Media Notes: Oddjack Loses Blog Bet

*Thank the maker for the return of Cindy Crawford. She makes a return to the model spotlight on the new cover of Maxim. We just happened to fall in love with the article title: "Still Cindy: Like a fine wine of Andy Rooney, fashion's first lady just gets better with time."

*Well, the mighty Gawker Empire has annouces the first casualty, with the canceling of Oddjack. Apparently gamblers don't know how to read. Nick Denton takes it in stride too, "Blog titles are like new TV shows. Some make it; some don't. Oddjack, Gawker Media's gambling site, was one of the ones that didn't. And it's best to cancel the show sooner rather than later." We hope the often hilarious and quite snarky in his own right A.J. Daulerio finds another blog gig soon. You see what can happen here kids?

*Speaking of cancelations. Alias is done. What are we supposed to say about this? Truthfully we are surprised it even limped into this season what with Jennifer's bun in the oven and relationship with buzzkill Ben Affleck.

*We take back anything we ever thought that might have been remotely critical of Wil Wheaton or poker or online poker or even spelling his name with two l's. We're so done with that. Mostly because this sweater is so amazing we can't even deal with it.

Sheesh, blogs are not like TV shows at all. Maybe a blog that you hire someone to write is, but I reckon 99.99% of the 20 million blogs are written by folks like us that have something to say and say it.
