Mr. US Debt Rising, Got to Keep on RISING

Bush wants 50 billion more for his illegal disastrous invasion of a sovereign nation or otherwise known as the Iraqi Clusterfuck. My analogy of Bush and Cheney in casino continually racing to the ATM with our tax payers money keeps ringing true.

I remember one of the main issues of the 2000 campaign was which candidate would do what with our budget surpluses. Surpluses? that is a good one.

Now, the Democrats are the party of fiscal discipline and the Republican party continues to support unlimited spending of tax dollars for nation building. Ronald Reagan must be rolling around in his grave.

The National Debt is now 7.9 trillion and rising.

Some debt is not a bad thing but having too much is quite obviously bad fiscal behavior. Go ask any American straddled with large payments on their credit cards. How long do you have to pay the interest before you can actually pay the capitol.

In Fiscal Year 2006, the U. S. Government spent $406 Billion of your money on interest payments* to the holders of the National Debt. Compare that to NASA at $15 Billion, Education at $61 Billion, and Department of Transportation at $56 Billion.

We spend 4 times the money on the interest on our debt than we do on education and transportation COMBINED!

This 50 billion that Bush wants is additional from the $460 billion in the fiscal 2008 defense budget and the $147 billion in a pending supplemental bill to fund the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Nor does it include the 456 Billion that we already have spent in Iraq.

I am sure Congress will cave and keep giving Bush all that he wants. I have no idea how to end this Fn war and I am scared shitless that he will start another one with Iran before his god awful White House tenure is over. Read this if you think a Iran war is far fetched.

It was the 2 year anniversary of Kartina. Remember the disaster that nearly wiped out one of our coolest cities. Bush's boy Brownie the horse trader sure knew how to respond. The disaster knocked the invincibility swagger out of the Bush Administration's sails and they have never ever recovered. It unmasked their total incompetency and highlighted their lackluster compassion towards poor people. The strategy of blaming state and local officials was highly ineffective. People wanted results and actions.

Wonder if those people could use some federal money not caught up in red tape?
It’s hard to get an accurate estimate because the [cost of occupying Iraq] mounts so rapidly every minute. Can’t help wondering how much farther along the [Gulf Coast] rebuilding would be, how much more could be spent to improve public education, insure the 43 million Americans without health insurance, ad nauseum. Great legacy you’re leaving, George.

I could not have said it better myself.

Skip to My Throat Slash

Skip to My Lou created the whole And One phenomenon with his Mix Tape. His moves were sick! If it was not for Skip to My Lou, the And One Tour and Shoe line would not be anything.

In the NBA, Skip to My Lou was Rafer Alston, a journeyman, who had one good season with the Heat and got a huge contract out of it. He was ran out of Toronto for a bad attitude and played last season in Houston.

Htown's smog and out of control sprawl must be getting to him. In less than a month, he has spit out on a parking attendant and now just slashed some dude at a NYC nightclub.

He will always be Skip to My Lou to me, no matter if its Skip to the Pokey.

POON Diggity

The Southeast part of America just freaks me out. I just can not get the whole Jesus Christ/Nascar worshiping thing or the racist views/rampant use of NBombs behavior.

The South does possess 2 great qualities that I love entirely:

College Football and Super Hot Women.

This new site, SEC POON, bring them together into one. Even though I have seen most of those poon pix before, I am just speechless.

Thank You for NOT including any pictures of Jenn Sterger. She recently completed the American dream by parlaying her fun bags/internet fame into a gig with CNNSI.com. It is 2007 and Sterger is still smoking hot but she is OLD POON! NEXT!

I love the word POON, I could say it all day and it NEVER EVER gets old. POON

Thanks to WithLeather for the Tip.

OH, I am not endorsing dudes that wear ties to football games. Saturday Gamedays are meant for "No Jerseys" attire no matter what! Skin to Win BABY!

Nine for Nine

I once saw KC Royals Kevin Seitzer go 6 for 6 in baseball game and I thought that was an impressive feat.

Until I read this article about Broncos RB Travis Henry.

Henry, 28, has fathered nine children by nine women in at least four Southern states and has been ordered by various judges to provide child support for seven of them, according to court records involving one child living in DeKalb County.

9 for 9! Unbelievable. Mr. Super Sperm, Move Over Shawn Kemp.
It is hard to get one person pregnant but to knock up 9 different women is a near impossible feat.

