I’m a dime. I’m fine and I shine. I’m freshly minted. I’m silver-plated. I’m underrated. -Cake
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! How ’bout them Celtics? How ’bout that Rajon Rondo? First the Boston Celtics were the Big Three. Then after a stellar post season performance in 2009, Rajon Rondo forced himself into the mix to make it the Big Four. This year, with Shaq Daddy on board, ESPN the Magazine dubbed the Celtics the Fantastic Five. I’m not buying it. Not any more. Like my main man JFK always says, “Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Celtics.” The torch has been passed to Rajon Rondo.

Pencil neck geek. Grit eatin’ freak. Scum suckin’, pea head with a lousy physique. He’s a one man, no gut, loosing streak. Nothin’ but a pencil neck geek. -Classy Freddie Blassie
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Yesterday I wrote some things about Derrick Favors. Nice things. Complimentary things. Flattering things. Things like, “Mark my words, from what I saw last night, Derrick Favors has what it takes to be a legend.” Well sports fans, there’s somebody out there who’s not quite so laudatory. Not quite so applaudatory. No quite so hurrahdatory. That said somebody is DeMarcus Cousins. Read More »

She had dumps like a truck truck truck. Thighs like what what what. All night long. Let me see that thong. -Sisqo
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Last night, the San Francisco Giants took game one of the World Series. Took it by scoring five runs with two outs in the fifth inning. Hooray Giants! Know this seamheads: Only two other teams have scored five or more runs with two outs in an inning in Game 1 of a World Series. The Red Sox did it against the Rockies in 2007 and somehow the Reds managed it against the “Black Sox” in 1919. So how did the Giants do it? If you ask Aubrey Huff, he’ll tell you skimpy thong underpants did the trick. Huff has credited the thong with lifting his nuts while lifting his team to a playoff berth and ultimately to the World Series. Read More »

Johnny come lately, the new kid in town. Everybody loves you, so don’t let them down. -Eagles
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Rookie rookie, who gets the cookie? Who’s the big winner here tonight at the casino? Huh? Derrick, that’s who. Derrick’s the big winner. Derrick wins. Everybody’s yipping about Blake Griffin. Everbody’s yapping about John Wall. Yipping and yapping. Flipping and flapping. But folks are forgetting about somebody. Folks are forgetting about Derrick Favors. Read More »

Sacked like a sacker. Call Mr. Brady. Tell him to leave his hair to that guy who sings ‘Baby’ . -Justin Bieber
Public Service Announcement: Fresh off of dissing my boy, Tom Brady, Justin Bieber tried to chat up a couple of LA Lakers cheerleaders. Sadly for him, they seemed more interested in the game than the pint-sized pop sensation.

Yes, I’m a lover not a fighter. Yes, I’m a lover not a fighter. And I’m really built for speed. I’m really built for speed. -The Kinks
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Colton Orr is better known for his fighting than his shooting. That may be so, but last night, he scored the winner winner chicken dinner for the Maple Leafs in their 3-1 victory over the Panthers. Hooray Colton Orr! Sure it was ugly. Sure, he plowed over Panthers goaltender Scott Clemmensen. But know this Hockey Krishnas: It was Orr’s second goal in eight games this season; he also scored at Pittsburgh on October 13. Though no one will ever confuse him with his namesake, Bobby Orr, it’s worth noting that October 2010 is the first calendar month in which Colton has scored more than one goal in his 335-game NHL career. That’s something, ain’t it? Sure it is.

Oh the grass is green ad the bases white and the players pitch and hit. But more than that, alas, alack, they only prefer to spit, to spit. They only prefer to spit. -Gilbert & Sullivan
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! This story has taken off. By now, you’ve all heard it. You’ve all heard during the American League Championship Series, Yankees fans spit on the families of the Texas players incuding Cliff Lee’s wife. But like any red blooded mercenary, Cliff Lee said, a guy spitting on his family would not deter him from signing with the Yankees.That’s the spirit! And in that spirit, let’s have a look-see at other incidents in sports spitting, shall we? Sure we shall. Read More »
