Jeremy Roenick in Vegas
Here's Jeremy Roenick at the Palms hotel in Vegas for the NHL Awards last week. There might be a reason I'm not extremely wealthy...I think I'd most likely be dead by now if I had the kind of money these guys have. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that I only make a 'normal' salary? I'm pretty sure both of those bartenders got it by the way.

This Guy is Playing Shaq in HORSE
Shaq has offered Bruce Manley $1,000 to play him in a game of horse. The only rules are that Shaq can't dunk and Manley won't shoot free throws. The game is tentatively scheduled for early July. If Shaq can't dunk, is there any way he wins this game?? There's no chance! Have you ever seen Shaq try to actually shoot a basketball? It's pathetic! I'm putting the mortgage on my boy Bruce!

Why do people do this? Seriously...what is the point? Running onto the field makes no sense to me, whatsoever. Congratulations, you interrupted the game and got arrested in the process. Somebody tell this fat f*ck to do some sit ups.
Brazil Defeats US 3-2
The US lost, which is no surprise to anyone. Brazil dicked around in the first half and found themselves in a hole at the break. They came out in the second half, scored in the first minute and it was on from there.
Brazil outshot the US 24-8. 11 on goal to 4.
Tim Howard is a monster and came up huge. However, when you get bombarded with shot after shot, there's only so much you can do.
Terps 2009 Football Preview: Game 5
10/03/09 Terps vs Clemson (ACC, 4-4, Overall, 7-6)
2008: Terps Won 20-17
Review and Preview: Clemson had an extremely disappointing season last year, starting out the season ranked #9 in the pre-season polls (goes to show how much those mean) and ended up in the Konica Minolta Gator Bowl against Nebraska. Their QB led the ACC in passing (200 yards per game) and CJ Spiller led the ACC in All-Purpose Yards. They had a close game with the Terps in College Park, getting shutout in the second half by the Terps and losing 20-17.
Both teams seem to play extremely well as the away team in this match up. The Terps have looked very good in Death Valley and Clemson has shown their ability to play well at Byrd Stadium. This worries me since we happen to be the home team in this one. It could come down to the running game on both sides. James Davis and CJ Spiller versus Da’Rel and Meggett. Which run game can have a game breaker? Which running game won’t turn the ball over?
The Pick: Clemson had the 36th ranked run defense in 2008 and the Terps were 71st. Not f*cking good for the Terps. I think CJ has a big day with too much speed for the Terps defense. Along with a Terps loss I also predict my drunken blackout to occur during the post game show. Terps lose 24-17. (ACC, 0-1, Overall, 4-1).

Crazy Bat Tricks
Maybe this guy should work a little more on actually hitting the ball instead of flinging his bat around. That might help him make it out of double A...just a thought.
Terps 2009 Football Preview: Game 4
2008: Did Not Play, Terps won 34-24 in 07’
Review and Preview: Who can forget Chris Turner’s coming out party in 2007 in Piscataway, New Jersey against the 10th ranked team in the land, Rutgers? In case you did let me recap. After Jordan Steffy struggled in the 1st half Big Ralph made the best move of his coaching career and put Chris Turner in for the second half. All he did was go 14-20 and threw for 149 yards to lead the Terps to 20 points in the second half. That’s right, the goofy Napoleon Dynamite look a like sent #10 Rutgers, 40,000 dirty Jersey fans, Ray Rice and his mom home crying.
Rutgers is losing their QB and two top wide receivers, but they return all of their offensive line and they are pretty damn good. I did a lot of research and found most people have Rutgers picked to win the Big East (which isn’t saying a helluva a lot), and college football genius Phil Steele has them ranked #16 in the country. However, what happens when Rutgers gets near the top of the mountain? They get their asses thrown back down to the bottom. Ranked #10 twice in two years, they lost to Cincy and the Terps.
The Pick: Lets be honest here, we aren’t talking about basketball where it was a legit argument the Big East was better than the ACC. We are talking about football and the Big East is weak and overrated. The game is at Maryland, where unless we are playing Florida State, we are going to win. Close game though, Terps win 28-24. Terps (ACC, 0-0, Overall, 4-0)

No surprise Griffin went #1 to the Clippers. Here's a look at some of the pre-draft workouts Blake went through. Looks like a piece of cake to me.

Perez Hilton = Biggest Douche Ever
Tell me you don't want to shoot yourself in the face after listening to this clown. Who in their right mind talks like that?? Will I Am, who I also can't stand should have beaten Perez, or is he Mario now, to a bloody pulp. This guy is hands down the biggest douchebag ever.

MMA Fighter Is Happy He Lost
How about instead of celebrating the fact that you just got your ass kicked and nearly died, man up and go after the guy, sucker punch him or something. Atleast don't let him nearly kill you in public and then go shake his hand like you're buddies and start doing backflips.
Shaq Going to Cavs
I'm pretty sure all Shaq needs to do for the entire regular season is stay in shape, shoot free throws and hook shots at practice, and play one game every five to ten games just to stay fresh. Lebron can carry the Cavs into the playoffs as a 2 or 3 seed, and then they can unleash Big Diesel in the playoffs.
With that said I don't think this alone will make them the clear cut favorite, but it sure as hell puts them in the conversation. Spurs, Cavs, Celtics, and Lakers are the top contenders, and watch out for the Knicks of course. The draft could also have an impact, so stay tuned for that tonight.
Terps Football 2009: Game 3
2008: Beat Terps 24-14
Review and Preview: How the hell did we lose to the Blue Raiders of Middle Tennessee last year 24-14? Chris Turner had 3 interceptions and was sacked 3 times by “The Swarming and Punishing” Blue Raider defense. Although Darrius Heyward-Bey had an 80 yard touchdown reception, he only had 2 other receptions for a total of 10 yards. Middle Tennessee must have had a helluva scout team doing research for their defense that week. Enough of the terrible loss and on to the preview.
The Blue Raiders have a Sophomore QB named Dwight Dasher, who is going to try and cause some havoc for the Terps defense by running the ball (he had one start as a running back in 2007). Obviously this guy thinks he is the Michael Vick of the Sunbelt Conference, so the Terps are going to have to prepare their defense for this clown.
Look for the Terps wide receiving core (Averaging 6-0, 192) to have a significant size and strength advantage over the Blue Raider corner backs (Averaging 5-9, 175). I expect Chris Turner to torch this Blue Raider defense and avenge last year’s loss. The 22,605 fans in attendance at last years game at Middle Tennessee was their sixth largest all-time. Expect a Byrd Stadium at almost maximum capacity (51,000+) since the loyal Terps fans will not forget last years loss. Click Clack Bitches!
The Pick: Terps win 28-6. Terps (ACC, 0-0, Overall, 3-0)
