I'm sure by now everyone has heard of Jodie Sweetin's meth problem. But pay particular attention to this part:
"After a particularly bad three-day bender, which reportedly resulted in an intervention staged by her former Full House costars, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, John Stamos and Bob Saget, Sweetin checked herself into Promises rehab facility for six weeks of intensive therapy."
1) Where was Dave Coulier? Does he not care anymore? Very disappointed in Uncle Joey...
2) Hey, aren't interventions the responsibility of REAL families?
Dude..... you've changed......

Greatest Michigan Daily Sports Article Ever
You will never see another women's tennis cover like this again. As J. Brady said, either the kid completely made up the quote, embellished it, or this girl is a complete idiot (and slut). Go Blue.
"Saturday was a miserable day for the women's tennis team.
Irked by boisterous South Carolina fans, No. 35 Michigan was downed 6-1 by the 24th-ranked Gamecocks. "
People kept yelling 'Cocks, cocks, cocks,' " Michigan senior Nina Yaftali said. "(It was) so loud, so crude. They should have just said big hen. My opponent would grunt it (along with the fans). It was just a cockfest. Do you think Michigan should change their mascot to shock teams? It's (not against the rules). It's just supporting the team. We yell 'Go Big Blue' and they say 'Go Big Cock'. See, it's the exact same ? The cock yelling was resonating throughout the tennis center. We got cockblocked." "

Fred Smoot Just Moved In...
So we get home yesterday and find Gennaro has purchased a new play thing for Woodley. Take a look yourself. The first thoughts that came to our minds were: "Fred Smoot" and "ASS TO ASS!!!"
We're so confused right now.
All we want to do is figure out which end of Woodley to stick the toy in....
Droffo with double-sided dildo...

Kristof-O'Reilly Beef
Finally a worthwhile column in the New York Times. NYT columnist Nicholas Kristof is a genius: He is raising money for Bill O'Reilly to go to Africa, after O'Reilly bitched out of joining Kristof.
Today's update:
"I'm just headed out the door to Columbia University to speak about -- what else? -- Darfur. But as of 7:38 a.m. this morning the pledges to finance Bill O'Reilly's trip to Darfur totalled $75,799.61. (That does not include a considerable number of people who are only willing to pay for a one-way ticket.) I'll have more updates tomorrow."

Out of Sight, But Not Out of Mind
The Gauntlet 2 is one of our favorite shows, but one of our favorite jackasses - Mike "The Miz" - has suddenly disappeared this season in an unprecented move of apparently turning down TnT, TJ Lavin, booze and sluts.
The Miz 
So we started digging and found Mike's old wrestling bio for the "UPW".
Note two things about this page.
1) The Miz's official site seems to be down, which raises concern about the league's well-being
2) According to his interesting facts, The Miz "now speaks weekly to large college audiences where he recounts his experiences on Real World and applies them to problems faced by students in similar situations." Please begs the question: what situations did we face in college that are similar to that of the Real World?
Then, we got around to finding The Miz's column for the WWE. Great lead:
"Hey there, Mizifts. I was sitting at a packed Hooters the other day watching the Royal Rumble and it got me thinking – where do people go to watch WWE pay-per-views? Lately I’ve been going to Hooters because where else are you gonna get a beer, wings, and most of the time a hot Hooters waitress. Well, even if the waitress isn’t hot, you still gotta love the outfit. I once dated a girl from Hooters and made her wear that outfit one night, but that’s another story."
As always, you can check his own personal web site for updates. He is really pumped up about his new column and says "My dream is coming closer and closer."
As the media's watchdog, we have an obligation to track down The Miz. We are in the process of writing him an e-mail in order to do a Q&A for the blog. We will keep you posted.
Also, an update on Coral is coming soon.....

From A Real Article
This is on a black track athlete that competed in the 1940s. This story ran in 2000 in the Sunday News (Lancaster, PA):
"But Ewell reached his prime in the early 1940s. Unfortunately, so did Adolf Hitler."
Can you say Adolf Hitler had a prime???

