Too bad Cal lost to UCLA...

baron davis barks back

- Original post from TPIC -

The Los Angeles Clippers suck. Their constant sucking is so bad it's become tautologous. It is just despicable. After being called a dog by T.J. Simers of the Los Angeles Times, Baron Davis is barking back.

"Are you seriously blaming me for how bad the Clips are doing? Just look at the team. I am not dogging anything. My heart and soul is with this team. I'm making $65 million in the next 5 years because I believe in this team. I believed in Golden State. Now I believe in Los Angeles. Excuse me for a moment while I represent LA..."

(Baron Davis turns around to throw the first pitch for the Los Angeles Dodgers.)

"Boom Dizzle can not win a championship on his own. It's not my fault Elton Brand, my former friend, ditched LA. It's not my fault Marcus Camby's a tree stump. It's not my fault Al Thornton plays like shit. It's not my fault Chris Kaman looks like the Geico caveman. It's not my fault the Clippers suck. I'll only take the blame if you believe that I'm worse than the Sam Cassell/Shaun Livingston days. Dahhh, I need a potty break!"

(B-Diddy takes a break from his potty break to enjoy a Lakers game with Adam Sandler to go over a new movie script.)

"I came back home to South Central to lead the Clips to an NBA championship, man. I'm here to show the kids we can dream big. Hollywood's great and all, but it's all about the game of basketball for me. Nothing else. Those Lakers nachos are killing me, potty break #2?"

(Baron calls up old high school buddy Kate Hudson to grab another quick bite.)

"Everyone keeps talking about Baron this, Baron that. Get off my balls! Everyone hangs out with their friends. Don't blame me for hanging out with my friends. Don't blame me if they're celebrities. Don't blame me if they got connections to the film industry. Why am I the bad guy here? Jesus Christ, I need to vent. I'll be right back."

(Baron does a quick interview alongside Jessica Alba and Cash Warren for his new documentary, Crips and Bloods: Made in America.)

"I wasn't traded at the deadline, thank God, but if I was, I would've appreciated any other team out there. Houston, Dallas, Golden State, Los Angeles, it's all the same. Any day, any night, if I'm not bothered by this injury or that injury, I go out there on the court and give my full half focus for the whole half of the game. Now if you would wait a couple hours, Steve Nash is coming in town so I have to show him around, since you know, he's Canadian, and we're in California."

(B-Diddy and Stevie Nash takes a long bike ride from the Santa Monica pier down past Newport Beach to hang out at Kobe's place.)

"Like I said before, the Clippers need a team effort, I can't do everything alone. I feel like I'm contributing my $65 million every night. Others, I can not say, but I definitely don't tolerate a bunch of big name, big contract players who's out wandering the wonderful streets of Hollywood investing their time and money on their movie producing career. When I'm not dishing assists on the court, I'm out helping the community. Look, I even took a part-time gig at the local McDonald's."

At that point, Mr. Baron Davis was exhausted from the interview and the mini errands he had to run in between, so he called it quits. He ended the night at the local five star hotel to "relax" a bit, where he showed his true self, as described by what is left of the Delinda Lombardo story.

No wonder this is how Los Angeles fans think of Baron Davis:

Don't you wish you were still a Golden State Warrior, Boom Dizzle?

nostalgia friday: ken griffey jr. seattle mariner

- Original post from TPIC -

Welcome back to 1989!

Box office hits are Lethal Weapon 2, Back to the Future Part II, Ghostbusters II, The Little Mermaid, License to Kill, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, and When Harry Met Sally.

Prince, Madonna, Duran Duran, New Kids On The Block, Erasure, R.E.M, Paula Abdul, The Bangles, Cher, Elvis Costello, and Depeche Mode are topping the music charts.

