ESPN the Magazine recently published a story
revealing that (gasp!), athlete blogs aren't always written by the
actual athletes. Well, that got us thinking...what if some of our
favorite sports personalities actually did write their own blogs?
Playing the Field found out for you. We bring you When Athletes
Blog. Your blogger today: Manny Ramirez.
The Milwaukee Brewers struggles
haven't stopped at losing baseball games. Now they're fighting amongst
themselves... which is exactly what the Cubs want.
J-Money has been chronicling her failures online since 2005, a span that has included the purchase of a lifesize Curt Schilling cutout , running the Boston Marathon, and being fired while sitting on the toilet. She'll stab you in the head if you call her a jogger and will probably mention that marathon thing again. Today.
While sports bloggers light the internets ablaze over whether Erin Andrews� skirts are too short, I find myself fascinated by a post in a New Orleans sports blog
about an unexpected sighting at this weekend�s Saints scrimmage. It was
a post about another leggy blonde who�s making headlines for what she
wears on the sidelines: a referee�s uniform.
Hungover... In The Very Best Way Dealing with a baseball hangover on a Monday morning ain't pretty, but it sure is worth it if means you get to look forward to more of the same thoughout the summer and into October. I'm also sorely tempted to call it a BAYsball BAYngover.
Pictures of Jimmy Clausen's underage alcohol consumption are the least of the embattled Notre Dame quarterback's concerns. EDSBS has uncovered EXCLUSIVE photographic evidence of a FIghting Irish underbelly of delinquency that has gone unnoticed since the early days of American cinema. Also, Jimmy Clausen shot Ronald Reagan. You heard it here first.
Dear Manny, Let me preface this by saying that watching you play
(and act like a total 'tard) has been the highlight of Red Sox baseball
for me over the last seven years. The peeing in the monster, running
out to left field with a water bottle in your pocket...and my ultimate
favorite, Mannyism, which you said on one of the greatest nights of my
life, and what I want etched on my headstone someday: "I don't believe
in no curses. I believe you make your own destination
Mission: Demystify what goes on behind the scenes in major league sports, particularly baseball... but from the perspective of a curious fan. What makes these sports so soap-opera-like entertaining to those of us willing to dedicate day after day to watching, cheering, and banging our heads? Who and what behind it makes us all tick? How do the broadcasters do their thing ? Next project: When players "review video", what's the technology behind that?
The Milwaukee Brewers' Prince Fielder, son of Cecil Fielder and presumed heir to the eating-his-way-out-of-the-majors throne, became a vegetarian in the off season after reading the book Skinny Bitch. Fielder has not actually BECOME skinny so far this season, but he did shove his teammate into the dugout wall during Monday night's game. Maybe he's not getting enough protein.
For football fans, the shimmering turf, catching the subtle twitch of a lineman's leg, and knowing before the replay airs if the receiver was still inbounds shines brighter than any diamond ring.
Members of the press were called to a surprise press conference
tonight at Lambeau Field. As the clock struck 12:01am Central Standard
Time, Green Bay Packers Quarterback Aaron Rodgers strode into the room
carrying his ipod and bose sound dock. Soon the opening notes of Gloria Gaynor�s anthem �I Will Survive� filled the room and Rodgers began to sing.
I Love them, but most people hate them....My Detroit
Pistons. Keep up to date with the latest news, videos, original artwork and a
bit hilarity about the most hated team in the NBA. If you can't have a bit
of fun with Sheed, than there is something seriously wrong with you.
