Dirk Nowizki , a German native and one of the NBA's free throw leader said he relaxes himself while in the free throw line by thinking of one of Hasellhof's song. Hasellhof tried to hook up with Cowell , a bigtime record procducer in UK , to break into the UK market.

So all those appearances in hoop arenas all over the NBA were not by accident. David was doing promotionals for his upcoming show . An old Simon gimmick performed to perfection by David ' Hustlehoop '.
The thing 'though is that Dirk's free throw shooting was less than perfect in the dying seconds of game 3 against Miami . The Mavs lost that game. Many say that the game 3 loss led Dallas to eventually lose the finals. They blamed Hasellhof . His music sucks !


I will try 'Duran,Duran' next time !

Simon will make bundles of dough in his new show. Too bad America's got talent but the judges got no talent !

I predict that the Mavs will revamp their line up.

Dirk Nowitzki simply choked . That's the reason Dallas loss. Simple.

I saw the series premiere of America's Got Talent... I wasn't too impressed. The judges were horrible, all crazy-acting. I'm not sure if I'll watch it again, guess that depends on how bored I am and if there are any good shows on tv ;)
