Worst... Soccer Miss... Ever

Watch and be amazed.


How do you not feel bad for this man. I don't know the outcome but just imagine if his team lost. He would be getting millions of death threats. On the other hand. Sign me up!!! I can make that shot.

Carson Palmer is killing my fantasy team

Last few years Palmer has been a stud and I benefitted from that. Now, he is single handedly destroying my team. He gotten a total of 4 points in 2 weeks. Did I mention he was playing the Titans? Ridiculous. This can't be just me. I may just have to pick up Matt Cassel.

Those guys are good. Or maybe I just suck.

Struggling against Ohio, OSU will not beat USC

We have seen Ohio State choke before and that is what they almost did today. With their best chance of winning the national title in years the Buckeyes almost blew their chances today against the Ohio Bobcats. OSU was losing in the 4th quarter but they rallied back to win. If they can barely win against Ohio how are they going to beat the almighty USC? Let us all hope that USC beats OSU badly so we have no chance of OSU embarrassing themselves again in the title game.

Is this high jumper drunk?

Ivan Ukhov is accused of drinking vodka at a meet. He failed to clear the bar on all of his attempts. What do you think?

Maybe he just sucks.

Worst...Logo...Ever...

OK so the OKC team name is the Thunder. Not much of a shocker. What is a shocker, kind of, is this logo (I say kind of because a blogger found a leak of it). What is that? It took the geniuses two months to make this. With two months to come up with an original logo, they give us this. This is the most generic WNBAish logo an NBA team has ever had.
This is just terrible and I hope they change it pronto.

Still confused about the closing ceremony

I really can't believed that I managed to watch the whole thing. Almost everything about it was horrible. From the costumes,to the Dr. Suess like instruments,to the stupid tower.It was all just way too much!
The only cool thing about it was the bike that was one big wheel.

10 worst MLB deadline trades ever

With the MLB trade deadline looming and already one seemingly bad trade so far (Teixeira for Kotchman), let's take a look back at the worst deadline deals ever.

10. Yankees trade Jay Buhner to the Mariners for Ken Phelps-1988 Buhner hit 307 homers and had 951 RBIs over his 14 years with the Mariners. Phelps hit .224 for the rest of the year and was traded the following year.

9. Astros trade Freddie Garcia, Carlos Guillen and John Halama to the Mariners for Randy Johnson-1998 Johnson's stay in Houston was short lived while the Mariners got 2 great players.

8. Blue Jays trade David Cone to the Yankees for Marty Janzsen, Jason Jarvis and Mike Gordon-1995
Cone helped the Yankees win a couple of rings while none of the players that the Blue Jays acquired played in the majors.

7. The Mets trade Scott Kazmir and Jose Diaz to the Rays for Victor Zambrano and Bartolome Fortunato- 2004 Victor Zambrano was (out of the league now) terrible for the Mets while Kazmir is a stud for the Rays. The only thing that is preventing this from going to the top is the fact that Kazmir's career is still young.

6. Mariners trade Derek Lowe and Jason Varitek to Red Sox for Heathcliff Slocumb- 1997
Lowe had two tremendous seasons in 2002 (21-8), and 2003 (17-7), while Varitek is the captain for the Red Sox. Slocumb had two seasons with Seattle with an ERA at about 5 and a record of 2-9.
5. Tigers trade John Smoltz to the Braves for Doyle Alexander- 1987
Alexander, while decent, only lasted two more seasons. We all know what Smoltz has done with the Braves since.

4. Red Sox trade Jeff Bagwell to the Astros for Larry Andersen- 1990
Boston got a 37 year old dud while Houston got a future HOFer.

3. A's send Mark McGwire to Cardinals for pitchers T.J. Mathews, Eric Ludwick and Blake Stein (July 31, 1997)
St. Louis got 220 homers while the A's got 3 mediocre at best pitchers that only lasted the A's about a season each.

2. Cubs trade Lou Brock to the Cards for Ernie Broglio (June 15, 1964)
The Cubs traded away 24 year old Lou Brock, a Hall of Famer for a pitcher that went 7-19 in two seasons with the Cubs.

1. The Expos trade Grady Sizemore, Cliff Lee, Brandon Phillips, and Lee Stevens to the Indians for Bartolo Colon and Tim Drew- 2002 For two months of Colon's service the Expos gifted the Indians 1. 25 year old, 3 time all-star, gold glove outfielder 2. all-star and feasible Cy Young winner 3. great second basman that is now with the Reds Did I mention that the Expos didn't even finish close to making the playoffs that year?

Gotsta Hate It: Darkmane

If you have watch ESPN once over the past two weeks, there is no doubt that you have seen this terrible excuse for a commercial. For those of you that somehow haven't seen it, it is a commercial for the X-Games. First of all, I have no idea how they came up with this maniac. Two, why should this make me want to watch the X-games? It really makes me want to watch it less (as if I was going to watch it anyway).

That is not a commercial! If I see one of these idiotic commercials one more time, i am going to do to my T.V. what he did to this vase.

Here are the rest of the stupid Darkmane commercials:

With championship on line, Lakers play like HS team

It was July 31st, 2007 when the whole world saw a much brighter future for the Celtics. GM Danny Ainge made two earth shaking trades. He received Ray Allen from Seattle and Kevin Garnett from Minnesota. Both were aging veterans who both were tired of their losing careers and neither had won a title. Paul Pierce, who dodged trade rumors in Boston, was paired with KG and Allen and were quickly dubbed the "Big 3". Ainge was not done changing the team though. James Posey, P.J. Brown, Sam Cassel would all arrive in Boston as well. With only 24 wins in the 06-07 season many people in Boston were calling for coach Doc Rivers to be fired. The season started with many critics questioning how PG Rajon Rondo and Kendrick Perkins would keep up with the ability of the other three starters. At season's end both had bloomed into treats and not just the other two guys in the starting line-up. The Celtics made a record breaking turnaround and finished with 66 wins.

The 6th game of the Finals started with Boston leading 3-2 over LA. It ended with the Celtics as the champions. Ray Allen finished with 20 3's total in the Finals which broke a record. he also finished with 7 3's in Game 6 which tied the record of 3's in a Finals game. The Celtics as a team finished with 18 steals which broke a record for steals in a Finals game. The final score was Celtics 131- Lakers 92. No that's not a typo, the Celtics beat the Lakers by 39 points. 39! That margin of victory was only 2 points short of the record 42 points that the Bulls beat the Jazz by in a 1998 Finals game. Obviously, this game was not even close. With 4:55 left in the game the crowd was already singing Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Goodbye!

In Phil Jackson's press conference his voice was nearly nullified by the noise of the fans that were still celebrating in stands. That sums up the series. The Lakers were over-powered by the Celtics. In all of Game 6, the Lakers grabbed only 2 offensive rebounds. No, that's not a typo either. They were terrible on defense also. Glen "Big Baby" Davis,
was past the ball at half court and "flew" by all of the Lakers and proceeded to jam it on some dude's dome. A man that big should not be able to breeze past all of the defenders like he did (289 lbs.). All in all, the Lakers did not deserve to be on the court.
