Take(s):

Most Predictable Brawl Ever

Reds- Cards, most predictable brawl ever. I mean, there was no way they weren’t going to riot after Red Brandon Phillips threw the first punch; “I’d play against these guys with one leg. We have to beat these guys. I hate the Cardinals. All they do is bitch and moan about everything, all of them. They’re little (bitches). All of ‘em. I really hate the Cardinals. Compared to the Cardinals, I love the Chicago Cubs. Let me make this clear; I hate the Cardinals.” And let me make this clear; that’s awesome. And it’s pretty much a reason to go.

There are certain things we all agree are a reason to go; being physically threatened, having someone (insult your race, religion, or lady) someone spitting in your face. And an MLB’er saying he hates the entire other team and they are all a bunch of (bitches). It wasn’t a question of if, it... More »

Save Yourself

What are the chances these two are still together? Check out this Cat’s act; Houston third baseman Chris Johnson hits a rope down the line. Normally Gus will risk everything to catch a foul ball. Not this Dude in the red shirt; he’s all about saving himself and scatters. Not only did he abandon this fight, but he actually went Matador on his own lady, screening her, and getting her dotted in the process! Dude! All any of our ladies want is to know we will protect them, no matter what. And you just pushed her right in front of an oncoming car. Just told a mugger, here, take my girl! Even worse, she called it before it happened: “As soon as we got here and I saw where we were sitting, I said,’baby, we’re going to get hit. He said, ‘No, I’ll catch it if you do. We just had this conversation and sure enough, the ball comes at me. He just bailed.” Which is something I’m sure she’ll do if she hasn’t already.

Dude’s excuse? He lost it in the lights.... More »

LeBron Tweets On Haters

How about that tweet thumbed out by LeBron James; “Don’t think for a minute that I haven’t been keeping mental notes of everyone taking shots at me this summer. And I mean everyone.” That’s actually the first sign of the kill or be killed vibe that have fueled all the great ones. A big change from the guy who normally is just clowning on the bench, doing photo shoots and in game skits with his teammates. Sounds like he’s developing an assassin gene.

Then again, where was that fire when everyone was killing him for laying down in Game 5 against Boston? That was the time he should have been taking notes. Maybe then, Boston wouldn’t have hammered and closed them out in their house in Game 6. And its’ a whole lot easier to take notes when you’ve got two All Stars to run with; he’s not making a statement like that if he’s still back in... More »