Henry wanted to gather his illegitimate kids up to watch their Sperm Donor/Father at training camp. Henry's lawyer had this money quote.

"I know these are a lot of kids, and there might be some questions about it," he said, "but he's a really committed father."

The only thing he seems committed to is buying 100K gold chains/cars instead of paying child support. Henry's commitment level to the "Raw Dawg" can never be questioned either!

Today in 07

Mac G's World plans to have an ongoing segment of posts called "Today in 07." These will focus on events of our world or pop culture that could only take place in current day 2007. I heart the 90s debuted on MGsW last week. It might appear to have a 3rd segment focusing on Closeted Gay Republicans trolling in bathrooms and blowing sleeping dudes. Trust me I do not.

I have a MySpace account and I check it from time to time. I have done my best to avoid becoming a crackspace addict. MySpace is a good way to keep in touch with people and stalk people that you just met! I am always checking out new bands or keeping up to date with my favorite music groups.

When I first signed up to MySpace, I had a friend request from this girl that I grew up with and I never was good friends with her so I denied her request. I had not seen this girl in at least 10 years or maybe more. She went crazy, started messaging all of my hometown friends on their myspace pages and talking trash about me. I found it hysterical and I could have cared less. She has 4 kids with 3 different dudes and I was ready to fire away some message to her like "leave me alone, little Sally needs changed, stop spreading your legs, whore." Finally, I reached out the olive branch and asked her to become my friend, it was the only way to end this dumb madness. She accepted and made some sarcastic comment, whore.

My point is that all of sudden becoming or denying someone as your MySpace friend became a new social pressure. Even who you list as your top friends can cause friction between friends.

Since this incident, I have not denied a friend request to anyone that I knew already but it turns out maybe I should have. On MySpace, you can write bulletins, which basically go out to all of the people on your friends list. It is like a massive Spam Email. They are very popular communication methods to send information to wide range of people instantly. Bands are constantly sending updates.

I received this bulletin from a girl I grew up with.

I BET THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF YOU ON MY FRIENDS LIST THAT DONT EVEN BOTHER TO READ MY BULLETINS. SO THIS IS WHAT I AM GOING TO DO. WHEN I SEE THAT ONE OF YOU HAVE REPOSTED THIS I WILL GIVE YOU A PICTURE COMMENT. SO THIS IS JUST TO PROVE WHO IS AND WHO IS NOT A TRUE MYSPACE FRIEND. SO IF YOU THINK YOUR A GOOD MYSPACE FRIEND REPOST THIS. AND IF YOU DONT THINK YOUR A GOOD MYSPACE FRIEND DONT BOTHER TO REPOST THIS. THIS IS JUST TO KNOW WHO UR TRUE MYSPACE FRIENDS ARE.....repost this as "To ALL my MySpace Friends"

I have no idea how to respond to this at all. There is a slight possibility that she might have been MySpaced hacked and this was sent by someone else.

Or she is NUTS and just threatened all of her MySpace to admit they read her JC bulletins.

Today in 07.

BREAKING NEWS! Another Republican Pol Involved in Gay Bathroom Sex Scandal

I am having a hard time digesting this story but Republican Senator, Larry Craig (Idaho) was arrested last month for lewd behavior at the Minneapolis airport. Senator Craig was trying to find a jolly time for his "distinguished gentleman" in a men's room but he was busted by an undercover cop in the stall next to him. He pleaded guilty and paid the fine.

My 3 initial thoughts.

• What is going on with hard core conservative Republicans, bathrooms and gay sex?
• The article states that Airport police previously had made numerous arrests in the men's restroom before in connection with sexual activity. Do people really blow some steam off in bathrooms at an Airport? I have heard some crazy stories in my years on this planet but never ever I have heard of dudes hooking up in airport restrooms. I thought this sexual activity only took place in shady public parks and rest stops.
  
• Maybe the Cop was just a disgruntled groupie of the "The Singing Senators" and had it our for their lead singer, Craig.
  

It seems Senator Craig has had allegations in the past of him blowing some dude in DC Train station, Union Station.

WOW.

The hypocrisy continues.

Here is the full Roll Call Article.

Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) was arrested in June at a Minnesota airport by a plainclothes police officer investigating lewd conduct complaints in a men's public restroom, according to an arrest report obtained by Roll Call Monday afternoon.
Craig's arrest occurred just after noon on June 11 at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. On Aug. 8, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct in the Hennepin County District Court. He paid more than $500 in fines and fees, and a 10-day jail sentence was stayed. He also was given one year of probation with the court that began on Aug. 8.

A spokesman for Craig described the incident as a "he said/he said misunderstanding," and said the office would release a fuller statement later Monday afternoon.

After he was arrested, Craig, who is married, was taken to the Airport Police Operations Center to be interviewed about the lewd conduct incident, according to the police report. At one point during the interview, Craig handed the plainclothes sergeant who arrested him a business card that identified him as a U.S. Senator and said, "What do you think about that?" the report states.

Craig was detained for approximately 45 minutes, interviewed, photographed, fingerprinted and released, and police prepared a formal complaint for interference with privacy and disorderly conduct.

According to the incident report, Sgt. Dave Karsnia was working as a plainclothes officer on June 11 investigating civilian complaints regarding sexual activity in the men's public restroom in which Craig was arrested.

Airport police previously had made numerous arrests in the men's restroom of the Northstar Crossing in the Lindbergh Terminal in connection with sexual activity.

Karsnia entered the bathroom at noon that day and about 13 minutes after taking a seat in a stall, he stated he could see "an older white male with grey hair standing outside my stall."

The man, who lingered in front of the stall for two minutes, was later identified as Craig.

"I could see Craig look through the crack in the door from his position. Craig would look down at his hands, 'fidget' with his fingers, and then look through the crack into my stall again. Craig would repeat this cycle for about two minutes," the report states.

Craig then entered the stall next to Karsnia's and placed his roller bag against the front of the stall door.

"My experience has shown that individuals engaging in lewd conduct use their bags to block the view from the front of their stall," Karsnia stated in his report. "From my seated position, I could observe the shoes and ankles of Craig seated to the left of me."

Craig was wearing dress pants with black dress shoes.

"At 1216 hours, Craig tapped his right foot. I recognized this as a signal used by persons wishing to engage in lewd conduct. Craig tapped his toes several times and moves his foot closer to my foot. I moved my foot up and down slowly. While this was occurring, the male in the stall to my right was still present. I could hear several unknown persons in the restroom that appeared to use the restroom for its intended use. The presence of others did not seem to deter Craig as he moved his right foot so that it touched the side of my left foot which was within my stall area," the report states.

Craig then proceeded to swipe his hand under the stall divider several times, and Karsnia noted in his report that "I could ... see Craig had a gold ring on his ring finger as his hand was on my side of the stall divider."

Karsnia then held his police identification down by the floor so that Craig could see it.

"With my left hand near the floor, I pointed towards the exit. Craig responded, 'No!' I again pointed towards the exit. Craig exited the stall with his roller bags without flushing the toilet. ... Craig said he would not go. I told Craig that he was under arrest, he had to go, and that I didn't want to make a scene. Craig then left the restroom."

In a recorded interview after his arrest, Craig "either disagreed with me or 'didn't recall' the events as they happened," the report states.

Craig stated "that he has a wide stance when going to the bathroom and that his foot may have touched mine," the report states. Craig also told the arresting officer that he reached down with his right hand to pick up a piece of paper that was on the floor.

"It should be noted that there was not a piece of paper on the bathroom floor, nor did Craig pick up a piece of paper," the arresting officer said in the report.

On Aug. 8, the day he pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct in the Minnesota court, Craig appeared via satellite at a ceremony that took place in Idaho in which former Idaho federal Judge Randy Smith was invested into his new position as a judge on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

UPDATE: Talking Points Memo has found this item on the web page of the Idaho Values Alliance, a family based group who loves Craig and his ultra conservative voting record. It needs no further explanation.

One of the tragic characteristics of the homosexual lifestyle is its emphasis on anonymous sex and multiple sexual partners. It is a little-acknowledged secret that many active homosexuals will have more than 1,000 sex partners over the course of a lifetime (the average among heterosexuals is seven – still six more than we were designed for).

