Have you seen some of the Onion Sports Network clips floating around YouTube and other video outlets? They are absolutely hilarious. For those of you unfamiliar, The Onion delivers the snarky, false side of news and does it in a way that makes you go “waa?” and then “hahaha.” They have a series of video clips that deal with sports stories, like this one: In a press release, Comedy Central announced that it has worked out a deal for The Onion to do a scripted comedy series that will “take on the whole universe of modern sports — teams, players, leagues, sycophantic fans, ridiculous products and over-hyped sports coverage.” Should be a gem, and I’m sure you all will find humor in it. And doesn’t... [Read more]

After the Yankees won the World Series, Alex Rodriguez partied it up with his girlfriend Kate Hudson and some of his teammates, including Derek Jeter. They all went to 1OAK and partied until late into the night. People says A-Rod even got up and showed off his singing ability, warbling “We Are the Champions.” (Wouldn’t you have loved to have seen that?) Also at the party was Kate Hudson’s stepfather Kurt Russell. People there said Kate and A-Rod were “affectionate with each other,” and after Kate left Kurt Russell stayed behind and bonded.

I have a theory that involves ex’s. Namely? They should be quiet. Once they break up with you, they should never be allowed to talk to (or about) you again. But that’s just me. One way this theory would work out well is with famous people. An ex of someone famous always seems to blab about things that the other person just doesn’t want people to know. Case in point? Khloe Kardashian and her ex NBA basketball boyfriend Rashad McCants. In an episode of Khloe’s reality show “Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami,” the Kardashian sisters are seen hacking into McCants’ voicemail and listening to a message supposedly sent by a female fan. McCants says this was totally staged and never happened. They alude... [Read more]

It’s funny the plethora of things that get reported on about Brett Favre. The latest is from TwinCities.com who says that Favre is “so focused on winning games this season that the Vikings QB has respectfully declined guest appearances on the Jay Leno and David Letterman TV shows.” Shrug. Didn’t he always do this? I don’t remember him making the late night appearances when he played with the Packers during the regular season ever. I did see him once in a while on the boob tube in the off-season, like this particular appearance after his very first retirement. I remember watching that appearance and saying to my husband, “I think he’s coming back.” Oh the memories! All in all, if Favre really... [Read more]

There’s a lot of division amongst Packer fans right now, and it’s all thanks to the poor way Brett Favre’s retirement was handled from Packer management and the man himself. As soon as there was a rumor Favre might play for the Vikings, I circled the date the Packers would play the Vikings in Lambeau on the calendar. I knew it was going to be a big one. The Packers, in the three weeks leading up to this match up played the Lions and Browns and got themselves feeling very confident. Overconfident. So it was a definite reality check to see the Vikings, a solid and mature football team, come in and trounce our behinds up and down our (home) field. Here are a few thoughts from one Packer fan: Booing is a Classless Act Sorry,... [Read more]
