Justin Tuck's newest facemask looks like something Tom Hardy's character Bane will wear in the new Batman movie. I'm presuming there is some logical reason behind the extra bars other than trying to look menacing. Is to keep offensive tackles hands and/or fingers from grabbing his helmet by the mask? Or is Tuck trying to lure Bruce Wayne out of his batcave?
In the immortal words of LA Kings captain Dustin Brown: "IT'S WHY WE FUCKING PLAY!" Yep. To drink out of Lord Stanley's Cup you can pretty much say whatever you want. Congratulations go out to the Kings who won their first Stanley Cup in their 44 year history. It must feel good to be champs. Hell it must feel good to still have a team.

Bravo Erin Andrews. You go from Atlanta Thrashers intermission reporter to ESPN sideline princess to leaked nude hotel pictures to Dancing with the Stars and now you've upgraded the girls. Hey I'm not complaining. If someone ones to make themselves look better than so be it. But I don't want hear a denial when some reporter asks if she has gotten work done. Just be honest. It's all for the publicity right? I got your back Erin.
I don't think I've ever seen a more disturbing picture than this one of Lakers center and fellow countryman Paul Gasol "embracing" Rafa Nadal after winning his 7th French Open Title this morning. With the zombies in Miami and Maryland and the guy chopping up dudes and sending them in the mail up in Canada I think it's only a matter of time before a report comes out on Gasol here. Look at that fucking look on his face. Hannibal Lecter is ripe with jealousy.
"Come here my precious...you did good...now I must eat your brains!"
Yeah this picture is going to haunt kid's dreams for years to come. Tennis already was a dying sport. I can't imagine the effect this will have on it.

Lebron James exploded for 45 points, 15 rebounds, and 5 assists in Game 6 last night and pretty much put the Heat on his back in an elimination game. Lebron hit 19 of 26 from the field and finally played fearless when in the past he has been passive in big game situations. As expected the Boston Celtics crowd took it with class and in their usual chowder head mentality decided to give Lebron a beer as he left the court. Unfortunately the person didn't hand him the beer and instead decided to toss it to him. Cool move bro.
I was rooting for the Celtics till that dick move. Now I hope the Heat destroy them in South Beach.
Seattle Sonics Oklahoma City Thunder on their impressive comeback last night vs the Spurs and finishing off Coach Pop's timeless warriors for the Western Conference Championship. The Tri-City Herald (Kennewick, WA) put out this knife to the gut sports section today. Bravo I say. Why not put a little humor in a bad situation? It's why I always laugh and point at the dead people at funerals.
Jesus Maria. Calm the fuck down. It's just a basketball game. It's not like it's some important competition followed worldwide like Dancing With The Stars. Nobody outside of Boston gives a shit about the Celtics. Now get back to doing what you do best. Which is...shit...I don't know...just put on a bikini and smile will ya?

Less than 5 days after Notre Dame and coach Brian Kelly secured their biggest commitment with the #1 outside linebacker in the nation (#4 overall) in Jaylon Smith today 4 star defensive end Isaac Rochell from Georgia made his commitment to the Irish public also.
Both players are elite defensive standouts who were being recruited nationally with among some of the best SEC schools craving their commitments. Kelly and his staff are slowly building a defense that can compete with some of the SEC schools by getting players like Rochell out of the South.
Here are some highlights of Smith. Smith is the biggest recruit of the Kelly era (transfer Aaron Lynch and current QB Gunner Kiel a close second) and should compete right away as a freshman in 2013 for the dog or the mike linebacker positions in South Bend especially with the departure of senior captain Manti Te'o. Smith's athleticism is off the charts with sub 4.5 speed and a build that is ready to compete in the college game.
Rochell is the second elite defensive end from Georgia to come to Notre Dame in the past 3 seasons joining current freshman starter Stephon Tuitt. Tuitt was a 5 star defensive end and Rochell isn't quite up to his billing but he did turn down LSU, FSU and Florida among others when he picked Notre Dame today. A top 100 player in the nation and the #8 defensive end Rochell should compete for the 2 deep in 2013.
I'm not going to miss the Whoopi Goldberg/Predator-look Julio Jones had rocking since his college days at Bama. Julio looks more professional now. Kind of like Justin Blackmon behind a steering wheel at 3 am professional ya know?
San Diego Padres second baseman Logan Forsythe brought back memories of Robby Alomar with this sweet play to the hole. Smooth play kid.
Yeah I hate this song as much as the next guy but if you check out the cheerleaders and put the song on mute it's tolerable.