Pat Buchanan on.... Jack Bauer???
First McCain, now Pat Buchanan. P.B. uses the popularity of "24" to push his right-wing agenda on the war on terror, in a column today for the WorldNetDaily. He explains that at times like this, "we have to follow Jack Bauer's rules, not American Civil Liberties Union rules."
Bauer would definitely cut out some eyeballs if he found out he was being used as part of political propaganda....

Oh That Tricky John McCain
You probably didn't notice it, but John McCain made a cameo in "24" last night. Coming back from a commercial about halfway through the episode (when the screen is split into 3), McCain hands a folder to Buchanon. As if this show didn't have enough credibility, one of their biggest fans is a former war hero who spent 5 years being tortured. Gotta applaud McCain, although this might come back to haunt him in the next congressional hearing......
Oh yeah, and I wonder if McCain even realized that the next scene was Jack Bauer torturing someone.....

Realest/Unrealest of the Year Updates
The first month of 2006 has brought us plenty of real and unreal moments. Realness and Realety are things not easily defined - if you look them up in Webster's Dictionary you won't find definitions (granted, they aren't actual words, but still, they defy definition). Thus, the standards for deciding what is real and unreal are created 100% by The Realests (given our name, it is only fitting that we should have the first, final, and only word in this contest). There are many worthy candidates for both awards, but we've managed to find 5 front-runners in each. Keep in mind that the race is very tight and things could change in a heart beat. If you have any candidates you think are worthy, leave a comment:
Realest of the Year Candidates
The King
Super Bowl MVP?? 
Current odds: 5-1
Future prospects: Real
Analysis: We'll admit it. The first time we saw the King we were scared out of our minds. In fact, we ran away from our TV screens the next 6 times we saw the commercial. But Burger King really hit a gold mine with this ad campaign. At first the King was just creepy - we would see him staring into people's bedrooms at sunrise with that creepy, glazed look in his eyes. But then we realized he was only there to give them tasty breakfast sandwiches.
But we don't think anyone was ready for the King's leap into the NFL. Whether he was picking off Drew Bledsoe out of nowhere, hugging Don Shula, or torching the Vikings defense for a touchdown we were pulling for him all the way. If the Maloof Brothers were smart, they would sign a contract with BK to get the King as their official mascot. Could you imagine Ron Artest having a bad game, storming into the tunnel, and starting a brawl with the King? Who would win? The answer: Everyone. We all would win. Needless to say, we are looking forward to the King dunking on Shaq's face in a future commercial.
Woodley
Cute Dog or Devil Incarnate? 
Current odds: 3-1
Future prospects: Very Real
Analysis: After the NY Post made dogs like him famous, its been hard to deal with Woodley. As of now, its clear that I hate the dog and the dog hates me (evidence: to date he has destroyed my iPod speakers, my PS2 controllers and wires, my posters, and my life). Its also clear that he regards Jim as his drunk but playful uncle; the kind that comes over during reunions with a flask and ends up roughing up one of the kids.
Well, Woodley has certainly gotten his revenge over the last couple of months. In only 7 short months on this planet, Woodley has managed to take close to 3 dumps a day in our apartment; urinate close to 452234 gallons on our floor; destroy everything in sight; and make our entire apartment smell like a bathroom.
We thought we had him beat when we neutered him (note: Coach Filice ignored our suggestion of just getting the procedure done in a back alley in Chinatown) but after a brief period of confusion, Woodley has returned to his rebellious ways. I just spent 10 minutes cleaning up a very pleasant mess that Woodley left for me. The future is bright for this kid.
Wes
Gangster... 
Current Odds: 20-1
Future Prospects: Slightly Real
Analysis: There's no denying Wes' real appeal. The Beauty and the Geek producers refer to him only as the "guy who tracks monkeys with lazers." Personally, we feel that there is nothing geeky about that. In fact, its much more real than going to law school or researching features for a sports television station. Wes' biggest flip is the fact that he's not a geek after all. In fact, after the last episode where Wes got a make-over, we're willing to say that Wes is better looking than a lot of people we know. This kid has come a long way from finger painting with "blood" during the interior design challenge. Plus, we give him a pretty good chance at hooking up with this chick:
Good job Wes 
Chris Andersen
Already letting himself go... 
Current Odds: 50-1
Future Prospects: Questionably Real
Analysis: The Birdman started out the year extremely hot, getting booted out of a league that has guys like Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson as its marquee players. But what can C.A. possibly follow it up with? Our guess is a trip to Europe - busting your ass in a foreign country playing against the next Darkos, Markos and Zarkos is pathetic. Sorry Birdman, at least you can claim "January's Realest".
Laju
Nigerian Realety 
Note: Laju has been included on this list simply because she asked to be. You too can earn internet fame if you simply talk to use and tell us you like the blog. Yes, we have that much power. Jim thinks that I am ruining the credibility of the blog by honoring Laju's request. I have a few answers for that. First, we have no credibility. Second, our greatest claim to fame is a film clip of Jim falling on a futon and breaking his head. Third, I hope you all remember this when we get famous - come to me when you want the handouts, not Jim.
Current odds: 8-1
Future Prospects: Moderately Real
Analysis: Laju is the only person on this list that we actually know. Even though she knows the 2 person committee that hands out the award, we don't think Laju needs any help to win the crown this year. In a year of knowing Laju, she has proven herself in many aspects: gets obnoxiously drunk, fights people, makes ridiculous bets, and somehow cheers for the 49ers.
This year, however, Laju has done the most real thing we could imagine: She's done nothing at all. The simple brilliance of this move would go unnoticed by some people, but we certainly can appreciate its subtlety. What has prompted this disappearance? We're not sure, but we have ideas. Years of cheering for the 49ers might have finally caught up to her. She might have finally fulfilled her promise of bagging Alex Rodriguez and disappearing with him (much like he disappears in big games). Or maybe she's just laying in the cut, waiting to shock the world with her next move. We don't know...
Unrealest of the Year Candidates
Cam
Wah wah beep beep 
Current Odds: 4-1
Future Prospects: Too Unreal for Words
Analysis: There is one simple rule: Hov will not lose. The corollary to that rule is very simple: Respect the King. The Pink Panther violated both of those rules and is going to pay the price (and by that we mean he has a great chance of winning Unrealest of the Year). Not only was his diss song uninspired, but it got Juelz banned from the Def Jam building for a couple of days. We want Hov to come back with a diss, but until he decides to, we'll keep making fun of Cam.
Note: Jim used to try and convince me that Dipset was the next big thing. Draw your own conclusions.
The 12th Man (including Ken)
Full time jack move 
Current Odds: 25-1
Future Prospects: Quite Unreal
Analysis: This is the perfect example of "marketing gone overboard." I blame the guy that thought of the 12th man for inspiring the people that came up with the Mach Fusion. Come to think of it, the only good tradition we can think of is "The Claw." If it makes Seahawks fans feels any better, we give a huge thumbs up to the Seattle foam heads and would really enjoy seeing one on Ken.
K-Fed
A douche by any other name... 
Future Prospects: Trying Really Really Really Really Hard to be Real
Analysis: Federline is a complete douche - we already know that. The only thing really going against Kev is that he is trying too hard. As much as we now hate Cam'ron, we can still respect lyrics like "Wah Wah Beep Beep" because we know there was no time or effort involved. He's gonna have to pull this one out of his ass by doing something like getting a face tattoo.
President Logan
We want Palmer back! 
Future Prospects: As Real as the Exact Opposite of David Palmer
Analysis: If someone told us that they had David Palmer killed we would immediately a) stick a towel down their throat Jack Bauer-style; b) cut their eyeballs out Jack Bauer-style; c) shoot them in the chest Jack Bauer-style; d) cut their arm off with a hacksaw Jack Bauer-style; or e) send that person's daughter into a hotel infested by a deadly virus Jack Bauer-style. We would not turn into whiny little bitches. Look for this season to end with Bauer shooting Logan "Chapelle-style".
Dick... 

