Monday links + bonus mini rant

Can somebody please tell me why Dane Cook is all over my TV? For baseball and stupid movies and other crap. I can't for the life of me figure out why people think this guy's funny. And to top it off, he's a Red Sox fan (supposedly). And while I'm going off, how many of you knew 50 Cent has his own book line? I came across it at Borders the other week. I'm 100% sure he writes them himself. And by "100% sure he writes them himself" I mean "he has a ghost writer who gets 5% while he pockets the rest." Man, there's selling out, and then there's selling out. 50, you've sold out so badly at this point that I can't even take your raps seriously anymore. I keep expecting you to drop a line in your songs that commands me to drink Vitamin Water. Because nothing says street like Vitamin Water.
