Russian Star Anna Kournikova Says May Return to Tennis

Like she was really a big threat in the first place hahaha. She has a hell of a lot of work to do if she thinks that's a good idea to come back. She's better at standing there and looking pretty than she is at playing tennis. But then again I might be jealous hahahaha. No.

JULIO FRANCO 2 year contract with Mets for 2 million plus

Okay. If you were 47 and you were able to sign a 2 year 2.2 million contract, you would. You know it. He's a contender still. Forget age. It's performance. There are guys out there who are in their mid 20's who will never be the play he is/was. I think it's great. Leave the guy alone.

Board shortage

Can't we all just get along? I don't remember polluting the ocean with my foam during my surf sessions. But there always has to be someone to blame, right? All I have to say is if the world doesn't come together and make the effort to improve the environment and stop being lazy (take your crap to the recycle centers and stop littering and dumping) then it doesn't matter who anyone attacks....it's all going to sh*t anyway. Our planet isn't in that great of shape and it's getting worse very quickly. Sad. We're trashing our means of life. Sorry, I'll go back to hugging my tree now.

Michael Irvin Arrested

All I know is that everytime I said "oh it's my friend's" I was lieing. Oh well. We should all mind our own business anyway. I'm getting really bored talking about people I don't know. But the cheerleaders were fun.

Urbina throwing heaters in the off season?

This story is a little F-ed up. He has an evil eye...look at him...he's just the kinda guy who would think "man I'd love to take a machete and gasoline to that guy!". If he wasn't involved with this thing someone has ito ut for him. Either way....I'd stay far away from this guy and make sure I don't piss him off...Mr. Blonde indeed.

Panthers Cheerleaders Arrested after Sex at Bar.

I was just hoping the story would be a little juicier. Hahaha. Way to go, girls! Hahahaha! Couldn't wait to get home, eh? A bar bathroom is not a clean place...not even the sink. To each their own.

EARNHARDT INTO THE INTERNATIONAL MOTORSPORTS HALL OF FAME

I really don't get the whole Nascar thing....very boring to me....a bit pointless. But my dad and the rest of my friends and family back in Texas love it. I guess it's the equivelant of my hero, Julie Foudy. Quite the icon of his sport, that Dale. I say it's a great thing. If the loss of someone means that perfect strangers cry and make their own memorials in their home towns in their honor, they deserve at least that. He was a great. Induct away!

CFL player arrested for sexual assault, also HIV positive

Ummm.....haven't they charged people with attempted murder or manslaughter or something for just having sex with people and not telling them they are HIV positive? I'm not saying lets put sign on all HIV positive people saying they are, but at least tell someone the kind of risk they are taking by being with them.....but take sexual assault and that's cruel. Women flock to professional athletes to give them a one nighter just to say they did. How many has he possibly infected? I think it's just wrong.

No Adidas.

I seriously doubt the Adidas shoes caused the injury. I wore Adidas all through my soccer career (don't know why I would call it a career....but I don't know of another word) and got hurt plenty of times. But my injuries were due to weak ankles, lack of strength training that's essential to injury prevention, mage-bitches who are just mean, and my, at times, kamikaze style of playing. I think if you're going to get hurt, you're going to get hurt no matter what shoes you wear. My brother tore is ACL when he was freaken barefoot! He needs to grow up and wear the damn shoes....freaken baby. It's a contract so he's screwing himself because he's not going to make a difference. Oh well. Neither is this blog.

R&A votes to allow women at British Open

Seriously....I'm (obviously) a female....If something is a "men's sports event" then what the heck are you doing trying to get in?!?! I really have a problem with the feminists who try and throw women in everything!!! Have your women's British Open and make up some tournament where women can play against men for a special award?! Seriously. The chick who made such a big deal about getting into West Point went through all that s**t to just to be there, then she freaken quit!!!! What the hell?! If you're going to be a woman, be a real woman and show everyone you can hang! Most women are not as athletic and don't have the same potential as men. Sad to say....but it's the truth. I could go on for days about this stuff! I doubt a woman will win....maybe close....but not for a while. The ladies gotta get used to playing with men and step it up a bit. But, in reality...golf isn't the most physically demanding sport. So if they got the big swing have at it. It's changed. So why am I still typing???

Atlanta Hawks' Jason Collier Dies

I feel like it wouldn't hurt to have those tests instituted. Some problems and deaths could be avoided. You never know when something like this will happen...to anyone. Doesn't matter how tall you are (of course being that height increases your risk substantially) you just never know. Everyone should make an effort to get regular physicals and health screenings. All that being said, you could still die in your sleep from some freak problem that couldn't have been detected or prevented. If it's in the cards...it's in the cards. A story like this just makes you hurt for the family. **All the best to them getting through this**

Coach resigns after high school bans pregame prayer

"But then I would be wrong, as are you. Believe what you want to, but keep it to yourself. My relationship to God is my business, yours is yours, and I'd like to keep it that way." ~~The Black Hand Right on. And way to go with the list of Crusades.