This sordid fact of homosexual life surfaced yesterday in an AP article yesterday that reports on the number of arrests police have made for indecent exposure and public sex acts in the restrooms at Atlanta’s airport, the busiest in the world. The increased restroom patrols, begun to apprehend luggage thieves, instead uncovered a rash of sex crimes. Airport restrooms have become so popular that men looking for anonymous sexual trysts with other men have advertised their airport availability on Craigslist. One such ad was from a man saying he was stuck at the airport for three hours and was looking for “discreet, quick action.”

Where to start? Gays have 1000 partners and straight people only have 7? I do not even have a comeback for this utter nonsense. I do love the "6 more than we are designed for line." It made me chuckle, out loud too.

The best part of all these family groups that hate gays and passionately despise gay marriage is the fact that these same people have very little if any contact with gay people on a daily basis. Even if I hated gay marriage and I do not, it would not bother me because I never have seen any gay people get hitched before. It is not like straight people can not get married because all of the gays are taking their slots at churches. I do know one thing hetersexual people are good at: Divorce.

Having state and federal governments recognize civil unions of law abiding American citizens that love each other is not a bad thing. The rationale for civil unions is not taking away from heterosexual marriages or their rights, nor does it strike down their religions beliefs but this has always been about getting EQUAL rights for homosexual partners, not special ones.

Gay people DO NOT choose their life style either. Name me one good thing our society does for gay people? Typically, gays are ostracized from their families and loved ones. They are discriminated against, unable to get married or procreate on their own. Why would anyone look at our society and go F IT, I want to be gay. Maybe this is why all these conservative republicans are turning up in bathrooms looking to suck cock because they have been suppressing their true sexual identity. I have no clue, ask Dr Phil or Sean Hannity.

I guess I was WAY out of the loop when it comes to gay sex in airport bathrooms. According to this article, it is common in the Atlanta airport. This Idaho group gets all fired up about a personal Craigslist ad. There are freaks on Craiglist? SHOCKER! I met a drunk in a bar last night too.

UPDATE II: TPM finds this quote from Criag about the Union Station allegation.

Craig denied the man's account and said, "I am not gay and I have never been in a restroom in Union Station having sex with anybody.

"There's a very clear bottom line here," Craig said. "I don't do that kind of thing. I am not gay, and I never have been."

Once again, I repeat being GAY is not the issue nor is exchanging BJs in disgusting public restrooms. These public officials have supported discriminatory policies against gays but all have been busted engaging in the same type of behavior they are railing against.

The US Open Tennis tournament starts today in Flushing Meadows and it is one my favorite sporting events. Another classic 2007 Federer/Nadal final is expected but a few other players(Roddick,Djokovic, Blake, Hewit)could take one of them out.

The Lost Year

My man Dan Froomkin could not have summed it up any better in his column today.

A new national intelligence estimate concludes that President Bush's troop surge shows no signs of accomplishing its goal of encouraging political reconciliation in Iraq.

An influential Republican senator and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff now favor a troop withdrawal. (Sen. John Warner wants Bush to demonstrate that the commitment in Iraq is not open-ended; Marine Gen. Peter Pace argues that the military simply can't keep this up.)

These and other developments take us back in some ways to December 2006. It was then, in the wake of the November election and the report of the Iraq Study Group, that the debate in Washington finally appeared to be shifting away from how to achieve victory and toward how to cut our losses.

Instead, Bush ignored public sentiment, overruled his military commanders and opted for escalation.

And now it appears that the only thing the surge has bought him is time -- nine months or maybe a year, during which he was able to postpone the inevitable.

What has that year cost America -- and Iraq? For starters, a year in Iraq translates to over 1,000 more dead American soldiers; over $100 billion more in direct appropriations; over 15,000 more dead Iraqi civilians; and countless grievous wounds and shattered families both here and there.

In light of the costs, having bought a year of time may not seem like much of an accomplishment. But if Bush can drag things out another year or so, he can wash his hands of the whole mess and leave it for his successor to deal with.

I Cut Myself

Gruesome pictures of an alleged fight between Amy Winehouse and husband Blake recently hit the Internet. According to Amy, there was no fight and Blake actually saved her life. Amy defended her husband in text messages sent to celeb gossip peddler Perez Hilton.

Blake is the best man in the world. We would never ever harm each other... I was cutting myself after he found me in our room about to do drugs with a call girl and rightly said I wasn't good enough for him. I lost it and he saved my life.

I am glad she cleared that up. WOW.

