Nothing but Nascar

NASCAR
With my computer at home in the shitter and having to post at lunch not sure how i am going to work this but today is nothing but NASCAR.

Jeff Gordon
F'd me big time. Maybe i will change my view in a day or so but for right now i should just bend over, spread my checks and lube up. I had him this week in my pool. TWO LAMPS TO GO AND HE SPINS OUT AND FINISHED 9TH. WTF!? Good thing the TV i was watching at the time was not mine. MF'er cost me 42 points in the long run. Ya, he finished in the top 10 but he could have scored the first 200 point race of the season. Pissed was not the word. (I quit smoking this weekend on Friday, Made it all the way until Sunday at 5:45pm. Gordon spins, Smoke wins, Dave gets pissed, runs to the store buys a pack of smokes for 6 bucks. I need to quit gambling, And smoking, AGAIN.) My F'ing ass is still sore this morning.

Smoke keeps Rolling
(I love that line.)
3rd win in 4 races. If anyone had momentum on there side rolling into the chase it's Smoke. If he loosed 15lb's he could have shaved .003 seconds off his time. I the last 4 weeks Tony has done nothing but shut his mouth and drive (good choice.) Not sure if Mr. Gibbs said anything to him or not but all of his and Zippy's interview have been yes and no answers.

Speaking of shutting his mouth
Dale (from what i have read) did not say much after the DNF for the blown engine. Tony JR. on the other hand may have opened his mouth alittle too wide. I saw the post race interview on ESPN and Tony said something like "If we make the chase, We make the chase. If we don't, We don't. (pretty sure that's about his exact wording of the situation.) I know Tony's gonna be out of a job and all at the end of the year and all but come on......
Have we given up? Your only 13th in the points. It's not an insurmountable defecate to make up.
Can we get off the pity pot and put your foot to the floor and maybe start you interview process for your job next year?
Enough of that.
Let's get on to the fun parts of the race.

NASCAR.COM's HEADLINE WAS......................
Montoya and Harvick almost come to blows.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
That was a half a bitch fight, AT BEST. Neither took of there helmet, Hans, or Gloves. I watched the "fight" or altercation if you will, and they were three open hand shots way from being call Juanitta and Kirstie.
They did not remove there helmets. almost none of these guys are perty to begin with but WTF. Kevins the biggest pussy this side of the mississippi (his wife got custody of his balls on there wedding day) no way he was throwing his helmet off. Juan, on the other hand, atleast he pushed Kevin a tad. I thought that he had gotten the better of the "fight" until i saw hos post race interview. What was he wearing on his face? Did he borrow a pair of sunglasses from Paris Hilton? If some of the other drivers like this kid the'll take him to the NASCAR store and buy him a real pair of shades. Holy Crap, Looked like he had stepped out of a fucking fashion mag. Then he went on a Paris Hilton rampage. Here is a couple of quotes.
"I no like what he said to me"
"He was no nice in hes words to me"
"I respect him no more."
He sound like SLEPPY GONZOLES.
"see serior~ Da cheese, She s in da fridge." Zzzzzzzz.......

(I't's almost 1 o'clack. I gotta wrap this up)

MY LAST SU?GGESTION TO NASCAR.
Fill the infield with water on the road courses, or atleast mud.
Like when Denny Or Carl went into the grass, would that have been sooo much better if it had been water and mudd instead or grass and gravel?

(and a side bar. On the road races can we get Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan from the UFC to announce those? Those of you who watch the UFC will get the joke. Those who did not, tune into spike tv thursday night after 10pm.)

More tomorrow.

RANDON DAY

I have been busy all week and have not had a minute to post. I will be all over the place today.

PARIS KISSES KAHNE
I am so sick of reading about this dumb bitch every time i click on the net or watch the news. Now there was a story on yahoo sports saying she was seen kissing Kasey Kahne. (cheek kiss and she also said he's hot). Can we use Paris as a f-ing speed bump? I am so sick of seeing here even the old porn takes are no longer interesting.

ALL I WANT THIS WEEKEND IS A HOME RUN
By Barry and A-rod. all this breaking into games to watch them hit is killing me. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion the way these guys are hitting. Conbined for there last 20 or so at bats there hitting something like .125. ZERO HOME RUNS! I just wish who ever is on the mound wants to be the answer to a trivia question. Toss the the balls underhand and lets get this over with.

