I will explain

Why i have not posted for a few days.

Let's go over the good stuff 1st then will get to the bad.

Seattle
Signs Ichiro threw 2032. Which means he will be getting paid from the Mariners until he's 58.
LEMME EXPLAIN.
Ichiro is signed until 2012. That 5 years 90 million dollars. 5 million dollar signing bonus and a base salary of 17 million a year. Not Bad, but it gets better. 5 million a year is deferred (kept) by the Mariners making his base $12 mill a year. STILL not bad, but it gets better. The 5 million a year he is not getting will collect 5.5% interest and he will start getting annual payments the year after he retires. This means (if i did the math right) He's gonna collect another 30 to 40 million. (How F-ing cool is that?) Along with this the Marines also give him the following per year.
$33,000.00 housing allowance
(1) new Jeep or Mercedes SUV each year (sweet!)
(4) first class round trip tickets to Japan
(1) personal trainer (like he actually needs that)
(1) interpreter (He doesn't need that either. He speaks better English than most people i know.)
Is he worth is? I say yes. He is just as quick now (at 33) as when he came over from Japan (at 28). He is hitting .352 and leads the majors with 133 hits as of Wednesday.

MLB QUICK HITS.
Sheffield get fined for arguing with the Umps. (Ya right, like it had nothing to do with the fact he made the Latino comments or the Joe Torri comments)
Ryan Howard his cough fire. We have lift off in 3 - 2 - 1 - ......
Johan Santana should be the Earlie favorite for the CY Young award.
But the Z-Pack (Cubs) who won his 12 game yesterday, is the popular front runner.
The Brewers do not get enough T.V. coverage.
Gonzo hit his 1st home run yesterday since April 12th.
A-rod is the front runner for MVP.
But Magglio Ordonez should be.

NBA
Who cares. Were still 4 months away.

NHL
Nothing.............

Tour De Steroids...
Patrik Sinkewitz sample A tested positive for testosterone (surprise!). Pat dropped out of the tour on the 17th after crashing into a spectator after stage 8 on Sunday. His sample "A" tested (get this) 6 times over the normal limit. 6 TIMES! Holy crap! what did he forget he shot up, well, 6 times? Right now Floyd Landis is at home laughing his ass off. Did i mention pat is from the German T-Mobil team?

SPEAKING OF STEROIDS
Lets get to the BAD.........

CHRIS BENOIT
Had 10 times the normal levels of testosterone in his system at the time of his death. along with a host of other drugs in his system (Xanax, and Hydrocodone). It appears that Chris had also drugged his wife and child before killing them. Sick, just sick. Like is said in a previous post, I admired Chris because of who he was in the ring. Now when people remember him, all they will remember is a phycopath.

MICHAEL VICK
Everything we read in the paper, everything we see on the news points to his guilt. We are told "innocent until proven guilty" but how can you not throw this kid under the bus and drive it back and forth a million times? Aurthur Blank must be besides himself. The Falcons organization must cringe every time his name is mentioned. Not to mention Tank Johnson, Pacman Jones and the entire Bengals teams are saying to themselves "I didn;t do anything that bad!"
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW.
Let's review what we know (or have been leaked)
#1 - HE started the ring.
#2 - He names it (something like bad ass kennels)
#3 - HE bet on the fights
#4 - HE trained the animals
#5 - HE financed the operation
#6 - He had headband and t-shirts made up (I find that just silly)
Now, for those of you who think this will take a year to come to trial, think again. The court house in Virginia has passed the "Rocket Docket". This is THE FASTEST MOVING COURT HOUSE IN THE UNITED STATES. AND the judge assigned to this case is a known hard ass on defendants. He might as well grab a can of Vaseline and bend over because in plain English, He's Fucked.
The evidence, the know evidence released already, is probley enough to convict him on the charges brought agents him. Were going to have a few (3 to 4 is my guess) to collect more evidence. People, to get there 5 minutes of fame, will come out of the shadows in droves to testify agents Vick. And my question is this, Where's his brother? Marcus went to Virginia Tech, lived in Virginia while this was going on.
Three other were indicted along with Vick. Mike is the big fish in this pond, so i would not be surprised to see the other members cut a deal for lesser charges to turn evidence agent him. Let's see what happens over the weekend, with the NFL, with Mr. Blank being back in the states, and with the prosecutors.
If in a few moths is he is conviced of this crime i say we throw him in a pit and let the dogs at him. I would like to see the same thing done to.............

THIS GUY.
Harrel Franklin Braddy was convicted tuesday of trying to kill a young mother and leaving her 5 year old daugher to be eaten alive by alligators in the Everglades. This trial had been going on for 9 years. He now faces the death penalty.
Now, he left a 5 year old girl on the side of Interstate 75 know as alligator alley. He droped her in the water, alive and beaten, for the gators to eat.
When it is finally time for this man to die, will the right groups for the "proper treatment of prisioners" protest this mans death? Can we not give him the chair and instead drop him in this part of the alley, chain him down and they the gators have lunch? Would seam fitting wouldn't it? Can i chain him down and watch from a safe distance? Please?
Better yet we could set this up as a SPIKE TV special, and run it after midnight so we would not have to edit anything. Any takers?

Will probley not post again until monday. On the road tomorrow.