...riders 
Current Odds: 3-2
Future Prospects: Ridiculously Unreal
Analysis: You should know by now that the one thing we hate is no-talent jackasses. These guys are the definition of no-talent jackasses. "Lazy Sunday" was a great idea and then these two douchebags just jack it and make it for the "West Coast"? These guys aren't funny (no, we aren't jealous...Our dog, Woodley, is more entertaining than these dopes)! The video is crap! And we aren't going to link to it because there's no reason why these guys should be famous! We bet that the same people that think this video is hilarious are the same people that think "Fratboy Missionaries" isn't going to make three trillion dollars. It's time to decide - who you with?

A Tribute to Super Bowl XL Champions
When you check this blog out at work or in class, please play this continuously. After 15 years, this song finally works.

Super Bowl XL
We've decided to do our second annual running blog of the Super Bowl. Last year's stellar effort really inspired us (it's about 3/4 of the way down the page. Without further ado...The Realests' Super Bowl XL Running Blog.
January 21st - Just before kick off: Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. Jerome Bettis is from Detroit.
Jerome Bettis is the guy on the right. 
4:22 pm: ABC starts rolling out the pre-taped segments to fill time during the 48 hour pregame show. They cut to a guy mowing the a football field in the middle of nowhere. In a voice over the guy says, "I was just out there cutting the grass on the field. But that field was a place where young kids would see their dreams come true." I almost vomited and thought that ABC was going to report on another contrived sob story - maybe one about how Ben Roethlisberger has no control over his pinky toe for the first 17 years of his life. Then, immediately I realized I was an asshole when they explained that a Pop Warner league for kids with physical/mental disabilities used the field. I'm going to hell.
4:31 pm: A segment about Bill Cowher. Curiously, ABC does most of the filming within an actual steel mill. The question is: Are they just really getting into the whole "Pittsburgh grittiness" angle or are they drastically cutting costs? One of the steel workers starts explaining how his steel working crew is exactly the same as the Steelers football team. Yeah, they're pretty much the same - especially if you forget the fact that the Steelers players get paid about $100,000 for 3 hours of work on a Sunday afternoon. The interview with Bill Cowher made me wonder: which weighs more - Cowher's chin or Bettis' ass?
4:36 pm: Michael Irvin follows up the Cowher segment by saying that "Bill Cowher looks like Pittsburgh." I don't know what that means, but I love Emmit Smith's quote from the other day:
"This is the Pro Football Hall of Fame, not the Life Hall of Fame. His stats are what they are. They are not going to change."
4:38 pm: Mike Tirico goes to commercial and compliments Detroit on being a great host city. What's the over/under on the number of times that is said during the actual game? 10? 15? 100?
5:24 pm: Just in case you've been dead for the last week, ABC is running a segment about how Jerome Bettis is from Detroit. I guess its only official once the pregame show weighs in on it. How come no one is talking about how the Bus almost choked away the Steelers' playoff run when he fumbled on the on yard line. But, we're not complaining about the Bus getting good press and shedding some good light on the D.
5:38 pm: Notice how Mat tHasselbeck specifically requested to leave the top of his bald head out of the Disney World commercial. And if Joey Porter goes to DW, "Oh yes, there will be blood."
5:52 pm: Did Stevie Wonder just say we are going to be annihilated?
6:02 pm: Where was the Ray Lewis dance when he came out as the Super Bowl MVP? By the way, that would make a great Burger King commercial if the King did his Super Bowl shake.
6:04 pm: Lynn Swann already has the politician thumbs up perfected. He just picked up 3 million votes with that gesture.
6:07 pm: Grey's Anatomy looks really good tonight. If "Code Black" turns out to be some cross-promotion like the Bud Bowl, we are expanding the ban to ABC.
6:40 pm: Sorry for the lapse - dinner.