This Rolling Stone cover story a few months ago pretty much predicted some drug induced crazy event was bound to happen between these two.

Sucks Winehouse is such a junkie because she is an amazing singer. And the paparazzi thinks Lohan has a problem? Winehouse is Kurt Kobain, circa female/2007. I guess that would make Blake, Courtney Love. Perfect.

City Boyz Inc. Part 2

My original post on the City Boyz Inc. was picked up by a few blogs out there. Major Props to everyone for the coverage. I felt the need to update the story since new developments have taken place.

Another Day in the Life of the C B I.

Two days after my CBI post, The Des Moines Register, Iowa's largest newspaper, followed up by printing the CBI's pictures from Dominique Douglas's(Dougie Fresh) Facebook page. This could this be the first time a paper has actually published pictures that originated from a social network site in their print edition.

The MSM media is ALWAYS late to the party.
See Mike Vick and ProFootball Talk, See US Attorney firing scandal and Talking Points Memo

I am sure this action by the Register could be debated in a J school ethics class somewhere. Then again, Friday afternoon class? That is a good one. Right now, students are still recovering from their Thursday night booze back to class booze binges and realizing that the only way to cure their hangovers will be to hit up a bar for some FACing. (Friday After Class)

Damn, I really miss cheap beer and dumb hot coeds.

Back to the CBI, the Iowa Athletic Department announced they would investigate the pictures. Some Hack writer named Brian Morelli from the Iowa City Press Citizen newspaper (ICPC) dug up dirt on other Hawkeye football players Facebook profiles.

For those of you not informed on Iowa City, the student newspaper, The Daily Iowan, blows the Press Citizen out of the water. Its not even close and the ICPC is probably the 3rd most read paper in the city, behind the CR Gazette.

Mr. Morelli's invigorating tabloid research turned up, get this, are you ready? Brace yourself, College kids in pictures with alcohol! S T F U!

Two photos show players drinking shots of alcohol. Another photo shows a player "shotgunning" a beer. In another, a player and a group of friends are posing in front of someone vomiting. One shows a player posing next to a table of liquor bottles. Two photos show players holding someone up during a keg stand. Another photo shows a player sitting beside four pitchers of beer.

Shotgun? NO WAY! Suspend that dude immediately! Beer Bong is the way to go. If only John Kerry could go back in time. Since there will not be one fan drinking alcohol outside a college football game this fall (YEAH RIGHT!), no players age 18-20 are allowed to EVER drink any alcohol. They can vote or serve in Iraq but no one can drink a PBR.

All right, can you handle one more ground breaking nugget from this potential Pulitzer winning scribe ? Cool. The players Facebook profiles contained these immature tasteless quotes.

"She can't say no if her mouth is taped shut. If you send me back to jail, I'll rape your family."

Football players act like meat heads? Really. I see no real harm in college kids putting dumb quotes on their Myspace and Facebook pages at futile attempts at humor. Lighten Up.

Mr. Morelli not only soiled the literary world with more trash journalism, he also tried to bust the players by sending the pictures he found to the Iowa's AD department. I echo the sentiments of the Hawkeye Compulsion. F U DUDE!

Head Coach Kirk Ferentz responded to the arrests in an interview on ESPN's college football live. Basically Ferentz wants the legal things to play out and the players have told him a different version than what the authorities have charged. Hawkeye Compulsion reads between the lines of Kirk's words to decipher that Ferentz does not believe them but wants a court to decide.

I have no idea what the 2 accused players' version could be other than the cards were not stolen and they were authorized to purchase the merchandise. It is a possibility but 2K seems pretty excessive for some dorm nerd to allow a few ballers to charge up some new gear. Lucky for them that this is not Guantanamo and they will have their day in court.

An article in the Cedar Rapids Gazette sheds lights into the fact that most of these type of fraud cases have a low conviction rate. This is good legal news for the 2 members of the CBI.

Spanning a six-year period ending in 2006, 39 people were charged with the same crime, but only two were convicted of it. Almost half - 19 - were acquitted or had charges dismissed, and nine were convicted of lesser charges. The other nine were not convicted or tried for the crime.

Dougie Fresh left a comment about his recent arrest on his facebook page before it was shut down.

"Domo Cbi Dougis realizing who his fam is n who's not, its been speculations going around n alot people dont no nothing....but its cool he no he gon b str8..."

