Confuseyus: NCAA Week 10 & NFL Week 9 Predictions

Confuseyus

Saturdays and Sundays. They’re once again about the pigskin. And laundry. And some yard work. But mainly, they’re about the pigskin. And maybe you should clean the garage while you’re at it. Anyway, what better sport for Joe Average Junkie to prognosticate over than football? So we’ll officially continue here with predictions for NFL Week 9 and College Week 10, which starts Friday. The college predictions will be only for Top 25 matchups featured in the Yahoo Sports College Football Pick ‘Em game. Let’s pick some pigs!

Random Japanese Bikini Idol Pic Of The Day #169

As you’ve probably figured out by now, these are now few & far between in large part due to my dealing with serious personal issues and emergencies recently, which has big-time cut into my free time. That’s not changing anytime soon, but I’m going to work when I can on getting a lot of new pictures up to keep everyone happy. Like this one…

Confuseyus: Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Rogers & World Victory Road Sengoku 11 Predictions

Confuseyus

Saturday night’s all right for fightin’ once again, then again so is Saturday morning! It’s another big double-shot for MMA fans this Saturday-the big story is Strikeforce debuting on network TV with the long-awaited US TV debut of Fedor Emelianenko taking on top SF Heavyweight contender Brett Rogers. But before that, the early morning brings us World Victory Road Sengoku 11 from Tokyo, Japan. Since both events are only a few hours apart, quick predictions for both events are in this post, so read on and get ready for another busy MMA Saturday!

UFC 104 Paydays, Suspensions

My favorite post-MMA event time. Click below to see the disclosed fighter payouts and the medical suspensions coming out of last week’s UFC 104 event.

Brock Lesnar Is Beatable!

But that’s bad news for the rest of us. Word broke a short time ago that the UFC Heavyweight Champion is off UFC 106 due to illness. Something he’s been fighting for 3+ weeks and it’s kept him from training. UFC president Dana White doesn’t think it’s that pig flu going around. From my past experience, this sounds like some kind of infection. We’re waiting to hear what happens now-either they reschedule Lesnar-Shane Carwni for the title or they roll the dice and give Carwin someone else. Geez, and this not long after Carwin went on record saying his first defense after he won the title would be Cain Velasquez. Shane vs. Cain again now, perhaps? We’ll see what happens but major bummer. I was looking forward to this.

More when it becomes available.

“What Just Happened?” Draw Your Own Conclusion

I missed this as it happened last night, but just saw a clip of what is easily one of the worst baseball calls ever-screw The Danny-FIRE TIM McCLELLAND. But of course Bud Selig isn’t going to do anything, he wants those Damn Yankees in the World Series for the ratings it’ll bring in. Oh, I’ll stop ranting long enough to explain what happened-last night in ALCS Game 4 it’s the top of the 5th, there’s 1 out and the Yanks are batting. Nick Swisher hits a grounder to Angels P Darren Oliver. With Jorge Posada heading home, Oliver throws to C Mike Napoli. Posada turns back to 3rd. Rundown. But…at the same time Robinson Cano is heading to 3rd base-we’ve got 2 Yankees at the same base! Napoli, alert to what’s happening, tags Cano right before Robinson realizes what’s happening then alertly tags Posada, who stepped on 3rd then immediately stepped OFF the base. Should be a very crazy double play. BUT…McClelland, who was standing RIGHT THERE, only called Posada out and not Cano. Replays clearly showed Napoli tagged Cano out before the runner stpped on 3rd, then Posada was off the base when tagged. McClelland said he didn’t see Cano get tagged. BS. Looking at the replay a few more times, he saw Cano get tagged before he stepped on the bag. Here’s what McClelland said after the game, according to asapsports.com:

“After looking at replays, I’m not sure I believe the replay of the first one … It showed that Cano was off the bag when he was tagged. I did not see that for whatever reason … I’m just out there trying to do my job and do it the best I can.”

Yes, please have some long & dumbfounded laughs at this egregious show of ineptitude. If there was ever proof that sometimes postseason sports are fixed to get popular teams and players to go to championship series strictly to get high network ratings, this is it. Selig, MLB and Fox all should have their money-grabbing @$$es dragged before Congress and have their antitrust exemption repealed and the FBI needs to do some busting as well. Absolutely unacceptable and then some, even though it seemed to have no real effect on the game’s outcome (the Yanks didn’t score). This is a serious blow to the credibility of the game and a sad sign of how sports are putting the networks and advertisers ahead of who should be first and foremost-the fans. Remember, we the fans are the ones who pay the teams and players so they can play. And if we’re not paying and watching we’re not buying what’s being advertised-it’s a chain reaction and it makes a difference. Don’t believe me? Look at this season in NASCAR. And while we’re at it, let’s get a new commish to replace Selig-someone who has ZERO part of a baseball team and thus no favorable/unfavorable interests outside of his own. Impromptu rant over.

Oh, and before I forget, here’s a link to the video of the play in question:

Funny MMA Video Of The Day: Kiss THIS!

The sucker punch. The cheapest of the cheap. The lowest of the low. But when the other guy asks for it, it’s funny. Case in point: This clip I came across before a MMA fight. Not sure when this was, but here’s the deal: They’re in each other’s faces before being separated for ref instructions. Near the end the guy in the pink mohawk (Dude…) blows the other guy a kiss. The other guy kisses him back. With his right fist. Not sportsmanlike at all, but still funny and the kiss-blower got what he deserved. Funny part was right as the clip ends the cage announcer calls for security!
I can’t put this video in the post but I can link to it and it’ll be in the vodpod. Enjoy.

SO click below to check out my review of ‘It’s Binary, Baby!” by Makke, or as fellow remixer “Boz” calls him on his radio show, “Makke Good!”
