Bulls Gone Wild

I hate dogfighting, bullfighting and cockfig….er, wait a minute, you get the point.

Except for the unsuspecting children, any buttmunch who performs, produces or attends one of these events is getting what they deserve, even when things go awry.

Amazing video — Bulls Gone Wild! Show us your tits!

Oh, I forgot it’s ‘part of their culture’ so it must be OK. You go bull.

The Cher of football returns

Looks like Brett Favre’s training camp opens today just like it did exactly one year ago today when he showed at Vikings training camp on August 18, 2009. I’d rather watch Muhammad Ali fill a bird feeder than hear anymore conjecture about Favre’s status right now.

Seriously, Favre’s off-the-field decisions are about as anticlimactic as a Lady Gaga outfit. Just like Madonna perfected the strong, sexual, over-the-top liberated-woman act in the 80s, and Elton John before that, Favre has perfected the boring-the-shit-out-of-me act of pretending to retire.

The Favre Rules

So Brett Favre can pretty much dictate to the Vikings when he’ll show up for training camp, when he’ll practice and when he’ll play. He owns that organization more so now than he did when he was beating up on them as the leader of the Packers.

Think about it: what quarterback in the history of football has been able to dictate his own terms like Favre? Which begs another question: what quarterback in the history of football would act like this? Could you imagine a scenario where Terry Bradshaw or Troy Aikman flirted with retirement more often than Cher, or through their absence, demand a different set of rules to play by?

The Favre Questions

Has Favre earned the right to show up when he wants to?

Absolutely.

Is it right?

That’s a tough call when you consider the rest of the team is out there busting their ass.

Does Favre give the Vikings the best chance to win now? Can he take them to the Super Bowl?

Does Lindsay Lohan like muff?

Is there resentment towards Favre in the locker room?

Not being in the locker room everyday — although I would retire from this blogging stuff to become the Vikings’ locker room manager — it’s hard to know for sure, and you can trust the beat writers who are closest to the situation won’t investigate locker room animosity for fear of retribution, so drawing from my own experience I know players who receive preferential treatment are discussed and even vilified by some teammates.

Is that healthy for a locker room?

No.

But will it costs them wins?

About as likely as Spencer Pratt making up with Lauren Conrad. Seriously, this is the NFL, once the game starts it’s about the team — one obvious exception made for Terrell Owens.

Vikings’ 2010 Outlook
With Favre back in the fold, I expect the Vikings to not only return to the NFC Championship game, but to win it this time.

It took five Minnesota turnovers — remarkably none from Adrian Peterson — for the Saints to squeeze past the Vikings in overtime. Counting on turnovers to win games is a little bit like counting on your opponents suffering an injury and it’s extremely rare for a team to be as fortuitous with turnovers as the Saints were throughout 2009 into the next season.

Adopting Arsenal

I caught World Cup fever this year, in fact I caught it four years ago as well. However, in the four years that pass between World Cups I pay as much attention to soccer-football as I do the Olympics.

To remedy that I’ve decided to adopt an English Premier League team, and after a few hours of research I’ve decided to adopt Arsenal.

I’m all in. I’ve registered at the Arsenal website and subscribed to their feeds and newsletters. Heck, I can even watch their matches — which oddly enough they call ‘fixtures’ — online!

Arsenal’s season starts tomorrow against Liverpool at 16:00. I have no idea what time that is here in Dallas but I’ll figure it out.

About Arsenal
Nickname: The Gunners
League: Arsenal plays in the Premier League, but like other EPL teams they play in the UEFA, Carling and FA Cup tournaments during the season. I should be able to grasp this concept fairly easily since my gay softball team does the same thing.
Sponsor: Emirates Airlines
Stadium: Emirates Stadium
Located: London

Roethlisberger changes hometowns, say what???

I’ve always felt that if you can’t own your faults and accept the criticism that come with them then you’re probably not on the road to forgiveness.

So is the case with two-time ‘alleged’ sexual assaulter and suspended quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who according to USA Today changed the hometown listed on his Pittsburgh Steelers bio because of criticism he received from residents of his Findlay, Ohio, his real hometown.

Roethlisberger now lists Corey Rawson, Ohio as his hometown. Unfortunately for Roethlisberger, just like his alibis, Corey Rawson, Ohio doesn’t exist, strengthening my argument that you don’t have to be smart to be an NFL quarterback, just arrogant.

Matt Kemp’s Dong Photos?

Rihanna's boy Matt Kemp

In the latest installment of athlete turned dong photographer, we introduce what may or may not be Dodger’s outfielder Matt Kemp and his blurry penis, brought to you courtesy of Mediatakeout, the same guys who exposed Dallas Cowboys’ tight end Martellus Bennett’s exposure.

There seems to be some doubt as to whether Kemp, or his dong, is the man in these photos.

If it is Kemp he must be what they call ‘a grower’. Rihanna deserves more than that.
