If I were to make a list of all the NFL players who'd likely be involved in a shooting. Marvin Harrison would be nowhere near it.
For years I'd heard Marvin Harrison was one of the truly good guys. The fact his name is anywhere near a Philly shooting is unreal. That would be like saying that Roger Clemens was allegedly messing with a young girl....
Oh wait.
Know who needs credit here? Mrs. Clemens. The last 6 months...her husband has been accused of cheating to achieve his hall of fame career, asked to not go near the olympic team, possibly lying under oath to congress....then accused by her own husband of being the one taking steroids...now country singers, golf wives and strippers are all speaking out about their affairs with Rocket Roger. I've stopped caring about Roger, I want to hear Mrs. Rocket speak out. That's an interview I wouldn't miss!
Speaking of out of line husbands. Brett Myers? Hi, remember you used to dominate with a 95 mph fastball? Can you turn down the "GARBAGE" and go back to kicking it like you used to? With Adam "I walked Randy Johnson on 4 straight pitches" Eaton turning back into his normal awful Adam Eaton self, we could really use the help. Thanks.
One more husband mention. Nick Cannon. You've gone from DRUMLINE...
.... to MARIAH.
Kudos to you sir. Kudos.
In less happy news. Ronaldo, one of my favorite soccer players. Hangs out with transgender hookers.
Just for anyone keeping score of my JERSEY curse. I bought a Ronaldo Brazil National in Europe in 1997. The curse of any jersey I buy is in full effect...just ask Ryan Howard...
Who's jersey I proudly own. Ryan is currently hitting .173. I blame myself. I will hang up your jersey in my closet until you straighten everything out. I'm sorry Ryan. I blame myself. Because of your slump, Shane Victorino needs to collide with people to get on base. If anything Ryan, snap out of your slump so Shane can take a lesser beating.
Hey Chicago? That guy Gavin Floyd? The one who almost threw 2 no hitters in one month? Yep, we gave him to you for Freddy "ONE WIN" Garcia. You guys REALLY won that trade. Congratulations. Can you send him back? I didn't think so. Never hurts to ask.
"Dear LeBron, I can help. Am I good at basketball? No. But neither are your other teammates. At least I'll try my best."
So apparently Hockey IS still a sport. Apparently the Flyers are doing well at this sport. Way to be fellas.
Happy Belated Cinquo De Mayo. I just love those party holidays.
Don't get me wrong, I don't think they should, but with the number of athletes who have been attacked, robbed, and even murdered you can kind of understand why some of them feel safer with a weapon.
Even having a bodyguard doesn't work, because if the bodyguard gets too agressive and hurts someone, the player is still going to have a hassel.
Of course staying out of dangerous situations would be the answer, but as we saw last season even staying in your own home doesn't always work either.
I STILL think its funny speaking of firearms??? people say (the gun kills)??? well try a experiment ok sit a gun on a table... then ask it to kill someone??? remember dont pick it up!!! why?? isnt it shooting?????? just had to get it off my chest!!!!!!
and speaking of country singers?? im sure everyone has heard of the saying... you know when you quit listening to country music???? your wife/husband comes back!!! you quit drinking!!!! your dog or cat returns!!!!!!!
I was born in NYC, but grew up about 25 minutes outside of Philly. Therefore I'm a long suffering Philly fan. I attended the Phils game where everyone threw batteries at JD DREW. I've been a Phils Fan for about 21 years. I lost that lovin feeling for Hockey after the strike. I watch soccer and watched MAN U when they had Roy Keane. Losing the 1993 World Series against Toronto still hurts. The Eagles losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002 has developed a long standing resentment of Jon Gruden and his dumb sun visor. The Sixers will be just fine. Though they stress me out. Often. I went to a bunch of colleges, none had football teams. So I've adopted the UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE FIGHTING BLUE HENS.