A-ROD HAD THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY
During there 16-4 schilacking of the white socks. Ozzy got tossed, rocket lasted what an inning and a 3rd? Balls were flying out of the park and A-rod could not join the fun.
HOW MANY TIMES DID HE HEAR THIS AS HE CAME TO BAT?
"Your turn A-ROD!"
REJECTED !

CULPEPPER SINGS WITH THE RAIDERS
He's 30. In the league for 8 years (so he's washed up) 6ft 4in 265lb. You get him arrested and he's the perfect fit for the Raiders.

GAGNE TO THE SOX
Smart on his part. Sox are a contenter this year, This is the best chance of him going deep in the playoffs. Good protection for Paps as the closer. And it may give the Japanese guy a rest.
Dye to the redsox would have closed the deal and you could have almost handed the Sox the WS championship baring a titanic meltdown.

Atlanta. THE winner of the trade deadline. The gave Bobby Cox a "Win right now" Team. Pensil in Atlanta deep into September.

Yankee's - Got squat. They traded Proctor (mid 90 fast ball and a work horse) for Wilson Betemit (who?). 26yr old infielder who can play 2nd, short and 3rd but is inconstant at all three.

Padre's -
got and outfielder (Mackowaik) 3rd baseman (Ensberg) and bull pen help (Ledezma). This should be enough to get them back on track, but judging by the "fight" they had the other day i am not sure.

Other than that, Nothing. the deadline came and went and the only two teams that made any kind of sifnigant noise were the sox and braves. Vages has 10-1 and 16-1 odds of both teams making it to the series. (can we parlay that?)

BOSTON, BOSTON, BOSTON
Please come to Boston for the spring, she said NO, You come home to me.
Over the last week it almost seams like home coming. I was wriong about the Celtics singing Allen. Allen and Paul Peirce and no good together, BUT, Throw KG in the mox and you have a perfect "BIG 3". Baring injuries, I expect them to make it deep into the playoff series. This is also your "Win Now" team situation. These guys will only stay together for about 3-4 years tops. KG will be 34-35 and at the end of his career, Peirce will be hitting 32 or so and starting to tail. Allen will be 35-36 and still active for a point guard but his defence will be half of what it once was. If boston does not have, or at least appeared in a championship series this will not have been worth it.
(Now someone please tell the Briuns to follow suite?)

CFB, Collage football
I know the coaches pole should be out any time now. I would guess USC should be at the top of the heap, but........
I would like to throw in LSU and Rutgers (yes Rutgers.)
LSU because it is there 1st "real" seson back.
Rutgers, yup. After last years run he should have a solid freshman class.
My other must-watch team is Boise State. After last years bowl game, no one will ever forget that team or team name.

Michelle Pfeiffer
Is back and sexier than ever. I say the previews for stardust and she looks HHHhhhhhOOOOOoooooTTTTTTttttttt..........
In the words of Homer Simpson. Hmmmmm... Pfei-ffer.....
I love this chick. Something about her that gets me.
And now at 48 (I think) she is still one of the hottest chick in Hollywood.

Which brings me to....
I am soo glad i am growing up in the age where age is getting expanded. Lemme explain....
70 is the new 50, 60 is the new 40, 50 is the new 30, 40 is the new 20, ect, ect.
Being 36 (and still looking good) I could not be happier.

Gotta run.

More monday. (maybe)

I was wondering aloud this weekend

And this is what came up.

I wonder what Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn really think....
About the state of baseball. Steroids, Bonds, The Comish, 500 homer mark droping like flies in a bond fire (camping reference #1). Cal and Tony played a combined 41 years and barely make the 500 mark combined. Cal was a spotty power hitter with flashes of brilliance. Tony was the ROCK of the Padres. 3 Batting titles.
Sure tony had a little controversy after he retired about his extra marital affairs, and everyone gave Cal some grief about "playing while hurt" but you never head of them "juicing". (There a joke in there about Tony , I just can not bring myself to write it down).

WWBBD
What will Barry Bonds do...
After he hits 756? (He's stuck on 754) I hope he ties (or breaks) the record in L.A. Will he flip off the crowd? Will he flip off Bud? Will syringes fly down from the rafters? Will he not give a crap (yup)? Or does he sit and try it again on the next home stand.

