This is apparently from about a month ago. Either he suffers from some sort of speech disability, in which case I feel bad making fun of him, or he’s high as a kite. I would prefer the latter, for comedy’s sake.

Lebron was on the Daily Show last night. Jon Stewart did his best to convince King James that he should move to the Big Apple next summer.

Injury might not be the only reason Rafael Nadal lost in straight sets to Juan Martin Del Potro. I mean it probably was the US Open champs powerful serve and punishing forehand that did him in. But I would like to think one female pop star had something to do with it.

“Rafael Nadal has a girlfriend, but it didn’t stop him from flirting with Shakira the other night. Before his loss in the US Open semi-final, the Spanish ace was at Nobu Tribeca…They were each there with a friend, but once they started talking, they moved to a table alone for some privacy,” said one witness. “There was flirting going on.”

Page Six always trying to stir up trouble. Can’t the man go and enjoy the wonderful black cod with miso in peace.

It seems that online retailer Wickedelic Lingerie held an online poll to find the “hottest lingerie model on the planet.” And the winner was none other than Marko Jaric’s wife Adriana Lima. I don’t really know how much weight a poll like this carries, but it does give me good enough reason to post pictures of the lovely Victoria Secret model.

Obviously, there was a lot going on yesterday.  There was football and and the president on 60 minutes and Lady Gaga literally scaring me. Also there was US Open tennis. Most Notably, there was this. A shot Roger Federer says was better than anything he’s ever done in his life:

So glad the NFL is back. I might be happier than normal as it seems that every straight bet and parlay hit for me.

Luckily I didn’t have any action on that Denver/Cincinnati game. This miraculous Brandon Stokley play might have ruined me. Although it seems to have made Gus Johnson’s day. What announcer would you rather have call the ending to this. Too bad Hard Knocks ended filming. I would have loved to see the Bengals locker room reaction.

When I watched Michael Jordan’s induction speech to the Hall of Fame I hoped it would never end. It brought back memories of my childhood. From watching him get roughed up against the “Bad Boys” of Detroit to hitting that infamous shot in Game 6 off of Byron Russell. Everytime I stepped on the court I tried to emulate MJ. Everyone I knew did.

This morning I logged onto Twitter to read what others had to say about the speech. Many were saying how “arrogant” and “conceited” Michael sounded. Did you see the man play? Didn’t he always play with an air of arrogance? He is the freaking GREATEST OF ALL TIME! Jordan always played with a chip on his shoulder. He always had something to prove. And this was his way of telling all of that he made it. Can’t people just appreciate the honesty. Or would all of us just like to hear some fluffed up pre-written piece?

Maybe it’s just me, but Michael kept me fully entertained and had me running the gauntlet of emotions. From smiles to tears…just like any good speech should.

It has been a while since The Softball Guy graced us with his presence, but thanks to JoeSportsFan he gives us another video summing up his summer softball season. I have to say the man cleans up well.

With the new season of television shows beginning to air over the next couple of weeks, companies are unleashing their new ads on us consumers. There are two in particular that I found pretty amusing. First is the Sony commercial featuring Peyton Manning, Justin Timberlake, and Erin Andrews. It was great how they have Peyton and JT playing ping pong. And then adding the Mandarin. Just a great way to stereotype!

Why in the world is he hanging out with LenDale White and Chris Johnson on gameday. Shouldn’t he be with Willie Parker and Rashard Mendenhall?
