Last week, we had a little blurb in the Odds and Ends section about Andre Agassi hitting Steffi Graf in the face with his racket on the follow through. Well, here's the video of it from a person in the stands. A couple of thoughts: 1) It wouldn't have happened if they weren't doing something incredibly gay (we're taking it back!) like holding hands while hitting; and 2) gotta love the enthusiasm of the PA guy "left handed!" as he hits her in the face -- followed by silence.

Chunky Soup has announced their latest lineup of "Mama's Boys" and fans are hoping that their players aren't affected by the Chunky Soup Curse. The eight man roster of LaDainian Tomlinson, Matt Hasselbeck, Vince Young, Larry Johnson, Jonathan Vilma, DeMarcus Ware, Devin Hester and Todd Heap is the largest that Chunky has ever had.

In a completely unrelated bit of info, we've previously stated that Jesus shouldn't have any part in sports, especially in the Masters, but apparently some people don't agree. And apparently he plays for the Dallas Cowboys.

In other news...

[Our Book of Scrap]: Speaking of curses, some Chargers fans are so concerned about the Madden Curse that they've started a petition against having LaDanian on the cover.

[10,000 Takes]: Cedric Griffin kicked out of a nightclub for not pulling up his pants. Hey, at least it wasn't for pulling down his pants.

[Yahoo]: Oh sure, Agassi, go to the 'I accidentally hit my wife with a racket during a fundraiser' excuse. Jason Kidd sure does wish he'd thought of that one.

And finally, we've seen elephants playing soccer and puppies getting flagged for pooping in the Puppy Bowl but this might take the cake. Check out this video of a bunch of crazy Japanese drivers in some sort of weird demolition derby/soccer game.
