CAMILO VS SCOTT

It’s a tough call. Camilo Villegas or Adam Scott? Right now, Adam Scott is spanking our favorite lawn cat at the EDS Byron Championships. Scott is tied for first and Villegas is playing relatively well and tied for 19th. Although this is only the first round, don’t expect too much coverage on Villegas. The shadow cast by Adam Scott is a tough one to crawl out from under and the media is serving Scott to us on a silver spoon. While many of us feel the need for more Camilo Villegas coverage, his agent is currently “satisfied” with the amount of coverage Villegas is receiving. This makes it difficult for us; however, the pain is eased when Adam Scott tee’s off in his hot Burberry gear.

LANCE ARMSTRONG HAS NO FEAR

Lance Armstrong narrates the NHL’s latest “My Stanley Cup” TV ad, which debuts this Saturday during NBC’s Stanley Cup Playoff coverage. In the spot, via NHL Productions, Armstrong says, “No one remembers who came in second. There is no immortality for second best. No champagne bath. … No engraving. Just a lonely walk down a quiet hall and the silence can break your heart.” The spot also features Sharks C Joe Thornton, Hurricanes Hot-hot-hottie Eric Staal, Avalanche C Joe Sakic and Devils G Martin Brodeur, as well as Mighty Ducks D Scott Niedermayer, RW Teemu Selanne and C Andy McDonald.

A FIRST IN THE NBA

The Chicago Bulls have one hell of a hottie shooting hoops for them. Sexy Ben Gordon. Gordon is so hot that he has become the first NBA player to have his own energy drink. BG7 contains pure organic Chinese white tea and was created by Gordon along with his advisors at H3 Enterprises. Gordon said: “I would drink some other energy drink and after games I would just crash. … This gives you the boost you need, but keeps you at an even level.” Boost away Gordon and keep up the great play.

MENSA REJECT OF THE YEAR?

L.A. psychologist Michael Cohn has filed a class-action suit in Orange County Superior Court against the Angels, alleging “sex and age discrimination,” after he was “denied a tote bag during a Mother’s Day giveaway” at Angel Stadium last year. The ridiculous suit claims “thousands of males and fans under 18 were ‘treated unequally’ at a ‘Family Sunday’ promotion last May and are entitled to-get-this-$4,000 each in damages.” The big crybaby sent a letter to the Angels last June and asked for them to pay $4,000 to all males who attended the game. The Angels responded properly and sent Cohn four tote bags and a letter stating that the team ‘ran out of the item that day and had to order more.’ Proof positive that this guy is an idiot? He’s the only person to cry “not fair” about the promotion. So much for a “class-action” lawsuit.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Since watching movie Tiptoes, I haven’t been able to even look at Matthew McConaughey. However, he has redeemed himself in the “intelligence” arena by writing a letter to the editor of USA Today. In it, he writes: “We should — and do — all root for Barry Bonds to break every record in baseball’s home run history. It’s even more than what we love about the game, it’s what we, Americans, love about success.”

That’s it for today. As always, thanks for reading. Delinda
