O My My MY!

There have been some VERY interesting happenings in sports this past week! So, I decided to just give a few comments on them all instead of focusing on one each.

First, Farve! This man has won me over. I used to roll my eyes and hope that someone would go to his first "post-retire" game with a tranquilizer gun and put him out before his first pass. BUT, I have to admit, he is one crusty, stubborn old fart! Will he retire? AGAIN? Well, his answer was basically NO! He says, he will play if he is "healthy," which of course he will be...he'll make SURE to be! Anyway, I give up, go Farve!

Then....Oh boy! Tyson Gay beat Usain "big head"Bolt! And even though both of their times were nowhere near Bolt's record time he ran in the 2008 Olympics, it STILL gives Gay bragging rights. He didn't just beat him in this last race in Stockholm, he smoked him! I'm glad I can say that Gay beat Bolt, even if it was a result of Bolt being out of shape and coming from an Achilles injury. A win is a win! Congrats Gay!

Next, WOWZER! Did I just see that? Did I just watch Chael Sonnen practically murder Anderson Silva for four rounds, and even most of the fifth and STILL lose the fight? What, does Silva have some type of Brazilian leprechaun bringing him luck? To be honest, I had a feeling that Anderson might lose this fight because Sonnen was so darn confident he'd win! Ever heard that saying "mind over matter?" Well it turns out, Sonnen not only had the mind, he had the matter! He got Silva where he hurt: wrestling. So, wrestling is Anderson Silva's cryptonite! I'm surprised that in all his 12 straight wins, no one has faced him that could wrestle. He hasn't lost since 2006, so that was a HUGE oversight. Sonnen was pretty smart to recognize that Silva, who has been hailed as the best MMA fighter pound for pound, had a huge weakness. So, I'm tickled pink that Silva did win by submission over Sonnen in the end, but kudos for Sonnen for giving him a HARD won fight! I smell a rematch!

And last...take a look at the photo above....this is why I love Tim Tebow.....he is humble enough to withstand some rookie hazing (take notes Dez Bryant). He looks so cute! LOL

Shaqzilla!!

Ack! Someone call the army! It's a big Shaq attack! Shaq is on a NBA rampage. He has decided to pillage through as many teams as he possibly can before he becomes a myth like his brother, Sasquatch. He goes through teams like he goes thru his make ups and break ups with Shawnie. Okay, so we have to watch his big fat azz run up and down the court with the Boston Celtics for ONE mo year. One more year of Shaq looking cross-eyed into the camera as he is interviewed answering questions about Kobe, and "getting that fifth ring." LOL, okay, let me stop, I really do like Shaq. And what I like about him, is that he would read what I am saying about him and craaack up! He has a great sense of humor and personality. I always wish him well, I just wish he would stop being a team hoe! And I wish he would stop going to teams that HATE the Lakers! What is his problem with them?? I know, KOBE, even tho they are supposedly on good terms now. They are like the Paris and Nicole of the NBA, the "frenemies." Okay Shaq, I love you man, but I can't wish you well if you play for Boston...sorry. Man, this NBA season is gonna be like watching a soap opera! :D

I was WRONG!!

All right, all right, I admit it...I WAS WRONG! I was wrong about LeBron "Chump" James. Just Kidding! James may be a coward, but he's probably no chump. He just may finally get his first championship ring with the Miami Heat. I mean, if he can't do it there, he just can't do it ANYWHERE. Granted, it's in his right to want to win THAT bad, but he just totally trashed his legacy with this decision to go to Miami and blend in with two other super stars: Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. Even if he does win a ring, it will be bittersweet. No one will be calling him a legend 20 years after he retires. He'll just be "one of those good guys who played some good ball in his career." Despite the idea that what he has just done is tantamount to cheating, in my view, LeBron is a classic "mommas boy" and it's all too clear after this "leaving Cleveland for Miami" fiasco. Seriously, who tells the WHOLE world "I talked it over with my momma, and she said it was a good idea to go to Miami..." This kid just can't stop castrating and embarrassing himself, it seems. So...Miami has a super team and now a full roster. The pressure is on them. Let the games begin! It looks like the Eastern Conference is basically in the bag at this point, but time will tell. I have to say, I wonder what LeBron's strategy will be if he doesn't win right away in Miami? I can see them winning maybe one or two, but he won't get five or more there in the time he has left in his career....And now he is trying to make nicey nice with his hometown Akron, Ohio. On a positive note, maybe he will finally do the RIGHT thing and marry his two-time baby momma! Go Lakers!! :D
