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.....

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

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.

Homers, Homer, and Non sports issues
Where to start?
I'm at lunch so i only have an hour.
HR derby. Was soooo boring. I am glad Vlad won thought. He was the only one i watched who seemed to put everything into each swing. (Fielder was pathetic for a big man.) The suprise was Rois and Holliday. Really wanted to see Matt win though but pretty sure he toasted himself in the 2nd round. Can you immagine the ribbing he would give the league until next year? He was picked at 8am that morning ,had his brother pitch to him on national t.v., and hit like 8 streight in the 2nd round. If i had done that i would have walked out of the batting area holding my crotch yelling "Hey Ryan Howard and Prince Fielder! I got your home run freindly park right here !!!!". (Matt is listed at 6ft 3" 220lb / Fielder 6ft 0 and 295, Howard 6ft 4" 271). The worst part was having to listen to Joe Morgan and Dusty Baker call the derby. Here how the dialog went for those of you who mossed it. (jm = Joe Morgan. db = Dusty Baker)
Pick any of the players who were in the home run derby and you can fill in there name. I'm using Alex Rios' name because it's short and i hate long names.
jm - Alex has a sweet swing.
db - Sure does. You did too Joe.
jm - Thanks Dusty. I liked yours too.
db - Just wish mine was as big as yours.
jm - I think your was bigger in your hay day.
db - Alex needs one more home run to get to the next level of the compitition.
jm - You know baseball players thrive on compitition.
db - Compitition is was make them get out of bed in the morning and play agent the other team.
Chris Berman Chimes in "THAT'S BACK, BACK, BACK, WAY BACK!!!!
What a crock of shit. I left the TV on and turned down the sound. The should get someone like Dennis Leary and Chris Rock to announce the home run derby. I'd tune in for that.
DL - Here's Howard at the plate trying to hit a homer with his gut. OH - HE GET A HOLD OF THAT ONE! He almost took off a blond chicks bra when that ball scorched by her in the stands.
CR - He knock the shit out of that one like my mama yous to know the shit out of me. The was a back hand to the forehead if i ever seen one. HE KNOCKED THE CRAP OUT OF THAT! KNOCKED THE CRAP OUT OF IT I TELL YA!
Good times would be had by all.
NBA -
I have to, there's news.
Ron Artest wants to remain and retire a King. (Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)
Tony Parker and Eva are on there honeymoon. (Which reminds me. Tony is French. We hate the french. Does that make Eva a traitor?)
Antoine Walker (miami heat) was robber at gun point in his Chicago home. (that's a switch)
A.I. order to pay $260,000.00 in damages to a man his "friends" beat the crap out of.
Oden is done for the summer season after a tonsilloctimay (he got his tonsils removed).
NFL -
Drunk driving charges dropped agenst Steve McNair (ravens). After all he was the passenger. (It's illegal in 30 states for both the driver and the passenger to be legally drunk in a car. Little known fact. CT is not one of the states.)
TDS (tour de steroids)
My dealer called. He making BOO COO cash!
Fabian Cancellara (team CSC) won the 3rd stage and is now 33 seconds ahead of Erik Zabel of Germany. America's only team has dropped out of the top 10 after pulling over on the 3rd turn to shoot up.
ALL STAR GAME
Tonight 8pm on fox. I'm tuning in for the commercials. (almost like the superbowl). I break the game down tomorrow after it over.
Prediction. AL over the NL by 3
Misc. Notes from around the world.
The simpsons movie opens up 07-27-07 i can not wait. I highly reccomend visiting www.simpsonsmovie.com and playing the games.
My condolences to the Kennedy family for there loos. (Lesa france Kennedy is an offical for International sppedway corp and also a daugher of Bill France.)
Happy birthday to Pam Anderson (40) <- (and that's her age, not breast size).
Tomorrow is the slowest sports day of the year soo, I will be breaking down the all star game and the ESPY's.

Monday Wrap
Alot to go over in the racing world so lets get everything else out of the way 1st.
GOLF (yes Golf.)
KJ Choi wins Tigers tournment. (does anyone realize it was actually the AT&T tourney?) Solid putting and good greens play helped him win after Stuart Appleby played the last round like a soldier. (left, right, left, right) This is Choi's 2nd win in 6 weeks. (5 weeks ago he won the Arnold Palmer classic.) Woods finished a respectiable T6 after earlie troubles with the putter put him in a huge hole.