Can we shorten Teixeira to TEX?
Just came across the wire that Tex will be in Atlanta before long. In exchange for Jarrod Saltalamacchia and reliever Ron Mahay (Mayday Malone?) Between Tex and Salt who need to shorten there name more? Mark will be a good pickup for Atlanta. No one will want to face there line up in post season. The Mets better move on someone or there gonna get smoked as Atlanta is passing by.

WICZT
What is Carlos Zambrano thinking then his batting average is .291 and opponents are hitting .221 agents him. That's a 70 point swing. Imagine you a hitter who goes 1-4 that day agents him, or worse 0-4. Then you look across at ZPAK and see his line.
3-4 (hitting) 8IP, 9K, 0BB, 14th win on the season.\
Has he just rocketed past the field for front runner in the CY Young? (YES!)

Tour-de-Steriods.
Bad news - No one cares that that Alberto Contador became the youngest champion in a decade. No one cares he rode for the discovery channel. No one cares he only won by a margin of 23 seconds. No one cares that Alberto (just two years ago) had his brain operated on. No one cares he also won the white jersey that is given to the best your rider, voted on by the entire field.
Good news - My dealer is flying back tonight.

HSIMV
How screwed in Mike Vick?
Tony Taylor has pleaded guilty and agreed to testify for the state.
(sniff, sniff)
You smell that?
(sniff, sniff)
Like a combination of sneakers and jersey's being throw on a fire (camping reference #2)
(sniff, sniff)
Smells like.....
(sniff, sniff)
Michael Vick's career going up in smoke.
The way i look at things right now, he would have been better off getting cough with drugs, a hooker or both. Nothing will ever bring his career back. For all intensive porpoises you can call him Mike Titanic.

SOMFP
Speaking of moron football players...
Pacman's got a new gig. TNA villain. Good fit.

On to the weekend.
We camped with the nephews this weekend and i realized why i have not had children. (other than being male)
#1 - The pout constantly.
#2 - They wake up at 6:30am ON A SUNDAY.
I am not a morning person. At my best i am ready at 8ish on Saturday or Sunday after a cup of coffee and a glass of muscle milk. (http://www.musclemilk.com/ for those of you wondering). 1st thing out of there mouth is "Uncle Dave, When we going to the pool?". Now I'm a bit of a smart ass to begin with and some of the responses coming out of my brain are just not right. But i was good. I told them that we would go when i got back from the gym.
NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
They wanted to go right then. I just spent the last of the night hours with them in the pool and watching the Fantastic 4 before bed. Then after i did not respond they started bombarding me with questions.
We gonna go to the pool when?
Are we going fishing?
When is lunch?
Can we catch bullfrogs?
Can i watch a movie?
I left.
I went to the gym. For 2 and a half hours. And worked out. Intensely. Like a maniac. I'm paying for it this morning. I hurt, alot.
between the pool with the kids, the gym, the 8 smores bars i ate while sitting by the fire, and the mountain bike ride i took in the rain (thunder and lightening) I am struggling.
Where am i going with this?
#1 - For those of you who have kids, God Bless You.
#2 - for those of you who do not have kids, If you get your nephews or who ever for the weekend and you have one like mine, remember this.
Feed them Jolt and Chocolate before there parents pick them up.

Morons, Morons and more Morons.

NBA REFS.
This story will be beat to death until it is a CBS movie. Tim Donaghy.
That's MR. MORON to you pal.
I'm baffled everytime i read something else. He was already under investigation by the NBA for gambling but they let him ref anyway, They let him ref playoff games, let let him ref "end of season" games that had implications to the playoffs? This goes to so many new levels of WTF?
David Stern called this "The worst situation" he has experienced in the last 23 years at the helm.
Get ready for it.....
>
>
>
It's coming......
>
>
>
>
Everyone together...>
>
>
>
NO SHIT !
Can it get worse? YUP! here's how.
If Timmy D. Is the only ref involved they the next statement will be mute.
>>>>>>What if there's more of them?
Concerned now? Let's say Tim talks to the feds, gives up his partners, and takes a plea. How many flee the country with a suitcase with a sock hanging from one side. As i have said before i am no fan (anymore) of the NBA but i am tracking this story closely.
Tracking...........................................

Goodell tells Vick to skip camp.
Yup, exactly what i would have done, and exactly what every single sports write in america is calling for. And all of this because Vick wanted to do what> Fight dogs, probley alittle, but he wanted to gamble on the fights. (Where's Timmy D when you need him!). Roger made a statement that was all nice and good but if you read between the lines it said this.
"Everyone thinks you are guilty. I think you did it, the public thinks you did it, so until it think or someone else (the legal system) tells me otherwise forget about playing football again, EVER!"
If i was Mr Blank (owner of the Falcons) I would donate his salery to PETA. Vick is going to get paid until he is convicted (for now).

