Doc Gooden Chooses Jail Over Rehab Prosecutor Pam Bondi said Gooden chose the minimum one-year-and-one-day prison sentence instead because the judge said Gooden would receive a five-year sentence if he accepted the rehabilitation term and then slipped back into drug use. Sounds like he doesn't think he can quit. That's really sad.

that's one hell of a recipe....I t is partial stupidity, but to make bad choice after bad choice, it makes it easier for the odds to stack against you... I think it started as a bad habit, but this is more than that...unless the coke amazingly flew up his nose by itself it is hardly bad luck though

It's like Brad and Jen all over again... Each generation has its cultural touchstones, those moments when everyone remembers where they were, at that specific moment, from that second until the day that they die. Late at night, at a dinner party or social function, someone will mention the event, and the party will hush, and recollections will be shared with whispers, as quiet as possible, so as not to upset the delicate nature of such sacred memories. This is one of those moments: According to her publicist, Anna Benson has filed for divorce from her husband, Baltimore Orioles pitcher Kris Benson. She says the marriage is "irrevocably broken." You were there. Let's all share this moment. Let us never forget. Only with time will these wounds heal.

Redick tops Morrison for AP player of year J.J. Redick, whose 3-point shooting led Duke to a No. 1 ranking for most of the season, was selected the national player of the year by The Associated Press on Friday.

I'll Take Seattle Slew to Win, Place and Show, Please A Texas company backed by an Arizona billionaire is producing clones of champion cutting horses. Though most horse associations won't register clones as purebred, one European jumping horse group accepts clones and as many as 30 may be born this year.

Mybe the cloned horses should have their own races....i have also heard about dolly the sheep and various liver problems attached to the cloning.... I also wonder about the value of actually breeding horses from champion stock as a action/reaction...it all just seems bad for business, next we'll have george steinbrenner cloning horses to have sponsers in their manes.
Taste the Excitement. NASCAR Meats: "You'll cheer the premium flavor of NASCAR Officially Licensed hot dogs ... delicious bacon, deli-thin sandwich meat, and smoked sausages." Is this real?

No, honestly the reason boxing is struggling is because the fighters can't read or write and neither do the fans.... Hopkins-criminal, along with 80 more percent of the boxing population....there are as many divisions as there are professional baseball teams. Don King is still thriving...and not in jail. I used to really love to watch boxing, when tyson was 19(criminal) or better yet, pop in an old sugar ray robinson fight...boxing will never be that way again, even if james 'lights out, on social security" toney doesn't lose for another 20 years and fights george foreman for the world's wrinkliest fighter award.
Some holds barred A little levity for this Friday afternoon.

I think it should also be a tie....joakim noah or any of the guys from george mason should get it if it was narrowed down to tournament records...but the ap awards are given on an entire season....even if redick proved himself ineffective against LSU, and morrison did much better in his last game. If an argument holds, my indiana hoosiers had morrison on lockdown for the entire game(sadly he was the only one) Honestly though, if i had a vote, as much as i despise the very existence of Duke, my vote for the year goes to Shelden Williams, who was truly the heart and soul of that team.
NFL Curtails End Zone Celebrations NFL owners voted 29-3 Wednesday to limit end zone demonstrations, including those using props such as Johnson's pylon putt or Terrell Owens' Sharpie signing; or another Owens specialty, sit-ups after a score.

I agree with chemwizBsquared on the DOC's...I think that he's also right with the challenges, it makes the coaches more tactical during the game, and can definitely alter the course of any game with a well played challenge...I would like the officials to rediscuss the "no challenges under 2 minute rule" The CFL is a league where the endzone celebrations are choreographed but i think if the CFL was more commercialized(as the NFL is) than we might be having the same thread discussion right now about CFL endzone celebrations...but you are right , the prima donnas are mainly in the NFL, but NFL is not alone... With as much other stuff that is going on in other sports, the fact that endzone celebrations are the biggest deterrent is pretty impressive
'Love child', mother lambaste Big Unit Johnson is suing former girlfriend Laurel Roszell for $97,000 for child-care payments he made for Heather, a 16-year-old child he fathered but kept secret, the New York Daily News and New York Post reported Tuesday. Heather, the 16-year-old "love child" of New York Yankees pitcher Randy Johnson said her star father coldly responded to letters she sent to him and that she cannot bear to watch him pitch on TV anymore, the New York Post reported Wednesday. Laurel said Johnson balked last year after she asked the 3-time Cy Young Award winner to buy a truck and computer for Heather and pay for her community college classes, the Daily News said.

Hal, thank you for pointing all of that out...in reference(according to the fact checker) Randy Johnson was a pitcher for the montreal expos, but he only pitched about 10-15 games for them and only made the league minumum..... The rest of the time he was a pitcher in the minor leagues, where the cash flow is considerably lower
How can you guys mention those songs and not think about Lola?