Tour De Steroids
My dealers not back yet, i'm going threw withdrawl. (I could snap any minute.) Robbie McEwen, who was Lances running mate for years, not breaks out on him own and wins the 1st stage. I'm assuning the frence immediatially sent his blood to the nearest lab for testing. Do we hate the french again? Or did we always hate them, then tollerated them for awhile, and now hate them again?
Weird sports of the weekend
#1 - Running of the wives (Finland) Who but the Fins could come up with this? Strap your wife on your shoulders and run her threw and obstical cource. (I watched some highlite on youtube and this is off-the-wall funny)
#2 - Running of the bulls (spain) Score is now Bulls 9 - people 0. 9 people wre injured during yesterdays run. Only 9? The Bulls need to pick-up the pace a little.
NBA -
Summer league is in full swing (althought i do not give a crap) Durant and Oden are throwing up donuts.
MLB -
1st yalf is over. Ended on a great not with Curtis Grandersons fantastic spiderman-scale-the-wall-take-away-a-homer catch yesterday.
A-rob hit his 30th of the season and 494th of carear yesterday. (He passed Lou Gherig and Fred-"the crime dog"- Mcgriff also).
Here are my 1st half awards.
MVP - (this kills me) A-Rod.
Cy Young - Chris Young (padre's) He'd be 12 and 1 if he had gotten a little more offence.
Biggest suprise (everyone saw coming) Prince Fielder.
Biggest suprise (no-one saw coming) Magglio Ordonez
Suprise team (MY) Marniers. (Only 1 game back of the Angles now.)
Biggest DUD - The White Sox.
MOTOR SPORTS
Watkins Glenn. Scott Dixon may have won but all the talk was Kanaan and Hornish jr. after the race. Ya, they got into it a little but yah, rubbins racing! I love it when they finish the race and get out of the car and want ot fight someone, WITH THERE HELMET ON! That's like two goalie's fighting in hockey. Sure, there could be pleanty of action, but no blood, nothing gets broken. (except a fist if someone actually throw a punch.)
almost finally -
Daytona.
#1 - Congrats to Jamie McMurray. This should solidify his comeback driver of the year award (i do not care what happens in the 2nd half.) #2 - Congrats to Jeff Gordon. (Why? Though you would never ask...) A) for helping Jamie win. He did not have to push him past Kyle(his teammate) but he stayed in line and did what he was supposto to do. B) Telling the world (or at least everyone watching on tv) he was happy Jamie won. I have not read one word where JG said one thing positive or negitive about Kyle which means he C) kept his mouth shut like he was suppose to. (more on this below.)
#2 - Congrats to Carl Edwards. His push was the one who let Jamie win. He may still look like a dork, but i kinda like Carl now.
And finally,
I could not wait to go off on Kyle Busch.
O.k. I HATE KYLE BUSCH. I hate him in the same way some people hate Tony Stewart or Jeff Gordon. If he was lying on the side of the road and bleeding from his eyes and all i had to do is say "hi" to him to save his life, I would cut out my tounge 1st, HATE HIM. I hate watching his interviews, get mad at the tv when i see him in a commercial, refuse to eat frosted flakes anymore, and NEVER, EVER, go to CarQuest, PERIOD.
NOW, that being said, one of the reason i despise/hate/loath him so much is he always comes off like the youngest child who did not get his way.
Jeff gordon didn't push me, wahhhhh!!!!
I lost my ride to Junior, wahhhh!!!
Tony hit me , Wahhh!!!
Look, Kyle asked out of his contract about 4 weeks ago before the hired JR. He's probley going to Penske Racing with his brother and Ryan (Newman). What did he expect. To get treated like gold and handles with kid gloves until he's out? F-that. This is racing. Teams race as individuals. I'm sure there is a limit as to how much Roush and Hendrick want there drivers to push this, but face the fact, Do what you have to do to win the race, period. Now he's pissed Jeff did not help him. Look i saw parts of the race and Jamie was clearly the supperior car. What was Jeff to do? Get behind the slower car? My judgement may be a little clouded because of the fact i do not like (hate) him, but he's wrong. If he was smart (and he's not. He's a moron who can not even get a HOT looking girlfriend) he would shut his trap and just get into the car and race with what he's given. Next year when he's racing for Penske or Ginn he can bitch all he wants. But for now, SHUT - THE - F&@$- UP. No one (especially me) wants to hear your winny little ass talking about, well, anything.
