Everybody's a Comedian: 2012 Yuks at the Expense...

...of the Mets and thier fans.

Joke number two by Jay Leno, who doesn't really seem to get how to make a joke about the Mets:

Laugh now, sucker. Better yet, don't you have some other shows to steal?

This is Letterman's bit.

Which is why when I watch late night tv, I watch reruns of Criminal Minds and NCIS.
On those shows, the assassins get punished.

And he starts in John Rocker denial?
I wonder what there is about that that Ol' John wouldn't say? Or enjoy?

If Leno's writers are the worst of the comedic bigs, Mathis is like their Georgian rookie-ball affiliate in tone and material. Like, he's collecting a paycheck for this, but he should probably start making alternate future plans, y'know?

Welcome to 2011, David Letterman.

Letterman's joke was funny, unlike most of the others.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Letterman's joke was shorter. I'm not so sure about the other thing.

So like Daniel Herrera?

Jon Stewart zings the Mets in an interview with Brad Pitt (fast forward to 3:20). It's funny cuz it's true. It hurts cuz it's true.

Jon's a true believer. Dave's jibes are from muscle memory.

Yes, that's why it's effectively funny & painful. That, and Letterman hasn't been funny since about 1989.

I loved this from Opening Day 2008.


And this summed up 2007 perfectly.
