Why was Moulds suspended? We need to know!

On Monday, Mullarkey told a “shocked and confused” Moulds that he would be suspended for the game against the Patriots.  No one will comment on why Moulds will be suspended but reports are that he was upset about being benched for most of the game against the Dolphins and having his 121 game receiving streak broken abd refused to go back into the game after having been told to do so by a position coach.

That’s internal and personal,” Mularkey said. “Eric and I have had a good talk and we’ll keep it at that.

Hmmmm… Did he tell Tom Clements not to speak to him unless first spoken to?  Did he say “My name ain’t Mullarkey”?  Did he park in a handicap spot?  Did he call JP Losman a hyprocrite?  We need to know!

Tiger Woods sweeps golf awards


The only trophy Tiger needs.

Woods wins player of year, money list winner and lowest scoring average. It’s the 7th time he’s won the player of the year and the 5th time he’s won all three major awards.

As much as Woods made golf exciting again when he came out and won his first Masters, his total dominance has made it pretty damn boring.  Oh well, another reason to post a pic of Elin Nordegren.

Carmella DeCesare is upset

On Monday, Jeff Garcia’s girlfriend called into a Detroit sports talk station to defend her man after hearing caller after caller rip him.   This reminds me of the time Duncan Sheik’s mom called into a radio station in NJ I was listening to. (I mean, I don’t normally listen to stations playing Duncan Sheik or anything… Anyway….)

“Before the game even started it was negativity. It was horrible. I was just put off by the way people acted. And it’s not just with (Garcia). I’ve sat here and listened to things said about Joey (Harrington) and yesterday what they said about Matt Millen. I mean, I have never experienced this before and I don’t think the fans are understanding,” DeCesare said.

Goes with the territory, honey.  When your boyfriend is the QB of a horrendous team, it’s best to tune into an easy listening station.

NBA jumps on reality bandwagon

ABC announced a new show with Michael Jordan barnacle, Ahmad Rashad, called “NBA Access with Ahmad Rashad”. According to the reuters article:

Cameras will follow such stars as Shaquille O’Neal, Richard Jefferson and Carmelo Anthony, as well as Suns coach Mike D’Antoni and the Maloof brothers, who own the Sacramento Kings. There will be scenes from their lives on and off the court, along with reports from places nationwide.

Hmmm, let’s see, David Stern institutes a dress code because the core group he’s appealing to (corporate drones) can’t relate to the hip hop fashions but showing players finding new ways to hide their pot and claiming it wasn’t theirs will help cozy up to the audience.

What exactly is the point?

Ok. I’m sorry. I started out blogging a story about how the WWE announced it was going to start drug screening its athletes in the wake of the death of Eddie Guerrero. But then I somehow got suckered into watching a Lingerie Pillow Fight match and I realized what a joke this is. From here on out, professional wrestling is banned from Sportscolumn unless someone dies.

Or unless a couple of the girls gets caught having sex in the bathroom of a nightclub.

Tom Brady is Sportsman of the Year

Guaranteeing that the Patriots will flame out in the first round of the playoffs, Sports Illustrated named QB Tom Brady as their Sportsman of the Year. The reasons given by Peter King are: he’s really good, he’s a team player, he plays with fire. I am overwhelmed by Peter King’s eloquence here. Thankfully, he didn’t mention Montclair Field Hockey or the Pulitzer would’ve been locked up already.

Duwhahuh?

Since when does Congress have the right to intervene into college football? Since when does Congess have a right to waste its precious time investigating whether or not the BCS should stay?

I thought that Congress had better things to do, like help beat plowshares into swords for this tired old man that we elected king. But I guess not.

So this offseason, the BCS will be under investigation by the Congress of the United States of America.

Stop wasting our money!!!

Use the figure four leg lock dammit!

We don’t normally cover wrestling here at SC because, well, wrestling isn’t a sport.  But when I saw this story of Ric Flair, I had to post it because 1) Ric Flair was around when I still thought wrestling was real and 2) bleached blond hair is a bad idea under mug shot lights.

Ric Flair was arrested for grabbing a man by the neck and kicking a dent in his SUV after stopping him in an intersection. I can’t wait for the trial where Ric Flair addresses himself in the third person and pokes the prosecuting attorney in the eye.

The Walrus admits a mistake

Speaking about his statement that the league told him they made an error in allowing two Giants TDs the week before, Holgrem said, “I kind of messed up” and that he should have just said it was between him and the league.  The only problem is that the cat is out of the bag.  In a statement released Tuesday, the league said:

Our officiating department never discussed with the Seahawks the Amani Toomer touchdown reception, which was properly called. The Jeremy Shockey touchdown catch at the end of the first half was not overturned because the referee determined that there was insufficient visual evidence to reverse the call.”

So by saying that he shouldn’t have told us what the league told him, Holmgren is indicating that the league did in fact tell him the two TDs were mistakes, and, on top of that, the league lied in the Tuesday statement.  Holmgren said he expects to be fined.  I wonder what the fine is for embarrassing the league.
