Ohio State fans everywhere, including myself, are trying our best to forget Terrelle Pryor. He never played for Ohio State. Those 3 years just did not exist. And while I admit that we enabled this douche, the way it all ended just proved that he was never a true Buckeye.

One year later, with Urban Meyer totally revitalizing a disappointing 2011 season on and off the field - and with the fans ready to move on from the tattogate fiasco – why wouldn’t Terrelle Pryor open his stupid f**king mouth to try and get back in the news?

In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Pryor tries to get some sympathy from anyone willing to listen saying he sold his Ohio State gear/trophies to help his Mom and sister pay the bills. It’s the same story we heard a year ago.

Only this time, no one gives a piss.

No one cares about TP. No one cares that he will probably be out of the NFL in two years. And without a doubt, no one, especially Ohio State fans, will ever feel sorry for him.

So TP, please, do us all a favor and just shut up and try to milk your 3rd string job as long as possible.

Because If he thinks that he will ever be able to come back to his Ohio State family post NFL career, he will be sadly mistaken.

Of all of the awesome catches Calvin Johnson has made over the years, this is the best EA Sports could come up with?

A more exciting and athletic wide receiver you will not find. Also, he doesn’t really have a confident look on his face. He’s in the middle of focusing on a ball that we assume is headed his way.

In reality he was probably posing in a photo studio and a ball was not being thrown to him.

On another note, Calvin Johnson is a Madden cover boy who I actually root for. I like his style and his character. Let’s hope he can, once and for all, kill the curse.

Peyton Hillis sure as hell didn’t.

Here are just a few pics of Calvin doin’ his thang. Any one of these pics would have been better than the one they chose.

Phelps will more than likely retire after the 2012 Olympics in London. And at 27 years old, Phelps has the chance live every spoiled Generation Y dude’s dream out there. To have money, Olympic fame, and just about anything else you want right at your fingertips is something movies are made of.

Now, usually these types of movies end with the star athlete dying at a young age of a drug overdose. And not that I am trying to predict Phelps’ future, but if 10 years from now he has his own True Hollywood Story: Life Of An Olympic Junkie, it wouldn’t surprise me.

We’ve all seen the pictures. Dude likes to party, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Anyone that says otherwise is just jealous that they can’t swim 10 miles stoned.  But when you retire before 30, it gives you a lot of free time to get bored (insert Heroin).

Hopefully I am wrong. Hopefully once the Olympics end, Phelps will find inner peace and be able to travel the world with loved ones, spreading joy to homeless orphans in Africa. I just don’t see it.

Go America!

The former Cardinals Manager, who still stays in touch with Pujols, said the new contract and scenery have been a distraction for El Hombre. Which shouldn’t be much of a huge f**king surprise. Anytime that much pressure is put on anyone, it’s nearly impossible to live up to expectations.

It’s the same thing for Reds 1B Joey Votto. He isn’t exactly struggling this year, but really, no one is worth $200 million. Unless you can hit a home run, make me a sandwich, and jerk me off all at the same time, as the owner of a MLB franchise you cannot be worth $200 million. Period.

But what we all need to remember, is that Pujols is still the best hitter in baseball. If La Russa is right (which you have to assume he is) he just needs some time to adjust. So everyone needs to get off his dick.

Seau was a linebacking legend. One of the best of his time. RIP, Mr. Seau.

This was originally an Animated GIF that I saw on Hip Hop Wired, but the GIF kept loading slowly so I was like “F**k this, I’m gonna load it on YouTube so people on JOCKpost can actually see this s**t.”

It’s actually pretty god damn funny.

Minnesota Vikings practice squad RB Caleb King has been accused of beating the living s**t out of a guy for comparing him to Eddie Murphy at a birthday party. I’ve got to give it to King. He doesn’t look like Eddie Murphy at all. If I were Caleb King, I probably would have beat the s**t out of the guy too.

But I’m an asshole.

According to a tweet posted by Paul Blume:

#vikings RB Caleb King attorney just called me. Says King “threw no punches” & “showed amazing restraint” during incident. Promises details.

And the KSTP sports guy, Chris Long, tweeted:

Family says it was Eddie Murphy. Seriously. RT@JohnSharkman: Who was the celebrity whom Caleb King was being compared and teased about?

