This is not really sports related (though, in a way, the girls are promoting swimming), but I saw this over at The World of Isaac and had to post it here.
Is there a better way to celebrate our independence than to look a few models wearing American flag bikinis? Probably, but let’s take a minute and salute the flag.
THE COLLEGE FOOTBALL GUYS took every program in the Big 12 and compared them to hot celebrities.
Nebraska – Cindy Crawford. At one time the “super” standard by which others followed, however with time became old and outdated as others “passed” on by. Distinctive features that cannot be removed – a mole and Tom Osbourne. Maybe their school became a Coke campus…
Oklahoma – Pamela Anderson. Big, brash and performance enhanced under Switzer. Spent time with lesser suitors. Got back up with a surprising year, but still can’t break back through with a big time win. Embarrassing “incidents” cost them money and respect.
Oklahoma State – Anna Nichole Smith. Married to famous oil billionaire. Famous outbursts, one in reality and one on reality TV. One hopes their future plays out a little differently.
Texas – Jenny McCarthy. America’s favorite girl. Well dressed. Larger than life. Many consider them annoying. Made it big when “matched” with the right show/QB. Steady performer. Enjoys yearly shootout with similar looking rival.
That Nebraska-Cindy Crawford comparison is fantastic.
Thought the Brian McNamee-Roger Clemens circus was over? Not a chance.
Tests of syringes and other steroid paraphernalia that trainer Brian McNamee submitted to federal agents will test positive for Roger Clemens’ DNA, according to a brief filed in court by McNamee’s lawyers, ESPN reported.
Although there has been considerable speculation about the materials McNamee submitted to federal agent Jeff Novitzky in January, his attorneys had refused to discuss them publicly until the filing of the brief.
The brief, in support of McNamee’s attempt to obtain an early dismissal of a defamation case Clemens filed against him or have the case moved to New York, was filed in court on Tuesday.
The paraphernalia, including syringes and bloodied gauze pads, “will test positive for Clemens’s DNA,” the brief asserts. “Once the DNA results are revealed, there will be little dispute about who is telling the truth.”
This back and forth crap has to end. Let’s all hope something comes out of these tests so one of these guys can be called out for being the lying scumbag he is. (Let’s be honest though – they’re both lying scumbags no matter what the tests reveal.)
FOX SPORTS.com’s Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Brewers are offering Matt LaPorta in a proposed deal for Indians’ ace C.C. Sabathia.
Class AA shortstop Alcides Escobar also may be in the Brewers’ proposed deal, one of the sources says.
And the Indians scouted the Brewers’ Class A Brevard County (Fla.) affiliate on Wednesday night, looking at third baseman Taylor Green, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.The Brewers likely would prefer to substitute a lesser player for Escobar, or perhaps would insist upon additional talent if the Indians demanded his inclusion. But if the Brewers indeed were willing to give up both LaPorta and Escobar, the Sabathia sweepstakes might be over before they started.
“I can not imagine anyone would top that,” the first source said.
LaPorta, 23, and Escobar, 21, would be a steep price for Sabathia, who is headed for free agency at the end of the season. But the Brewers, facing a potentially dramatic off-season makeover, are in a more urgent position than other clubs, rival executives say.
Giving up two top prospects for free-agent-to-be Sabathia seems like a desperation move right now for the Brewers. Although if the club feels like they’re only one player away from a World Series, it’s hard not to make a big splash.
This seemingly would be a great deal for the Tribe if it went through. Sabathia is probably gone at the end of the year anyway, so why not land two top prospects in the process? Especially with the 2008 season already falling by the wayside for Cleveland.
I hesitate to even post this, because the “article” doesn’t cite any real source, but ProFootballTalk.com is “reporting” that Brett Favre’s agent Bus Cook is “privately” saying that Favre wants to play for the Carolina Panthers.
For his part, Favre tried to squash the rumors yesterday saying that there was nothing to the reports that he wanted to come back, but this is the internet age, so the rumors won’t die… especially if they’re true.
Only time will tell.
