Chad Johnson Gets New Ink

Chad Johnson is never dull and even in the offseason he makes sure he is not forgotten by the public. Ocho Cinco decided to get himself a couple of new tattoos and to follow in the steps of Mike Tyson he tatted his face. Now it isn’t quite as drastic as “Iron Mike”, but they are on his face nonetheless. Johnson must really like his home state of Florida to have it permanently inked on his face! I have no idea what the next antic for Ocho Cinco will be, but I can assure you it will be something that gets people talking.

Hank Baskett to be a Dad

Kendra Wilkinson the soon to be wife of Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hank Baskett has announced she is pregnant. Wilkinson is a former girlfriend of Hugh Hefner and her and Baskett are set to be married at the Playboy mansion on June 27th. These days Wilkinson is a reality TV star appearing in the show The Girls Next Door and now in her own reality show Kendra which premiered this past Sunday and had record breaking numbers for the newtork E! I can only guess the huge numbers for the sure were in direct correlation with Baskett being on the show because let’s not forget he caught over 400 yards in passes this past season along with 3 touchdowns.

Keith Eloi Might Have The Sickest Hops Ever

Keith Eloi is a recent graduate of the University of Nebraska at Oklahoma where he played wide receiver for the football team in ’07 and ’08. Eloi is 5’10 and can run a 4.3 forty-yard dash and has a vertical of 41-inches, but went undrafted in the 2009 NFL Draft. Eloi is currently trying to make the Redskins roster and if he really wants to get the coaches attention he might want to show them this video. Eloi literally jumps flat-footed with flip-flops on into a very large Ford F150 pick-up trunk bed. I still can’t get my mouth off the floor after watching this video.

More Sunday Night Football Shakeup

A couple of months ago John Madden announced he was retiring from Sunday Night Football and NBC quickly announced Cris Collinsworth as his predecessor. The loss of all-time great Madden isn’t the only change NBC dealt with this season because earlier this week they announced Jerome “The Bus” Bettis wouldn’t be back this coming season. Bettis won’t be replaced by just one person though after the announcement came that Tony Dungy and recently retired Rodney Harrison will now be part of of the team. Did they really need to add another person in the studio that is already filled with Bob Costas, Keith Olbermann, Dan Patrick, Tiki Barber and Peter King? If NBC keeps this up they will exceed the salary cap of a regular NFL team.

Tony Romo Is Loved

The National Enquirer is reporting Jessica Simpson recently gave boyfriend Tony Romo a $100,000 speedboat for his birthday! Call me stupid, but where in the blue hell is Jessica getting $100,000 to drop on such a luxurious gift? Well, Jessica was able to scrounge up the cheddar somehow and Romo was quite pleased with the custom-made piece of machinery. I wonder if Romo now feels obligated to return the favor and propose to Jessica?

Shockey Parties Like a Rock Star

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.

SportsUnderground Hat Tip of the Week

SportsUnderground would like to extend a hat tip to Charles Robinson from Yahoo Sports! on this excellent article:

Social Networking A Potential Trap For Prospects.

SportsUnderground’s Opinion:
We had no idea NFL teams went to these measures to insure they weren’t drafting someone they would regret, but in all reality it makes complete sense. Facebook, MySpace and other internet portals are definitely tools to learn more about someone. If you are about to spend millions of dollars on someone I guess you will pull every trick in the book in order to not flush those millions down the toilet in a few years.

Bungles at it again

We have been banging on the Cincinnati Bengals for the last two years or so due to all the arrests and problems they have experienced off the field. The Bungles have made many statements reccently about how they are cleaning up their act, but how are we supposed to believe that with their most recent signing? Keep in mind they still have Chris “The consistent convict” Henry on their squad and now they sign Tank “I got guns” Johnson. It is comical to me how poorly run this team is so if you want to hire Tank after a run of 10 arrests in a 14 month period then so be it. I just hope you don’t expect anyone to take you seriously and better yet just know you are fighting with the Lions and the Raiders for the a$$ end of the NFL.

Michael Vick in the Mafia?

Michael Vick’s lawyer Michael Blumenthal told a bankruptcy court today that Vick has lined up a construction job for when he gets out of the pen. Who in the heck set up this gig Mr. Blumenthal Tony Soprano? I mean do you think we really believe for one split second that “Ron Mexico” is going to be laying bricks or painting walls? Blumenthal said when Vick is released, he plans to work forty hours a week for a construction company. He did not disclose the wage or give any other details about the type of work that Vick will be performing. Vick is actually set to take the stand tomorrow before the proceedings wrap up. He’s scheduled to be released from custody in July, but could be sent to home confinement as early as late May. I do want to commend Vick for serving his time and paying his debt to society, but please don’t try and BS me or anyone else that you are going to be working construction to pay back your losses. Tony Soprano doesn’t want you and the bigger question will be does the NFL and Roger Goodell?

Football or Futbol?

C’mon.. WTF is going on with America’s game?

With the new rule change to again protect the QB the defense is going to have to become more passive when going after the passer.

Due to what happened to Tom Brady last year when Brady suffered a torn ACL in his left knee on a low hit by Bernard Pollard with 7:27 left in the first quarter of the first game of the season. All Pollard did was rush the QB, get blocked and just like he has been taught all his life was crab to the ball and make the tackle.

Now with new rule changes this same play would probably be a TD as the defensive player will have to get up while being held and hit the QB around the waste.. all this within 5 seconds from the time of snap.

Without this injury would anyone know who Matt Cassel is? would he be now making over $14mill? No.. but thats football..

Whats next? having those soccer slideline guys run out with those mini stretchers?
