E-Dog has some great punchlines and probably would be a great standup comedian if he actually worked at it.

i saw edog throw a empty cup into the trash once from 13 feet away. he could probably be a great basketball player if he worked at it.

we are talking "makes". As in the present. I dont have imdb pro right now, but iirc he had a very low rank (which is good).

Has last ~5 movies' (dating back to Employee of the Month) gross box office have all easily exceeded budget.

This means he is paid a lot of money for movies. Not adam sandler money, but its a linear relationship. ppl know he will produce money.

Finally throw in all his tours, all his CDs, all his DVDs, and all his advertisement gigs, and i dont think its even close. When u are a guy like dane, ppl are just gunna be using you like a mchine to make money, and in the process you get a cut.

Uh no. He actually was homeless and lived in a car.

There's no shot in hell that Dane Cook has more money than Erick.

Erick has a ****load of horses, crushes poker, and owns part of FTP.

Erick Lindgren: hes funny as heck
Erick Lindgren: yea it was so bad after 15 min i just
couldnt take it
Erick Lindgren: i didnt want to heckle him so we left
Erick Lindgren: he says where the f do you think you
are going?
Erick Lindgren: i said down tthe street to try to find a
funny comedian
Erick Lindgren: he rants some stuff aobut us being
unelployed bums
Erick Lindgren: really a pathetic effort by him
Erick Lindgren: so i say yea i am unemployed but i
might make more money than you
Erick Lindgren: he rambles some madness then i make
fun of his camouflage pants
Erick Lindgren: and say maybe if i had a showtime
special i would be funny too
Erick Lindgren: really the highlight of my drinking life
Erick Lindgren: as the 340 pd bouncer is dragging me
out
Erick Lindgren: yea i honestly didnt know much about
him i had seen one hbo special that was pretty bad
Erick Lindgren: i tried to give him a fair shot
Erick Lindgren: i did last 15 tuff minutes
Erick Lindgren: harland williams was hilarious btw
Erick Lindgren: and the other guys were good, laugh
factory is a good club

On a side note, i wish there was a way to rate the original story 5 stars, then give the thread that follows the 1 star rating it so richly deserves.

Unclear if ppl are just responding to the OP's story (which seems standard considering DC instigated), but I have zero clue where any Lindgren hate is coming from. He seems like a poker superpimp. Uber-successful, good at cards, confident and interesting without being a caricature or poor sport. I know The Internet just loves to hatecrime on people, but is there something I'm missing?

MaverickUSC · 02-17-2009, 07:18 AM

and people doubted the credibility of the op bah

Go Lindgren don't take **** from a hack like Dane Cook.

Omniheart · 02-17-2009, 10:08 AM

if lindgren has just 1% of ftp, he is worth more than cook.... but thats all relative since ftp can go busto but right now that 1% is equal to like 50milly. highly doubt cook is worth even more than that. LOL at anyone ever thought dane cook was funny. i remembered making fun of idiots who were watching dane cook like 3 years ago. This guy isn't funny now and has never been funny