Vinokourov / Tour de Steroids
Alexandre tested (suprise) positive for a banned blood transfusion. (you thought i was going to say steriods, didn't you!)

What do the last 4 days prove?
#1 - You do not have to be on steriods to be a moron.
#2 - The best planning will still get you cought.
#3 - Athletic ability and brains are not in the same equasion.
#4 - Sports needs more good hero's like

Jon Lester.
His line for the evening.
6IP, 6K, 5H, 3BB, 1 standing ovation, 11 months cancer free. 2 parents watching there son pitch in the major league again.
Thank god for Baseball.

I feel good now. I'm gonna quite while i'm ahead.

More tomorrow.

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.

What a weekend

Where to start............

I saw the ESPY'S last night
Kinda boring. The only thing i still have burning in my brain is LeBron dunking the baby and then doing a skit of Bobby Browns "My Perogitive". He was funny. I did not catch the while thing as i keep flipping the channel over to Spike TV and watching reruns of C.S.I. Vegas.

Phillies 1st to 10,000 losses.
Not sure is that is actually something to be proud of. YES? NO?
Philly fans are known for being the toughest around. By toughest i mean for actual fighting. Need examples? (thought you would never ask.)
#1 - The "battery game". Throwing D batteries at Giants players. (that's class)
#2 - A.I willing and carrying the team on hos shoulders to the playoffs. Then after they were sweepted running Iverson out of town. (Iverson was such a bad ass he played for a half a season with a F-U attutude twards the croud.)
#3 - The late 80's for the Phillies. Just a horrible time in baseball for philly fans. (Missed drafting Griffey, Missed A-Rod, And missed Paul O'Neil, Greg Maddox, Norm Charlton, ect, ect. I dare you to name one of there draft choices from the late 80's and earlie 90's that is still in the game?. Just a shame.).
#4 - Donovan McNabb carried them to the superbowl. They loose and all the in-fighting and fan fighting starts.I remember going down to Simkar after that and listening to the sports radio, off the charts on the comedy scale. Drunken philly fans (at 10am) just killing Donovan and the rest of the Eagles.
For as long as i can remember i have always heard people say that philly was the toughest city to play in, beacuse of the fans. There attutudes change faster than a brides after she says "I do". (I'm twice divorsed. I earned the right to say that.)

Ichiro gets nailed
By a 96mph Verlander fastball. It was unintensional (I think). He has a contusion (bruise) right on his calf. Might slow him down a half a step.

Beckham get introduced to USA
The US. must hate soccer. Every story i read about David Beckham said he was 38. No i just read a story in the english paper(online) that says he 32. How old is this kid?

Pujols
Nails 4 homers in the last 12 at bats. Now all the sluggers next year will be dying to get in the derby if there slumping. OR MAYBE This is Alberts way of telling LaRussa to go F himself? Tony did not put him in at the end of the all star game. Maybe (as stated in a pervious post) this is Pujols way of screaming "Hey LaRussa, Should have put me in the game!" A pissed of, something to prove Pujols is almost as dangerious as Gary Sheffield on a new cycle.

Speaking of Cycles...
My dealer hooked up with a hot woman on paris. He never coming back (so he tells her.) Does anyone but me know who winning at the Tour-de-Steroids?

Mourning to play "one more year"
"And this is my last year" Alonzo Mourning is going to play one more year. Espn will be calling you for a job in one year and one day from now.
This makes me think, Is it a good idea to announce your retirement a year in advance? We do it in the real world. I remember when Riggie did it. (Reggie Miller for those of you asking.) (He played for the Pacers). To his credit even Madision Squre Garden gave him a standing ovation. (which totally cought him off guard as Knicks fans HATED him.) But New York reconginizes that Reggie played hard every day. Same can be said about Mourning. Zo had this "chip" about him when he first came up. There were a few bigger guys but no one, I mean NO ONE was faster for a big man. Malone (Carl, UTAH JAZZ) could give him a run for a quarter or two but not the whole game. I think Zo will draw a good croud for his fairwell tour. I know i'll try and see him in Jersey when i go this year.
(o.k. I still hate watching basketball, ON T.V. Going live and having 4th row courtside is another thing. The guys are bigger, the woman are sluttier, and i also want to see a game sober. See if it is actually interesting. I wanna see one Vince Carter old fashion Tommahawk dunk. Then It may have a chance to come crawling back into my sports life.)

