Friday, November 21, 2008 - Breaking the Bank

-Tony Romo gets my "good guy of the day" award for taking a homeless man to the movies, and even sitting next to him afterwords. When the man mentioned that he hadn't showered in a few, Romo replied, "Don't worry about that, I'm used to locker rooms." You don't have to like the guy as a football player, but as a person, he's a class act.
-To the right is a picture found on SI.com's FanNation: Caption this, Ashley Judd at the UNC game. One of the selected captions on the site: “Ashley got very angry when an ignorant fan called her a Cougar and not a Wildcat.” (Midvalley). Awesome.
-Gilbert Arenas is saying that finishing in last place could have it's benefits as the lottery can be seen as the silver lining, using the San Antonio Spurs and Tim Duncan. True enough, however this is not what you want to hear from your star player, and plus, ever heard of a guy named Joe Smith or Kwame Brown, Gil?
-The Phillies' Chase Utley has opted to have hip-surgery, and may miss the beginning of the regular season in 09 - and recovery could take up to May according to team officials.
-Although it's laughable to think that guys like Kendrick Perkins and Brian Scalabrine are trash-talking about rings and being the bees knees of the NBA, someone needs to tell Quentin Richardson to just shut up and play the game.
-The Mets' all-star David Wright was mobbed by a group of "cougars" (two cougar references in one day? I know, right?) and was heard yelling: "Ladies, calm down! Please, relax." The name of the event is just ironic, "Do the Wright Thing".
-The Boston Red Sox are looking to "break the bank" on Mark Texeira, meanwhile the Yankees are looking to do the same, but to every big name free-agent. What else is new?
-Look at what leaked concerning Mark Cuban, what isn't on the internet these days?
-And finally, a new rule in the MLB: postseason games will not be shortened by weather. Good job, Bud.

The Score's Court Cuts, enjoy:
