Needling A-Rod, T.O on the Go, and Other Humorous Sporting Info

I was all set to write a hard-hitting piece on my displeasure with Shaquille O'Neal but then I thought better of it.

I've seen a few articles already addressing his recent comments on Dwight Howard and Stan Van Gundy, so I've opted to do something different. I try to do stay away from the obvious.

Anyway, with the recent activities going on in the sporting world, I've gotten to thinking.

• Alex Rodriguez has a torn labrum that will cause him to miss several months. Can't Major League Baseball allow the Yankees to shoot him up with steroids to speed up recovery? I mean, Cousin Yuri is hanging around, si?
• Can the NFL make the Detroit Lions sign Terrell Owens? Then everyone would immediately forget they went winless last season and focus on how T.O will attract the media this year.
• Is it possible that Jason Taylor turned down that $500,000 workout deal with the Washington Redskins because it interferes with an upcoming "Swan Lake" recital?
• Marvin Harrison is a free agent. Anyone think he might be a good fit in a run & gun offense?
• That was a blatant flop, Shaq. Let's call a spade a spade here. So, are Vlade Divac and Jason Collins accepting applications to the flopternity?
• JT O'Sullivan must get a discount with U-Haul. Nine teams in eight seasons. Wow.
  
• No more T.O means no more excuses and distractions. Tony Romo has to be serious and lead the Cowboys like he has sense. Oh wait, he's still dating Jessica Simpson. Forget all I said before.
  
• With Manny Ramirez re-signing with the Dodgers, Juan Pierre's role gets smaller in the organization. Isn't that redundant?
• New Jersey Nets player Sean Williams' trespassing case has been dropped. Dude, obviously, no one at the college knew you had a ticket at the "will call" window. Seriously, who would know that? You play for the Nets.
  
• Apparently, a whole lot trading went down over in the NHL. If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound?
• Selection Sunday is fast approaching. Grab the popcorn and beer. It's time to see a bunch of 18-22-year-olds cry.
• The New England Patriots acquired Greg Lewis from the Philadelphia Eagles for a draft pick. Those outside of Pennsylvania say Greg who?
• Terrell Owens could possibly come down here to Miami. Then it wouldn't be so weird to see guys working out topless outside.
  
• Allen Iverson said he'll do whatever is best for the Detroit Pistons, whether that's starting or coming off the bench. Perhaps the best thing for the Pistons is for everyone to wish the season ended so AI can leave.
• Just something to notice if you haven't already. In the Eastern Conference of the NBA, six teams are within five games for the No. 8 spot in the playoffs. In the Western Conference, eight-seed Dallas is 16 games ahead of the No. 10-seed team, Minnesota. (Phoenix is No. 9 and are three games behind Dallas.)
• Tom Brady has married Gisele Bundchen. Kleenex is now currently out of business after women flocked to their nearest pharmacy to weep. Men around the world rejoice.