I am reassured 2 no that Domo Cbi Dougis gon 2 b str8. Enough Said. Next Saturday can not come fast enough. GO HAWKS!

UPDATE: Press Conference from Today. Ferentz wishes his players looked at their game plans as much as facebook. Some player met his fiance on Facebook and still no word if she was first poked. Mr. Morelli can you investigate?

I heart the 90s

One of the main focuses of this blog was to highlight the pop culture of my favorite decade, the 90s! I heart the 90s will become a regular feature.

The historic disaster known as Iraq has distracted me from this endeavor. SEND OUR TROOPS HOME PLEASE! The SURGE IS NOT "WORKING," and REPEAT, WE WILL NEVER, EVER "WIN" AN OCCUPATION! All the PR Spin is not going to change anything or keep the Sunnis/Shiites from blowing each other up. This is all about protecting GBush's legacy/ego and kicking the can down the road until January 09. This is not about what is right for our country/military.

Real leadership is recognizing when you made a mistake, cut your losses and move on. Bush should stop throwing good money after bad. Bush and Cheney are like 2 compulsive gamblers at a casino, constantly going to the ATM, thinking their luck will turn on the next hand or roulette spin. This type of behavior never works out well for gamblers. Too bad with our foreign policy, the money is ours, the tax payers, and the casino chips are American lives.

Sorry for the caps and rant, I feel much better. It had to come out, just like about four of my bullets need to fire away. WINK, WINK, Miss So Bell.

Back to the 1990s. The 90s brought us cheesy dance music, great movies and TV shows(Seinfeld, Pulp Fiction, etc.), and mainstream birth of the Internet/email. The best decade EVER fueled the explosion of the Hip Hop and Alternative/Grunge scenes. No more sappy love ballads of burnt out 80s big hair bands.

Doc Martens, Capri/Zubaz pants, Super Nintendo, High Fade Haircuts, Starter Jackets, Overalls, Wearing hats with the tags still on them and the Fanny Pack. I have plenty more 90's cultural references but I need to save them for later.

The 90s slang included: "Fresh, Tight, Wicked, Who's Your Daddy, Chill Out, and
every teenage girls favorite, "Whatever." I like using, "the Shit or the Shiznit."

Got it, Mofo? I love NeoCons, NOT!

America to the Resuce

My main man Jon Stewart brings it again in this video. He sums up America's historic WAY Fd up policy in the middle east. The so called foreign policy experts sure know how to continually contradict themselves in messed up policy decisions. OVER and OVER. It makes you wonder why the Arabs hate the West/America?

He forgot to mentioned that the CIA took over Iran's democratically elected government in 1953 and put in its place a monarchy ruled by the Shah.

In 1979, the Iranian Revolution over threw The Shah led by Ayatollah Khomeini. The new Iranian government took 55 American hostages. The 444 day crisis not only put a dagger in to any chance of a Jimmy Carter 2nd term presidency but the Iranian/US relations have been frost bite chilly ever since. Pretty much non existent. America's support of Saddam's Iraq over Iran in their 8 year war did not help things either.

My favorite part is the subtle dig about the 9/11 Saudi hijackers. 15 of the 19 hijackers responsible for the 9/11 attacks were Saudis. This fact gets overlooked by the media time and time again.

Almost half of the attacks US troops currently face in Iraq are caused by Saudis entering Iraq. Saudis make up the majority of the suicide bombers as well.

When was the last time that you heard the Bush Administration mention that? It is always Al Queda and Iran. Al Queda and Iran, repeat rinse.

Where is the pressure on the Saudi government to crack down on their own citizens killing US troops? I guess the pressure is called giving them 20 billion dollars in weapons. Watch and Enjoy.

Sports Link Whore

Brevity or sobriety have never been strong points of mine. Here are some links that have been rattling around in Mac G's World.

