Fans discuss whether Wayne Knight can be connected to Kevin Bacon through six degrees of separation via movies, debating whether JFK should count given its large cast.
Can anyone connect the Seinfeld cast members with Kevin Bacon thru the movies in 6 steps or less?
Wayne Knight, who worked with Patrick Swayze in "Dirty Dancing" who worked with Whoopi Goldberg in "Ghost" who worked with Ted Dansen in "That movie where he owned the car dealership" who worked with Steve Gutenberg in "Three Men And A Baby" who worked with Kevin Bacon in "Diner"
It is commonly accepted that in playing "6 degrees of Kevin Bacon" JFK should not included because sooooo many stars were in that. And that soooo many of them did not interact in the same scenes. =====================================================================
BUT JFK and Wayne Knight's role as Numa parodied in The Boyfriend was brilliant!!!
Isn't it the whole idea that Kevin has been acting with sooooo many actors, that this game was even invented. Commonly accepted, yeah right, you're just upset that Canada is out :)
No, it is that issue that JFK used so many actors in the long epic it makes SDOKB a meaningless trivial game.
Yeah, I am disappointed with the Canadian men's hockey showing. But the Canadian women "killed". Being tied this year with the USA with 18 Olympic medals each is not a bad thing. I am still rooting for Sasha Cohen to win tonight. I saw her skate a couple of years ago and she is perfection on ice when she's good. So, as a Canadian, I respect all great skaters, no matter their flag.
Shows you know nothing about curling... At least it's not a judging sport where past credits weight in more than the actual performance, like figure skating.
Any "sport" you can play with a beer in one hand and a broom in the other ain't a real sport. ;-)
Actually, they stopped that. The new scoring methods are quite subjective. They are marked for what they do on the ice. But I am waiting for full-contact figure skating - now THAT would be a sport. LOL!
OH! I just realized you are Finnish. Great hockey team this year. Looks like they can take gold - good luck.
And will Canada and Finland meet in the Curling final?
Yes they do. And sure it's not a contact sport and sure you can play it with beer in one hand, but that's just one thing I like about that. I like beer :) And the fact that the Canadian Skip is 50 years old just proves that not all sports are for the youngest and the fittest. It's a mind game...

Salming has been my hockey hero since the first Canada Cup games.
Some years ago he walked up to the small passenger boat where I was the captain. 300 passengers, archipelago only. He asked if we had a stop at one particular island where he wanted to go. We didn't really, and he looked quite disappointed when I told him so.
I asked him if it was just him and he said no, he had his parents visiting and other family. I knew it was him and that he is a national hero, and a great guy. So I said no problem, come on, we'll make an exception, a little detour.
When we approached that island other passangers started asking; Where are we? Why are we here? This is not in the time table. Can we get off too? Only when I backed out again I took the microphone and told people that this was a small giving back to a great man, and his folks.
I am so pleased I broke company rules and did what I did!
We sure did! There was a great reception for them in Stockholm yesterday, just a few blocks from me.
I must honestly say I feel sorry for the Finns. They had a great team as well! In the six man All Star Team, selected by journalists after the tournament there are four Finns. That is totally impressive! But even Niittym�ki, the best goalie, could do nothing when Nick Lidstrom fired his monster shot from the blue line. http://svt.se/svt/road/Classic/shared/mediacenter/player.jsp?d=48214&a=547281
