A-ROD Photo Shoot

A-Rod posed for a photo shoot in Details magazine - just before Selena Roberts leaked the info about him testing positive for steroids in 2003. The article goes on to say about A-Rod calling up worrying about leaking information about his favorite Madonna song.

"Last night, he let slip his favorite Madonna
song. The curious relationship between A-Rod and the pop icon makes for
delicious gossip, of course. Is Rodriguez terrified that Madonna will resent the
tongue-wagging? Or, better still, has he picked the wrong song as his favorite,
and fears that an offended Madge might march her stilettos over his back? No:
Rodriguez believes that revealing the song would lead to its being played every
time he stepped to the plate during an away game"

I'm just picturing A-Rod's first at-bat this season at Camden Yards, as "Like a Virgin", or "La Isla Bonita" is being screamed over the sound-system. Even better, is if the Orioles would show a large photo of Skeletor, er, Madonna, I meant, on the big screen during the at-bat.

"I'm strong enough, I'm good enough, and Dog-gonit, People Like me"

Breaking News from the "DUH" section ....

The Cleveland Plain Dealer is reporting that the NBA is reconsidering their traveling rules (possibly making 2 extra steps legal?).... ummm... like its been called since like 1985... (?).

Secondly, the Kansas State Senate actually endorsed a resolution today, top stop Kansas from ever again playing a basketball team that starts with "B" in the month of march... Glad to see everyones hard-earned tax dollars being put to work!

The Nutt Brothers.. what a crazy bunch

Southeast Missouri State hired the brother of Mississippi head football coach Houston Nutt to coach their basketball team.... His name... Dickey Nutt. Not certain what Mr and Mrs Nutt were thinking when they were naming their son, but apparently, like his brother, he can coach.

NHL to Curb Fighting?

The NHL is proposing a new set of rules to curb fighting. Basically, they're voting on harsher penalties for "instigating" fights, and looking for ways to slow down retaliating from hard hits...

I say this is bullshit. I mean really, this just will mean HARDER hits, more broken necks, etc. (believe me I'm all for that too), but fighting will alleviate this. Look if someone is upset and he feels that he got "hit too hard", then yeah, he should get a penalty for starting a fight.




Probably start a lot of fights with this guy...

Bon Voyage Jason Taylor

The Skins released Jayson Taylor today, after Taylor refused to re-work his contract and add in mandatory offseason workouts at the team facilities - basically rendering last years trade for a 2nd and 6th round pick useless. Another wasted pickup for the offseason champs. Bon Voyage Jason... thanks for nothing.

Don Cherry - Just Shut Yer Mouth!

Don Cherry doesn't like the way Alex Ovechkin and co. celebrate after goals. He finds the 3 second fist pump, or jumping ontop of teammates to be too far over the top for him. When asked about Cherry's comments, Ovie replied with "He's a funny guy and and old guy. He likes old-fashioned hockey". Hey Ovie, what about "He stole my grandma's table cloth and is wearing it on TV".




Bottom line, how should Ovie react after he scores a goal. Let me tell you why you notice there, Don. Ovechkin scores.... a lot, and the only reason that YOU don't like it is because your little BITCH boy Crosby is always whining after playing the Caps ("Wahhh he hit me", "I dont like how he celebrates a goal, blah blah blah "). What a douche