Almost forgot.
HR Derby tonight at 9pm on ESPN. Line up is.
Ryan Howard (phillies)
Prince Fielder (brewers)
Albert Pujols (cardnials)
Alex Rois (blue jays)
Justin Morneau (twins)
Maggloi Ordonez (Tigers)
favorite - Ryan Howard
My pick - The Prince
Sleeper pick - Magg's
See ya tomorrow.

T.G.I.F.
Warning: NASCAR POST
I know i have not posted about NASCAR in a while but here the thing. I still love watching and i love the sport. But ever since i was thrown from contension in the pool i am in i have been angry watching it on T.V. I have an outside chance at some money if at the start of the race Gordon takes out smoke, JJ, Budwiser and the Robot in the 1st lap, Mark Martin forgets he was supposto race this week and Reed Sorensen misses the race because State farm canceled his insurance. Basically i have not a chance in hell, but doesn't mean i can not root for "the big one" to happen in the 1st lap?
Besides after the big announcement that Jr. was going to Hendrick nothing exciting has happened. The only driver worth watching is Montoya to see who he will take out next. How boring has it gotten?
JJ and Jeff Gordon are still winning (yawn)
Delana Harvick has not once been mentioned in the power ranking for not taking off her hat.
Matt Kenseth robot is still finishing in the top 10.
The gatorade commercial still make me cringe.....
Clint Boyer still looks like he's pissed of at everyone.
Jr is still the most popular driver. (and had a hell of a run the last 6 races)
I have not broken one t.v. this year watching the races.
Smoke and Kyle have not had words with each other in over a month.
The most i can hope for this week is that Fed-X capolitized on Denny's win last week with a new commercial. We need a center of the track beef. Tony's gotta be angry at someone right? Someone tell him that Kyle Busch peed on him lunch or something. Can we get Casey Mears and Juam Pablo to duke it out in the octigon with Joe Rogan announcing? Right off turn #2 would be good.
Michael Vick's house raided, again.
Question, what are they hoping to find this time they did not the 1st? They should up this morning with 20 cars, 2 u-haul trucks. I'm suprised the did not call in the dogs. (Bad Joke. Bad, Bad Joke). Now, if i'm Vick, and if there was anything (I mean ANYTHING) left in that house that would incriminate me i would have had it out of there by now. I would have hired one of those mission impossible guys to go threw the house and get ride of all my stuff. Tracking.......
In other "dumb ass football players police blotter news"
Tank Johnson will not be charged with DUI in Arizona. (suprise! His BAC was only .071) But it is know that the bears will release him as soon as his suspension is done.
RIP to Avery Atkins.
Another tragic waste to a teriffic collage player. A projected starting cornerback for the gators in 2007 until domestic voilence charges were filed agenst him in last 2006. He was again arrested on monday for posession of crack cocaine, drug paraphernalia, and a conceled weapon.
NHL
Jeremy Roenick retires from Arizona. He remonds me of hockeys version of Curt Schilling. Good player, big mouth and will probley wind up in a broadcast booth when his playing days are done.
We'll see...........
Hasek resignes with the Wings. Good move he's a solid goalie when he is propetly motivated. (thanslation he's gonna suck this year because he got a 2 year contract.)
Cycling....
Does anyone know the Tour de Steroids is starting? I only do because my dealer told me he's gonna be out of town for a week or so.
NBA
Kobe apoligizes to Kupchak. This is why he will never, EVER, win another championship unless someone else carries his ass to one. The next time you see Kupchak and Kobe's wife they will each be carring one of his balls each. Kupchap beacuse of the amount of money he's paying him there was no way he could ever let Kobe get away with what he did and not apologize. He wife because no way in HELL she's leaving LA. She can put up with him cheating, but NO WAY she's moving.
