On his latest CD/DVD, “My Weakness Is Strong,” Patton Oswalt talks about waiting for the birth of his daughter. “I just hope that she gets my looks and personality. ... With this face and my outlook, her whole life, it’ll just be a sheet cake made of victory,” he says.

Do you want Tejada playing 3B next season for Astros?
SportsJustice (Free subscription) | 11/08/2009
... and goings of the last few days. Let's go to the numbers. Carlos Lee, Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt are on the books for $44.5 million in 2010 . Kaz Matsui, Brian Moehler and Geoff Blum have signed for deals worth $10 million. Wandy Rodriguez and Hunter Pence made around $3 million combined in 2009. You can probably pencil them in for at least $15 million in 2010. So we've filled eight roster...

Community, "Home Economics": The fairly odd couple
What's Alan Watching? (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009
... in a single episode, Eric Christian Olsen got to come back as small-nippled Vaughn, and Patton Oswalt joined the show's increasingly awesome guest ensemble as a nurse at the student health center. One concern: Pierce's revenge rap on Vaughn was fine, but I'd grown accustomed to the Abed/Troy tags. I don't want the show to force one if it's not there, but it's nice to have some reassuring...

... sex by putting players and exploiters of women into comas. The cast has some known names: Patton Oswalt is one of the mysterious men who explain the list to Blank, Neil Flynn ( Scrubs ) is a buddy, and Leslie Bibb ( Iron Man , Popular ) one of the future women. A standout is Mindy Cohn ( The Facts of Life ) as Blank’s assistant, who tries her best to keep him sane while he struggles with...

Review: Community - Home Economics
TV Squad (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009
... going to such lengths to try and break up his date, but it allowed us a short cameo with Patton Oswalt as the school's doctor. Within five sentences, he was hitting on Annie, so it's nice to see that the dysfunction affects everyone on staff at the school. It was a little surreal, the whole scenario with Pierce trying to chuck paper wads in Jeff's throat during Spanish class. Chang's excitement...

Astros could win with another $100 million

... million, go ahead and bring back Miguel Tejada. If the Astros had that extra $100 million, Roy Oswalt could actually be the forgotten man in the rotation. Hey, go ahead, name your rotation. No need to bottom feed or search for those injury retreads. Forget the Shawn Chacons, Mike Hamptons, Woody Williams, Jason Jennings and Russ Ortizes. Instead of taking the risk of Erik Bedard or Ben Sheets,...

... in “Ratatouille”) and a forthcoming book of autobiographical-yet-fictional humor essays, Mr. Oswalt has less time to do nothing, but he keeps coming back to stand-up. “It’s one of the last sort of fascist posts in entertainment,” he said. “There’s no band meetings; there’s no committee. It’s whatever’s in my head I can talk about. There’s something so great in that.”Likewise, between ’s...

Cook, Tracy Morgan, Patton Oswalt and Artie Lange dished about everything from the difficulties of quitting heroin to the difficulties of keeping up with the Kardashians.

Phillies 8 Yankees 6
SportsProf (Free subscription) | 11/03/2009
Observations: 1. So now the Series goes back to New York, with the Yankees leading 8-6. Unless Joe Girardi summons Chad Gaudin to the mound, the Yankees' starters both will be working on short rest. Since the 2004 NLDS (when Roy Oswalt beat Jaret Wright), starters in the post-season working on short rest are 0 and 7. The record for starters working on short rest since 1999 is 9-28. The edge...

... Lance Berkman, to the Detroit Tigers for Fernando Rodney & Miguel Cabrera. Then trade Roy Oswalt and Kazuo Matsui to the Texas Rangers for Kevin Millwood or Neflia Felix & Chris Davis. Now nobody get carry away. The Astros would have a Starter in Millwood, Felix, Davis, a first baseman in Chris Davis he has some power. And I almost for got the Astros can trade Carlos Lee to the American...
