Monday, July 14, 2008 - 1 hockey player, 1 cup

-Apparently the Rogers Centre banned the Madonna pictures during the Yankees-Jays series, yet the "F-bomb" signs remain legal. Give me a freaking break.
-The saga continues. And this fan-made website really speaks for itself...
-If you live near Chicago, don't be surprised to see Derrick Rose sitting beside you in a Driver's Ed class.
-To those planning on attending the Olympics in Beijing, crossbows have been banned. You have been warned.
-In the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, Tony Romo placed an impressive third in his debut at the tournament. Retired NHL legend, Brett Hull finished in a tie for fifth. Not surprisingly, Charles Barkley finished dead last. Annika Sorrenstam served as an analyst - and said about Chuck, "It is a very unorthodox swing".
-Detoit Red Wings' veteran Kris Draper's baby daughter pooped (rumoured to be diaperless at the time) in the Stanley Cup. Still dream about drinking out of Lord Stanley? This happened in June by the way, a month before so many had drank, ate ice-cream, timbits, various foods etc. out of it.
-McDonald's new slogan for the games in Beijing (translated): "loves it when China wins" at the Olympics. So what's the big fuss about? McDonald's has always been a selfish money grabbing corporation, this shouldn't be news to anyone.
-Not enough pre-game juice for Jose Conseco apparently, as former Philadelphia Eagle, Vai Sikahema knocked out the former baseball star in the first round of the celebrity Boxing match.
-Everyone's favourite E.T lookalike, Sam Cassell, is a confirmed "celebrity" judge at the 1st Annual Pole Star Invitational (a pole dancing contest, for those not aware).
-Three Canadian big men – Samuel Dalembert, Levon Kendall and Rans Brempong – fouled out in the game against Germany. While Joel Anthony was limited in minutes due to foul trouble. Leo Rautins was quoted as saying, "It was decided by factors outside the players on the court". Hmm...I wonder what he's hinting at.
-Better take notice, Cleveland Indians...
-Jimmy Kimmel
and Sarah Silverman have split-up. I blame Matt Damon.
