Going Poston! - This is a Flash parody about the NFL's most notorious player agents, the Postons, Carl and Kevin. This article from a month ago, pretty much sums up why they're becoming so infamous.

For non-NFL following people, the player in the middle is Kellen Winslow Jr.. He was drafted by the Cleveland Browns with the 6th overall pick in this year's NFL draft. While Kellen is touted as one of the best athletes to come out of the NCAA in recent memory, his reputation for being a head-case isn't doing him any favors (noted by the "I'm a soldier" comment). So when he decided to go with the Poston brothers as his agents, many teams around the league, including Washington, decided that his value as a team player had dropped.

Witty, it's a good thing you weren't talking about this Poston...

Beloved character actor, game show staple, handyman and perennial amnesiac who helped make stars like Steve Allen, Robin Williams and Bob Newhart look good (and recently married the also-Newhart-connected Suzanne Pleshette). If you dare dis my man Tom, I'll personally disconnect TVLand from your cable TV with a shovel!

Speaking of mascots, the Great Tom also did the voice of "The Capital City Goofball" on The Simpsons.

Kinda Poston-Modern of it all, ain't it.

Why am I not surprised that a MeFite may be stealing cable?

Well, your definition (perhaps) and others may call it stealing (and I can understand that)... but I call it "plugging the TV into the wall and VOILA! cable!" It ain't pretty and it's basic and the channels don't match, but it works.
