      Not that anyone cares, but…

      July 9, 2007 /

      For the sake of being over the top, I’m going to give an in-depth analysis of tonight’s, thrilling/riveting home run derby. Here’s the field:

      National League:
      Ryan Howard (Phillies), Prince Fielder (Brewers), Albert Pujols (Cardinals), (Matt Holiday (Rockies).

      American League:
      Justin Morneau (Twins), Alex Rios (Blue Jays), Vladimir Guerrero (Angels)
      Magglio Ordonez (Tigers).

      First, cross off Fielder because he’s so young – he’s not going to be able to handle the pressure that the derby brings. Secondly, cross off all right handed batters because the left field porch at AT&T is ridiculously short. As long as they can pull the ball and keep it out of “triples alley”, left-handers have the edge. So that leaves Ryan Howard and Justin Morneau in the finals and just for the sake of not going with the defending champ, I’ll go with Morneau to win it all.

      Update: As usual, the guy/team I picked didn’t even make a dent in the game…well done Justin – you freaking bum! Congrats to Vlad Guerrero for winning such a distinct honor as the home run derby!

      Somebody get Urlacher a grammar book

      July 9, 2007 /

      Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher is in a nasty war of words with his ex-girlfriend, Tyna Robertson, over visitation rights of their 14-month year old son, Kennedy.

      In a recent Chicago Sun-Times article, the paper highlights several abusive text messages Urlacher sent Robertson from January of this year up until early June:

      “Go to hell you f—— —-.”
      “Grow the f— up and quit praying and get a job.”
      “You’re a f—— fruit cake.”
      “Your raising a little p—y.”

      Read between the lines and it’s pretty obvious that young Kennedy is caught between two adults arguing like they’re still in high school. Robertson has already lost a court battle while trying to suck money from “Lord of the Dance” star Michael Flatley and it appears she’s trying her luck again, while Urlacher is just interested in seeing how many words he can misspell and names he can call Tyna.

      Either way, how sad is it that our society has turned to text messaging to argue? The good old days of throwing stuff and slamming doors has been replaced with a text of: “Fyi: f— you.”
