Perfection

I would hope Mark Buehrle buys Dewayne Wise a beer. Wow.

Win At All Costs

I guess the coach, nor the players, from The Covenant School were thinking about the christian values taught to them on Sundays when they decided to throw 3 pointers in the 2nd half. The final score of their game against Dallas Academy was 100-0.

I firmly believe the Convenant School board is embarrassed and saddened by this and they are doing the right thing, by forfeiting the game (you can read their statement here). But I think they also need to do the obvious...Fire the Coach!!!

4 to tie, 5 to break the record

While watching Tiger prepare for his birdie putt on the 72nd hole of the US Open at Torrey Pines yesterday, I told Chris with complete confidence, "he will make this 15 ft. putt"...No doubt in my mind, he will make the putt and go on to win in a 18 hole playoff. Chris agreed!!

Well, it happened...again. Well ok, it took 18 holes and 1 sudden-death to beat Roco Mediate, but it happened again. I have rooted for Tiger ever since he went pro 10 years ago, and as a fan, it doesn't get old watching this guy win again and again. You think by now I would get use to him come roaring back time and time again, maybe get bored with watching him win all the time. Nope...I never have nor will I ever in the future. You can't write this stuff. I will be telling stories about Tiger's wins to my Grandchildren someday. Just amazing!!!

Look out Jack, only 4 to tie your record and 5 to break it. I'm thinking by 2011, Tiger will have more majors then Jack Nicklaus. But if Tiger win the British or the PGA later this year, I may have to go with 2010.

Manny Being Manny and The Yankee Freak House

Many people I know that are Yankee fans don’t particularly care about Manny Ramirez and some have used some words to describe him that I won’t repeat on this blog. I guess when I see video, like the two below, of Manny being Manny, I usually laugh…probably because he is one of the best hitters in the league so why mess with something that works. Although it may seam like he is not trying hard, I think he is. The stuff he does can’t all come naturally. Can you imagine what the guy who got tagged out must be feeling?

After the videos of Manny being Manny check out the story about Jason “Roid Man” Giambi. The guy wears a gold thong to try breaking out of hitting slumps. And it gets worse…”Several teammates acknowledged they've tried wearing it (Giambi’s Thong), too, including Yankees captain Derek Jeter and outfielder Johnny Damon”.

I don’t care what Manny has done, nothing can compare to this. One pair of underwear strung between 3 different pair of butt cheeks is just unbelievably freaky.

Now grab a bucket and lets all hurl together!!

Run For Your Lives

Imagine this: sitting in the stands watching a Phoenix Suns game when all of a sudden, a 7'1", 325lbs. wall of muscle comes flying towards you from the court. That's what happen a few days ago when Shaquille O'Neal was trying to save a ball from going out of bounds. Wow...I think this would have made me poop my pants!! The second video are some teammates having a little fun with the big guy at last night's game.

Silly Involvement

According to SportsNews.Com, lawmakers have pressured the NFL to ensure more viewers could see the final game of the season between the New England Patriots and the NY Giants. The game could potentially be record breaking in that if the Patriots win, they will be the first team to go 16-0 in the regular season.

Now, I'm a big Football fan and I'm very glad I can now see the game, but cummon, is it really necessary that lawmakers get involved? Aren't there more important issues that these clowns could spend their time on? It's amazing how they can solve this problem but they can't solve more important issues that they were elected for. Are lawmakers trying to convince us that they actually work?

Stay out of sports elected officials.

Jason Whitlock and Sean Taylor

Jason Whitlock of FoxSports.Com wrote an interesting opinion about the issues surronding the murder of Washington Redskins, Sean Talor. I think he has very valid points about gang violence. Yes, this country should be investing more into social programs to try to curb violence and yes this country should make it harder for someone to buy a weapon (You don't need a AK-47 to shoot Bambi). But if people don't stop the blame game and take some responsibility, then our investment in the social programs will be like throwing money into the garbage.

Read Jason's article. It's very good.

Bulletin Boards & Sleeping Giants

If anyone needs an example of Bulletin Board Material, check out what Ryan Garko of the Cleveland Indians said after Game 5 of the ALCS.

"This Indians team is better than the Red Sox and will prove it once and for all in cramped Fenway Park. Sure, a home-field celebration would’ve been nice, but silencing Red Sox Nation in its house will be just as sweet. The champagne tastes just as good on the road as it does at home,” first baseman Ryan Garko said."

Needless to say, it was plastered all over the Red Sox locker room before game 6. Obviously the quote worked and the Sox went on to crush the Indians 12-2 and force Game 7, Sunday Night at Fenway Park.

I guess Papelbon was right: He woke a sleeping Giant!!!

Time For Some Football

Well, it's Superbowl Sunday and for a lot of people today is more sacred then most holidays. Time to shove so much food and beer in your mouth that you forget about the game. To get into the spirit of the day, take a look at this video of John Madden (Frank Caliendo). This guy is great.

I'm Rich, I'm Stupid and Yes, I Need My Weed

Although Atlanta Falcons star quarterback has everything a grown man needs, he still needs his weed. According to the Smoking Gun and All Headline News Michael Vick tried to carry a water bottle onto a plane. After the TSA told Vick that water bottles were not allowed, Michael made a big fuss. TSA officials wonder why he would care so much about water and kept the bottle for futher testing instead of following procedure and throwing it into a recycle bin. It was later revealed that the bottle had a secret compartment where pot residue was found....Now the feds are investigating.

Vick is a clear winner of this weeks Moron award. I don't have a problem that he smokes pot, but how stupid can you be to take your drug smuggling container onto a airline? They may bring him up on charges.

Dumb, Dumb, Dumb.

Big D Goes Big Time

Check out the latest photos of the Dallas Cowboy's new 1 Billion Dollar Stadium. What's really crazy is they are keeping the hole in the roof...The hole, that legend says, is there so God can watch his favorite team play. Those crazy Texans strike again. The stadium will have a capacity of 100,000 and is set to open in the summer 2009.

Also check out the New Dallas Cowboy Stadium Gala hosted by Bob Costas. WOW!!!