• NBA and NHL could soon be located a team in Vegas as plans for building 20k seat arena are moving award. I was always told that big time Casinos did not want sports teams in Vegas because it would take time away from people gambling. I hear they give free drinks away on purpose(Awesome), pump oxygen into casinos floors and bust people for counting cards. I love a good casino conspiracy story as it shifts blame away from my shitty luck and gambling ability. (100% Injury Rate)

• One of the few things that the 4 Letter does right is cover college football. I think ESPN's 25 hour college preview show is a move in the wrong direction. Its about as dumb as having 3 channels dedicated to one game with different camera angles as they did with Miami/FSU last season or 2 seasons ago. I forget because I am still dizzy just thinking about it. (Foul Balls)
• This could not be a blog without ripping the 4 Letter. Did you happen to catch the ESPN fantasy draft? More stupid programming I could care less about but at least be able to draft right. Shaun Alexander at 13? Moronic. He slides to 5-8 at WORST! Do not look for advice for these guys about anything in fantasy. They are just jumping on the popularity wave and have absolutely no clue what they are talking about. Awful Announcing and Winning the Turnover Battle have break downs of the draft debacle.

• The Little League World Series has been growing on me over the past week. I love when the kids get so amped instantly and in a flash will be super sad over one play. You rarely get either of those emotions in sports. As a sports fan, I am just either super pissed my team lost or relieved they did not choke the game away. It is very rarely that I am really happy or sad. Aside from ogling for sideline announcer eye candy, my favorite part has been the pregame introductions where the kids state their favorite MLB player. AROD, Jeter, Ichiro, Vlad, Pujols, Manny, Ortiz were the players most frequently mentioned, regardless of where the team was located. Even the Maryland team had more kids listing Yankees as their favorite players over the Orioles. Thanks Angelos. Creating a generation of Yankee fans in your own back yard! I did notice the tremendous lack of minority players on the US teams. Only 1.5 out of 100 players. Can I get Gary Shefflied's thoughts on this? (Say Hey Blog)
  
• Obviously my sports fan emotions of anger combined with benevolence displays the total lack of enjoyment one will get following the teams that I do. One of my favorite baseball teams, the Baltimore Orioles(Thanks Dad for the Brainwash!) just gave up 30 runs last night! Most runs allowed in 107 FN Years! I turned on the game just in time to see a 3 run shot to make it 30-3.This was the first game of a double header and they lost 9-7 in the nightcap. 39 runs in 2 games and swept by the lowly Rangers. Quick name me 5 Rangers? Exactly. This was the first official game for the Orioles' manager Dave Trembley, who just had his interim tag removed by signing for the 2008 season. Another crazy note is in the 30 run debacle, the Rangers pitcher recorded a save because he finished the last 3 innings. Complete Orioles Coverage of the Futility.

Breaking News: Maria Sharapova is NOT a Dead Frog in the Sack and Adam Levine is Still a Raging DBAG

I was scanning one my favorite sports blog yesterday 100% Injury Rate (actually pimping my CBInc post too, thanks dude!) and I almost cried when reading this headline:

"Maria is not good in bed."

Noooooooooooooooooooooo WAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY!!

Not my Maria!! NO NO NO!

A bolt of SHUT THE F^&$ UP went through my body. It was like I was an uber religious person and someone had proof that the bible was made up. Or I had the same feeling that a dog loving Mike Vick Falcons fan must have had when they read Monday's "Vick to plead guilty" headline. I do not know. I was too distraught to come up with any more weak A$ metaphors. Not my Maria. NO Fn WAY!

Here are the reported quotes from Maria's ex-lover, Maroon 5 front man, Adam Levine.

"She wouldn't make any noise during sex," Levine said. "I can't tell you how disappointed I was. I really thought, like a lot of guys, that she'd be the loud screaming type. But instead, she just lay there like a dead frog. She even got angry if I started to moan, said it 'ruined her concentration.' It was so disillusioning that I went on Paxil for a month afterwards. Really, it was much more of a shock than when I found out there's no such thing as the Easter Bunny."

All of my fantasy dreams had just been erased. Similar to the time I had Best Buy fix my computer screen on my laptop and they ended up erasing my hard drive. I still boycott them and Circuit City gets most of my techie coin.

Anyway, not only is my Maria screwing some B-rate garage band loser, she now sucks in bed? Why smear frogs and the Easter Bunny too? Leave them out of it. Levine is going to pay for his vicious sour grapes!

I was ready to pull out some GOP Dick Cheney/Karl Rove style GOP attack on Levine's credibility. When you do not like the facts of the message, just attack the messenger and SMEAR AWAY BABY! CIA Agent what? Handicap Veteran Senator Who?

Levine was going to pay. As soon as could I type Levine and douche into a google search, I came upon this site.

