Bob Sanders of the Indianapolis Colts was named the NFL Defensive Player of the Year. It isn’t quite the MVP Award (we all know that the Dreamboat won that), but it’s still an honor for Sanders to be recognized for his defensive prowess.
Oh, who am I kidding? Does anyone actually care about this?
Don’t look so forlorn, buddy – Holly cares about ya!
Roger Clemens continued his “I Am Innocent 2008” tour, with a press conference last night. Seriously, Roge, shut up. For anyone who hasn’t heard the tape that Clemens played at the press conferences, visit good ole ESPN – I’ll wait.
Okay, now that you’ve heard it, doesn’t Brian McNamee sound like a little kid? And I don’t mean that in a pathetic way, but in a “stop picking on him already!” kind of way. When he tearfully asks Clemens what he wants him, McNamee, to do – I don’t even know what to think of all that anymore.
At one point, near screaming, Clemens asked: “How do you prove a negative? How do I do it? Do I keep just shelling out millions [in legal fees]?” His lawyer, Rusty Hardin, trying to alleviate the tension perhaps, quipped: “That’s a good idea.” +1 to Rusty, from the Legal Dept. of Ladies…
What I did enjoy was the many faces of Clemens:
“I ate his liver with fava beans and a nice chianti.”
“I have never used steroids. Period. “
“This is my serious face. This means I’m taking this seriously.”
“This is my less serious face. This means I’m on TV right now – Hi, Debbie! Yes, hon, I know that none of this would probably be happening to me if we’d had Cingular.”
Seriously, this is the exact same face Baby Mets pulls when she’s been caught doing something naughty. Ergo, I’m going to infer that Clemens has also done something naughty.
Oh, Grant Hill. He was my first athlete crush, when I was a freshman in high school, and he was a Detroit Piston. I even dated a guy just because he looked almost exactly like GH. What?
Over in the NBA, the Phoenix Suns defeated the Denver Nuggets, 137-115, with a little help from everybody. The team had 20 3-pointers, and Marcus Banks made 7 of them. For that, my boy, you get your name in bold. Grant Hill had 20 points of his own.
“Dude, Jessica Alba’s at our game!”
In the other NBA game, the Golden State Warriors beat the San Antonio Spurs, 130-121, in overtime. Baron Davis had 34 points and 14 assists, while Tim Duncan had 32 points and 13 rebounds.
And because I’ve promised myself I wouldn’t overlook the NHL:
Dallas beat Minnesota, 3-1, Edmonton shut out the Islanders, 4-0, and Anaheim defeated Nashville, 5-2.
Oh, and of course, there will be BCS goodness to come later.
Ladies... 
Clemens has fabulous skin. Really.
Oh, who am I kidding? Does anyone actually care about this?
Yes, who could possibly muster a shred of enthusiasm for the NFL when we have….Roger Clemens’ mug to stare at in HD.
Yes, hon, I know that none of this would probably be happening to me if we’d had Cingular
+1. Made me LOL literally
TSW, I’ve read that one of the side effects of HGH is that your skin gets really clear and smooth and fabulous.
Just sayin’.
TSW, I’ve read that one of the side effects of HGH is that your skin gets really clear and smooth and fabulous. Where do I place my order? Is McNamee still in the business?
Yes, hon, I know that none of this would probably be happening to me if we’d had Cingular. Is there anyway he can write this off as having bad cell service so he didn’t understand what McNamee was saying? Cause it would be false advertising if he wasn’t telling the truth about Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, etc. dropping his calls right? (Also, Cingular should read AT&T but that’s not my point here)
Clare – Really? Hmmm… which has more side effects? HGH or the Pill?
I second Doug’s request – where do I place my order?
Cingular should read AT&T but that’s not my point here
Ah, yes, the new AT&T. My bad.
I thought they cancelled the BCS game due to Roger Clemens’ press conference? No?
Go anybody who’s NOT OSU then.
Well, do you want to have good skin and recover from injuries really fast, or do you want to have good skin and not be popping out babies all willy-nilly? I think that’s the choice between the pill and HGH.
But will the HGH make me all bloated? That is the real question.
TSW –
I think so. Look at Barry Bonds’ head. Do you want a bloaty head?
Bloaty head! Heh, awesome.
Dammit. Bloaty head, but stellar skin.
That is a tough choice.
But you’ll have bloaty head with great skin. I’ll take that. Maybe.
And Grant Hill was my first athlete crush as well.
I STILL LOVE YOU ROGER! You and your fat head!
I even dated a guy just because he looked almost exactly like GH.
If there was a guy I knew who looked almost exactly like Jacoby Ellsbury…
Hey, I care about Bob Sanders!
Now as for Roger Clemens, he can take a long walk off a short pier for all I care.
I care about Bob Sanders too. I’m a Pats fan, but that guy plays a strong game of football. Excellent choice.
Thanks for piping up, you two. I was feeling quite alone.
I too care a lot about Bob Sanders. I’ve found myself rooting for the Colts b/c of my two Iowa boys. Sanders is a beast and nobody wanted him in college b/c he was too small. But Iowa loved him.

Well, these are interesting thoughts. I think they are true. However, everything is
relative and ambiguous to my mind.