George H.W. Bush is the US president, gas is under $1.00, stamps are only $0.25, Nintendo just introduced Gameboy, The Simpsons aired its first episode, the Berlin Wall came down, student protests occurred in Tiananmen Square, and Ken Griffey Jr. made his major league debut, hitting a double in his first at-bat and hitting a homer in his first at-bat in the Kingdome.

Fast forward 20 years; Junior is back to where it all began. Carrying the prettiest swing in baseball, The Kid can still hit the long ball without the steroids, unlike a certain other someone. He's 38 and may not fly to chase down balls in the outfield like he's 18 again, but he's Ken Griffey Jr.

Seattle may have had the worst year in sports history, and that trend will most likely continue, but Junior will give the city something to cheer and reminisce about.

1995 was pretty much their best year when they made it to the ALCS, but that's about it. 2001 was a season to remember when Ichiro stole the show winning the Rookie of the Year and AL MVP awards, while the Mariners won 116 games, but they couldn't even get out of the first round of the playoffs.

The past nor the future doesn't look good for the M's, but we can all think back and enjoy the days when Junior was patrolling the outfield, Omar Vizquel dancing around the infield, Jamie Moyer looking much younger and Randy Johnson throwing 100 mph. Now add in Ichiro in right field, Edgar Martinez at DH, John Olerud, Raul Ibanez, Alex Rodriguez, Bret Boone, and Felix Hernandez. That's a true All-Star team. Don't you wish the M's and Safeco Field could turn back the clock and compete with all those players together?

Too bad dreams never come true, and the reality is that the Seattle Mariners are still with the bottom feeders of the American League. Don't get me wrong, Seattle's an awesome city and I love it, but if I could ask Ken Griffey Jr. to do one thing, please bring back your Nike Air Griffey Max and rock it when I see you this spring.

chopped and screwed by tracy mcgrady

- Original post from TPIC -

Don't chop me, shawty don't screw me. Shawty don't chop me, Shawty don't screw me...why you acting all like that, like that? Like all you ever really want to do is just doubt me?

The story of T-Mac's life. Once a premier NBA basketball player, now only a good role player...on a good day. His name carries more credibility than his game.

When he was traded from the Orlando Magic to the Houston Rockets, he was supposed to be that one guy, the guy Stevie Franchise used to be. Seeing him now, his Magic days was probably the peak of his career. The Houston Rockets is Yao Ming's team now. Using up $20 million a year, not worth it for this guy. You'd be lucky if you see him play even half a season. Vince Carter, welcome aboard.

Onto the real topic. How many of you out there have been chopped and screwed by Tracy McGrady in your fantasy basketball league? I'm not talking about just this year, but the past, maybe, 4 years. At least with Gilbert Arenas, you know he's going to be out the whole year before the draft, and he entertains you with his blog.

I drafted T-Mac in the 7th round this year thinking he would be a good sleeper pick for me. I guess I was the stupid one in my league, or had too high of a hope for the man. With Al Jefferson and Michael Redd both gone for the year, I needed T-Mac to step up. If you're thinking how stupid I was to draft the injury prone players like Michael Redd and Tracy McGrady, you're absolutely right. That's why I drafted Monta Ellis to have him on my bench for half a season.

Luckily, I slowly climbed my way up the league rankings, picking up good players and currently holding the #3 spot steadily, just a mere half a game behind #2, but a lengthy 15 games behind first place.

I dropped Tracy McGrady and picked up Ryan Gomes. Help me people! Who else is worthy of replacing him? Shane Battier? Hakim Warrick? Von Wafer? I guess I'm not in that bad a situation, but I'm sure there are many of you out there who are suffering more. Share the pain. We, like Tracy McGrady, have A LOT of time to sit and listen, since

we've officially been chopped and screwed, screwed-screwed chopped-chopped and screwed...

billy sadler, manny ramirez, best friends forever

- Original post from TPIC -

While we were all waiting for the Manny Ramirez sweepstakes, Manny and San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Billy Sadler became BFFs.

