Default Memory Lane Inc. will be on the HBO show Entourage on July 22

As a huge fan of "Entourage", I found the segment regarding Turtle and Drama very unrealistic, foolish and merely gave the two a small adventure while Vince, E and Billy work their differences with Ari, who after all, has a special place in his heart for his assistant.

First off all, do you honestly think Koufax would show up for a Memory Lane auction to sign autographs? After all, this is a gentlemen who does one or two private signings a year (for a minimum of $400 per) and then disappears for the rest of the year. He has the signing habits of that famous Pennsylvania ground hog.

Second, the whole episode revolved around Koufax's possible death? If he did in fact pass away, his jersey would not have increased to that level. It's not like a signature where all productions are halted...plus, wasn't it a bit seedy and disrespectful on the behalf of the show to even make mention an impending death to a point of where the viewer thinks; "huh, is this true? I wonder how Koufax is doing and maybe I should get on eBay and start bidding just in case!".

Not to mention the whole idea of the short high percentage gain awaiting his death from a person who always has these get rich schemes, this doesn't appear to be of the Ponzi method, but a legitimate short term investment. Flipping if you will.

Anyways, the episode was truly stupid. What's next? Alan Rosen appears?