This weekend is supposed to be about the draft. Fortunately for Goodell these recent embarrassing arrests happened during one of the most exciting drafts in NFL history. No one has seemed to notice or care one bit that two players have been arrested and don’t forget about one even crazier arrest of Vontae and Vernon Davis’ brother.

Of course you can barely call Caleb King a Viking. Practice squad/preseason grunt is probably a more apt description.

One commenter from the Washington Post took King’s side saying:

This story is completely false. Caleb was called a number of racial slurs. The young man who was injured was extremely intoxicated & fell over a chair. Caleb never touched him & the things he is being accused of are complely false. This young man caused his own injuries by being prejudice & by using hateful slurs

The man who was beaten says that King hit him repeatedly in the head and face. The whole story sounds really bad.

From the AP:

The victim was a 22-year-old from Coon Rapids. King is accused of punching him repeatedly and throwing him headfirst to the ground. The man was hospitalized in serious condition with skull and facial fractures, as well as with cuts that required more than 50 stitches to close, Sheriff’s Cmdr. Paul Sommer said.

The man “may have a very serious brain injury,” Sommer said.

“I just was made aware of it today and I don’t have any further comment on it right now,” Vikings GM Rick Spielman said. “We’re still collecting and gathering information, but we are aware of the situation.”

Don’t call me Eddie Murphy, bro.

We all know Vernon Davis gets a little more emotional than most football players.

But no one could have guessed that his 19-year-old brother could be capable of this.

Michael Davis, brother of NFL players Vernon and Vontae Davis, has been arrested in Washington DC (Petworth to be precise). He is accused of severely injuring a 19-year-old woman by hitting her over the head with a hammer.

According to reports, he was seen dropping a backpack that contained a claw hammer while running from the cops.

It seems the woman attacked for no reason. The police also claim Davis is under investigation for three other similar attacks in the neighborhood. One of the three victims, 66-year-old Gary Dederichs, died.

Vernon Davis tweeted last night:

Just got a disturbing call from back home in washington dc. A good day gone bad! Hopefully he wasn’t involved!

When he says “hopefully”, that scares me a little bit. He doesn’t really sound that surprised.

From CBS 4 Denver:

Police heard a cry for help at about 9 p.m. and found the victim on the ground with a serious head injury. Officers said they spotted Davis running away with a duffel bag and inside they found a claw hammer. Officers believed this was the weapon used in the attack on the woman.

So. F**ked. Up.

The picture below is a picture of Davis getting arrested, courtesy of PrinceOfPetworth.com.

All I gotta say is, give me some of that s**t he was smoking — because I want to feel this happy AFTER getting a DWI.

I know none of you guys care about this head stomping loser, but this mugshot is too classic not to share.

Considering the fact that the man who signs his paychecks is Jewish, it’s quite possible the Tigers aren’t done cutting people just yet.

Delmon Young was arrested in New York for allegedly starting a fight and yelling anti-Semetic epithets.

A police source told the New York Post that Young was “highly intoxicated.” Shocker.

Young faces a aggravated harassment hate crime charge, which is a misdemeanor. It’s going to be way more damaging to his career than his freedom.

From the NY Post:

“A panhandler wearing a yamulke approached a group of people to ask for some change — and that’s when Young, who was nearby, started shouting, “F–king Jews! F–king Jews!”

That’s when another man and a group of his friends got into a confrontation with Young at about 2:40 a.m. that quickly turned physical along Sixth Avenue, law enforcement sources said.

Any Twins fans who were reeling from his departure last year are surely relieved they washed their hands of him now.

Please don’t anyone forget this is the same asshole that threw his bat at an umpire six years ago. It wouldn’t bother me at all to see him blackballed from the game, Barry Bonds style.

This is hands down the best photo from the 2012 NFL Draft.

This could be love.

It’s finally draft week!  Strap in and get your popcorn ready Thursday night, because this thing could get wild.

If you’re like me and believe everything you read on Twitter, every single pick in the first round is on the block, with the exception of Luck and Griffin.

Let’s take a look at our final NFL mock draft of 2012…

1. Indianapolis Colts - Andrew Luck.  QB, Stanford.  Lost in all the RG3 combine hype was the athleticism of Andrew Luck.  A 4.6 40-yard dash, 36” vertical jump and 10’4” broad jump would have been the talk of the town if it weren’t for the charismatic track star from Baylor.  Luck is the quintessential franchise quarterback prospect and will go off the board first overall.