Coach resigns after high school bans pregame prayer

Religion always makes for a nice and long blog. I think the situation couldn't have been handled better. Everyone did what they felt was in their best interests for their beliefs and honored the Constitution. That's the way it should be. He could have rallied all his church buddies and protested and made a big deal about it (even though he knows what the constitution says). I'm from a small town in Texas and stuff like this can and will get ugly in the wrong places with the wrong people. The coach seems like a good guy who stands up for what he believes in. I think they all deserve a round of applause. This country was founded on religious freedom and freedom of speech. They wanted to think and say what they wanted without paying for it. We still have a lovely luxury here in America. I wish everyone could see things the way my friends and I see it. There is no way everyone will think and believe in the same things, but understand that and eccept it. Find the beauty in diversity. Religion is essentially an idea (granted a very strong one that causes war and death by the thousands and greater). Stick to your guns and get on with your lives. Stop trying to stop all things you disagree with. Because chances are most people disagree with you anyway.

"I'm thinking about [riding the Tour de France next year]"

I say "F" the Frenchies. Who cares if he wants to ride again? People change their minds all the time. If you were doing something that you loved, were fantastic at, thought you wanted to retire, then realized you miss it and aren't quite ready to quit...then go back. People feel burned out ready to stop and then later realize they were wrong. "People are people so why should it be that you and I should get along so awfully?" ~Tears for Fears Good song....I don't care if it doesn't really pertain to this...GO LANCE! GO AMERICA!

You're not wearing that shirt in this house!

"For the life of me I can't see why any of this matters. I mean, who really cares if people want to wear witless shirts. It's a ball game." ~WeedyMcSmokey Right on. Who cares what anyone wears? It's not destructive or harmful in anyway...this is America, after all. The whole freedom of speech thing is legal, you know. But that still doesn't matter in this world because if anyone doesn't agree with you they complain and make a law against it anyway. Yeah. If people can stand on any street corner and hold up giant pictures of dead babies in protest of abortion, then why is anyone upset about a damn t-shirt that says something sucks?

Dwight Gooden is wanted by the police!

It would have been funny if he had told them why he wouldn't get out of the car...."Officer, I can't get out of the car because I'm way to drunk to stand up right now!" Hahaha.

blah blah blah. He's just another person who's too stupid to realize that once a cop is even trying to pull you over you might as well just do it because you are doubling and tripling the amount of trouble you're getting into. To all who run....why the heck would you make your situation worse? You won't get away. It ain't the old west, Fellers. We got them flyin' motor cars now. HHwweeeeee doggies!

Outfielders Collide Diving for Catch

I just say they should be glad there are no "...will never play baseball again"'s if you know what I mean. That's a lot of athleticism crashing together. Full on. Freaken wow. I can't believe that hit though. Two cracked beans (yes I call a head a bean). Yikes.

Who's Your Daddy ?

Poor girl.....one of my girlfriends is 6'2 and she has a hard time meeting guys. She could really develope though. Her height alone is a freakish advantage over all other players. She's freaken tall for a man!!! Forget comparing her to women! If she can add good, efficient movement she'd be like a T-rex. "RAAAAAHHH!!!! GET OUTTA MY HOOOUUUUUUUUSSSSE!!!!!"

Baseball has another Lowe-down cheater

I'm not sure why people should be "worried" about other people's marriages. It should have absolutely no effect on your life (unless, you know, you're "the other person" in the situation). Trying to impose a personal moral system upon other people is probably one of the most arrogant things a person can do. Thank you. The media is one-sided and is looking for the good store...never know what's the real truth unless it's your own story. So let them deal with it and get on with their lives. Besides, I thought that was a major principal this country was founded in the first place. So we could all live our lives as well please and not get blasted for it. Who cares what they did. Worry about you. This may be a little off subject, but everyone should stop trying to be so PC and stop worrying about who you offend too. No matter what happens or what you do someone will always be offended. We're all different....so deal with it.

Prosecute the mother F-er. Kick him out. Any athlete being paid to play ANY SPORT should lose their career for steroids. Make an example of him. He's a liar and he uses a drug that gives an unfair advantage over all the players out there working their butts off to stay in the game....or even get in. F him. But we all know they'll slap his hand and give him a "Now you can't do this again, young man. That's a no no." Freaken politics. Roidfeal Palmeiro must be PUNISHED!
