That large puppy was an Alaskan Malamute…and they mentioned that he weighed 44 pounds…at 14 weeks! In other words…the Herman Johnson of Puppy Bowl IV.

I was hoping Michael Vick would be the commentator for the Puppy Bowl, but since the last one he attended, all the participants were “allegedly” executed or electrocuted for getting scored on and losing the game, Animal Planet had to pass until these “allegations” were cleared up…………..there are just not enough athletic dogg QB’s anymore that can stay outta trouble……

Norm Chow – The Liar Dept:

Saw the gutty little bruins video and I do not know what was worse:

1) Neheisel the Weasel hamming it up for the gutty little bruin fans with small brains, or

2) Norm Chow saying that “he and his family” are happy to be bruins. Happy to be bruins? the family too? He has a son at USC! He should have been honest and say that he is happy to get an opportunity to stick it to Pete Carroll, but happy to be a bruin? That is like Borat saying he is happy to be from that dreary village in Kasakstein, or whatever that was.

But it would have looked like players trying to tackle Techmo Bowl Christian Okoye.

The part where one of the terriers was charged with a foul for guarding the water bowl was funny.

They should have let one of Vick’s dogs in the mix. It could have been a sequel to Cloverfield. Wrong on so many levels.

@ John (#10): I beg to differ, sir. When Animal Planet films puppies playing for three hours and then airs it, *we all win.*

I watched Puppy Bowl I and II…the best part was when one puppy took a whiz, and the guy with the ref shirt immediately threw a flag.

Sure, it was a good football game, but last night was my first time watching the puppy bowl. I may never watch another superbowl.

I know I’m going waaaaay out on a limb here, but I’d guess that the “refs” and well over 50% of the people watching Puppy Bowl IV were very, very high.

Burmese Mountain Dogs look similar, but are hopped up on methamphetamine and carry AK-47s in their mouths at all times.

As a Cal fan this has me worried. Is the Nobel Foundation involved in this? Are we going receive the Jim Thorpe treatment and have all past and present Nobel Laureates associated with Cal stripped of the award?

I saw “Berner” and thought this was a new record for a state of Alabama slap fight. I almost wish I had been right.

As for Neuheisel, he’ll get more mileage out watching how Ben Howland puts a winning team together than yapping away in a crumbling edifice. Still, he can always hope to reach the coaching heights of Jim Harbaugh next year.

Sorry – there are 2 breeds, Burmese and Bernese- I spelled the wrong one.

The Berner — as in Berne, not Burma — was cute, but the malamute looked so lost, with all the terrier puppies running underneath him. Kind of reminded me of the Appy St-Michigan game.
