Imagine being the "govenor" of Red Sox Nation in Raleigh, NC and comming home to find your entire house and collection of Red Sox memorabilia vandalized with NY Yankee logos. This happened to Sean Bunn last week. Read the story after the jump.
Georgia needed two big wins on Sunday to keep their College World Series hopes alive, and they got them in convincing fashion. First up was an afternoon revenge game against Lipscomb. As you may have heard, the Dawgs took quite a "dump" against the Bison in their opener, losing 10-7 despite home field advantage. This time, however, the "dump" was on Lipscomb as the Dawgs piled up 21 hits on their way to a 14-3 victory/reenactment of the hunting scene from Dances With Wolves.
Next up was, of course, the all too convenient rivaly matchup with the Yellow Jackets. Given the way the Dawgs had played of late (Read: the Regionals, SEC Tournament, and last 1/3 or so of the season in general) my hopes weren't particularly high for this one, but I was obviously happy to seem them prove me wrong. You know, a win would have been fine, I would have been more than happy to admit I'd sold my Dawgs short at that point, but Georgia pitcher Nick Montgomery decided he needed to rub it in. Montgomery gave up just 4 hits to Tech on his way to a complete game shutout, the first time Georgia had blanked the Jackets in nearly 40 years. I'll take it.
Hopefully the Dawgs will decide to rub it in a little more tonight around 7:00 pm (don't worry Dawgs, I can handle it), when they'll need to hand Tech its 2nd Regional loss in order to advance to the Super Regionals against a hot N.C. State club. Unfortunately, I won't be able to help pull them through on the tele, so I guess I'll just have to keep passively watching College Softball (Read: staring at/searching for hot Softball players). It's not all bad out there, you know...
Not too long ago, Hollywood starlet Eva Mendes let us all know how she felt about fur: She rather go naked. I tend to agree. I much rather see Eva naked than wearing a full length mink, but hey, that's just me. So I guess once you let the world know of your particular distaste for something, it's only right to come back later and reveal what you have a taste for, like your own feet, which Mendes has kindly done in this month's Vogue Italia. . .
[Courtesy of KTLA] Houston -- Three Texas teens have been arrested after police say one told them that they had dug up a skull and fashioned it into a bong to smoke pot.
Authorities say the teens dug up Willie Simms' grave in what is most likely a 19th century veterans grave yard, broke off the skull and smoked marijuana from it.
Police were led to the grave site where they found a knocked over headstone and a water-filled hole more than four-feet deep. Two of the teens, who are each 17, are charged with misdemeanor abuse of a corpse. A third, who is 16, is in the juvenile justice system.
In an expected and loathesome decision today, John Swofford announced that the BCS was in an "unprecedented state of health" and will not adjust its format to the excruciatingly logical "+1" scenario that college football fans from coast to coast have been pining for since the birth of the BCS.
Let's be honest, we all know that Roger Clemens was doin' the juice; but did we ever in our wildest dreams think he was doin' 15 year-old karaoke singers too?
"The fight started Saturday night after a reception when he knocked her to the floor with a karate kick in the seventh-floor hallway of a Holiday Inn — and escalated when she attacked two guests from another wedding party who came to her aid, police said."
Reverend Jeremiah Wright rushed back from his vacation in the Caribbean this week to make appearances on PBS with Bill Moyers and The National Press Club in order to reiterate that Barack Obama will be completely unelectable in the general election come this fall.
The Heels lost two of the three core talents primarily responsible for their stellar 2007-2008 basketball season today. Point guard Ty Lawson and sharp shooting Wayne "Pretty Boy" Ellington, both Sophomores, have declared for the NBA Draft, though neither will apparently sign with an agent. This of course gives them the option to return for the Junior campaigns should they choose to do so at a later date.
Meanwhile, National Player of the Year Tyler Hansbrough has made it official that he'll be returning for his Senior season as a Tar Heel. That's a bold move coming from a player whose draft stock has almost certainly plateaued, though I suppose it can't get much worse either. Coming back also gives Tyler a legitimate shot at breaking J.J. Redick's ACC scoring records; potentially a great story there for next season.
In the wake Tyler's accolades and his refreshing decision to spend 4 entire seasons as an amateur athlete, Frumpzilla would like to honor Hansbrough with a brief tribute. After the jump of course...
Jones allegedly made it rain more than previously thought in connection with the Vegas shootings that led to his 2007 suspension. Reports are out indicating that the troubled corner had over $15,000 extorted from him by Arvin Kenti Edwards, a man now in custody in connection with the shootings at Vegas' Harlem Knights strip club. Apparently Edwards threatened Jones and his family, and went through the former West Virginia star's friends and relatives in order to secure the payments for "services rendered". Jones flew to Seattle earlier to identify Edwards as the gunman and extortioner and continues to maintain that he had no role in the actual shootings whatsoever.
More details in the link, but, all in all, I'd say $15,000 was a bargain under the circumstances, and apparently Jones has been cooperating with the authorities for quite some time now, which is good. Nevertheless, it seems a bit unclear how this may affect Pacman's path to being reinstated by the league. Was this simply "hush money", or something connected to the investigation, or maybe just money Jones genuinely believed was necessary to ensure his family's safety? Regardless, it'll be interesting to see how all this pans out.
WRIGHTSVILLE, Georgia-- Many people think they know the legendary Herschel Walker, and that's because they've probably met him in person and hung out with him. He's a famous running back who won the 1982 Heisman Trophy.