Is that Dan Lebatard squealing "Good Job Good Effort!" to the downtrodden Miami Heat as they walk off a horrible Game 5 loss on their home court? I only saw the 4th quarter last night but if there was any doubt who the Heat are going to go to when the game is on the line it's most certainly not Lebron James. It's almost as if Lebron is scared to have the game in his hands when he should be taking the ball to the hoop every possession instead of deferring to Dwayne Wade. But I guess if he is a King he relies on others to take the fall for his faults.
I love this kind of stuff. Just seeing people scared shitless. I'm not going to lie and say I would stand up to a fake zombie. My ass would be running faster than Usain Bolt. If you look closely at the 2:00 mark you can see some guy pull a gun. Bullets only make Miami zombies snarl.

Hahahaha.
Real fucking funny video game nerds.
Herschel Walker in an Auburn uniform.
Desmond asshat Howard in a Notre Dame uniform.
I consider myself to be a rationale, sensible fan with no big bouts of rage or violence when it comes to sports but all I saw was blood in my eyes when they showed Desmond sporting the Blue and Gold. Are you fucking kidding me?
Whoever decided to give this the go ahead must work for Curt Schilling because it's about the dumbest fucking idea I've ever heard of.
"Yeah haha wouldn't it be great to have Herschel playing on Auburn and Bo Jackson playing on Georgia?" I can pretty much guarantee no true college football fanatic would think it's either a great idea or even worth mentioning it without receiving a black eye.
Thank god almighty they didn't show Tim Brown wearing a Trojans uniform or I would have gone Columbine on the whole EA Sports "creative" team if you know what I mean. Sorry that is being a little harsh. I meant to say I would gouge out their nerdy little eyes and skull fuck the shit out of them. Ah. Much better. Moving on now. Let's just pretend this conversation never happened.
You got to feel for the reigning NL MVP (not a misprint, he was the winner, not Braun) in just Matt Kemp's second game back from the disabled list he re-aggravated the same hamstring rounding the bases last night and went ballistic on a poor bat. I can't blame him. Lingering injuries like hamstrings are the worst. One time I got a paper cut and it took me a good 3-4 days before I could start typing like I wanted to before. And like Kemp I broke some lumber because of the frustration of having to type with my elbows. Granted the lumber was a thin #2 pencil but those things don't break as easily as one would think. It took me at least two karate chops and a couple of tears to break through the yellow ink that makes those damn pencils so hard to shatter. It's tough for athletes like myself and Kemp to sit on the sidelines for any period of time. Two peas in a pod you could say.

As you know I make fun of USC for a lot of things because A)they're Notre Dame's biggest rival and B)OJ Simpson was a Trojan and C)they can't sell out home games and D)my sister is currently an undergrad there but this new story that just "exploded all over our faces" about the Coliseum being the setting for a porno
I can not. Because seriously who doesn't enjoy porn?
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, home of the USC Trojans, was the setting for a porno movie in 2001. The publicly-owned stadium was used to film “The Gangbang Girl #32.” Shooting took place on one night. Scenes were filmed in a locker room, the Trojans’ tunnel and on the field.
“I was just in awe that we were at the Coliseum,” said a star of the film, who goes by the name Mr. Marcus. “I’ve made movies for about 20 years and I’ve done a lot of things, but that one really stands out.… I mean, who gets to have sex on the Coliseum floor?”
It’s not clear how the company, Anabalic Video, gained access to the stadium and had the lights turned on, though the stadium’s former general manager left the post in 2011 when he was indicted for receiving kickbacks in an unrelated corruption case.