And my favorite subject MLB
Last night CC Sabathis vs. Verlander was supposto be a pitchers dual. Verlander was dealing, CC was ducking. CC would have been better off pitching underhand the was Detroit was teeing of last night. And to watch Verlander throw his breaking ball was out of this world. I think he broke about 4 batters knee;s yesterday from buckeling so hard. By the way how big is CC? 280? 300? but he's still the best hitting pitcher in baseball next to Bronson Arroyo who....
helped himself to a win by out homering Barry Bonds. I now truley beleive that last vs last place are the best games in baseball. The Giants Reds game last night was trutl entertaining.
Okajima (red sox) and Young (padres) round out the all stars. I thing both deserve it, although you could aslo say that about a ton of other players (sheffield, Roland, Renteria, Chipper, Andrew, Milkie, Caberia, ect, ect). If they want ot get everyone in the game who deserves it set up a 75 man roster for each team. You play till you hit, then your done. Pitchers get one inning, PERIOD. And you have 20 players from each league who "almost made it" sitting in the stands right behind the dougout in case the game goes to extra innings. You start you at bat 2 and 1. If you walk, your our of the game. After all this is still a game, right?
It happens to be my favorite game but there are soo many imperfections (like my spelling) that sometimes it ruins the game. Remember last year when Kenny Rogers was mowing down the yankees? That was a perfect game (if you were a Tigers fan). Why do we ruin the game with things like "pitch counts". In Kenny's game i do not care if he was 90 years old and had thrown 400 pitches. If he still had gas and control of his pitches i would have left him in there till his arm fell off. (Leland did). That's how the game should be managed and played. But in todays game it seams the highest player get the most face time instead of the hottest hand getting the call. (ask ther Yankee's minor league pitching staff).
That concludes today rant.
I know i have not posted about NASCAR in a while but here the thing. I still love watching and i love the sport. But ever since i was thrown from contension in the pool i am in i have been angry watching it on T.V.

Hasek resignes with the Wings. Good move he's a solid goalie when he is propetly motivated. (thanslation he's gonna suck this year because he got a 2 year contract.)
Cycling....
Does anyone know the Tour de Steroids is starting? I only do because my dealer told me he's gonna be out of town for a week or so.
NBA
Kobe apoligizes to Kupchak. This is why he will never, EVER, win another championship unless someone else carries his ass to one. The next time you see Kupchak and Kobe's wife they will each be carring one of his balls each. Kupchap beacuse of the amount of money he's paying him there was no way he could ever let Kobe get away with what he did and not apologize. He wife because no way in HELL she's leaving LA. She can put up with him cheating, but NO WAY she's moving.
And my favorite subject MLB
Last night CC Sabathis vs. Verlander was supposto be a pitchers dual. Verlander was dealing, CC was ducking. CC would have been better off pitching underhand the was Detroit was teeing of last night. And to watch Verlander throw his breaking ball was out of this world. I think he broke about 4 batters knee;s yesterday from buckeling so hard. By the way how big is CC? 280? 300? but he's still the best hitting pitcher in baseball next to Bronson Arroyo who....
helped himself to a win by out homering Barry Bonds. I now truley beleive that last vs last place are the best games in baseball. The Giants Reds game last night was trutl entertaining.
Okajima (red sox) and Young (padres) round out the all stars. I thing both deserve it, although you could aslo say that about a ton of other players (sheffield, Roland, Renteria, Chipper, Andrew, Milkie, Caberia, ect, ect). If they want ot get everyone in the game who deserves it set up a 75 man roster for each team. You play till you hit, then your done. Pitchers get one inning, PERIOD. And you have 20 players from each league who "almost made it" sitting in the stands right behind the dougout in case the game goes to extra innings. You start you at bat 2 and 1. If you walk, your our of the game. After all this is still a game, right?
It happens to be my favorite game but there are soo many imperfections (like my spelling) that sometimes it ruins the game. Remember last year when Kenny Rogers was mowing down the yankees? That was a perfect game (if you were a Tigers fan). Why do we ruin the game with things like "pitch counts". In Kenny's game i do not care if he was 90 years old and had thrown 400 pitches. If he still had gas and control of his pitches i would have left him in there till his arm fell off. (Leland did). That's how the game should be managed and played. But in todays game it seams the highest player get the most face time instead of the hottest hand getting the call. (ask ther Yankee's minor league pitching staff).
That concludes today rant.