It turns out the Russian website did a parody on Levine's quotes and it is not true!!

I was so willing to trust US magazine on this one and I guess the "I went on Paxil" line was a dead give away.

However, Levine is still a dbag and his band sucks. Besides his shitty radio music, some 11 year old playing in the LLWS said Maroon 5 was his favorite band. Enough said. Levine has the Nickelodeon demographic down pat!

As for the Maria scare, WHEW!! Please resume Maria fantasies and afternoon Spank Bank deposits in 1.....2.......3.

City Boyz Inc.

(Anthony Bowman and Arvell Nelson)

I had an awful case of the Mondays after news broke that 2 players of my beloved Iowa Hawkeyes, Freshman All American WR Dominique Douglas and backup WR Anthony Bowman, had been arrested and suspended from the football team. These morons are accused of using a stolen credit card from a resident in their dorm to purchase merchandise online from stores Hat World, C&E Fashions and Sneakerhead .

The 2 thousand dollars worth of goods were then shipped to an address in Detroit, the hometown of both players. The illegal activity was traced back to them because they had made the purchases from University computer labs, which they had logged into with their individual IDs to use. UNBELIEVABLE! How stupid are these guys?

Of course the story does not stop there. Pictures from Douglas's Facebook profile soon circulated to online Hawkeye fan message boards and they clearly did not assist in their potential PR/legal battles whatsoever. The pictures showed the 2 accused, along with other teammates, QB Arvell Nelson and WR James Cleveland, flashing large amounts of "straight cash homey" around and empty bottles of vodka. These players are part of a self titled group called, "City Boys Inc."

Unsubstantiated rumors started to fly that other members of the CBI would be implicated in the scandal and could face suspension. This had the possibility to wipe out a majority of the Hawkeyes' WR core and the promising freshman backup QB(Nelson).

My Hawkeye sources have confirmed that no more players will be charged in the crime. Authorities are satisfied with charging just the 2 main orchestrator's and not CBI members, who might have ended up with a 30 dollar green camo Yankees lid!

Other players in the CBI have still been practicing and might face internal discipline by the coaching staff. This is all speculation but after you see these photos, I am sure there has to be some guilt by CBI association from Coach Ferentz.

My thoughts on this:

• 2 thousand dollars? That's it? I could have reached into the depths on my Hawkeye alumni connections to come up with that scratch in no time. Especially for the one of the team's biggest offensive play makers in Dougie Fresh(Douglas). Ohio State and USC players must be laughing at this story.
  
• Facebook and Myspace are pure evil. I have recently read about employers checking these social sites before hiring potential employees and a teacher not getting her education degree because of a photo she had on her myspace page. DO NOT put incriminating photos on the Internet period. College athletes at a major school flashing money around is going to naturally raise suspicion. I believe the drinking age is BS and we have far greater problems in this country/world than 19-20 year olds drinking alcohol (Iraq war comes to mind) but it is still illegal and do not advertise it on the web!!
  
• This column on Hawkeye Nation argues for a second chance under the "boys will be boys" argument. I agree that young adults make dumb decisions in college, usually under the influence on alcohol. I made too many to count. These guys do deserve second chance at furthering their education and possibly allowing them to play college football again. However, if they plead guilty to these charges, their football careers at the University of Iowa should be over. It sets a bad precedent to the other players on the team and this type of behavior has to have severe consequences. Have fun playing Juco and MAC ball!
  
• I wanted to purchase a 88 Douglas jersey and he was one of the few players that I was excited to watch this upcoming season. Douglas now becomes the 4th expected contributing player for the 2007 season that has recently left the program.(Bain, Wilson, Greene). Has Iowa football now become Iowa Hoops with their usual player exodus? Can I still blame Super Steve Alford?
  

• Hawk fans, See Ya at Solider field for the opener. In heaven, I am going to need a keg of beer!

UPDATE: Iowa's AD, Garty Barta, is going to investigate these photos to see if they have been photoshopped or not. Um, OK? They were taken directly from Dougie Fresh's Facebook profile and posted on to this fan message board from one of his facebook "friends." The message thread has since been deleted by the administrators of the board. Its back up!

Are people in power really this out of touch with simple computer programs? The photos below are obviously members of the City Boyz Inc. No one has doctored them.
