The TNT team of Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley put on the best pregame, halftime, postgame out there. I am talking pure entertainment value. Take EJ and Kenny getting Chuck a “Shake Weight” to help with his diet.

And then they watch as they set him up with this age-old question.

We start this week with some reader feedback.

Marcus responded to my complaints about SI arriving last last week with this comment:

The SI’s always a day late on NCAA title week, because the game is late Monday night; SI’s deadline is usually Sunday events. It’s been like this for about 47 straight years, which would be pretty obvious if you weren’t trying so hard to be sarcastic and funny.

First of all, Marcus, thanks for reading. Now that you mention it, I do think I may have known that, even if the fact was lost somewhere in the recesses of my mind. The number 47 seems rather arbitary, though.

Your comment does not, however, change the fact that I do not like to recieve my Sports Illustrated a day late. As I said last week, it throws off my weekly schedule, and I am a big fan of routine.

Lastly, go fuck yourself.

On to this week’s issue, which is a great one. Sports Illustrated, April 19th 2010.

Ahead of next week’s NFL draft, Ndamukong Suh was on Jimmy Fallon last night.

I just made my spell check cry

This kid below, Matthew Clemens, 21 from New Jersey, was jailed after he intentionally puked on an off-duty cop and his 11-year-old daughter at a Phillies game. While the cop got played, it looks like he knocked this kid the f out — and rightfully so it sounds. Here’s the in interview with the cop:

Landon Donovan seems to be enjoying the Gillette Fusion ProGlide a lot more than Derek Jeter and Matt Ryan.

Yes, that George Will.

He was educated at Oxford and Princeton, taught at Harvard, won a Pulitzer Prize, and has received more than a dozen honorary degrees. He’s a noted scholar, author and social commentator, and now, he’s the subject of a SportsCracklePop interview.

Our discussion centers on a new edition of Mr. Will’s “Men at Work: The Craft of baseball” It was first released 20 years ago, but, this week, hits store shelves again with a new introduction by the author.

I’m still shocked sometimes by what this here internet makes possible.

This ended up being Cristiano Ronaldo week here at SCP. First was the rumor linking him to Imogen Thomas, then the spectacular story of CR9′s love for “fat girls.” Now we hear about a possible love connection between the soccer playboy and Kim Kardashian.

“The ex-Playboy glamour girl was spotted SNOGGING in a top restaurant with cheeky winker Ronaldo, 25, after watching him play for Real Madrid.

And later she jumped in a chauffeur-driven Mercedes G-Wagon which discreetly followed Ronaldo’s Audi RS6 back to his city mansion.

Kim stayed about four hours. The following day she was driven to the airport in the same car to fly home to the States.”

I would love to see these two in a relationship! (My approval is all that counts in this world) And as you can see in the picture, Terrell Owens does as well.

Jay-Z continues to make his case as world’s best Yankee fan.

First, he teamed with Alicia Keys to provide the theme song to last year’s championship run, while pointing out that he has done wonders for the team’s image internationally. He put it a different way, though.

Catch me at the X with OG at a Yankee game,
shit I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can,

But now, he’s topped that.

JAY-Z IS SUING BIG PAPI!!!

As the NBA playoffs loom, we provide this advice for the players from our favorite TV character of the season, Manny Delgado, on the topic of layups:

They are deceptively hard. A curious mix of dance and strength.

So true, young man, so true.

Well according to gossip floating around the internet he does. Momento 24 brings us this gem from one of Cristiano Ronaldo’s flings.

“Naya, 21 years old, told her story that began with these exact words “Cristiano Ronaldo said to me: ‘ Fat girls suck it very well.” So he chose me.”

Naya ’s ‘tender story’ continued: “Ronaldo f… me three times. I give him 9.5, if not 10 points as a lover.”

The girl detailed how former Manchester United “had condoms in his Dolce & Gabbana cowboy boots, but in the third time he did not use any.”

Naya did not hesitate to slash a phrase to remember, asked about ‘Ronaldo’s size’: “If his cock was a pizza, it would be a large size pizza.”

I guess my definition of “fat” is different than CR9′s. AND TOO MUCH INFORMATION.
