    Barry Bonds Failed Amphetamine Test

    Mariotti had a heart attack? When did this happen? (thanks to work I haven't seen ATH in awhile) On his way to cover Notre Dame/LSU (I think) he had bad chest pain on the flight. Once he got to New Orleans, it did not subside so they rushed him to the hospital where he had an emergency angioplasty. He's fine, so it's ok to joke about. He should be back on ATH in a month or so, from what I've read. Although I honestly can't stand him.

    Barry Bonds Failed Amphetamine Test

    It's days like today that I am thankful that Jay Mariotti had a heart attack so I don't have to hear his bullshit on ATH. As for the story... yawn.

    iPhone and iPod

    I actually think that's the plan. I'm about three years away from needing a phone like this, so I'm just glad the option for the phone will be there. But I just might need to get the 6th generation iPod then if it's in this same build.

    Apple has this up on their page now... http://www.apple.com/iphone/ Really worth walking through some of the demos. They're breathtaking.

    Ripken, Gwynn elected to HOF

    Holding Bonds out of the HOF is retardation on the highest level and anyone who backs such a position really needs to strongly consider how WRONG they are. He's a jerk. He probably did roids, yes. But Barry was too good for too long, including multiple MVPs in years when steroids weren't even in question. Not to mention he was otherwordly and feared like no hitter (not named Babe Ruth) in history from 2001-2004. Hundreds of players were taking steroids at the time but none even came close to being the hitter and force that Bonds was. People have to get on their high horse and preach to the moral fabric of America, but a HOF without Bonds is not a HOF.
  10. 12/30/06 from the MGM Grand in Vegas Main: Ortiz vs. Liddell 2 Under: Keith Jardine vs. Forrest Griffin Andrei Arlovski vs. Marcio Cruz Jason "The Athlete" MacDonald vs. Chris Leben Eric Shafer vs. Michael "The Count" Bisping Dark: Tony DeSouza vs. Thiago Alves Carmelo Marrero vs. Gabriel Gonzaga Yushin Okami vs. Rory Singer Anthony Perosh vs. Christian Wellisch I'm going to try and convert a bunch of my friends who have never seen UFC or MMA before into fans with this card. I think the card has a chance to be decent enough, especially if we get to see Rory Singer's face smashed in. It doesn't hurt that Lidell and Ortiz are two of the few fighters even non-fans know. Thoughts? Predictions?

    iPhone and iPod

    I read in the comments on the Engadget article that the Cingular exclusivity is 3 years. Not sure how reliable that is, but if true that would be good for me. I probably won't have a job that will require a phone with so many capabilities until then anyway.

    UFC to be on HBO

    If anybody has Time Warner Cable, they are offering HBO for $5/month for the next 6 months and then it will go it's normal price after ($12.95/month). Hell of a deal. I already ordered.

    Ripken, Gwynn elected to HOF

    Some total dumb fuck mailed in a blank ballot because he couldn't in good conscience vote for anyone from the steroids era. Not only should he lose his priviledges, but someone should rough that fucker up. And honestly, Rice, Dawson and Blyleven should be in.

    iPhone and iPod

    4GB is $499 and 8GB is $599. Uh yeah, this is a huge fucking deal. Link to everything... http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/09/the-apple-iphone/ I'm a little pissed it's a Cingular exclusive as I'm a Verizon guy and I'd probably seriously consider getting one.

    Case in point, the man who might be the Marlins CF this season... This was the first guy busted. Alex F'n Sanchez.

    UFC to be on HBO

    Fuck it. I was on the fence about ordering HBO before with Entourage, The Wire, Curb, etc. I'm getting tired of waiting for the DVDs... But if UFC is on HBO, that decides it. No questions asked. Awesome.

    2006-07 MLB Offseason Thread

    1) They have to pay ridiculously high rent at Dolphin Stadium and don't get any parking or concession revenue 2) Loria is a cheapass. But WOW! I am SO glad that Miami gets to keep a pro sports team after all! Because after all, when I think of the great sports towns in America, I think of St. Louis, Chicago, and Miami. Those are two reasons. A third is that they play in a football only stadium and one of the "reasons" that the crowds are so sparse is that there is a 75% chance of rain every day and the heat in July and August is too much for some people to bare... hence the need for a retractable roof. We'll see if that ends up being true and attendance goes up or if it was all just a load of baloney.

    2006-07 MLB Offseason Thread

    The Marlins have finalized plans for a retractable roof ballpark in Miami Dade county, keeping the team in Florida. It still needs to be approved by the county and city boards but will NOT go to a public vote, which is what killed the other 5 or so times they made it this far. I have faith this will get done as the head baseball negotiating man is MLB's Bob DuPuy and not shit-for-brains David Samson of the Marlins. If this happens, the next thing I want to see is Miguel Cabrera signed to a 7 year, $140 million contract. No more excuses after this. Here's the article for anyone interested: http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/...sp&c_id=fla

    ESPN sucks, so do thread closers

    Makes you wonder what Harold Reynolds really did if an inferior analyst in Salisbury can get his job back after texting his penis around.

    ESPN sucks, so do thread closers

    J.A. Adande brought his A game yesterday busting out his Jaws impression for an entire segment and doing an awesome Art Shell impersonation to end the show. Funniest thing I've seen on that show in ages. Of course he didn't win.