6:45 pm: Our first Charlie Batch sighting - him standing on the sideline with an ear piece. He definitely has NOT gotten the last laugh, as Drew Sharp suggests. That's like saying Peter Warrick got the last laugh on the Bengals.
6:50 pm: Which have we heard more: that the Buccaneers have never run back a kickoff for a TD or Chris Gardocki has never had a punt blocked? Most importantly, he HAS had a punt blocked - it just got passed the line of scrimmage so it didn't count as a block. As we have said, we are the media's watchdog.
6:53 pm: Puffy collabs with Diet Pepsi on a song. We wonder if Diet Pepsi will be on the next Biggie Duets album.
6:55 pm: They just mentioned Andre Reed. Quick story that is especially relevant because of the Hall of Fame inductions yesterday: My co-workers were at a bar earlier this year watching NFL games when Reed walked in. Coworker #1 jokingly said to Reed: "My friend doesn't think you should be in the Hall of Fame." Reed tells them to "get the fuck out of my face" and the bartender tells them never to come back on Sundays. 100% true story.
6:59 pm: Our questions about the new "Beauty and the Geek" host have just been answered, as we have just been notified that Brian McFaddon is now a corner for the Steelers.
7:04 pm: Ben Roethlisberger is 1 for 4 at the end of the first quarter. Maybe he was out enjoying Detroit's night life last night.
7:05 pm: Diet Pepsi stars in a Jackie Chan movie. Who is a better actor: Diet Pepsi or Chris Tucker?
7:07 pm: Peter Warrick has a decent kick return. Is he the new Desmond Howard? Warrick's neon green gloves make the Seahawks uniform look beautiful in comparison.
7:10 pm: Al Michaels with the night's first low blow. ABC cameras spot a Matt Hasselbeck look-alike in the stands. Michaels notes that the fan haHasselbeck's's "haircut" and by haircut he means "lack of hair."
7:14 pm: WE HAVE A CODE BLACK!!!!!
7:20 pm: Big Ben throws an interception. Maybe he was out with Kyle Orton last night? This brings us to an interesting question: Who looks like the biggest jackass? Big Ben, Orton, or Leinart?
7:21 pm: Ken sends another text message about the Seahawks. Ken - you are not a Seattle fan. Stop pretending to be one and stop sending mass text messages.
7:26 pm: Berman is doing play-by-play for The Shaggy Dog. This is why we hate ESPN. We also can't wait for the all the talking heads on ESPN to start discussing the two questionable calls in the first half of this game. I hope Jay Marrioti's head actually explodes when he pretends to be upset on Around the Horn.
7:29 pm: Al Michaels just said the Super Bowl was about as neutral as Lake Placid in the 1980 Winter Olympics. Did he just compare the Seattle Seahawks to the Soviets?
7:35 pm: Big Ben just made one of the most heads-up plays we have ever seen a quarterback make. All we need to nut our pants is a Jerome Bettis touchdown on the goal line.
7:39 pm: Gillette has a razor with 5 blades!!! Are you kidding? I hope it comes with gauze and bandages. That thing is like putting a lawn mower on your face.
7:40 pm: Roethlisberger scores on a ridiculous dive into the end zone. We're waiting for the inevitable challenge and then the inevitable 5 minute lecture about how "referees in the National Football League will not overturn a call unless there is indisputable evidence that the play on the field was incorrect."
7:52 pm: Apparently Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb are playing for the Seahawks now. With 48 seconds left in the half, Hasselbeck wastes 20 seconds at the line of scrimmage doing his best Peyton Manning impression. Bonehead play. Now the Seahawks have to kick a 54 yard field goal which goes wide right.
8:06 pm - 8:19 pm: The Rolling Stones are on. Please wake me up when the second half starts. By the way, someone mentioned that Eminem should be performing at half time. Right. I'm sure the NFL would just love that...
Actually, I take it back - the Rolling Stones are really cool. But I would still like to see Hov at halftime. I also swear to everyone reading this that I will learn how to dance like Mick Jagger and put a video of that on the blog soon. Did anyone notice he stole the Will Farrell dance move from "Zoolander" during the brain washing scene? And was he saying "And I Twy"?
8:33 pm: We've singing the Pittsburgh fight song. Please feel free to join in (Thanks to coach Filice for pointing this out):

