Is That Good?

So it's been exactly twenty days since my last post, and this in part because second semester has started and all that that entails. The other reason is because I felt that I lost some direction in where I was going with the blog. Although I could talk about sports all day, I feel as time goes by I will begin to incorporate some music, politics etc. as well. So viewer beware! Lotz of Zotz is expanding. Anyway back to sports...





Oklahoma high school basketball player heaves the ball with like .5 seconds left in the half for a three point shot. Honestly it was a lucky shot but what the hell is with his reaction. He seemed to suggest that "it aint no thang" and ill just pretend like I do that every game. Are you kidding me buddy? You live in Oklahoma, your still in high school, that's the luckiest you will get until Northwest Oklahoma State finds you and offers you a scholarship to warm the bench. Sick shot, bullshit reaction. I would have gone crazy had I made the one in a million shot.



Dude don't get up. Seriously, that kid just stepped on your face and jammed the shit out of the hoop. Not to mention you play Division III basketball in South Carolina, just don't. *Jarret Johnson has just been contacted by the Brandeis University basketball staff in hopes of his future transfer. (No but really, lemme get some of that Terrell Friday night when 'Deis plays defending National Champion Wash. U!) Oh and look at how weak of a crowd they got down in South Carolina, they got nothing on the JURY.



I retract my last statement. This guy really got his face stepped on. I mean his peripheral vision must not be up to par or something. Either way, the kid got stomped on and deserved to retaliate. Most people would call this dude out saying he purposely stepped on his face, but in reality, having a size 13 foot myself, it isn't easy managing where you place that big lunk of shoe. Props to the retaliation and eventual ejection.

The Cubs Will Never Make It To The World Series...

...Because there fans are all guys like this. Props to spending 100 hours and not messing up but you would never see a Boston fan doing this because there's no time for that when each season brings a playoff caliber team. Seriously though, wtf? That just doesn't seem possible. Proud to be from Boston. And clearly if Cub fans aren't on there etch a sketches then there doing things like this:

I Have a Bone to Pick With the NFL and The Associated Press...

The Associated Press 2008 NFL Most Valuable Player of the Year as well as the AFC Pro Bowl Selection for Starting Quarterback was none other than THIS GUY:

Peyton "Couldn't Make It To The Superbowl Again" Manning

The Associated Press 2008 NFL Comeback Player of the Year somehow happened to be:

Chad " 3 Interceptions In 7 passes; Wait This Isn't The Jets?" Pennington

The Associated Press 2008 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year could only have been:

Matt "I Swear To God This Dog Is Only A Stuffed Animal" Ryan

The NFC Pro Bowl Selection For Starting Quarterback:

Kurt "I Fumbled Half The Season Away" Warner

The AFC Pro Bowl Selection for Reserve Quarterbacks without a doubt had to have been:

Brett "I Throw Inteceptions Like It's My Job" Favre

and we can not forget:

Jay "Should Have Clinched The Playoffs in Week 10" Cutler

Who the #$%^ are they watching on Sunday? Peyton Manning is NOT THAT GOOD. He proved it in his cake walk turned loss to the San Diego Chargers last night. How could he possibly get MVP and also starter for the AFC? Chad Pennington's Dolphins won the lottery getting into the playoffs and got raped by the Ravens. The only reason they won any games was because of that "wildcat" offense which eliminated Pennington at quarterback! Don't get me wrong, I love Matt Ryan, I was a huge fan of him at BC and I thought he had a great rookie season in Atlanta although his #$% show at Arizona proved he was no Flacco. Kurt Warner is a decent quarterback, but any quarterback that allows his team to *#$% up that bad to end a season, doesn't deserve to start for the NFC. #$%^ I'd give it to McNabb after tonight's win over Warner. Did anyone see Matt Leinhart step into the game in Arizona's near blow out to the New England Patriots? Pro Bowl starter I think not. Brett Favre? BRETT *#$%@*$ FAVRE? The senior citizen tried harder to LOSE his cake walk of an end of season than any quarterback I've ever seen. He single handedly removed the Jets from the playoffs after week 12. How could anyone vote him into the Pro Bowl Period? Jay Cutler? Another choke artist that does not even deserve to be talked about. The NFL and Associated Press need to stop sucking dicks and start paying attention to football.