Not only did Manny paid for Billy's gym membership, because apparently making only $390,000 as a professional athlete means you're starving to death, Manny also teased Billy about playing for the San Francisco Giants together for years to come.

Even though Manny loves Hollywood, and the Dodgers did save a locker spot for Manny, wouldn't that be the cutest thing, seeing two BFFs frolick down the lovely streets of San Francisco holding hands and wearing friendship bracelets?

Think of all the great things they can do together in the city by the bay. If Brody Jenner can have a Bromance, so can Manny and Billy--Mannilly.

They can check out a cruise to Alcatraz on a sunny afternoon, or even ride a two-seater bike across the Golden Gate Bridge. Ghiradelli Square has awesome ice creams. Golden Gate Park is beautiful during the day, with multiple ponds and small lakes to feed the ducks and seagulls. There are TONS of restaurants and bars around the area for a nice, best friends dinner, like the Stinking Rose and the Fluid Bar.

Man, San Francisco is actually pretty awesome. I'm glad I'm in the city. What's the best part about Mannilly's San Francisco Giant experience?

It's all Manny's treat!! In fact, Manny can even pay for Billy's salary, turning that $390,000 sucker into a $1.39 million stud!! Oh, the fun times one could have with Manny Ramirez.

Now, jokes aside, where the heck is Manny Ramirez going to be this season?

I'm tired of the Giants saying they're interested with a mile-long shot at actually signing the man, and like Damon Bruce from KNBR said, all the players are trained to answer any Manny questions by saying something like: "he would be a great addition to our team, but we sincerely believe that we could win without him."

That is a bag full of crap and as a true San Francisco Giants fan, I demand a definite yes or no answer. Quit teasing us all until finally something doesn't happen. Manny Ramirez would be a great addition to the Giants organization, even better by stealing him from the Dodgers, but he's too expensive, and I want to believe that we don't need him.

What do you think?

shaq retires to dance

- Original post from TPIC -

It was a long boring weekend, take this dummy post and eat it.


Shaquille O'Neal is the bonafide mega superstar of basketball. Nobody is bigger or funnier than him. Shaq stole the entire weekend last night with his moves on the stage and on the court. Did you see how big is head was behind that tiny little JabbaWockeeZ mask?

While Kobe Bryant looked uncomfortable standing next to Shaq and fellow comedian Dwight Howard got owned by Shaq,


Shaq was contemplating his retirement from the NBA to pursue his career dream to dance. It seems like Dancing with the Stars only took football athletes, so he decided to start his own crew.


For the rest of the NBA season, since the Phoenix Suns are irrelevant now, Shaq is going to showcase his moves on the court and lobby for his dancing career in as many games as he can.

nba all stars go old (elementary) school

- Original post from TPIC -

NBA All-Star weekend is here. Phoenix, Arizona is popping with celebrities now. What's there to do in Phoenix anyways? It's nothing like Las Vegas, so at least we know nobody is getting arrested this year.

The actual game itself, like always, is going to end in the 120s and 130s. That's a given every year, but the other festivities are worth looking forward to. The Slam Dunk contest, the Three Point Shootout, the Skills Challenge, the Celebrity Game, and even the D-League All-Star Game.

This year, however, David Stern and the NBA is taking the All Stars back to grade school. Kevin Durant, O.J. Mayo, and Joe Johnson are going to compete in a game of H.O.R.S.E.

Look how pathetic ESPN sounds in their efforts to promote this. Tell us your favorite H.O.R.S.E. shot. Send in your best H.O.R.S.E. video. They go on to explain how you play H.O.R.S.E. in the article, with a referee standing by to make sure everything's done properly. Let me tell you something, ESPN. H.O.R.S.E. crap.

I can already see it coming. Kevin Durant calling O.J. Mayo a H.O., and Joe Johnson calling Kevin Durant a H.O.R.

You think that's it? Heeeeeecks no! We all better tune in to the NBA All Star games this year, because our favorite athletes are taking it old school.

