Is Skip Bayless A Good Enough Deterrent To NOT Draft Someone?

Again: The Houston Texans will forever regret it if they don't take Johnny Manziel with the No.-1 overall pick.

Skip Bayless. That’s it. I’ve literally tried 4 times to start this blog and I don’t know what to say about him. He’s an annoying asshole on TV but that’s his character and that’s why he has a shit ton of money. It works. He and Stephen A. Smith (played better by Jay Pharoah on SNL) are basically just two old guys (white and black) who disagree on literally everything. Football, basketball, the color of the fucking sky. The one thing they agree on is when they get weird about religion on air and make the athlete/rapper they have on stage really uncomfortable. All that aside, if Skip Bayless likes someone to the point of no return and I am a GM, I will not draft them. He would’ve murdered someone to get the point across that he thinks Tebow can win a Super Bowl. And that’s last week. He STILL thinks Timmy has the best QB skills of all time. Look how that turned out. Tim beat the Steelers and then got sodomized by Tom Brady and the Patriots in the second round of the playoffs and he hasn’t played since. Now Skip thinks the same thing about Johnny Football. Ruh-roh. Drake doesn’t have enough swag to pull him out of that nonsense. Bayless is the Cooler of the NFL draft which means that anything hot and exciting that gets touched by his seal of approval is destined to fail. Sorry Johnny, you had a good run.

PS Fuck Skip Bayless having a 90 year old women’s face and a jacked body. Go eat a donut and maybe you will see why Tebow can’t be a real NFL QB

Floyd Mayweather Wants to Buy The Clippers, Along With Every Other Rich Celebrity

USA TODAY- Floyd Mayweather Jr., the world’s top pound-for-pound boxer, said Tuesday that he and some other investors would be seriously interested in buying the embattled Los Angeles Clippers from Donald Sterling, who was banned for life by the NBA for racist comments and may soon be forced to sell the franchise by NBA owners. “I can’t come in here talking about Mayweather only going to get 3% or 4%,” Mayweather, a huge Clippers and Los Angeles Lakers fan, said at the MGM Grand. “I got to get a solid percentage. “But do we want to buy the Clippers? Yes we do. We’re very, very interested in buying the Clippers.”

Well it has begun. Right after all Donald Sterling’s comments were made public, everyone assumed Magic Johnson would get his group together and buy up the Clips. But now that it’s official from Adam Silver that Sterling is banned for life, everyone with millions of dollars is coming out of the woodwork to throw their name in the hat to own the team. Floyd Mayweather, who clearly has the money, is apparently getting together with De La Hoya and other investors to put the funds together. David Geffen, the music mogul, has had interest in the past in the team and now is back in the news. And I guess Rick Ross (celebrity net worth of 25 mil. Come on playa) wants to own a share and Diddy (he has the money) also wants his name in there. Personally I think if you put together Floyd, Diddy and Magic that would make a really bad ass trio of owners that would become the new place to want to play in the NBA. First it was in Miami with Bron Bron, then Brooklyn with Jigga, now it’s LA and not for the Lakers but with Diddy and the Money Team.

Fucking hilarious that Ricky Rozay wants in. Stick to Wingstop home boy

Dan Patrick to Host Sports Jeopardy

Bleacher Report- According to the Associated Press (via Cleveland.com), Emmy-winning sportscaster Dan Patrick will play the role of Alex Trebek on Sports Jeopardy!—a sports-themed version of the popular Jeopardy! game show. Produced by Sony Pictures, Sports Jeopardy! will begin airing this fall via Crackle, a Sony-owned digital service otherwise known for distributing Jerry Seinfeld’s Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. This means Patrick and company will not be aired on NBC like the original game show. However, this mode of distribution could lead to greater interaction for viewers. Sports Jeopardy! will be made available to viewers with PlayStations, Xboxes, Apple TV and Roku—a safe and cheaper conduit on Sony’s part. The biggest difference between Patrick’s show and the old show is a mobile app reportedly in development for the program. Users watching Sports Jeopardy! on their mobile devices will be able to download an application allowing them to keep score in real time. Other such mobile Jeopardy! score trackers have been developed but not in an officially licensed capacity or with access to the exact questions posed on the show. As a sports fan, all of this news appeals to me. Given his general manner and knowledge of the game, Dan Patrick is an excellent choice to fill in as “Sports Trebek.” Hopefully we’ll see some celebrity contestant editions of Sports Jeopardy! as well. Who wouldn’t want to test just how much they know compared to actual athletes and coaches?