...well at least the Associate Press got it right naming this guy as the 2008 Defensive Rookie of the Year:

Jerod "I Eat Children For Breakfast" Mayo

...too bad his 11-5 Patriots weren't allowed into the Playoffs.

Biggest Snubs:

Matt Cassell ( QB New England) * as well as Comeback (dude hadn't played since High School!)
Phillip Rivers (QB San Deigo)
Joe Flacco (QB Baltimore) * as Offensive Rookie of the Year
Randy Moss (WR New England)
Calvin Johnson (WR Detroit)
Sam Koch (Punter Baltimore)
Patriot's O-Line

Hansbrough Cries; Roy Pulls a Hernia as Boston College Upsets #1 UNC!

BC 85 UNC 78

due to the 25 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds from Tryese Rice


This makes me feel so much better after BC's embarrassing loss to Vanderbilt in the Motor City Bowl last week. Go BC!

OVERATED!

Yes YOU Peyton Manning. (Revoke MVP immediately)

Wow 4-8 to a wild card playoff victory. You'll be bitchin 'n moanin about something in no time LT don't you worry.



Tom. Predictions:

Baltimore rapes Miami
Minnesota wins a close one over Donovan "I didn't know it was in the rule book" McNabb.

Why Not?

Why not let Stephon Marbury come to the Celtics?

1. You can't beat $14.99
   
2. He'll be playing as a veteran at the league minimum, so in reality its no big deal either way. Best case scenario, produces more than "Sam I Am", worse case scenario doesn't do anything and it doesn't matter.
3. It would be a GIANT *#$% YOU to New Yorkers everywhere
4. His attitude sucks but it's not like Isaiah Thomas is coming to Boston.
5. He is pretty talented, if I remember correctly.
6. He played with Garnett in Minnesota.
   
7. Could be the extra boost the Celtics need to solidify another parade next summer.
   

Boston "Title Town" Massachusetts

Just found this picture. Pretty much sums up life in Boston. Doesn't get any better for a sports fan. Nothing like skipping school (four times in high school) to go to a World Championship Parade. Thank you Boston.

It's 2009 Now! So Go Fight the Good Fight and Get @#$% Done

I was going to write a speech on how we should all work on becoming better people in 2009 but then I found this, and if this video doesn't motivate you to reach those goals you've set for New Years, than I'm not sure what will! I've already told Wool Dog, I'm taking FIVE classes this semester and I am gonna try and go to ALL of them on a regular basis! (Big deal, I know!) And I promised Rafi the Jew (he's Israeli) , NO USEMS! Well again, Happy New Year, lets make America a better place this year.

Happy New Year! Have a Lobster on Robert Parish

It is a little known fact that up until Paul Pierce's second or third year in the NBA, around the Rick Pitino era, the Celtics practiced at Brandeis University. My father being both a professor and Head Coach at Brandeis, I was able to meet most of the Celtics players up through the daunting Pitino days. Signed cards of Larry Bird, Robert Parish, Kevin McHale were just a few of the treasures I got when I was young. At the age of five, I even got the opportunity to shoot a few shots with Larry Bird. As much as I love this commercial, the chances of the "three amigos" doing this for a local restaurant on Washington Street is pretty slim. Celtic Pride Baby.



Kobe and Pierce should definitely do a commercial like this. but only if Pierce grows as ugly, and as dirty of a mustache as the one Larry Bird is rockin.



Great commercial from the guy that just according to TMZ told an officer when being arrested for a DUI: "I was gonna drive around the corner and get a blowjob," as well as telling the officer at the station: "I'll tattoo my name on your ass," if he helped him get out of the DUI. Oh Sir Charles.
