Peterson To Break Smith's All Time Rushing Record?

Can Adrian Peterson break Emmitt Smith's all time rushing record by 2017?  Nope.  Break it?  Yes.  By 2017?  No.  He would have to average 120 yards per game . . . In the second half of his career.  Not gonna happen.  If you have thoughts on this, lay 'em on me.

A-Rod Wants To Be A Role Model

Alex Rodriguez said that he wants to be a role model . . . "No thanks," commented America.  We'd rather look up to someone who doesn't cheat and can at least tell if they have an injured leg or not (looks fine here).  Instead of offering to BE a role model, Alex, I recommend that you GET a role model.  And his name is Derek Jeter.  Dude homered on the first pitch he saw after coming off the DL.  And he's not a tool.  And he probably doesn't own boat shoes.  Or pop his collar.

Brewers Owner Offers Vouchers To Loyal Fans

Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark Attanasio is offering Brewer fans a $10 voucher for tix, food, and beverages if they come to an August home game.  The reasoning behind the generous gesture is to try and "mitigate a trying summer."  In light of Ryan Braun's recent actions, I say he should go halfsies with Attanasio.  After all, he still has plenty of money that was earned before he got caught cheating, right?  Braun?  Braun? . . . Anyone?

Rich Fronig wins 3rd consecutive Crossfit Games Title

Rich Fronig just won his 3rd straight Crossfit Games Championship.  Not familiar with Fronig or the Crossfit Games?  Mmm, you will be (said in a Yoda voice).  The Crossfit Games combines the strength of a power lifter, the endurance of a marathon runner, and the agility and athleticism of a gymnast.  So that makes Fronig the world's best athlete, right?  Maybe.  If you watch a Crossfit Games broadcast on ESPN, thoughts such as "Are these people being punished for something?" or "Does the winner get to live?" or "Please help them- that looks like it hurts" will cross (no pun) your mind.  There is one word to describe these competitors- machines.  So that makes Rich Fronig the Terminator, right?  Possibly.  So then what would you call Rich?  For now, let's just go with all around badass.

Mahan Leaves Canadian Open . . . While In the Lead?!

Hunter Mahan had a 36 hole lead at the Canadian Open this weekend.  Then his wife went into labor . . . and he left.  What?!  He just left.  Yes, having a kid is an important, life-changing event, but my wife would have slapped me on the butt and said, "You'll meet 'em on Monday.  Go make a million bucks so we can literally pay for this child."  Go to www.sportslam.net and tell us your thoughts on this.  Full story in link below.

DDP Takes In Two Broken Souls- Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Scott Hall

Read this Deadspin article first.  It's awesome . . . especially if you're a wrestling fan.  Wrestler turned yoga master Diamond Dallas Page took in Scott Hall and Jake "The Snake" Roberts, two former wrestlers who have been in and out of rehab numerous times, and is holding them accountable for their actions.  The author poses the question, "Has Page sold them a false promise for the purpose of strengthening his personal brand and selling yoga DVDs?"

Judging by the fact that

1) Both Hall and Roberts haven't been this happy or healthy in a long time,
2) DDP's business was doing fine without them and,
3) They were all instrumental in each other's careers

I'd say DDP is doing what family does- picking them up, dusting them off, and putting them back on the right track.  So if there are any other questions about DDP's motives, I've got two words for you, the author, and anyone else . . . SUCK IT!!  Story here.

Titans Rookie Saves Family From Burning Car

Former Clemson Tiger and current Tennessee Titan Jonathan Willard rescued a family from a burning car on his way to Titans' training camp.  Obviously, this will not be a slam on him.  Good job, sir.  May goodwill find you for the rest of your days.  HOWEVER, to the mom that was driving this vehicle down the road while it was already on fire or at least smoking heavily, you had 3 kids and a dog counting on you to deliver them safely to their destination.  You are proof that people should have to get a license to become a parent.

Story here.

Rodgers Crappy Twitter Bet

Think you know your friends?  Yeah, well Aaron Rodgers thought he knew Ryan Braun enough to "bet" his $39.5 million salary on Braun's innocence regarding using PEDs . . . He was wrong.  These days we have too many people in all sports that turn to bottled performance.  Sad and sucky.  Who is/was your favorite athlete who broke your heart by cheating?  Story here.

Florida LB Arrested For Barking at Police Dog

Florida Gators linebacker Antonio Morrison has been arrested . . . again.  This time he went to the clink for barking at a police dog, but in his defense it was a Bulldog.  Story here.

A-Rod Scratched From Rehab Start Due To "Tightness in His Thigh"

According to ESPN, A-Rod was scratched from the Triple-A Scranton lineup today due to "tightness in his left thigh."  He left for NY to get an MRI, but there is no word yet on whether doctors will diagnose him with a hurt pussy. Story here.

Brady's Secret Weapons???

Umm, this dude at Yahoo Sports has an interesting definition of a secret weapon.  Does he really think that Aaron Hernandez and Wes Welker can be replaced by the likes of Shane Vereen?  If Shane Vereen is a secret weapon, I'm Batman.  Story here.

Racist Idiots Rip Marc Anthony for Singing at the MLB All Star Game

Dear morons who ripped Marc Anthony for singing at the All Star Game, . . . you're retarded.  One asshat even told the singer to "get out of his country." Anthony was born in NY and is Puerto Rican.  And for the record, Puerto Rico is a US Territory.  So next time you wanna unleash your fat, ignorant mouths, make sure you at least know what you're talking about.  Story here.

Bobcats Change Name to Hornets . . . Again

Really Charlotte?  How about sticking with one name.  With their upcoming name change (back to the Hornets), the Bobcats are now officially the "Prince" of the +NBA . . . I just released some doves while "When Doves Cry" plays in the background to highlight that joke.  Story here.

Culpepper Loses Miami Home

Dear +NFL players, learn how to save your money.  The bank recently foreclosed on Daunte Culpepper's $3.6 million house in Miami.  So maybe while you have money coming in you should put more of it in the bank.  And no, I'm not talking about the club you used to frequent called "The Bank."  Story here.

Hernandez Has Been "Polite" in Jail

In jail, Aaron Hernandez has apparently been "very polite and very respectful."  I, myself, prefer polite murderers. I mean if you're gonna kill someone, it's best not to be mean about it.  Suck it, Hernandez.  Story here.

Damn, Nike.  How many people looked at this and signed off on it?  Not enough.  Check this out.
