THis is a new thing i will put up every Saturday listing the top ten things that DRIVE ME CRAZY from this week
#10- Roger Clemens- Okay I loved Roger as a pitcher and I respected him as one of the best players of the era but COME ON!! I am tired of the recaps of his hearing and all the theories about what happend. He should admit that he did it and just get this all over with.
#9- Bill Freakin Belichick!- I dont care about the STUPID Spygate thing, what is so aboslutly horrible about this? He taped a couple of games OOOOO wat are we gonna do, aparently take it to Congress!! We all know he is not the only coach doing this but he is the only one STUPID enough to get caught!!.
#8- Ashley Judd- Well apparently Dario Franchitti's wife Ashley Judd isnt quite important enough yet to be able to break dress code, i understand the no short pants rule for men and the open toe shoes for anyone it is a safety issue but no dresses?? is she going to get sucked up into a giant garage fan and have it get ripped up?? i dont see the problem but i think if nascar doesnt want her to do it she shouldnt and just wear jeans a team t-shirt and a ball cap like the rest of the wives!
#7- Everyone thinks Dale Jr is going to have a great season because he got some luck and won the Bud Shootout and a Duel WHOO HOO!!! This cannot project how the rest of his season is going to go.
#6- I have no idea what this Kelvin Sampson dude did at Indiana... it sounds like he made some bad phone calls about something or another and then lied about some stuff, I DONT CARE!! So people just shut up about it!
#5- NBA sissys, all the babies in the NBA, like Kobe Bryant with that torn ligament in his finger, OH NO hes gonna die! I say we load these babies up in some hockey pads and see if they survive getting hit by 200+ pound men, the hockey guys play with broken BONES!! and this sissy is complaining about a hurt pinky finger.
#4- Okay i will go ahead and voice my opinions Golf, I cant stand it. It has to be the most boring "sport" to watch on TV oh my god i just dont get what is entertaining about it. I say we should ban Golf on TV and put on a better sport to fill up the time spot.
#3- There is no love for NASCAR on TV ever!! It is the day before the biggest race of the season and a GOLF tournament that NO ONE CARES ABOUT is getting more air time than it is. The day after a race the winner might get a whole 10 seconds of air time on Sportscenter but Some stupid basketball game between two teams who no one cares about gets 2 or 3 minutes. WHY??
#2- Its halfway through the regular season in NBA basketball WOOP-DE-DOO!! Most of the teams have played around 50 games, and now it is time for everyones "favorite" time of the NBA season, the All Star game or as i call it "THE GATHERING OF THE EGOS!!!!" WHo cares about it No one is gonna watch it!
#1- The top thing bothering me right now is how Dook fans are still bragging about how great they did when the beat Carolina, i dont know if i was the only one who actually watched that game but neither of the teams did a good job! Everywhere you looked the entire game there was one player from each team with his #### on the floor!! Come on just wait till March 8!!
I think you're on to something with your Top Ten. Although I disagree with you about Kelvin Sampson (he SHOULD be fired for LYING to IU administrators AND breaking NCAA rules), I do agree with you to a point about #3. Seems that a nonmajor golf tournament has more highlights than the FREAKING Daytona 500! Oh, and ESPN also thinks that if it's not NY vs. Boston, it's not worth covering at all.
Oh my. Chad Knaus looks like you are next. Hey Mikey! what was that substance found in your intake last year? Better plan on a trip to Washington, D.C.
Ashley Judd in a dress in the pits. UMM. Keep the pit crew away from the air hoses and every thing will be fine.

Bill Bellichick wasn't stupid enough to get caught. Jets coach Mangini turned on him. I am not condoning anything - just can't get over the #### mob mentality. I almost hope at this point - that the Patriots start to defend themselves - and the rest all comes out. It might take a few more secrets coming out to let people see the whole truth about all teams in the NFL........
IM WITH YOU ON THE N.B.A. THIS LEAUGE IS A FAR CRY FROM WHAT IT USED TO BE AND WILL THEY EVER CALL TRAVELING? HELL I'D BE GOOD IN THERE TO IF I COULD TAKE SIX STEPS BEFORE SHOOTING THE BALL.
AND AS FAR AS DRESS CODE IN THE PITS ,PEOPLE NEED TO WAKE UP IF YOU DON'T THINK PIT ROW IS FULL OF DANGER THEN YOU DESERVE WHATEVER BAD THING HAPPENS JUST USE COMMON SENSE.
AND AS FAR AS SAMPSON HE PROBABLY GOT CAUGHT DOING WHAT EVERY OTHER COACH DOES.