So basically they just took what guys do every single day of their lives, challenging each other to sports trivia, and made it into a game show. And they picked the best possible host in Dan Patrick. There has never been nor will there ever be (outside of myself and Ken) a guy that is really fucking cool and a sports nut. His show is the only one on the DirecTv channel that probably gets any views and it’s a nationally syndicated radio show too. Great idea to not put it on TV because so many people get their television second hand via the internet and/or apps on smart tvs. I haven’t had cable in 2 years and I have to miss one episode of a good show or any news and I save a shit ton of money by just having internet. Can’t wait for this show so I can boom roast Ken on football trivia.

Artie Lange Radio Show Being Cancelled

I don’t have much on this since I just heard it on the Bubba the Love Sponge Show, but apparently DirecTv is cancelling the radio show and the tv show. So Artie finally gets out of the hospital and they can his show, pretty fucking shitty. I really like Artie, I love how he interacts with the guests but I was never a fan of Jon Ritchie being his cohost. I understand he has the insider knowledge of being an ex pro football player. I get that it’s a comedy and sports show. Jon just spoke like he has had way too many concussions. The guy fought through sentences like Bieber fights through chicks at a concert. Loved him on the Raiders, not a huge fan of him being on the radio. Either way I hope Artie lands back on air in some way, shape or form and if it was on one of Howard’s stations that would be fucking awesome. Good luck Artie.

25 Highest Paid Athletes in the World

I love this list because it always makes me laugh. GMs and Executives always think they are so fucking smart signing someone who has a big year or two to a decade long contract where the biggest pay days are WELL past their primes. Let’s break down some of the more interesting people on the list.
Floyd has basically dominated the list every year since Tiger got divorced.
Crisitano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi being 2nd and 3rd makes since because people who have never watched soccer know how good they are. Simple as that, worldwide stars.
Aaron Rodgers being the highest paid football player may not seem right to some people but I don’t mind it. 40 million for last year is a little nuts for on the field performance but he is the face of the NFL. He is the future and he will be a/the top QB for years to come.
Matt Stafford, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco being in the top 10 is fucking great. These are the guys who cashed in on a few good years (only Flacco has anything to show for it) and are now banging the buttholes of their teams cap limits. Good job boys.
The Phillies have 3 guys in the top 25 and they are in last place. I honestly don’t think Ryan Howard and Cliff Lee even play baseball anymore and I refuse to look it up for the correct information. There are 6 guys above anyone on the Yankees at all so all those “you buy your players” people can suck a dick under a bridge. (Thank God A-Rod is suspended and doesn’t count)
Gilbert Arenas. He may not be in the top 25 total but he is the 3rd highest paid NBA player and WASN’T IN THE LEAGUE. There is always someone like that and this time it’s Gilbert. Play on playa.

Find Out Your First Tweet and Immediately Hate Yourself

https://discover.twitter.com/first-tweet

That’s the link that Twitter is providing, for it’s 8th birthday, so you can find out what your first tweet was. Of course you can find out what everyone’s first tweet was so that is what makes it more fun. Most people’s are “Hi Twitter” or “Still trying to figure this out” but mine could’ve easily been from last year or last week.

Mayweather to Fight May 3rd

$1 Million to whoever can tell me what any of those belts mean

Fox Sports- Floyd Mayweather Jr. gave himself a 37th birthday present Monday, confirming he’ll collect another multimillion-dollar purse by selecting Marcos Maidana as his May 3 opponent. Mayweather (45-0, 26 knockouts) will defend his World Boxing Council welterweight title on Showtime pay-per-view at a site to be determined, either MGM Grand or Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. “I am extremely happy to be facing Floyd Mayweather because it will give me the opportunity to show the world that I am the best welterweight in the division,” said Maidana, who will represent throngs of Latino boxing fans on Cinco de Mayo when he faces the pound-for-pound king. “I just handed a great defensive fighter his first loss and I plan to do the same to Mayweather. I don’t care whether he’s the best and undefeated. I will bring some real Latino power to him on May 3rd.” Maidana boasts an 82 percent knockout rate.

