That’s $5,000 a Somersault, Mr. Bush

By oddSeth ⋅ January 29, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Reggie Bush has been fined $5,000 by the NFL for taunting during his 88 yard TD reception versus the Bears in the NFC championship game, during which he pointed back at Brian Urlacher and then somersaulted into the end zone.
No offense to the NFL, but that’s just dumb, on all sorts of levels. None of […]

Tiger Woods is Better than You at Golf

By oddSeth ⋅ January 29, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

The Tiger train keeps on rolling, notching his 7th consecutive win on Sunday. Tiger now has the second longest consecutive win streak in PGA history, trailing only Byron Nelson’s seemingly unbreakable (until, well, Tiger came along) streak of 11 straight wins.
“As far as how special seven is, you’re in elite company,” Woods said. “There’s only […]

Roger Federer is From Some Strange, Gaseous Planet Where They are Very Good at Tennis

By oddSeth ⋅ January 29, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Roger Federer not only just won the Australian Open, but he managed to do so without even dropping a single set, something that has happened in a Grand Slam since 1980.
His final victim was 10th-seeded Fernando Gonzalez of Chile, who squandered a chance to win the first set Sunday and never got another breakpoint as […]

Yahoo, Please Be Shutting the Hell Up About Reggie Bush

By oddSeth ⋅ January 25, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Just so you know, I hate USC. Hate them. I’m the guy who always calls it the Crap-Ten, who believes that USC, Cal, and whatever Oregon team happens to be good that year consistently are overrated and would get hung with 2-3 losses every year if they played in the SEC or Big Ten.
But for […]

Manning Mum on Thumb

By oddSeth ⋅ January 24, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

I really shouldn’t complain, as we’re about to be facing that horrible, horrible time of the year when the Super Bowl is done and anything quasi-sports-related is unwatchable until March Madness, but do we really have to endure breathless story after breathless story about the state of Peyton Manning’s thumb?
Who cares if he won’t update […]

The Next Steelers Head Coach is… This Guy!

By oddSeth ⋅ January 21, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Seriously, anyone’s guess is just as accurate as what ESPN or SI.com or what the Steeler’s themselves are saying.
First it was Cowher’s Jaw, then it was Mike Tomlin, then it was Russ Grimm, then it was definitely Mike Tomlin, then it was no one and the search was still on, then suddenly it was definitely […]

R.I.P. Bam Bam Bigelow

By oddSeth ⋅ January 20, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

In one of those stories that makes his simultaenously feel old and sad, Scott “Bam Bam” Bigelow was found dead at his home yesterday, at the age of 45.
While I was getting a little too old to really be excited about wrestling when he was big (shut it all you WWF/WWE freaks), ’tis sad to […]

Ashley Force Isn’t a Screamer

By oddSeth ⋅ January 18, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

We can’t claim to be the biggest fans of drag racing, but we can think of a few reasons to start paying attention, especially with Ashley Force taking over the gas pedal at John Force Racing.
Some interesting nuggets from that article include:
“The tough thing is, when I look at her in the cockpit, those are […]

Chris Webber has officially inked a deal with the Pistons, getting the pro-rated league veteran’s minimum of $550,000 for a one year deal.

Umm, Strahan, I’m Not a Lawyer But I Don’t Think That’ll Work

By oddSeth ⋅ January 14, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Michael Strahan has been ordered to pay his ex-wife Jean Strahan $15.3 million as part of their divorce proceedings, which works out to 50% of their net assets plus 20% of his salary during each year they were married. How did they judge arrive at that specific figure? Well, it was pretty simple, as the […]
