El Hoochadore brought one hell of a strong contender to the table, as MST3K planted itself in the second place spot for now. Can today's request from fw91 bring about similar success, or even do what MST3K couldn't?
BASEketball is a 1998 American David Zucker comedy starring South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, along with Dian Bachar, Robert Vaughn, Ernest Borgnine, Yasmine Bleeth, and Jenny McCarthy. The movie follows the history of the sport (created by Zucker years earlier) of the same name, from its invention by the lead characters as a game they could win against more athletic types, to its development as a nationwide league sport and a target of corporate sponsorship. This is the only one of Parker's and Stone's works that was not written, directed, and/or produced by them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Rules-
The idea is simple. I will (at least make an attempt to) post a TV Show, a movie, a comedian, or something of another ilk each day. I will also provide a description ala wikipedia and a youtube link to a clip should one be available. All you need to do is simply vote whether you believe the item is funny or not. If you vote "funny", the item will gain 1 point. If you vote "not funny" the item loses a point. The total score at the end of the voting period will determine where that item is on the leaderboard. After 20 days, I will then crown champions for each subject (TV Show, Movie, Comedian, Other), an overall champion (highest score of all) and an eternal jobber (worst score of all). I will continue to run the thread, but I will keep track of what items we think are the funniest in each subject.
One other thing I allow is the nomination of items from you, the wrestlecrappers. If you shoot me a PM of something you want nominated, I might possibly put it up, provided it follows a few ground rules (more info below). I will say that spamming me with the same nomination will pretty much ruin your chances of it getting a shot, and so will being a jerk if your nomination isn't ran. I do not play favorites with nominations, not by item nor the users that submit them, I nominated several items by reader request that I absolutely despised the last time around and left off several things I would have put at the top of my own list. I will also add that I save the PMs of most requests, only deleting them when I have fulfilled all requests within OR if it breaks one of the request rules. I like to revisit them if I am short on ideas. Just because something you request isn't nominated right away does not mean it will be left off completely.

Next time-(Comedian) What's the deal with airline food?
(Other) The OG Eternal Jobber returns
(TV Show) Friendly faces everywhere, humble folks without temptations
(Movie) Shagadelic