2. Washington Redskins – Robert Griffin III.  QB, Baylor.  The argument that RG3’s upside is enough to warrant a selection over Andrew Luck is a very good one.  In Narnia.  With that said, Griffin’s combine speed and athleticism were unmatched but the tape shows that this kid is so much more.  RG3 can fit the ball in tight spots with a big arm, and is a magician with his feet.  The price was be high…  but the juice is definitely worth the squeeze.

3. Minnesota Vikings – Matt Kalil.  OT, USC.  Kalil dominated the Pac-12 conference this year and at 6’7”, 305 pounds has the build to be a franchise left tackle in the NFL for the next decade.  If the Vikings expect Christian Ponder to produce, they need to protect him… and no better way than to secure this big hog.

4. Cleveland Browns – Morris Claiborne.  CB, LSU.  The Cleveland Browns offense was monumentally bad last year, which is why this pick may come as a surprise to some.  I believe the Browns will go with the best player available on their board, and in this case it is Mo Claiborne.  Pairing Claiborne with Joe Haden gives the Browns a formidable secondary in an ever-evolving pass happy league.

5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Trent Richardson.  RB, Alabama.  I know the trend is to avoid running backs early… but Richardson is the exception to the rule.  Richardson is powerful and fast.  Possesses an explosive first burst with great vision.  Greg Schiano finds his bell-cow in Richardson, who can step in right away as a 3-down running back and produce.

6. St. Louis Rams - Justin Blackmon.  WR, OK State.  Not a bad day for the Rams… drop 4 spots, pick up a hand full of extra picks, and snag the guy you wanted to begin with.  Blackmon is a compact big man, if that makes sense.  He has a thick frame with hands as big as catchers mitts.  Competitive and aggressive, Blackmon will be a nice weapon for Sam Bradford moving forward.

7. Jacksonville Jaguars - Stephon Gilmore.  CB, South Carolina.  I expect this pick to be traded, but should the Jags stay put look for them to address the corner position with a guy that their General Manager values higher than Mo Claiborne.

8. Miami Dolphins - Ryan Tannehill.  QB, Texas A&M.  Tannehill is a natural athlete with only 19 college starts under his belt.  With that said, he potential is very intriguing.  Not nearly as “game-ready” as the first two signal callers off the board, but will fit in nicely in South Beach.

9. Carolina Panthers - Fletcher Cox.  DT, Mississippi St.  DT should be the selection, and Cox has risen to the top of this years class.  You just can’t keep Cox down, and nobody goes harder than Cox.  Get it?

10. Buffalo Bills - Michael Floyd.  WR, Notre Dame.  The Bills made a splash with the Mario Williams signing, and will look to Floyd to help bolster the offense.  As a big and physical pass catcher, Floyd will be a fantastic compliment to Stevie Johnson and will contribute from day 1.

11. Kansas City Chiefs - David DeCastro.  OG, Stanford.  DeCastro displayed strength, athleticism and smarts at the combine making this an easy pick for Romeo Crennel and his crew.  6’5”, 310 pounds with a mean streak, DeCastro should help Jamaal Charles and Peyton Hillis right away.

12. Seattle Seahawks - Luke Kuechly.  LB, BC.  Showed up big time at the combine, and the tape shows this kid is an instinctive player.  Kuechly isn’t a physical freak, but he is a football player and will fill a need in Seattle.

13. Arizona Cardinals - Riley Reiff.  OT, Iowa.  While there are many directions that the Cards can go at 13, I see them taking Rieff, a skilled tackle who will contribute immediately and extensively.  A former tight end, Reiff has athleticism to spare and should be able to keep up with those NFC pass rushers.

14. Dallas Cowboys - Mark Barron.  Safety,  Alabama.  Barron is the best safety in the draft, and fills a need for the Cowboys who’s secondary has been suspect to say the least.

15. Philadelphia Eagles - Quinton Coples.  DE, UNC.  The Iggles will snag the outside pass rusher that they’ve been looking for with this Tarheel athlete.  Coples impressed at the Senior Bowl, and will ride that momentum to a top fifteen selection due to his uncanny ability to get to the quarterback.

16. New York Jets – Melvin Ingram.  DE, South Carolina.  Ingram is a pass rusher, plain and simple.  His aggressive style of play will fit in well with the Jets, and continue to make that defense one of the most feared in the league.

