UFC Fighter Knocked Out in Eight Seconds In a Colorado ring thronging with his fans last night, Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Houston Alexander was knocked out by James Irvin in eight seconds, the shortest bout in the sport's history. "Houston Alexander has been utterly exposed," Michael Rome declared on the blog Bloody Elbow. (See the video.)

I don't know about this sport yet. I've been a big fan of boxing all my life, but a sport that allows you to keep beating on your opponent when he's down? Reminds me of too many bouncers I've seen in action over the years. I am glad to see they've cleaned it up a bit though, when this sport first started it was sickening to watch more often than not.
Speaking of bouncers, a little remark about bouncers a comedian made who's name I can 't remember.
How to be a bouncer;
#1 be a dick
#2 stand by a door

Barry Bonds signs with Yankees!
The New York Yankees have pulled out all the stops to win this season and have signed Barry Bonds to act as their DH. This comes on the heels of Jason Giambi being diagnosed with another stomach tumour (his first one was in 2004). Bonds is expected to practice with their Florida State League team for a couple of weeks before being called up to the majors. The terms of his contract are currently unavailable.

As much as this is a joke, the sad truth is Bonds glove and arm at 1st would be an upgrade over Giambi.

Jose Canseco Has 'Stuff' on A-Rod Throughout this whole somewhat tainted steroids era, Alex Rodriguez's name has never really been slung through the mud. He obviously has a lot of home runs for his age, but he's never hit an exorbitant amount of them in one season. The general perception is A-Rod is just really, really good at what he does.

The guy gave up a home run that bounced off his head and out of the park. That's the last time Canseco has done anything that I've paid any attention to.

Stuggling Ottawa Senators fire head coach Paddock, Murray takes over "I would hope that they're embarrassed by the way they've played lately," said Murray.

I know this is a move that had to be made, my question is; how did there D get so bad?
I don't think this is the last move Murray will make either. I know the trade dead line is over, but there is obviously some chemistry problems in the dressing room. If Emery is causing problems, send him to the minors. Alfredsson not leading in the dressing room? Take the C away from him and give it to Spezza or Heatley. This group is way too talented to be playing like this.
Who would have thought at this time of year, the Canadians would be the cream of the crop of Canadian teams playing in the eastern division.

Keyshawn working out, mulls NFL return Keyshawn Johnson has the desire to strap on the pads, but does he have the moves?
posted to Football at 11:24 AM CDT
Boo Hoo, no one's paying any attention to me waaaaa!! Keyshawn, there's an old saying," As the man gets older, he ran faster as a boy" As a Jet fan, you were never as good as you thought you were, stay in the booth.
I also agree with BitterOldPunk, I'll take Keyshawn in the booth over Irvin any day. Can I get an interpreter here!!!

No Jokinen, Zednick's Throat Slashed During Hockey Game. Florida Panthers' forward Richard Zednik had his throat slashed by teammate Olli Jokinen's skate in Buffalo Sunday night while playing against the Sabres. Zednik is in stable condition following surgery to repair a "deep gash" in his neck, and the Panthers are flying his wife Jessica to Buffalo to be with him.

Two skates to the head in one week. Earlier this week, linesmen Pat Dapozzo got caught up in a pile and got kicked in the face breaking his nose and requiring 20 stitches. As if that wasn't bad enough, a fight broke out after that and DaPozzo tried to get in and break it up with his nose splattered. Looks like both those guys picked a bad week to quit sniffing glue.

BoKnows, I like your comment about wearing a turtle neck. Let's bring the Phil Esposito look back!

Pedro Martinez, Juan Marichal filmed at cock fight A video of Martinez and Marichal at a cockfight was posted this week on YouTube and it showed the two laughing before releasing the roosters. They took part as honourary "soltadores," the word used to describe the person who puts the animal to fight. The fight takes place in their home country, the Dominican Republic, where cockfighting is legal and popular. It is banned throughout the United States

The bottom line is this; It's great to be the dominant species.
I have no problem with Dominican's watching a cock fight, as long as they don't do it on my front lawn while they're cutting my grass!

Hmmmm, if I didn't know better, I'd think SOME of you(or most of you) are getting tanked up at the airport bar.

Pedro is going to enter Don Zimmer in a cock fight. Zimmers ring name will be The Droopy Rooster.

Adolf Hitler, Cowboys Fan Translated from the original German, this YouTube video poignantly captures how every NFL fan feels when your 13-3 team goes one-and-done in the playoffs after your quarterback spends his off week in Cabo with Jessica Simpson. Funny everywhere but Dallas.

This is even better than the skit Monty Python did in subtitles way back having Hitler tell the joke to thousands of troops, "I have a dog with no nose" one of his soldiers yells back "how does he smell" to which Hitler replies "terrible" Stupid joke, but very funny having Hitler tell it.

Taxpayers will fund Yankees' VIP parking Yet another perk, compliments of the richest team in sports and the taxpayers of New York.

I've been partners on Yankee tickets with a couple of guys for years now. 4 tickets 16 rows behind the dugout. They've just increased the price of tickets 100% for next year. 4 seats just for the regular season, $83,000! George Stienbrenner and the rest of the Yankee organization can kiss my ass!, which I'm sure is exactly what they want to hear.
The Yankees(as well as every other pro sports team) aren't interested in real fans, they want corporate assholes filling the stadium. Guys who wander in in the 3rd inning, and leave at the bottom of the 7th. The parking situation is just another example of how little respect professional sports franchises have for the average Joe. It's time congress forget about the steriod witch hunt and zero in on who they are really suppose to be protecting, real people who continue to be hurt by this kind of bullshit.

Bill Parcells signs a four year deal Bill Parcells signs a four year deal to become Miami's executive Vice President of football operations.How much of a lift does this give Miami going into this weeks game against the Pats?
posted to Football at 11:01 AM CDT
The reason the Jets won, Parcells, the reason the Giants won, Parcells, the reason the Cowboys are winning now, Parcells. You can make your Belichick arguments all you want, the bottom line is Parcells builds winners.

People making 30 to 40 grand a year fighting over primadonnas making millions a year, doesn't make much sense.
I guess the only good thing about ticket prices being so high, is that the average sports nut guy or girl that might do this kind of thing can't afford to go to the ballpark anymore. Unfortunately, they can still afford to go to the bar.
