With all due respect to Matt Hasselbeck, was he the best NFL quarterback EAS could get to peddle their Myoplex protein drink? Matt Hasselbeck? Seriously?
Here’s Rutgers’ non-conference schedule for the upcoming football season: at home versus Howard, Florida International, and Texas Southern. On the road against Maryland and Army. That’s embarrassing. Did their athletic department sign an endorsement deal with Hostess? Sounds like Greg Schiano is worried about bowl eligibility.
In 49 games with the Red Sox last season, Jason Bay hit nine home runs, had 37 RBIs, batted .293, and had an OPS of .897. Through 50 games this season, Bay has blasted 15 home runs, knocked in 49, is hitting .288, and has an OPS of 1.042.
Throw in great defense, no mysterious injuries, and the lack of locker room issues, and Bay has fit in quite well in Boston. Red Sox fans, repeat after me: Manny who?
As I type this, a Brett Favre Wrangler Jeans commercial is airing. He just won’t go away.
The Boston Herald is reporting that Patriots’ safety Rodney Harrison will announce his retirement on Wednesday and join NBC’s broadcast team for the upcoming season. Harrison was suspended in 2007 for violating the NFL’s substance-abuse policy for using Human Growth Hormone, according to ESPN’s Chris Mortensen.
Given the outrage in baseball over PED usage, one has to wonder if Harrison would be welcomed into the announcers’ booth so quickly if he was putting away his bats and glove?
Hopefully the Astana team will straighten out their finances in time for Lance Armstrong to ride in the 2009 Tour de France. Was there anything more fun in the month of July for seven straight years than seeing the French squirm as Armstrong dominated their bike race? Come on, Lance. You look so good in yellow. Be the Ugly American one more time!
Attention Buckeyes, attention. If you want to stop the big-game bashing, then man up and beat USC on Sept. 12. The Trojans are breaking in a new QB and have a totally revamped defense. Plus, you’ve got them at the Horse Shoe. Same goes for you, Notre Dame.
NBA Finals predictions:
· Kobe Bryant has at least one game in which he takes more free throws than the entire Orlando team.
· Jack Nicholson will make a court side spectacle of himself because, well, that’s what he does.