Shaq, Kobe, Dwight Howard, and LeBron James are pitted against each other in a deadly match of Four Squares.

The speedy 5'9" Nate Robinson will go against the 7'6" Yao Ming in a history-to-be-made tetherball match after doing the improbable 900 to win the Slam Dunk contest.

Derrick Rose and Michael Beasley will once again settle their #1 and #2 draft picks in the intense game of wall ball, or suicide, however you used to call it.

The rookies and sophomores will cancel their Rookie Challenge and take it to the house in a game of kickball instead. MVP gets the red, bouncy, game ball.

And finally, the Eastern All Stars and the Western All Stars, coaches included, will go up against each other in a moment-of-truth game of dodgeball right before the actual game. First person to cream either Mike Brown or Phil Jackson in the face gets a $25,000 bonus.

Hurry up and make your bets, people! It's going to be a fun one. Enjoy your NBA Valentine All Star weekend!

alex rodriguez i am stupid monologue

- Original post from TPIC -

After his ESPN interview with Peter Gammons, Alex Rodriguez decided to stop by a local cafe in New York City to reflect upon his little, naive mistake. There was a poetry slam going on, so A-Roid decided to juice up his caffeine intake before showcasing his worth to the poetry world.

Stupid is as stupid does.

I am stupid.

I am stupid for taking steroids.

I am stupid for getting caught juicing up my manhood.

I am stupid for following the footsteps of Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Jason Giambi, Mark McGwire, and all those other juicers.

I am stupid for admitting my young, stupid, naive mistake.

I am stupid for letting Peter Gammons drill me, although the make-up artist did a fantastic job in portraying my red, tearish eyes and blushed, apologetic cheeks.

I am stupid for making up lame excuses during the interview.

I am stupid for taking steroids when I was a Texas Ranger. Steroids or no steroids, the Rangers were, and still are, going nowhere.

I am stupid for hooking up with a stripper in front of the New York media.

I am stupid for leaving my hot wife for a one-night stand with the worn out Material Girl.

I am stupid for still believing in the New York Yankees. The Yankees are stupid for standing behind me.

Money doesn't win World Series championships. But steroids win MVP awards.

I am stupid. I make $28 million a year. Sue me.

even lebron can't stop the lakers

- Original post from TPIC -

The Lakers are for real. They are truly unstoppable. Not even LeBron James and his undefeated Cavaliers at home can slow down the Lakers.

While major music superstars filled the Staples Center for the Grammys last night, Kobe Bryant and Co. flashed their super stardom all over the NBA. The results of their past road trip? Perfect 6-0. Boston Celtics and a 12-game winning streak? Like snatching candy from a baby for the Lakers.

Is this the sign of another one of those dominating Laker dynasties? Kobe and Shaq had their three-peat, but is this the new Kobe and Gasol plus Bynum or no Bynum show? From what I've seen in the past two weeks, the Big Three of the Celtics apparently are not possible anymore, and the King of Akron is dethroned.

Part of the Lakers' success? Replacing sore losers like Vladimir Radmanovic with moustache-proven players like Adam Morrison.

I'm sorry but role players do have a role. Derek Fisher, Lamar Odom, and Luke Walton know their roles; they don't need to score every game. They do what they can to help the team. That's why bench points is a statistic. That's why Jordan Farmar, Sasha Vujacic, and Trevor Ariza play well and you don't Vladimir. You're the odd man out; don't hate.

I wouldn't be surprised now to see Adam Morrison come in for a few minutes a game, hit some open threes because Kobe will create the open shot for him, and eventually win a NBA championship, and hopefully make Michael Jordan look less like a basketball operations idiot, a la Kwame Brown.

