    DeSagana Diop It Like It's Hot

    Crazydeliciousness I pondered between 714 and 715...

    Every weekend there's a PGA event, I wonder where Tiger finished. If there's an IRL race, I wonder where Danica finished. Outside of that, the outcome doesn't matter to me all that much. That said, I am looking forward to the U.S. Open in a few weeks. Can Phil Mickelson make it three in a row? Will Tiger even be in the house? Will David Duval shoot a 90?

    I don't watch American Idol, but I don't see how they can "sell" this Taylor Hicks guy. He's a 29-year-old "honky-tonk" singer who looks old enough to be Lawrence Frank's father. Last time I checked, the honky-tonk Billboard charts aren't exactly burning up. He won't wind up in Justin Guariniville, but it'll be pretty close.

    Fred Smoot and Bryant McKinnie plead guilty on Friday to two charges: disorderly conduct and being a public nuisance on a watercraft. The two agreed to pay a $1,000 fine and perform 48 hours of community service. "Being a public nuisance on a watercraft" is probably the greatest thing you can be charged with in the history of civilization. I honestly think you can put that in the section of a job application that asks you if you've ever been charged with a crime, and it would actually get you a job. Because anyone who has ever been charged with that is someone who knows how to have a good time, and every office needs a person like that. And if you told me beforehand that I could attend the infamous "Lake Minnetonka" party and only have to pony up a grand and perform a little community service, I not only take that deal, I bring the beer.

    The NFL is seriously considering playing two regular season games outside of the U.S. in 2008, with England and Germany as two of the four possible sites. The only way I can see a game in Europe working is if the league picks two teams coming off of a bye and having them play on Thursday or Friday of that next week, after which they could return home and get themselves back on their regular schedule. However it's ultimately done, it's going to seriously throw a team out of their routine, and I can't see any organization volunteering for that.

    Rest in peace, Ironhead.
