Ara Abrahamian Tosses Olympic Medal

August 14, 2008 By: refrieds Category: sports 1 Comment →

After being DQed Swedish Olympic Wrestler Ara Abrahamian fights the power:

Pretty tame for a wrestler. Punk ass reacted more like a synchronized swimmer. He should’ve grabbed someone for good old fashioned ground and pound. Or at least a bodyslam. The WWE definitely wont be calling…

WNBA Basketbrawl = Progress?

July 24, 2008 By: refrieds Category: sports 5 Comments →

A few months ago, the WNBA had its first dunk. Many took it as a sign of progress.

The other night during a Detroit Shock / Los Angeles Sparks game, the WNBA had its first brawl:

You’ve come a long way baby!

Obama Needs Him Some Fedor

July 20, 2008 By: refrieds Category: sports 1 Comment →

In wake of Jesse Jackson’s proclamation against Barack Obama, there is one man who can make a difference to ensure the safety of the Democratic nominee: Fedor Emelianenko.

Unlike Kimbo Slice, Fedor doesn’t knock out bums. He destroys world champion Ultimate Fighters. Take a look at what he did to Tim Sylvia, a guy who held the UFC Heavyweight belt longer than anyone else in UFC history:

With Fedor protecting Obama, Jesse needs to fear for his own nuts sake!

Scott Kalitta died while trying to qualify for the NHRA. Nothing funny about this car crash…

LeBron James Curses Moms

May 13, 2008 By: refrieds Category: sports 1 Comment →

Moments before Sue Simmons lost her cool in New York, LeBron James told his mother to sit her @$$ down in Cleveland:

What is this world coming to? LeBron should’ve let his moms knuckle up with Paul Pierce.

Vince McMahon, you have your Wrestlemania Main Event delivered on a silver platter.

Michael Vick’s Sentencing Is Good For Fantasy Football

December 10, 2007 By: refrieds Category: sports No Comments →

michael_vick Michael Vick was poison to any fantasy football owner who drafted him in the past few years.  Sure, he’d rack up the running yards, and in some cases outperform quarterbacks not named Peyton Manning.  But he’d screw over your team the next week with his questionable passing skills…especially if you had any of his wide receivers (although Alge Crumpler was quite the tight end with Vick as his QB).

It took his arrest to bring value to Roddy White, who I need to have a decent game tonight against New Orleans in order to get to the playoffs! 

But enough about my fantasy football obsession which has lost me friends and all but killed my blogging!  This is about Michael Vick.

How appropriate is it for Vick to be sentenced to 23 months in prison.  Not to save dogs from him, but to save fantasy football owners from wasting a draft pick on him!

Hell, if he was still playing, I probably would be vying for the toilet bowl!

Owners of Vince Young this season can relate!

Randy Couture Quits UFC

October 12, 2007 By: refrieds Category: sports No Comments →

Randy Couture UFC Heavyweight Champ Randy “The Natural” Couture, resigned from the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Thursday:

I’m tired of being taken advantage of, played as the nice guy and basically swimming against the current with the management of the UFC. I have a lot of other things going on in my life that I’m doing just fine with. I don’t need the problems. I don’t feel like I get the respect I deserve from the organization.

Couture’s state of mind sounds just like that of a man ready to don a mask and handle justice…vigilante style.

Sound far fetched?

Considering Randy Couture is regularly referred to as Captain America and he quit the UFC the same day Marvel announced the birth of a new, brutal Captain America maybe he is thinking about taking on Cap’s mantle.

But unlike the new Captain America, Couture don’t need no stinkin’ gun!

Oscar De La Hoya Wardrobe Malfunction

September 24, 2007 By: refrieds Category: sports 5 Comments →

oscarfishnets Another day another celebrity wardrobe malfunction.  This time it’s championship boxer Oscar De La Hoya.

His recent fishnet photo controversy seemed to be squashed with Mario Lopez weighing in:

“I just spoke with Oscar about the photos and we both got a big kick out of them. He said he looked like his aunt. They are so far fetched. Clearly they are fake. When you are at the top a lot of people want to drag you down.” 

Unfortunately for Oscar De La Hoya, News of the World spoke to the stripper who leaked the photos:

“He loved to dress up in lingerie. He would strip down naked in front of me and try on outfits. He asked me to bring him clothes he could wear and loved the fishnet tights and wigs. Once he borrowed my glitzy full length sash dress and pranced around the room singing in a woman’s voice, saying: ‘Ooooh, look at me’. But it was all about domination. He would say to me, ‘Please, put me down on my knees and pull my hair’. And he liked to be called Goldie—not Golden Boy. That’s what he told me.”

To make matters worse, she revealed more photos including Oscar being dominated by her, a true wardrobe malfunction (NSFW), and Oscar wearing a tutu.

Hell hath no fury like a stripper scorned!

Mysterious Woman Defiles Sumo Ring

September 22, 2007 By: refrieds Category: sports 2 Comments →

It was your typical day of Sumo until a woman charged the ring (VIDEO):

It was not clear why she had attempted to reach the ring during one of the sport’s heavily televised six big tournaments, but she was carrying a bundle of flyers saying “help, bad spirits”.

Some believe she was protesting sexism in Sumo, which excludes women from entering the ring on the grounds that it is sacred and their presence, considered unclean, would pollute it.

But if she was protesting sexism, why was she was carrying a bundle of flyers saying “help, bad spirits”?

There are three theories:

1. She was trying to alert the public that one of the wrestlers was possessed and thus had an unfair advantage;

2. She was seeking help because she was possessed; or

3. She was trying to save one of the wrestlers from a tainted batch of sake intended to fix the match.

I think she was trying to cop a feel and get some jiggly Sumo lovin’. 

As for the flyers and feminism?  Purely coincidental.

Feminine Antics Don’t Kill Machismo

September 20, 2007 By: refrieds Category: sports 2 Comments →

There’s a lot of hoopla surrounding all of the unmanly behavior exhibited by athletes in the past few weeks.

First it started with Bernard Pollard of the Kansas City Chiefs and his booty poppin’ dance moves

pollard dance

Weeks later, it was University of Florida safety Tony Joiner kissing quarterback Tim Tebow on live television

Now it’s Oscar De La Hoya’s fishnet pictures

Some would believe that all of this activity suggests that machismo is dying and these guys will bring forth a new era of openness and respect for women and gays.

But I know better.

Although Isiah Thomas and Magic Johnson got these clowns beat twenty years ago during the NBA Finals, Isiah is the worst kind of chauvinist bully to work for…if you believe the sexual harassment lawsuit against him!

And to go further back than that, we have Joe Namath wearing pantyhose:

Years later he tried to molest Suzy Kolber live on ESPN!

Let us learn from Broadway Joe and Isiah Thomas. If one truly is macho, tapping one’s feminine side has absolutely no impact on the caveman impulse to tap that booty!