The season's two-thirds over, and the Lakers have the best record in the league. Enjoy this upcoming NBA All Star weekend, and wait for the Lakers to dominate in the playoffs. I'm sure many people will jump on the Laker bandwagon sooner or later.

best golden state warrior team that could never be

- Original post from TPIC -

Heard this interesting broadcast on KNBR from Tom Tolbert and Ralph Barbieri, wanted to share it with everyone else...

It's safe to say that the Warriors' 2009 season is over. Any hopes of the miracle playoff run from two years ago were down the drain after Monta Ellis broke his ankle. Sorry Stephen Jackson, your first career triple double doesn't magically change the Warriors' record from 16-34 to 34-16. And thanking God for that feat won't bring a NBA championship to Oakland.

Time to look down the current lineup and make some necessary trades. Big names are leaving, but big men are coming back. Without further adieu, here's the new starting five for the Golden State Warriors:

C - 6'11" - Andris Biedrins PF - 6'10" - Chris Bosh SF - 6'9" - Brandan Wright SG - 6'9" - Tayshaun Prince PG - 6'10" - Anthony Randolph

I present to you an entire team of left-handed, tall and lanky players who are at least 6 feet 9 inches tall.

That's my dream team right there. Randolph can handle the ball; Prince can shoot and drive; Wright can drive and defend; Biedrins can rebound and run the pick-and-roll; Chris Bosh does just about everything, including PR for the team.


Like I said, we say goodbye to current stars like Monta "I fell off a moped" Ellis, Corey "I get injured every other week" Maggette, and Stephen "I'm the scariest looking mofo in the NBA" Jackson, but we've gained a definite playoff team every single year. We will set records for rebounds and blocks day in and day out. This team is like the Berlin Wall, unbreakable.

What about the bench? Who needs a bench when you got 5 palm trees standing in front of the little twig pole of a basketball hoop. But if you must, we will add a couple more 6'9" and over lefties to our squad, although they're a little overweight in accordance with our team standards.

Oh, what the heck! Josh Smith (6'9"), Troy Murphy (6'11"), and Lamar Odom (6'10"), go sit on the bench!

kobe hates shaq, takes out anger on bynum

- Original post from TPIC -

Way to go, Kobe. Look what you've done. That is not the face of a Warrior, but the face of a seven-foot grown man withering in pain.

After hearing the news that Kazaam, better known as Shaq, made it to the 2009 Western Conference NBA All-Star team as a reserve, Kobe stomps on Andrew Bynum's right foot during a game to express his frustration towards Shaq. Kobe had planned to enjoy a fun, relaxing weekend in Phoenix, but will now have to live behind Shaq's shadow once again.

Before this incident, Kobe and the Lakers were looking to repeat last year's team efforts in making to the finals, with a much stronger bench this time around. However, they didn't need Bynum last year, so Kobe made an executive decision that they don't need the future All-Star in Andrew Bynum this year either.

Plus, this is Kobe's team. Pau "Crybaby" Gasol's whining ass knows his role on the team, as does Lamar "I'm 'better' coming off the bench" Odom. Andrew Bynum was coming together this year, averaging a double-double his past few games, so Kobe decided to tell the world that he IS the Los Angeles Lakers, nobody else.

"Shaq is long gone and I WILL NOT tolerate any new Shaqs on MY team," Kobe said during the timeout when trainers were attending to Andrew Bynum's foot.


When Shaq found out why Kobe took out Bynum, he requested an interview with ESPN's Stephen A. Smith to clear things up. Shaq confessed that everything was a hoax. Shaq is an entertainer, he does everything for the fans. This ongoing feud is a marketing scheme Kobe. He loves you and he loves Phil Jackson. You guys rocked his world. If you guys knew that like he did, there would've been 7000 more NBA Championship trophies in the Lakers locker room.

Too bad you numnuts couldn't figure that out. Shaq Diesel knew all along. Now he gets to play with Kobe again in front of his team's home crowd. Way to play the marketing game, Shaq. You are the smartest player in the world.

Another reason why Shaq is funny as hell.

