Floyd Mayweather’s Racist Rant At Pacquiao

Floyd Mayweather’s circle might want to try and curtail the Champ’s penchant for going on Ustream and going on ridiculous racist rants directed towards Filipinos and Asians at large. Mayweather may be writing a check with his month, that his cheeks can’t afford.

Hawaii QB Laid Out By USC Linebacker

Hawaii quarterback Bryant Moniz was ready to have the game of his life in the Warriors’ home-opener against the sanctioned #14 USC. Moniz was instrumental in keeping his underdog squad in the game until late in the 3rd quarter when Trojan linebacker Michael Morgan knocked the bejesus out of him.

Moniz layed on the ground for several minutes following the hit, which appeared to be a cheap shot to the head of the Hawaii qb after checking out the replay. Moniz did not return for the remainder of the game and neither did his squad as they got served with a cherry on top.

For what it’s worth Morgan wasn’t flagged on the play but if this was the NFL, he could have expected a solid fine to be handed down.

Confirmed: People In Turkey Are Funky

Danny Granger got a ton of heat from the Euro community on Twitter, after he posted a few eventually deleted tweets, clowning people in Turkey for being a little too odorific.

This sparked a debate amongst the Chaser delegation, because based on our knowledge, Euros typically roll with minimal showering and deodorant usage, which has been known to create a scent that can be quite difficult on the nostrils of those that don’t have their mind (and hearts) prepared.

Eventually we came to the decision to try and support Granger for speaking his mind, based on our suspicions that most of the population of Turkey, as well as most other countries in region, are in fact funky.

After several calls, bbm’s, emails, facebook, gmail and aim (some people still use it) chats with several current and former athletes that have spent time in Turkey within the past 7 years, they all confirmed the accuracy of Granger’s tweet.

Which leads us to the conclusion that Granger was well within his rights to comment on the fact that Turkey’s proverbial roses actually do smell like boo boo, without the need to lean a little bit closer.

Report: Carmelo Anthony Not On Trading Block

ESPN.com’s Marc Stein is reporting that Nugget’s superstar Carmelo Anthony is not on the trading block. At the moment.

According to Stein, several “sources tied to potential Anthony suitors” are reporting that the Nuggets are shutting down any inquiries about Melo right away.

According to our sources, this is the case for a handful of teams, but the Nuggets continue to entertain offers from a select few franchises, with Chicago being the front-runner. The handwriting is on the wall for new VP of Basketball Operations Masai Ujiri, who will meet with Anthony in the next week, either in Denver or Los Angeles.

Nuggets brass seem to think that Ujiri can”re-connect” with Anthony on some kind of level, since they both came into the league at the same time and had a cordial acquaintance. That assertion is silly, as big-time NBA career decisions aren’t typically influenced because your homie is the new GM.

Ujiri was never in Anthony’s inner circle, so it’s baffling that the Nuggets have so much confidence in his ability to influence Anthony to stay…….

DAMN!: Iowa O-Lineman Gets Binged By Truck

Anytime you’re on a moped and you try to take on a truck coming full speed from the other direction, the situation isn’t going to end pretty.

Kudos to Iowa offensive lineman Josh Koeppel for providing one of the greatest 4 second videos of all times, showing the hefty Hawkeye getting what should have been a one-hitter quitter.

By just watching the video it appears that Koeppel is surely dead or at least really unhappy, because he got hit so hard that one of his shoes flew like 30 feet in the air. Luckily, Koeppel didn’t even suffer any major injuries, walking away with some minor cuts and bruises.

LOL: Ricky Rubio Owned By Crafty Lithuanian

This is what’s known as a classic case of getting ookie doked. Evidently Little Ricky still has a lot learn about playing basketball with the big boys. This is why you never turn your back on opponent, somebody should have told Paulie C. this before he decided to do it Henry because it never ends well.

Manny Ramirez Is A Legend (Like Bagger Vance)

Manny Ramirez may have been born in the Dominican Republic, but he has spent a good portion of his life in America, where he has become fluent in speaking the Kings.

During his introductory press conference with the White Sox Tuesday (who were playing at Cleveland, another of Ramirez’s former teams) Manny decided to conduct his entire press conference in espanol, with a translator right by his side for the whole ordeal. The majority of American reporters in the crowd asked Manny their questions in english, which he obviously understood, then proceeded to answer the question in spanish which the translator bridging the gap.

Manny has gained a reputation throughout his career for being a character, which has caused the media to cast a negative light on him. Conducting the press conference in spanish was just another beautiful demonstration of “Manny being Manny,” and not bowing down to squares just because they want him to.

Looks like Manny has the juice now (literally).

Tis Tough: Plax Denied Work Release…Again!

Former Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress was denied work release yet again by the New York State Department of Corrections and will now have to serve out the remainder of his 2-year sentence for Cheddar Bob’ing himself back in 2008. This means that Plax won’t be back on the streets until at least June 2011.

The decision to deny Plax work release basically means that his NFL career is over as few teams would be willing to take a chance on a 34 year old that hasn’t played a game since the 2008 season. A nearly 3 year layoff means that it would take Plax at least a season to re-acclimate himself to the gridiron, which is time that he really can’t afford.

The decision to keep Plax behind bars seems pretty idiotic by New York correctional officials, considering that Burress still has enough skill to play in the NFL. Instead of allowing Burress to be a financial burden on the state by sitting in prison getting free room and board.

Instead of keeping Plax behind bars, why not let him go out there and make some dough, so said dough can be taxed significantly by the state and actually bring in revenue to help keep real criminals behind bars.
