Another winning weekend for the King. Hopefully we can continue the streak. This CFB Saturday is kind of light on games I like, but should be enough to tide me over while I am away golfing and bowling in the lovely central new Jersey area. Enjoy and good luck. (For entertainment purposes only)
Georgia Tech v Virginia 12PM
Virginia is coming in hot winning their last three games after an 0-3 start. But that was against mediocre at best competition (North Carolina, Indiana, Maryland). Now comes the scorching Yellow Jackets and their triple option led by QB Josh Nesbitt. The man has rushed for 262 yards and six touchdowns in wins over Florida St and Virginia Tech. Add RB’s Jonathan Dwyer, Anthony Allen, and Roddy Jones into the mix and this team will put up points. The Cavs already have an inept offense. And it doesn’t help to have a hobbled QB Jameel Sewell. Give me the Jackets
Yesterday, Deadspin reacted to the Steve Phillips news by going ahead and publishing pretty much every rumor of bad behavior at ESPN that they’ve ever received.
Today, a spokesperson for ESPN responded. Angrily:
Yesterday was my favorite Sports Illustrated day of the year: NBA Preview Day!!! But after an initial skim of the magazine, I came across this ad on the back cover.
This couldn’t have been executed any better. Watch as Fox has one Phillies fan cursing while simultaneously split screening another trying to dance on a moving taxi. They had last year to practice and they are still messing it up. Former Philly mayor John Street would have none of this.
Mark Sanchez might have struggled on the field this past Sunday, but off it he is on top of his game. Page Six reports:
“The Jets quarterback was seen swapping numbers with a blond bartender at Johnny Utah’s on Monday night. Sanchez was celebrating his brother’s 30th birthday with his family. The barkeep was model/actress Ariana Madix, who played for the New York Majesty team in the notorious Lingerie Bowl. A spy said, “They were talking about football, and Ariana asked for his number.”
Who needs to worry about throwing in bad weather when you can have some model ease your pains. I just wonder if Mark rode the mechanical bull at Johnny Utah’s?
I have finally figured out what’s wrong with the Tennesee Titans this season. Lot’s of experts have been blaming the loss of Albert Haynesworth or the fact that defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz left to become the headman in Detroit.
These are all interesting ideas, which could explain how last years’s 13 win outfit is now winless through nearly half the season. But, they are wrong.
The real reason is that, instead of working on gameplans, head coach Jeff Fisher has been spending his weeks running the Parks department in Pawnee, Indiana.
The ongoing trend of designers using famous married couples continues. Following in the footsteps of Armani and the Beckham’s, London Fog has found their own celebrity twosome in Tony Parker and Eva Longoria.
Seriously, WTF! Alex Rodriguez got all up in Derek Jeter’s business last night. The occasional butt slap is all right, but it is totally unnecessary to cup and lift another man’s behind.
Look at how AROD sprints to get to the steps before Jeter got to the top. Like this was all premeditated. Thanks to Tirico Suave for making my morning.