10. Divorce laws.
9. Divorce lawyers.
8. Winter Weather.
7. Gas/Fuel Oil Prices.
6. Can't drive my Hot Rod because of #8.
5. The Bush Jr. Administration.
4. Hillary v Obama v McCain
3. No Smoking ordinances
2. Ex Wife.
1. My girlfriend has to work 16 hour days while her boss is at Speed Week. This has negatively impacted my sex life, hence the highest ranking.
As for Ashley Judd....
I don't care what she wears, the skimpier the better though, IMO. But honestly, regardless of what she wears to the track, you can see a whole lot more of her if you have a NetFlix membership! LOL!

So i guess i should continue this column each week so you all can keep giving me your opinions???
i guess this all gives me topics to talk about for some of the week...
10. I agree. Roger should have learned from Pete Rose. Just admit it, take your lumps, and move on. We will forgive honest people. Now, if he lied to congress, he is in real trouble.
9. Belichick was certainly stupid and arrogant! Of course his former coach would roll on him. I do think it will get worse before it goes away. Now they're talking about taping pregame walk-throughs. By the way, if everyone is doing it, where are their tapes?
8. She should follow the rules like everyone else.
7. Dale Jr. has not shown that he can be the man all season long. He'll do alright, but not dominate.
6. Sampson is done. He made 500 bad phone calls and lied about it. Bye Bye X 500
5. First of all, most NBA players are larger than NHL players and they have quite a bit of contact. Not like hockey contact, but contact. How would you like to have a torn ligament and a fractured finger and have it get hit, every time you dribble and bend every time you shoot. Not to mention getting slapped and grabbed at every chance the other team gets? He just wants to skip the all-star game, not the season or the Olympics. Most people would have gotten the surgery right away.
4. I'm not a huge golf watcher, but I do know that those who do not golf, do not like watching it. These guys are very skilled at a very difficult sport. Try doing what they do and you may appreciate it more.
3. NASCAR is growing, but it has not reached the level of the three major sports. Much like hockey, it has people who love it, and people who care nothing about it. Not enough people in between
(cont)
2. No argument here.
1. Winning ugly is still winning. However, Duke should act like no win is an upset for them. They are supposed to be an elite program, act like it. You don't see the Patriots acting surprised they won a game.
Most of what you've listed is subjective, and as such, is your opinion, which makes this site run. I disagree with you about golf, although I'm a NASCAR fan too. As far as doing this once a week, why not? It was an interesting read.
im gonna do what bolt backer did, give my opinion on each one
10. I agree roger clemens just needs to accept that he did it and move on.
9.The fact that he got caught makes it a problem, he should have hidden it better and yes, it became a matter that went to congress because some people don't realize that everyone does it so they are saying he cheated that game, it could have effected the outcome of the season.
8. No opinion
7.i agree, neither of those can really say that he will be incredible this year, but we will see
6.If this is what people care about then let the talk about it. He messed up and deserves to get people talking about him.
5.I currently have a sprained right thumb and i tore a ligament in it. It sounds a lot worse than you think. Just because in the Nba it isn't a "contact sport" doesnt mean he is a sissy. They are playing basketball because they are talented in that area, just like hockey players play hockey because they are good at hitting people. In my opinion hockey is a sport for people with anger managment issues that need some psychological help.
4.Golf is intense when its a close game with a few holes left. People enjoy watching Tiger pull off a win/ getting upset, leave it on the air. Just because you dont like it that doesn't mean everyone else doesn't like it.
3.Nascar is more exciting than golf? You see people driving around a circular track for X laps. Repetitive enough? Basketball game is more popular than Nascar and more exciting to people. You can show clips of a basketball game, what can you show of a nascar race? the 213th lap
wreck? Basketball is the most watched sport so they show more clips. As simple as that
2. The Nba Allstar break isn't only the game, It's a bunch of people having fun in a competition. They have a 3 point contest, for the best shooters to see who is the best, a dunk contest to see who can do the best freestyle dunk, and An ALLSTAR game to have the best match up with the best. It is purely for fun and for people to watch it. It was watched by Millions of people. In the Allstar game, Yao ming(7 foot 6 chinese center) took 2-3 point shots. He missed them by a lot BUT he had fun. THats all that mattered to them.
1. DUKE VS NORTH CAROLINA was an amazing game. It was two NCAA powerhouses and 2 of the biggest rivals duking it out to see who was better. They were hustling, diving on the floor for loose balls, taking charges on defense, and just giving it their all. I plan to see them play twice more this season and both times it will be an amazing game.
On a lighter note i enjoy comparing my ideas to yours, all of this is for fun i'm not trying to start anything, but keep making these!! they are great
I am an all around sports fan I love every sport except Golf and the NBA, i am a swimmer and i play softball, i love Nascar, NHL, MLB, and NCAA Basketball for the rest of my favorites go read my first blog
I am really just looking for a good place to voice my Sports Opinions!!!
