I know kids are starting younger and younger these days with honing their skills in sports, but this might be a little much. I have even heard of parents buying sperm from donor athletes so they can have the perfect specimen, but I don’t think most parents would be inteterested in acquiring a pool player’s sperm since most pool sharks aren’t the most healthy specimens around. Check out the video of a 23-month old hustla in the making showing off his uncanny pool skills.

The series is all knotted at up at 2-2 and tonight we are back in LA. The Lakers are 19-0 all-time in Game 5 of a 2-2 series so for that stat alone I’m taking them. I do also think the Lakers will actually hit the boards tonight and the home crowd should push them over the edge. Take the Lakers tonight!
LA Lakers -5.5
Overall Record:
NBA 41-34
MLB 26-18-1
NHL 0-1

Mr. T Sings Take Me Out To The Ball Game
May 26, 2009 by
Recently we provided video of Denise Richards trying to sing Take Me Out To The Ball Game during the seventh-inning stretch staple offered at Wrigley Field. Well, last night Mr. T had the honor or throwing out the first pitch and also getting a shot to sing the Wrigley Field classic and it was as brutal as you would imagine. I do have to admit that when Mr. T stated, “I pity the Pirates Grrr,” I was amused.
One other quick point. I know the recession has been hard on all of us, but you know it is bad when Mr. T has to drop his gold. 😉

In my eyes if the Cavs don’t pull out game 4 tonight in Orlando then you can chalk this series up. In the last game all the Cavaliers stood around and watched Lebron play basketball which was the biggest mistake they could make. The Cavs do have talent and must come into tonight’s game with a gameplan to get others involved early in the game. I think Mike Brown addresses this issue and the Cavs cover.
Cavaliers +1

Shockey Parties Like a Rock Star
May 24, 2009 by
New Orleans tight end Jeremy Shockey was rushed to a hospital today in Vegas, but the word on the streets is that Shockey is going to be fine. Shockey was found unconscious at around 2 p.m. at the Hard Rock Hotel and taken to a nearby hospital. Shockey was partying at the standard Sunday pool party called Rehab and the Hard Rock Hotel when he became unconscious due to “dehydration.” By the sounds of this story it sounds like Shockey might want to attend alcohol rehab before football season comes back around.
Happy Memorial Day

The unofficial beginning of summer has arrived and that means barbeques, trips to the beach, nights on the deck and all the other fun things we like to do during the warm months. Please take a few minutes to give thanks to all of the past and present people who have served in the armed forces. Thank you for keeping our country safe.

The Nuggets for all intent and purpose controlled Game 1 in LA , but let things slip away at the very end. I’m taking the Nuggets tonight because I think it will either be very close again or they will steal one from the Lakers tonight on the road.
Nuggets +5.5

Briny Baird Cares
May 20, 2009 by
P.F Changs had a very interesting promotion for the San Diego Navy/Marine Corps Relief Society yesterday across from Petco Park where the San Diego Padres play baseball. Briny had 10 shots to hit the center of the bullseye in Petco Park from the top of a building across the street and he would win everyone in America a free lettuce wrap. The lettuce wrap is cool, but more importantly the promotion generated $25,000 for the charity so all in all it was a job well done for Briny Baird.

Blake Griffin Is Screwed
May 20, 2009 by
Last night the Los Angeles Clippers won the 2009 NBA Draft Lottery which means another poor soul will get lost in the abyss that is the LA Clippers. Does anyone remember Michael Olowakandi as the number one pick in 1998? How about some of their other first-round picks which include Darius Miles, Melvin Ely, Brian Skinner, Maurice Taylor, Lorenzen Wright, Greg Minor, Terry Dehere, Randy Woods, Elmore Spencer and Loy Vaught. YUCK!!! The Clippers are playing it cool stating they will explore all options which could mean they will draft someone random like Tyler Hansbrough with the first pick, but all signs point to Blake Griffin.
Sorry Blake…Sorry!
