Same old story, some team bitching about how much the Yankees spend when in actuality the Yankees are paying the Brewers to spend that much, blah blah blah….

Even though Duke beat Butler for the National Championship, Obama felt obliged to call America’s Cinderella.
Coach Brad Stevens taped an appearance for the “Late Show with David Letterman” from the free-throw line, and the Bulldogs even got a not-so-customary phone call from President Barack Obama.
“I think his message was that he wasn’t just going to call the team that won today because of the way both teams played,” Stevens said.
The President later said he had told the Bulldogs they “played a great game, showed tremendous heart, and he hopes to get a chance to play with them.”
Don’t let your kids play with him, Brad! Everything the man touches turns to shit! You think it’s a coincidence that he played ball with Carolina and then they couldn’t even make the NCAA Tourney? Of course not! Obama is poisonm stay away!!!!
Butler University fans watched the NCAA Championship game Monday at Butler’s home arena, Hinkle Fieldhouse. The fans seemingly lived and died with every made basket. In the end, Butler lost.
Kind of cool watching the game through a reaction of a crowd though isn’t it?
At least the timing of the injury was awesome. The Raptors are clinging to the 8th playoff spot in the East, but it may be tough to hold on when their best player is out with a broken face. I can’t imagine how painful this must be, but I’m also a bit desensitized thanks to that gruesome Andrew Bogut injury.
As we gear up for the NBA Playoffs (and what feels like an eternity) I am looking forward to seeing what stories unfold and particularly if the Cavs can overcome being eluded of another title opportunity. Personally I think they’re gonna do it this time with Shaq’s presence out there.
Another story of the playoffs though? You might want to watch out for those Spurs. They may not be seeded quite as highly as in past years but don’t be surprised if these guys put on a show.
Speaking of putting on a show, Sports Illustrated just released some pictures of the Spurs Dancing squad which I happen to be sharing after the jump
David Ortiz simply can’t handle criticism. Already he’s flipping out at reporters who question his slow (and presumably steroid-free) start. After losing to the Yankees last night, he got his panties in a bunch.
“Good,” he said, turning to face the reporters encircling him. “You guys wait till [expletive] happens, then you can talk [expletive]. Two [expletive] games, and already you [expletives] are going crazy.
“What’s up with that, man? [Expletive]. [Expletive] 160 games left. That’s a [expletive]. One of you [expletives] got to go ahead and hit for me.”
Nothing new to see here. I don’t understand how this guy can be such a fan favorite when in actuality he’s a tempestuous asshole who can’t handle any sort of criticism. I mean, this is a guy who whined about teams using a defense shift on him. Instead of crying, how about learning to hit the ball the other way? We’re also talking about a guy who spent all of 2004 campaigning for an MVP award, yet he’s the ultimate team player and A-Rod is a selfish phony. Whatever. Black Shrek’s days are numbered and it’s only a matter of time before the racist city of Boston turns on him for good.

Even though I tend to root for Duke, I have to admit that their fans are the absolute worst. Obnoxious, privileged dorks who know more about applying face paint than they do about the game of basketball. And the most insufferable fans after Duke fans? Pretty easily Boston fans, who have proven time and time again that they just don’t know how to handle winning. The inferiority complex of Boston fans is truly a phenomenon to behold, and it’s on full display in the picture above. Only a Pats fan would take a shot at Indy during a college basketball game. Let it go, dude – Manning is better than Brady.