17. Cincinnati Bengals - Dre’ Kirkpatrick.  CB, Alabama.  A 6’ corner with elite speed and character issues falling to number 17?  Sign Marvin Lewis up.  Kirkpatrick may have some off the field problems, but a proven SEC corner is a tough thing to pass on when you need some serious help in the secondary.

18. San Diego Chargers – Cordy Glenn.  OG, Georgia.  Cordy Glenn is a mountain of a man, but deceptively quick.  Protecting Phillip Rivers needs to be priority number 1, and Glenn helps the cause.

19. Chicago Bears - Michael Bockers.  DT, LSU.  Large bodied but deceptively quick, Bockers can plug up the run while also getting to the quarterback.  Even more importantly, Bockers will eat blockers allowing Brian Urlacher to do what he does best.  The Bears offensive line is monumentally bad, but Bockers is too good to pass up at this point.

20. Tennessee Titans - Whitney Mercilus.  DE, Illinois.  The Titans finished next-to-last in the NFL last year in sacks, so Marcilus will be a practical pick.  The kid is big at 6’4”, 270 pounds but has an extremely quick first step and should fit nicely in the Titans scheme.

21. Cincinnati Bengals - Lamar Miller.  RB, Miami.  Truth be told, this is my guy.  I am very high on Lamar Miller, and feel the Bengals get an elite Pro-Bowl caliber running back at 21.  Elite straight line speed, Miller will be a big play threat and could be slotted to start right away in Cincinnati if Cedric Benson is no longer around.

22. Cleveland Browns - Mike Adams.  OT, Ohio State.  Despite a poor combine, Mike Adams has the potential to be a dominant offensive lineman in the NFL.  The right side of the Browns line is awful, so snagging this 6’8” 320 pound monster to sure up the right side seems like a no brainer.

23. Detroit Lions - Jonathan Martin.  OT, Stanford.  Though Martin has been free falling post combine, I see the Lions scooping him up at 23 to help protect their young mega-star quarterback.

24. Pittsburgh Steelers - Dont’a Hightower.  LB, Alabama.  The Steelers could address the inside linebacker spot, and Hightower fits the bill.  At 6’4” and 260 pounds, Hightower should be able to hold up against the run, but has the feet and balance to drop into coverage when asked.

25. Denver Broncos - Dontari Poe.  DT, Memphis.  Adding a physical freak like Poe makes the Bronco defense downright scary.  Poe crashed the scene in Indianapolis with one of the most impressive combines in recent years.  With some questions surrounding Penn State DT Devin Still, don’t be surprised to see Poe come off the board before him.

26. Houston Texans - Stephen Hill.  WR, Ga Tech.  Hill showed up big time at the combine, and is rewarded with a first round selection.  The 6’5” wideout with blazing speed gives Matt Schaub a vertical threat to pair with Andre Johnson, which should open up the offense even further.

27. New England Patriots - Devon Still.  DT, Penn State.  Offense isn’t the problem in New England.  Devon Still has the talent to make an impact on day 1, and will fit in nicely with the Patriots defense.  The 6’5” Still brings a big, physically impressive presence to the middle of the Pats’ front seven who should occupy multiple blockers.

28. Green Bay Packers - Nick Perry.  DE, USC.  The Pac-12 leader in sacks gets to move from beautiful Southern California to the frozen tundra.  Lucky dog.

29. Baltimore Ravens – Peter Konz.  C, Wisconsin.  Konz, the best center in the class, will be asked to block for one of the best running backs in the league, and that is a task he will be up for.

30. San Francisco 49ers - Coby Fleener.  TE, Stanford.  Even with Vernon Davis at the TE position, Fleener should be the pick here.  Fleener stands 6’6” and will add another dimension to this offense.

31. New England Patriots - Andre Branch.  DE, Clemson.  Addressing the defense with both picks in the first round, Branch gives the Pats a versatile defensive player that can play up or down.  Tremendous potential here, and who better to bring it to the surface than the Hoodie.

32. New York Giants - Doug Martin.  RB, Boise State.  We’ve all heard the Ray Rice comparisons, and that has to do with his size.  Martin doesn’t have the home run speed that Lamar Miller has, but will be a fine NFL back and a perfect compliment for the Giants.

I may regret saying this given the nature of the team’s past but the Cleveland Browns CANNOT screw up this draft.  Their first three picks are virtually fool-proof, regardless of the direction that they decide to go.  Don’t believe me?  Read on…

Pick four is an ideal spot for the Browns.  They missed out on Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin, but there are four players that the Cleveland brass can select here that instantly makes them noticeably better.  Those players are, in the order of which I would like them to be targeted..