Does anyone really give a shit about Floyd Mayweather outside of his own mind? Like people depend on him for salaries and shit but who really cares when he fights again? The gamblers know to bet him in a decision for an easy win and the guys fighting him have to know they won’t be able to hit him. He is still super fast and all he does is defend himself. It’s boring as hell and costs 60-70 bucks to watch from home. Every new guy they bring up to fight him is supposed to be the knock out guy, hard hitter, and then nothing happens. Floyd is just out there bidding his time until the after party with Biebs and collecting his unfathomably high checks. Good for him I guess, really shitty for the fans.

Ray Rice Knocks a Bitch Out

That’ll learn a bitch

FOX DC- Police in Atlantic City say Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice was arrested at a casino there after an argument with his fiancee turned physical. Atlantic City police said that Rice and Janay Palmer were both arrested on simple assault charges and were released on a summons after an incident at the Revel Casino early Saturday morning. Both Rice and Palmer declined medical attention and neither reported any injuries. Michael Diamondstein, an attorney for Rice, says that he’s hopeful that after an investigation “the matter turns out to be little more than a misunderstanding.” The Ravens released a statement Sunday night. “We are aware of the Friday night situation with Ray Rice and his fiancee,” the Ravens said. “We have spoken with Ray, and know that they returned home together after being detained.” Rice played at Rutgers University in New Jersey and was drafted in the second round of the 2008 draft by the Ravens

Deadspin is also reporting they have an eye witness that said Rice was spit on by his fiancée and then he uppercutted her, knocking her unconscious.

Of course getting punched by any pro football player would be terrible, but a shot from Ray Rice would be one of the worst. He has short arms that a fucking huge so a quick uppercut would most likely make you want to quit life. His chick is probably thrilled she went out cold because that pain is not something you want to deal with right away. Either way, I’m on Ray’s side. I’ve been spit on by chicks, drinks thrown in my face, slapped, punched, pinched..the whole nine yards and there is nothing more that you want to do than knock a bitch out. But you can’t because you go to jail, unless you are super rich and have Michael Diamonstein (the Jewiest last name of all time) and he gets you out before you even hit general pop. Probably didn’t even have to put on the jailhouse slippers. Just took a nap with a big drunken smile on his face knowing he finally shut his chick up. And from now on I bet she doesn’t even let spittle leave her mouth when she’s talking or else ol’ Triangle on Fight Night ’04 comes back and she’s seeing tweety birds again.

Mayweather Puts Up 10.4 Mil on Broncos

**BREAKING NEWS**Source: Floyd Mayweather not only bet 10.4Mill on Broncos -2 ' He also is betting 2.6 Million on Broncos -1/2 1ST Half #IBN

— IB THE GAMBLER 🔌 (@incarceratedbob) January 28, 2014

I am ALL for making gambling legal. I’m not going to get into a political debate or rant but if you make hookers, gambling and (nation wide) weed legal, and all regulated and taxable, the US would have about 10 quintillion dollars in about a month. Every guy loves pussy and gambling and if weed is legal more people would smoke just because it’s sometimes easier than pounding shots of Turkey. But all that aside, Mayweather is fucking awesome. Hate the guy because he has the Biebs with him ringside or hate him because he hits women, but don’t hate his fucking gambling game. They say he is worth 80 million liquid. Liquid. That is cash. He bets 50k like we bet 50 cents. So when he bets on the Super Bowl he literally changes the fucking odds and lines. Think about how much power that is for one man to do that who isn’t Italian and from a Scorcese movie. Love the guy, love the strategy, fully taking his pick. Broncos -2 all day err day.

PS But only psycho paths or guys with 80 mil in cash bet that much on a half.