David Beckham World Domination Tour

- Original post from TPIC -

David Robert Joseph Beckham, international sensation. One of the biggest soccer, or should I say football, stars in the world, along with Kaka, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and who have you not.

Now, I'm not a big soccer fan, but I was able to witness a match between arch rivals AS Roma and Lazio at Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Italy. I understand how big this sport is in Europe, and I definitely know that soccer fans are SERIOUS about their soccer territories. You talk about gangs here, they talk about soccer there.

Girls love him for his physique and good looks, and I guess some guys admire him for his way with the ladies. But soccer fans, what's wrong with this guy? He's practically trying to take over the world!

Domination Tour Stop #1: England

Born and raised in England, hometown hero playing for the powerhouse home team in Manchester United, someone who was actually good at the game, everyone loved him, yada yada yada...

Becoming the face of England, becoming bigger than the Queen herself, taking over England was like taking candy from a baby for David Beckham.

Domination Tour Stop #2: Spain

Traveled south to Madrid, Real Madrid. A few years later, the Spanish girls were drooling for him and the parties in Barcelona were dedicated to him. This man is unstoppable. Napoleon Bonaparte got nothing on him.

Domination Tour Stop #3: India

Bend It Like Beckham, enough said.

Domination Tour Stop #4: USA

Hollywood movie deals about him, and reality shows. David Beckham easily found the way to America's heart. Underwear model? Extra bonus for the valley girls.

Domination Tour Stop #5: Italy

Going to America was a vacation for him. Now he wants to actually play soccer again for the super competitive AC Milan, after dissing American soccer and calling it WEAK. Either way, a heavens load of money is going to be involved, enough for him to enjoy a delicious serving of panino con prosciutto e mozzarella every single day of his life.

Domination Tour Stop #6: China

With a gazillion people, you would think...but not this time, because truth will prevail. David Beckham is no match for Yao Ming and his brother/honorary Chinese ambassador Shaquille O'Neal, creator of the one and only SHAQ FU!

Jeff Kent is Sick of Baseball

- Original post from TPIC -

So he's announced his retirement in a very teary way after a 17-year major league career.

Career Stats: .290 batting average, 377 homers, 1518 RBIs, .500 slugging percentage. Career homerun leader as a second baseman with 351, 74 more than Ryne Sandberg. Five-time All-Star, National League MVP in 2000. Drafted from Cal (Go Bears!) by the Toronto Blue Jays in 1989, MLB debut in 1992. Played for 6 different teams, including the Blue Jays, New York Mets, Cleveland Indians, San Francisco Giants, Houston Astros, and the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Great career, future Hall of Famer, no doubt. But here we're more interested in what else he's done.

Oh, let's see what comes to mind...


Bonds and Kent, or Kent and Bonds; one of the best 3-4 punch in baseball. On the field, yes. Off the field, arch-nemesis. Here's a story on ESPN about how Kent took Bonds' seat in a van. Way to start off your Giants career with a bang, Jeff. But I have to admit, your San Francisco days were your best.

Like the time Kent and Bonds shoved each other in the Giants dugout on national television. That was classic. Here's an ESPN recap, involving a migrating coconut debate.


And then there was the motorcycle incident. Kent got hurt. He said he slipped off his truck while washing it. He actually fell off his bike trying to pop a wheelie. What a loser. (Check out more stupid athlete injuries here!)

Oh Jeff Kent, how I'm going to miss your whining and bitching at everyone in your way, because that's how you are. You never back down. But since you're a Dodger, you had no choice but to retire. You learned from the past. First, you suck. Second, Hollywood isn't big enough for 2 superegotastic maniacal freaks.

Cameron Morrah in the NFL

- Original post from TPIC -

Cal tight end Cameron Morrah has decided to forego his senior year and enter the 2009 NFL draft.

