If there’s one awesome thing about the P.R.O. convention it’s that you discover lots of new talent. And what is this convention I speak of? Why it’s an annual gathering of cheerleaders from all over the land. They discuss cheers, dance a little and basically look really hot the entire time.
And thankfully I got a chance to see the lovely ladies that represent the Rockford IceHogs. Aren’t you glad I didn’t post any preseason NFL girls today? Been doing that a little too much lately.
Enjoy the Ice girls after the jump…..
Hal and Hank Steinbrenner remind me of those chubby kids in kindergarten that bitched and moaned and didn’t play well with others. Those real bratty kids you hate. The only thing I will say positive in this article is; I realize it must be challenging to follow in the footsteps of The Boss. I mean the guy’s nickname was “The Boss”. He was one of the most accomplished business owners in the history of the United States of America. Anyway, in an attempt to emulate his late father, Hank Steinbrenner has put the jinx on the Yanks by saying…..
Obviously, we’re in the toughest division by far in baseball. So it’s going to be a struggle down to the wire,” Steinbrenner told reporters during a youth charity baseball event at Yankee Stadium on Thursday afternoon. “We’d like to win the division, but I think we can be rest assured we’re going to get the playoffs, then it’s a matter of what we do from there.
It’s just a lose-lose comment. If you make the playoffs, you were suppose to. If you miss them, you look like an ass. You can’t say stuff like that in professional sports, and you shouldn’t say stuff like that with the way your team has been playing the last few weeks. If the Yankees were in the NL East than yeah, by all means, but not this division my friend.
I feel bad for the Steinbrenners. They’ll never be like they’re father no matter how hard they try. Nobody will.
Don’t you guys think that Scottie Pippen getting a statue is a little much? Pippen was a great player in his own right. Don’t get me wrong. But shouldn’t a statue be for the best player of a team’s history. I mean let’s face it. Scottie Pippen was a key to all the Bulls championships but he wasn’t a team carrier or anything like that. I don’t know man. I don’t get it.
All I do know is that there are players out there who are statueless and are far more deserving than Pippen.
Here are five worth noting….

Nobody is ever satisfied!! NCAA tournament needs more teams, the NFL needs more games. Maybe I’m against change, but they both seem to be working pretty damn good. Eventually money will ruin everything that was good in sports.

I don’t get amped up for the Slam Dunk Contest, but I have to give respect to this collection of slam dunks. The cart wheel dunk is innovative and deserves some respect. This is probably one of the better dunk contests I’ve ever seen. That small dude can fly. Thanks Raws. Meep
The World Basketball Championships could not have come at a worse time. People are desperately ready for football, baseball divisional races are getting sexy, and European soccer has began. Alright, most probably don’t care about soccer, but they certainly don’t care about the World Basketball Championships in Turkey. It’s somewhat of a shame because the team is actually pretty interesting to watch.
Part of the problem is there aren’t enough big names in the tournament. The US doesn’t have Kobe or Lebron, Germany doesn’t have Dirk, and Serbia has Nenad Krstic. It’s a shame that the best player in the NBA, Kevin Durant, doesn’t get enough name recognition. It’s a shame that guys like Danny Granger, Rudy Gay, Russell Westbrook, and Kevin Love don’t attract attention. Why? Because they’re damn good, and they aren’t as flashy as most of the idiots in the NBA.
The tournament is set to kick off, and the US is suppose to steam roll the competition. If they win, no one will care. If they lose, they’ll be an epic failure. World Baseball Classic and the World Basketball Championships are underrated tournaments that no one will watch, and it doesn’t seem like it will change anytime soon….
OK folks. I’m running out of comments to make. I keep saying that every damn cheerleading squad in the NFL is my favorite. But can you honestly blame me? I don’t think it’s possible.
And good Lord are the Redskins Cheerleaders not ridiculously qualified? They are tantalizing. They are teases. They make me go insane. I just don’t have the strength anymore.
Preseason torture after the jump…
Every season there are players in the fantasy baseball world that are worse than the girl who won’t have sex with you after five dates. I mean at least with these girls you kind of know when to quit right? But not baseball. There are some guys you’re just convinced will be good every single game because of one game where they exceed expectations.
This happens mostly with pitching. You’ll have a guy who lets up 8 runs in an inning against a shit team one day and then he goes out and strikes out 11 Yankees. It’s a fickle world in fantasy and it’s annoying as hell.
Here are five fantasy pitching teases that toy with me like I’m some chump little kid…..
