What happened to Jessica Simpson? That’s what all her fans are asking after seeing recent pictures. Apparently Jessica has packed on (more than) a few pounds.
Could it be that Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson are spending his offseason drowning his football sorrows in food? It sure looks like that might be the case.
Check out these three recent photos of Jessica Simpson, followed by the thin Jessica at the Dukes of Hazzard movie premiere a few years back. Yikes!

Brett Leonhardt Living a Nerd’s Dream

Filed under Sports Rumors
Brett Leonhardt woke up Friday morning as a website producer for the Washington Capitals. By the afternoon, Leonhardt was the backup goalie for the Capitals. Leonhardt was needed to fill in since starting goalie Jose Theodore got injured and Simeon Varlamov, the player who would have usually been the replacement backup goalie, wouldn’t have been at the arena on time to serve as the backup.
For those of us who are sports website producers, this is the ultimate dream. Just to make it official — if any professional sports team needs an emergency replacement, I am available. I don’t really care …read more
Kimbo Slice Thinks Japan is a City – Video

Filed under Sports Rumors
Kimbo Slice, a street fighter turned mixed martial arts fighter, apparently didn’t major in geography. In the interview in the Kimbo Slice video at the end of this entry, he talks about the city of Japan. As you hopefully know, Japan is a country and not a city.
While this was a glaring mistake, I’m sure nobody is going to heckle Kimbo Slice too much about it. If you’ve ever seen him fight, whether on YouTube or in a professional match, you know this is one guy not to mess with. If he walks up to your face and tells you …read more

This guy cannot catch a break! O.J. Simpson was pulled over early Monday morning by the Nevada Highway Patrol after the unit received a call from someone at a gas station stating that Simpson appeared to be drunk.
Simpson, who was on his way to Las Vegas for his trial, was pulled over, but the NHP said he did not appear to be under the influence.
Let’s just hope Simpson can stay out of trouble for the rest of his trial, one that quite possibly could land him some jail time.

It’s Official, Chad Johnson Is Now Chad 8-5

This seems fitting. Especially for a Cincinnati Bengal. Chad Johnson is definitely his own man. He loved the name Ocho Cinco so much that he decided to change his name to just that. To celebrate his jersey number. But Ocho Cinco stands for 8-5, not 85. 85 would be ochenta y cinco. Now ochenta y cinco must not roll of the tongue for Chad like ocho cinco does. We are sure he knew that there was a difference. But then again, he is a Bengal.

Newly acquired Detroit Lions running back Rudi Johnson isn’t a hit with everyone in the 313 area code.

Manchester United’s Paul Scholes was sent off during the Red Devils’ 2-1 defeat against Zenit St. Petersburg last week in Mexico after receiving his second yellow card of the match, forcing a red card from the center referee. Scholes earned the boot from the contest after doing his best Diego Maradona impression on a cross into the box as he reached up with his hand and guided the ball past the keeper into the back of the net.
Scholes attempt was poor, however, as the ball was almost two feet over his head and even the commentators could clearly tell …read more

Are the Minnesota Vikings considering a relocation to Los Angeles? Well, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, members of the Vikings organization have turned down meetings with a ‘billionaire developer’ who is interested in a NFL team for Los Angeles.
This billionaire, Ed Roski, Jr., is planning to build an $800 million stadium in the City of Industry, Calif. with hopes of attracting a NFL franchise. Minnesota isn’t the only team that Roski has proposed this idea to, but the Vikings are declining his offer.
If the Vikes were to move to L.A., it was seriously sever the lifeline …read more
Mike Holmgren’s daughter booted from fantasy football league

Apparently, if you are the daughter of a NFL head football coach, that is grounds to be removed from a fantasy football league. That’s just what happened to Mike Holmgren’s daughter, Calla.
Holmgren, who is the head coach for the Seattle Seahawks, admitted that he didn’t know much about fantasy football. But, according to the story, his daughter does.
It’s hard to believe that someone would have that much “inside information” as the story is claiming to be kicked out of a league. I would boot an odds maker, bookie or player before I would boot someone that is …read more

The story of the 2008 Olympic games has been American swimmer Michael Phelps. The 23-year old Baltimore, Maryland native was the third swimmer for the U.S. in the 4×100m medley relay. Phelps helped the Americans to a gold medal in the event, and in the process became the only athlete ever to win eight gold medals at any Olympics.
After the event, Bob Costas gave us this golden nugget before NBC went to commercial:
“As we told you at the beginning of the Games, eight is a lucky number in China. Well, they started the Olympics at eight o’clock …read more