More tomorrow.

All stars / ESPY's / Vermont

Good all star game
(here are my notes from watching the game.)
PRE-GAME HIGHLITES
Can not beleive they have Eric Byrnes in a kayak, with his dog! There was no way Bynnes last the whole game in the water. I do not care if he is a bay area kid.
Angles and LA players getting booed at the all star game. (Now i know why most people of SF like Barry Bonds.) Peavey and Lackey seame to be enjoying getting booded by SF fans. (I see the humor in it).
Willie getting a ride around the field. (should have been on a Lexus though)
(Joe Buck and Timmy are destroying this pre-game.)
I can not beleive the dog is still on the kayak.
1st inning.
Is Bynre's dog still in the kayak? I'm worried about him.
Dan Harren looks like a deer in the headlights. I think he just realized his wife is super hot.
Does FLOWMAX really have all thiose side effects? I think i would rather pee my pants.

2nd inning.
We lead the Prince like Tatoo's (no shit - seen his neck?)
I think Tim McCarver just turned into rainman. I have no idea what the hell he's saying.
When did Dan Cook start doing MLB commercials?

3rd inning
Ichiro is on a roll. I smell MVP......
WOW, A-rod really look disinterested on that last pitch.
Bonds warning tracks a ball. He made it look like he got a hold of one but you know it was not gone. He did the "Sammy Hop for steriods!"

4th inning
Was it Griffey or A-rod? Was it a great throw by Griffey? or a bad hammy from A-rod that made that play at home?
Joe and Tim in the booth make comments about Bonds and Steroids. (SUPRISE!) Ken chimes in with the "we'll never know" and "smoke and mirrors lines". In other words Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.....

5th inning.
ICHIRO goes yard! With out leaving the yard. That boy can fly. The M;s should renew his contract and give him 100 million dollars. (wait, they already have.)
Someone catch the dog! Holy crap he's swimming away? How come Byrnes didn't jump in after him? Where's PETA when you need them. ( Note: I love Eric Byrnes and a broadcaster. If you ever watch him in the booth he does it the same way he plays baseball, out-of-controll. Last year durring the World series i thought his head was going to explode at one point. Either that or he was going to pull a Lindo Blair spin around.)

6th inning
The park has WI-FI. Anyone know someone blogging right from the ball park? No? Me either.
D-Rays go yard. Good for Carl Crawford. Hay, at least he'll affect the world series somehow.
Exactly how many bats have shattered tonight? I know VLAD did on at least two of them.
FOX pulled out the whole Russell Martin / Turtle / Entourage thing. (saw that one coming a mile away)

7th inning
Saw my 1st underdog commercial (was flipping channels). I'm pissed it's not a cartoon. (on that note i am really pissed The Transformers was not released in a cartoon form. Going to see it this weekend. I'll let you know if i change my mind.)
(waiting for "God bless America" to begin.
Still waiting.
Still waiting.
Paula Cole? Who? She's famous? If she is she should raise a big stink about the who keyboard thing.
Johan Santana is NASTY!

8th inning
I think McCarver and Buck have been drinking in the booth. Neither are making any sense.
Martines goes deep for the AL. (Which Martines you ask? Not telling.)

9th inning.
I know Hoffman is the saves king but how many has be blown?
SORI goes yard - one run game.
Larussa is a moron, No he a MORON. WHY would you let Arron Rowand hit when you have Albert and Chris Young on the bench? WHY? For the love of GOD why? Holy Crap, Pujols is gonna be pissed. I cna not see Albert for the rest of the year breaking Tony's chops. If i was Al everytime i walk by Larussa i'm screaming something like "I coulda hit that" or "Where your boy Rowand NOW!"

AL wins 5-4. Ichiro is MVP (although i really do not think he want's the Tahoe, he keeps looking at it like he expects to see a Toyota.)
Jeanie Zelasko looks HOT tonight.

ESPY's
I'm not going to go over all of them (today) but here are a few of my favorites. MP si for My pick. WW is for who i think will win.

Best male athlete
mp - Tomlinson
ww - Tomlinson

Best Female Athlete