A- Trent Richardson.

B- Justin Blackmon.

C- Matt Kalil

D- Mo Claiborne.

Kalil will likely go off the board to Minnesota at #3, leaving Cleveland three pro-bowl caliber players that even they couldn’t miss on. 

I put Richardson ahead of the other two because of the gap in perceived talent between he and the next best running back.  Richardson is head and shoulders better than the next best runner, while Michael Floyd has the size and the skill set to be mentioned in the same breath as Blackmon.

While I do have the Browns selecting Claiborne in my final mock draft (Coming Soon!), offense should be the pick here.  Reports have surfaced that Cleveland Browns legend Jim Brown will be announcing the fourth overall pick, and what a treat it would be to watch the last great Cleveland runner pass the torch to the next great one.

Pick twenty two comes next… or so you may think.  If I am Tom Heckert and Mike Holmgren, I am burning up the phones to everyone in the range of pick 9-15 to package pick #22 and some late round ammo that was acquired in the Julio Jones trade to move up and take Michael Floyd.  Pipe dream?  Perhaps.  But worth a shot.

Should Cleveland stay at twenty two, this pick is a virtual can’t-miss as well.  With so many holes to fill, the Browns will have their choice of a hand full of very solid offensive linemen or a duo of high up-side wide outs… two positions that are BEGGING for an upgrade in Cleveland.  Assuming Trent Richardson is the pick at 4, here are the players that I would like the Browns to target:

A- Offensive tackle Riley Reiff or Jonathan Martin

B- Offensive guard Cordy Glenn

C- Wide receiver Stephen Hill or Kendall Wright

Cleveland front office personnel has been quoted as saying that they will not select offensive players with their first three picks.  Unless they draft Mo Claiborne 4th overall, I call bulls**t.

This offense was as pathetic as any I’ve seen in all my years watching football.  Pick 37 addresses whatever offensive need (RB, WR, or OL) that has been missed thus far.  Look for the Browns to target these players to round our their need-trio…

A- Running back David Wilson or Doug Martin

B- Wide receiver Alshon Jeffery or Ruben Randall

C- Offensive tackle Bobby Massie

Three glaring needs.  Three picks in the top 37.  Three new starters.  It almost seems too easy.

If the Cleveland Browns walk away from the 2012 NFL draft unsatisfied, Mike Holmgren has nobody to blame but himself.  This blueprint provides the franchise impact players in three positions of need. 

It would take an absolute fool to screw up this draft.

Either that, or Ryan Tannehill.

You’ve got to admit, the Flyers-Penguins series was exciting as hell. Even though it was not really a close series, the unprecedented amount of goals scored kept things exciting for a casual fan like myself. With as antiseptic as things have become in pro sports, it’s nice to see this in-state rivalry have a little bite to it.

Flyers superstar Claude Giroux acted like he was going to throw some chicks (Penguins fans) a puck during practice, but he was all like “bitch, please.”

[h/t imgur]

OK, so he didn’t say that publicly. But you can damn well be sure that’s what he tells his friends. What he actually thinks is probably a completely different matter.

If the Nets were Burger King, he would be blocking this move with all of his girth. But he’s a Mets fan, so he’s used to losing. And naturally he has to act like a tough guy doing it.

It’s a little surprising that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie (nice parents, by the way) took it this far. In a video posted to his YouTube page, he speaks of New Jersey like it’s South Beach:

“I’m not going to be in the business of begging people to stay here. That’s one of the most beautiful arenas in America that they’ve had a chance to play in. It’s in one of the country’s most vibrant cities.”

Really, Chris? Vibrant isn’t necessarily the word I’d use to describe to Jersey unless I was talking about the boob job industry.

While setting a pick, Clippers F Reggie Evans got a little bump by Greivis Vasquez and Evans flails his arms around like Ron Artest after a dunk.

While it’s funny to laugh at, it’s also a stain on the game. It was first called a flagrant foul. Then video replay changed it to a regular foul. But if you ask me, Evans’ ass needs to get T’ed up.

To put it eloquently, there ain’t no place in the game for this p***y ass bulls**t.

For what it’s worth, Evans ended the game with 1 point and 4 rebounds. Straight balla, he.