NFL scouts, college recruits, and other speculators--primarily just me--question this decision. So here's a couple scenarios that I think may or may not happen regarding Cameron Morrah in the NFL.

Take #1, Action!

Cal is deep at the tight end position, with Tad Smith, Anthony Miller, and Spencer Ladner. Good decision to let others evaluate you at your peak season and predict what you can or can't do.

6'4", 250 lbs, TREMENDOUS catching abilities in a sort of weak pool of tight ends following a 27 catch, 326 yard, 8 touchdown season (Cal tight end record) make Morrah a pretty decent pickup for any NFL team. He has a good upside.


Plus, deciding to turn pro for your grandma so she can watch you succeed at every level of football throughout your life shows that you will definitely play with heart. 4th or 5th rounder, any takers?

Take #2, Action!

Cameron Morrah you ass! Listen to Coach Tedford and stay in school. You could be a receiving threat for Cal next year, leading the Golden Bears to a Rose Bowl victory. What sounds so bad with Kevin Riley, Jahvid Best, and Cameron Morrah?

Your game would have develop so much more and your stats would've impressed waaaaaaaaay more people. Do you really think that one decent season means a $1 million contract in the NFL? Grow up, son!

Say goodbye to your Cal fame...

KCCal adds:

Right now it is a bit early to tell where Morrah will end up. Mel Kiper will probably put him in at a 4th rounder. McShay will probably put him at a 5th. Then they'll start bitching at each other about it. Then again, maybe Morrah will end up at neither, because we all know that Kiper's hair takes up at least the 6th and 7th rounds of the big board.

My prediction is a 6th rounder with the out come of having a 10 percent chance of getting signed, 40 percent chance in Mark Cuban's new league, the UFL, and 50 percent chance of becoming a P.E. teacher. All in all, those aren't bad options considering the job market.

I also forgot to add the 0.1 pecent chance of making it big and to the Pro Bowl. Then he can roll around Berkeley in the off season and throw wads of cash in all his doubter's faces. I for one will gladly be the first in line if this event happens.

Super Bowl XLIII, What in the World?

- Original post from TPIC -

Nobody's buying it, not even Las Vegas. Sports books are making the Pittsburgh Steelers 6.5 point favorites over the Arizona Cardinals.

The Arizona Cardinals.

Superbowl XLIII.

The Arizona Cardinals, Superbowl champions?

We know the world is going through an economic crisis, but the Arizona Cardinals? Underdogs are underdogs, but the Arizona Cardinals?

Larry Fitzgerald is a BEAST and one of the best wide receivers in the game,

but the Arizona Cardinals?

However many times I say it, I still can't believe I'm using these two phrases in the same sentence.

Arizona Cardinals. Superbowl. Arizona Cardinals. Superbowl. Arizona Cardinals. Superbowl.

That does not flow well at all. I'm going to have to sit on this one for quite some time.

Mark Sanchez and Pete Carroll Break Up

- Original post from TPIC -

Congratulations Mark Sanchez, you're going to the NFL, going to play with the big boys now after starting only 16 college football games.

And way to go pissing off Pete Carroll. Now he's stuck with a junior transfer, a no-name sophomore, and another incoming freshman.

Mark Sanchez, Pete Carroll, USC. It was good while it lasted, but the REAL story for this weekend is...

San Francisco Giants pitcher Barry Zito.

First you do Alyssa Milano, then you win the AL Cy Young. Your career was on a roll--hot woman, sick curveball, surfing in the California sun, rocking out on your guitar--until you found Disney alum Hilary Duff. We let that slide, and now you hit rock bottom the past 2 years with the San Francisco Giants.

How do you top that? You go and get herpes.

Nostalgia Friday: Etch-A-Sketch

- Original post from TPIC -

I was going to describe and explain how cool and awesome the Etch-A-Sketch was and still is, but I'll shut up and let the pictures do the talking. Prepare to be amazed.







There's a lot more where that came from. Just google it!