The D
Well, I guess we all knew this was going to happen at some point this week. A bored sportswriter has apparently gotten fed up with all the free food and booze that's been thrown at him and has decided to rip Detroit.
Rick Telander's column in the Chicago Sun Times is a piece of garbage. Now, the Realests don't usually take things too seriously but there are a few things that you can't make fun of: Hov, Pistons, Redskins, Zoolander, any MTV reality show, and Detroit. Telander has decided to take on the city of Detroit. I know that Telander is a pretty big sports writer, but how does his editor let him write something like this?
After reading the column, its pretty evident that its just a ploy to grab the spotlight for a few minutes so that Jim Rome and the boneheads on Around the Horn can spend a segment discussing all the reasons why the Super Bowl shouldn't have been put in Detroit. But, in all honesty, that horse was beaten to death a few years ago when the NFL decided to give Detroit the Super Bowl. And then it was beaten to death at the start of the NFL season. In fact, my growing seed of discontent with ESPN began when I read the Sports Guy say that he wasn't going to the Super Bowl this year just because of its location. Well, the story is over and done with folks.
Now, Detroit is far from perfect, but the city has been making great strides over the last couple of years and especially in the last couple of months. I don't know why sports columnists feel the need to turn their columns into a referendum on the problems of urban Detroit - they certainly aren't experts on the problems of urban flight, unemployent, and urban revitalization. The fact is that they should be writing about sports. And if they would just do that then then the world would know that Detroit is a great sports town. In the last year alone Detroit and its suburbs have been host to 2 NBA Finals, the MLB All-Star Game, and the Super Bowl. Why not focus on the positives? Why not focus on how Detroit is a great sports town? How the fans in Detroit are some of the most loyal and knowledgeable in the country? How the Red Wings were the closest thing that hockey has seen to a dynasty in the last 20 years? How the Pistons have single-handedly brought the "team" concept back to the NBA? How MSU basketball has been a national powerhouse? How Michigan football continues to disappoint year after year? (Sorry, had to put that one in there - Fire Lloyd!!!)
They city of Detroit has shown a lot of resilience in the last few years and the feeling in the air is that things will turn around soon (granted, I don't live in/near Detroit anymore so I'm not sure exactly what the air is like). I mean, after all, even Jimmy Kimmel is spending a week in Detroit.
After reading Telander's column, take a look at Michael Wilbon's piece.

The Genesis
In a way, this is what started it all.
I'm very thankful that 1/2 of The Realests wrote this article. It was the start of a movement. After you read the article, note the number of comments left about it. It was the most commented-on article in The Michigan Daily's history. That says something. It says that 1/2 of the Realests has the unique gift of pissing people off wherever he goes. Its uncanny, its skillful, its a way of life.
I recently had a chance to sit down with 1/2 of the Realests and interview him. The transcript will be posted in the next couple of days...For now, enjoy the article.

Mike Anchondo
You probably don't know who Mike Anchondo is. Don't worry - we do.
Jim and I play a lot of video games. Now, put aside the fact that we are grown-ass men and that we still scream like little girls a lot of the time when we are playing them. Focus on the fact that we play video games...a lot of them.
We played Fight Night 2004 in college. It's a pretty good boxing game. Now, by far the best part of the game is the slow motion replays where the boxer's legs get wobbly and they fall on their faces. Jim was never very good at Fight Night (I had played more and am generally much much better at video games) so I would let him be the G.O.A.T - Muhammad Ali - and I would be a Featherweight - Mike Anchondo. Let's just say that Mike Anchondo got a few shots in on the Greatest but he always ended up hitting the mat. And he hit the mat pretty hard. At some point we'll get a video up of video game Mike Anchondo falling down...
Anyway, since a lot of you say that you have no idea what we are saying most of the time, this should be a pretty useful post. Ever since playing Fight Night, we have referred to someone falling flat on their face as an "Anchondo." For example, "We are going to go to Joe's and Waverly until we Anchondo on the street."
Now, ladies and gentlemen, we present you with the perfect Anchondo.
(Keep your volume up when you watch the clip)
So for everyone that told us that we had sold out and become to "artsy" with our creative interpretation of 24 - "Respect the King"

USA Today Somehow Finds Way To Lose MORE Credibility
Tough break for whoever put this up on their website:

"She didn't earn this," Springer told the Post. "It was like picking on a handicapped person."
Who should feel more insulted - Prince or the coach's own team????