“Obviously, when you talk about a name like Willie Mays, when the time comes that’s a pretty great name.” — Alex Rodriguez.

Notice he said “when.” I’d like to talk a little more about “if.”

Nothing can be taken for granted in life. You are not even guaranteed another day. It’s easy to look into the future and assume that something will happen, but many times that day never comes.

Maybe it’s a promotion at work that keeps you waking up every morning. Maybe one day that girl you like will express her undying love for you. Maybe you’ll die in a car accident on the way to buy cigarettes.

Alex Rodriguez is 29 home runs away from tying Willie Mays on the all-time home run list. Last Friday, he passed Ken Griffey, Jr. with home run #331.

Go ahead and look at A-Rod’s lifetime numbers — they are mind boggling. The season he had at 20 years old goes down as one of the best ever (.358, 141 R, 36 HR, 123 RBI). It’s a travesty he didn’t win the MVP award that year.

It’s not that he doesn’t have his share of records and awards. He’s won 3 MVP awards. He’s been invited to the All-Star game 14 times. He makes more money than anyone in the game.

None of that matters in this discussion.

To A-Rod, twenty nine home runs might not seem like a lot, but he is no spring chicken. He will turn 37 in July. In this supposed “post-steroid” era, 29 home runs could be an entire season’s worth.

Look at his HR totals from the last four years: 35 in 2008, 30 in 2009, 30 in 2010 and 16 in 2011. The dwindling trend is obvious.

All it takes is one injury to the lower body and his season could be just like last year. Or even worse. He’s not hitting the cover off the ball so far this year, and at times he just looks… old.

The fact that he has a contract until he’s 42 works in his favor. Barring a career ending injury, he will likely get that $6 million bonus for passing Mays.

According to Baseball-Reference.com, the batter most similar to him by age has been Hank Aaron for the last four years. If he plays like Aaron for the next 3-4 years, we’ll be talking about him passing Bonds. Yay.

OK, so we can all agree that he will probably pass Mays. When? If not this year, surely it should be next year.

But what about our other question? Do we WANT him to pass Mays?

After his admittance of steroid use, many people immediately discounted A-Rod’s accomplishments as artificially inflated. Unfortunately, we’ll never know how inflated.

But does that matter to anyone any more? Do these records matter anymore? hardly anyone gave a damn about him passing Griffey. We all assumed he would do it. After all, Rodriguez is the fastest player in history to reach 500.

I remember saying to an old buddy, “I can’t wait until A-Rod passes Bonds so he isn’t the home run king anymore.”

Many people I know felt the same way. How stupid he made us all look.

I most definitely look at him differently now. Don’t misunderstand, I still look at his career stats and shake my head in amazement. It’s hard to believe how awesome he has been for so long. No matter what, he will go down as one of the best ever.

Who doesn’t love watching history in the making? About 10 years ago, I wanted A-Rod to break all the records. I wanted to be able to tell my grandkids I watched him play.

Of course by the time I have grandkids modern medicine will be so advanced steroids will probably seem like wooden teeth.

Nothing inside me is rooting for him to break another record. Likely he will pass Mays and Ruth, with a series of uneventful seasons batting .247 with 14 HRs.

And if I had to guess, no one will care.

I’m sorry, but I just can’t call him Metta World Peace. He will always, affectionately, be Ron-Ron to me.

He plays hard. He flails his arms around. James Harden’s head just happens to be there. S**t happens.

Is this worthy of a suspension? It’s really hard to tell when you watch the video if he meant to do it or not. It doesn’t seem to be in the character of the new and improved Ron Artest to do something like this on purpose.

You never know with this guy, though. He is one certifiably crazy f**ker.

He was thrown out of the game in the second quarter and gave a half assed apology in the locker room. If I were DS, I’d sit him down for at least two games. Whether he meant to do it or not, Artest needs to be reminded that he can’t just wave his arms around like a caveman after he scores.

On second look, it’s almost impossible for this not to have been a little intentional. Four games minimum. What a dickhead. A frighteningly intense dickhead.

This year the 2012 Babe Bracket was heavy on upsets. The Championship round featured a #14 seed from the Sports Bracket, Maria Sharapova.

Not to say Ms. Sharapova isn’t attractive, but to say she’s the second hottest woman in the world seems to be a stretch. But that’s the way it goes.

However, the winner is not much of a surprise: Scarlett Johansson.
