Joe Delaney–A Hero Remembered

Published on: 30th June, 2009

  It totally slipped my mind about the significance of yesterday’s date, June 29th. Thankfully a wonderful article from Mike Florio at ProFootballTalk jogged my memory. Yesterday was the 26th anniversary of Joe Delaney’s untimely passing. For those of you who don’t know or don’t remember Delaney, he was the All-Pro Chiefs running back who [...]

D-Bag of the Week for 28/06/09

Published on: 29th June, 2009

First off, let me apologize for not updating the Douchebag of the Week award for last week.  Between work, kids, and my continued laziness, I just never got around to it. But I’m back, baby! I sense a trend starting here.  On the 14th, idiot Laker fans who thought the best way to celebrate another [...]

Bad to Insult Your Ex–Worse When She’s Dating Local Mobster

Published on: 29th June, 2009

Look, it always hurts when you get dumped, especially when your ex-girlfriend is a smoking hot playmate. Trash her all you want in private, just don’t spout off to the press…like Nikolay Mihailov. Don’t be surprised if you’ve never heard of Mihailov, not too many people outside of Europe have. For the record, he’s the [...]

Ultimate Warrior’s Touching Eulogy to Wacko Jacko

Published on: 29th June, 2009

I am in no way, no way a fan of wrestling, rasslin’, or whatever you want to call it. But sometimes I do reminisce about my youth, when the WWE was know as the WWF, and guys like Hulk Hogan, Tito Santana, Ricky the Dragon Steamboat and Randy “Macho Man” Savage actually gave little (very [...]

Braves Reliever Tough…Like Chuck Norris

Published on: 27th June, 2009

In any sport, when things are going bad, sometimes you lose it and do stupid things out of frustration. If you’re Carlos Zambrano, you beat the hell out of a Gatorade cooler. If you’re Buddy Ryan, you punch Kevin Gilbride. But if you’re Jeff Bennett, a reliever for the Atlanta Braves, you punch a door–and [...]

Nats Fans Pull a Fast One on Clueless Red Sox Fans

Published on: 25th June, 2009

This story was just too good no to post, via The Sporting Blog. Washington Nationals fans don’t have too much going for them…their team is last in the majors, their attendance is abysmal (in a brand new stadium, no less), and they were gearing up for a series with the AL East leading Boston Red [...]

Is Kate Hudson Reason for A-Rod’s Fatigue

Published on: 22nd June, 2009

So you’re still recovering from a hip injury, you’ve gone 0 for your last 15, and your manager has just benched you for 2 games in Florida against the Marlins, which is kind of a kick in the ass since it is a homecoming of sorts. What do you do…what do you do? If you’re [...]

Is Favre Already Under Contract With Vikes?

Published on: 21st June, 2009

I’ve kind of made a pact with myself not to get caught up in the whole Favre to Vikings drama. But I am a weak individual. While perusing ProFootballTalk.com, one of the best sites for NFL news, rumours, Seinfeld references and Mike Florio’s kids band (they’re called Henway and they’re not too bad…kind of like [...]

Worst Assistant Football Coach Also Worst Youth Crime Watch Advisor

Published on: 17th June, 2009

From the “irony is a scumbag” files… The dude in the mugshot here is Dadrion Wilson, a 30 year old assistant football coach at Deerfield Beach High School in the Broward School District of Miami. Wilson is a great role model for the kids he’s coaching.  Seems on June 8th he was busted during a [...]

San Diego Chicken to Retire? Say it Ain’t So!

Published on: 17th June, 2009

He’s as famous a sports figure as there is…on par with Ali, Jordan and the Babe. And after a 35 year run, the San Diego Chicken is thinking about hanging them up. Well, at least the man in the suit is.  The same man who has worn that chicken outfit for all 35 years–55 year [...]
