I know these 3 clips have nothing to do with sports, but I thought that it would be entertaining because all you need to do is laugh sometimes.  I will probably post 3 videos every so often so stay tuned, I guess:

THEY GET BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT GETS EVEN BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was listening to ESPN radio when one of the guys, Steve Mason, spoke about a video on the internet that had him rollin'.  I was pretty interested in finding the video and when I did I was shocked, but I had to laugh also.  The tv show Family Guy did its portrayal of Michael Vick and his crime in a short clip from the show.  I am going to stop talking and just show the video:

The video is only 16 seconds long but it says a lot.  What do you people think? Is it too soon or not?

College football kicked off last night with offensive powerhouse Boise State going up against an equally dangerous offensive team in Oregon.  Everybody expected this game to be in the high 20's or maybe the low 30's; however, the game transformed into a defensive battle making it less entertaining.  The game featured only 27 points combined with the final score being Oregon 8 and Boise State 19.  The real "entertainment", I use that term loosely, came at the end of the game when Oregon RB, LeGarrette Blount punched Boise State's Byron Hout in the face after Hout allegedly taunted him.  You can see the punch below at this address:

All the guy did was tap Blount on the shoulder pad and he catches five knuckles in the chin.  I think Blount should be kicked off of the team.  I understand that he was frustrated because of the loss and probably because of his stat-line: 8 rushes for -5 yards.  He is a senior and he acts like this after a loss, that is ridiculous. This guy needs to be kicked of the team and possibly criminally charged!!!!

Celine Dion and Ron Artest go together like cereal and mayonnaise yet somehow the self proclaimed "thug", Artest, makes it work.  The guy is known for his wild antics such as going into the crowd and beating up a fan, but it seems that Artest is beginning to display a softer side.  As a Laker fan I love that we are bringing a little crazy on our team because a team can always use a little crazy, right? Although he can't carry a tune and the video is clearly irritating you get a sense that he means what he is singing which makes is somewhat enjoyable to watch.  I am going to stop talking about it and just let you watch it:

I understand that Shaquille O'neal is a man that transcends just the NBA, but watching him attempt to play against other athletes in their own sport is extremely difficult to swallow.  Watching Shaq attempt to swing a bat was like watching a baby giraffe trying to walk.  It was hard to watch yet I could not take my eyes off of it, like a car accident.  The 7'1" O'neill attempted to out-slug Albert Pujols, out-spike beach volleyball stars Misty May and Kerri Walsh, and out-throw Ben Roethlisberger, needless to say he could not out-do anybody at anything.  The show is a half hour too long and the hosts are extremely annoying.  The most important part of the show, the actual competition, takes place in the last fifteen minutles of the show making the first 45 minutes irrelevant.  Here are some short examples of the show from Youtube:

So as I said, the 100m was a big deal. But, not as big as expected, since Bolt did not run with Powell and Gay. Despite his absence, Gay still gave people something to talk about. He ran a 9.79 that was just barely over the legal limit. What looked close, wasn't even close at all. The last twenty meters or so Gay was the clear victor, and was obviously onto something special. Another American, Darvis Patton came in second with a 9.95. Followed by Asafa powell, who faded at the end.

Also, a performance by Allyson Felix was spectacular. She was the only athlete to get a diamond, by running the meet record and running the fastest 200m time of the year. Felix absolutely murdered the competition and was quickly embraced by a number of runners. This performance looks good in predetermining the out come we may see in Berlin. Winning there will make her a three time world champion, along with Gay, who is going for his fourth.

Tomorrow is going to preview some of the best competition in the 100 meter dash before the World Championships in Berlin. Triple Olympic gold medallists Usain Bolt, former world record holder Asafa Powell, and the triple world champion Tyson Gay are the elites of a field that all run under ten seconds. It looks as though that this race is as important, if not more than the World Championships themselves. With such a field of runners, there will be no surprise to see a new world record.

The man in line to do it is Tyson Gay. Of the main three that include Bolt and Powell, Gay has run the best times of the year, a 9.75 wind assisted and a 9.77 in Rome. As long as gay’s persistent groin pains stay in check, he is expected to win. But it begs the question, “should Gay go all out and risk injury before the world championships?”