A few reasons to hate the New Jersey Nets
I hate the NJ Nets...they are an infuriating franchise. Everyone fell in love with them a few years back when they made a couple of trips to the Finals and got the crap kicked out of them both times.
But let's remember a few things about them:
1. Jason Kidd is an asshole despite blowing kisses to his wife before every free throw.
In January of 2001, Jason Kidd was arrested when he “smacked” Joumana. According to the police report, Mrs. Kidd wanted to go to the gym and asked Jason to feed their son TJ. Jason took a French fry from TJ’s plate and was then reminded by Joumana not to eat TJ’s food because “there wasn’t very much”.
A multi-millionaire basketball player and not enough food to feed his son, but enough to send his woman to the gym. Okay….
Then, Kidd turns and spits a fry into Joumana’s face. While holding a container of yogurt in his hand, he strikes Joumana in the face. Again, that was according to the police report. Anyway, she runs into the bedroom, he kicks in the door… yadda yadda yadda. Now how one holds a container of yogurt while beating his wife and why it was relevant to the police report is beyond me.
"Don't worry about me," she said, "this is minor compared to what I usually go through."
Remember that quote when you see the repeated video clip of Jason saying that Bob Ryan should apologize.
So Jason was arrested but not prosecuted after he agreed to tolerate domestic violence and anger management counseling for six months and he paid a whopping $200 fine.
2. Richard Jefferson is a whiny little bitch. And his tattoo is incredibly stupid.
3. Who makes fun of someone for having a kidney disease?!?!
Mourning snapped in reaction to the frustration of the drills, the team's troubles on the court and the cavalier attitude he has perceived during the Nets' 5-6 start this season. Mourning stalked over to where the players were laughing and, in a profanity-laden diatribe, shouted in part: "This ain't funny. This is about winning."
Richard Jefferson, a third-year forward who was one of the players who were laughing, told Mourning that indeed it wasn't funny, it was "hilarious."
When Kenyon Martin, a fourth-year forward, jumped in by mocking Mourning's recent performance on the court and commenting that Mourning would not have to run if he would improve his rebounding, Mourning attacked Martin's leadership and toughness.
Mourning, who signed with the Nets this summer after kidney disease cost him all of last season and nearly the entire 2000-1 season, told Martin: "At least I'm out there on the court, not in the training room. I'm trying to make the best of my time."
"You can't be a leader in the trainer's room crying, `My ankle, my ankle,' " Mourning added, referring to the sprained ankle that sidelined Martin for five games. Martin responded by mocking Mourning, muttering, "My kidney, my kidney."
Mourning did not immediately react to that comment. But when the players separated into groups for the next part of practice, he suddenly charged toward Martin before being restrained by teammates as he yelled, using more profanity: "What did you say about my kidney? Don't talk about my kidney. I'll put you on your back."
Teammates halted Mourning and kept him and Martin from getting close enough to come to blows. Meanwhile, Coach Byron Scott, who had watched from the far side of the court as the altercation began, stepped in front of Martin and spoke calmly to him.
The practice then resumed with Mourning and Martin not speaking to each other. The Nets' vice president for public relations, Gary Sussman, said later that neither player would be available to reporters.
Now, I don't even like Alonzo Mourning, but I'll get his back on this one.

I guess what this whole things comes down to is the fact that the Pistons lost to the Nets last night...

Some good stuff in here (especially the stuff on Curt Schilling, the No. 3 most hated athlete). Our only question is, where is Ricky Davis?
