ZAB JUDAH & FLOYD MAYWEATHER

So yesterday I mentioned being at club OPM for C-Webb’s welcome party. In passing, I also mentioned we were offered tickets for the Hopkins-Wright fight. Obviously, we didn’t go and as it turns out, we didn’t need to. We had our own front row seats to a throw down between Zab Judah and Floyd Mayweather inside OPM. I didn’t write about it because I though it was just a coupla random drunk dudes, but, as it turns out, it wasn’t. According to SOHH: “In Vegas this weekend at Chris Webber’s BadaBling welcome party at OPM–Zab Judah had a fight with Floyd Mayweather. He decided to do an impromptu rematch–except it wasn’t planned. The buzz around the club (after folks spotted Zab’s bloody knuckles) is that Floyd was talking sh*t per usual and Zab went and styled on him. Security had to break everything up but y”all know it took a minute. The fight happened early on in the night so I missed that mess…but Zab did confirm the fight went down later on. ” (Sohh)

LEWIS HAMILTON CRASHES AND STILL RACES

Oh my baby got hurt! Thank god I didn’t hear about this while in Vegas, it would have ruined my weekend. (But after a few Cosmos, I would have been fine). Lewis Hamilton crashed during the qualifying session of the Euro Formula One Grand Prix, however, Hamilton is such a stud that he wasn’t even hurt after the insane wipeout at 170 mph. The sexy champ careered across a gravel trap in the final 15-minute qualifying session after his front-right suspension failed. That caused a puncture and he lost control at around 170mph. Hamilton was a bit shaken as he fell to the ground and climbed outta his car. “I wanted to race,” added Hamilton. “Even when I got out of the car I asked the medical team, ’when can I use the spare car? How badly damaged is my car?’ I was wondering if I would be able to use it the next day, and what would happen. So it was great to find out that I could race.” Hamilton was kept at the hospital for observation before being realesed and declared fit to race on Sunday. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a wet-champagne podium finish, but he did finish 9th, which is cool with me as long as he’s okay. And regarding the crash, it wasn’t his fault. “It was nothing to do with Lewis, we had a gun failure. The right-front wheel wasn’t tight, we know that now as we discovered it afterwards”…and congrats to Fernando Alonso, who won the race.

NFL ORDERS MICHAEL VICK TO STAY AWAY

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has weighed in on Michael Vick’s indictment on dog fighting charges, and as a result the Falcons star was ordered to stay away from training camp until the league reviews the case. In a letter to Vick on Monday, Goodell instructed Vick to stay away from training camp, at least for now. “While it is for the criminal justice system to determine your guilt or innocence, it is my responsibility as commissioner of the National Football League to determine whether your conduct, even if not criminal, nonetheless violated league policies, including the personal conduct policy,” Goodell said. Power to the people! Since last week, more than 263,000 people have contacted the NFL after the Human Society and others prodded the NFL with a red-hot poker to banish this pathetic excuse of a human being. The HSUS campaign has generated more online actions, more quickly, than any other campaign for the organization (only Hurricane Katrina responses numbered higher). Animal advocates generated a wave of activity that shut down portions of the HSUS’ website (www.humanesociety.org). They are also renewing its call for Nike to sever its relationship with Vick. Please visit the websites, send emails, make calls, and get this monster outta the public eye…and this little blurb made me laugh: ‘The NFL and the ASPCA are working on a program to educate players about the proper treatment of animals.’ Really? Are these guys so fucked-up that you need to tell them not to hang dogs, electrocute them, or beat them to death? Come on NFL, we ain’t that stupid. Sounds like nothing but a great PR move to blow smoke up our asses.

NADAL NIBBLES MY LOINS

Grab that bottle and spray that champagne my sweet Spanish treat. Nothing makes me happier than seeing Rafael Nadal win, spray and nibble. Our sexy tapa took home the trophy and the C350 after winning the Mercedes Cup ATP Final in Germany on Sunday.

ARGENTINA UNDER 20

While I was busy awarding my own golden balls over the weekend, I missed out on Argentina’s Sergio Aguero. This sexy young thing was presented with FIFA’s Golden Ball following the final of the FIFA Under 20 World Cup. Argentina defeated the Czech Republic 2-1 on Sunday. And no, I wasn’t ignoring the U20 event, I was just trying to keep my cougar-appetite somewhat legal.

KIMBERLY BELL GOLD DIGGER
Pa-leeze…one of Bonds’ former mistresses said she will discuss the couple’s relationship in the November issue of Playboy magazine. The Playboy article, accompanied by a nude pictorial of Kimberly Bell, is scheduled to hit newsstands Oct. 1. Bell said the article will cover details of her relationship with Bonds. “The opportunity was there, and I took it,” she said. The photo shoot “was one of the most liberating experiences of my life” and an obvious payback from a scorned woman who wasn’t good enough to get a ring on her finger. She declined to say how much Playboy was paying her…And yeah, I said “one of Bonds’ former mistresses.” Why? Because I know for a fact that there’s more than one out there. I just wonder how many others are sitting back and laughing at this ridiculous woman and her gold digging ways. Here’s an idea for Playboy: Why not just have a casting call for all of Bonds’ former indiscretions and publish a commemorative issue?

As always, thanks for reading. Delinda
