Iraq banned from 2008 Olympics.
Umm…why exactly?
“Ongoing political interference in the sports movement”?? Whatever the fuck that means.
In that case, perhaps the ridiculous IOC should ban China, too.

Well, it was nice while it lasted.
Four days after nearly making history at the British Open, Greg Norman labored to a 4-over 75 Thursday in the opening round of the Seniors British Open.
Non-stop European blowjobs from Chrissy Evert must have put a kink in his giddy-up.
Back to obscurity, Shark.
Wicked billionaire and devout White Sox fan Sam Zell has invited at least three potential buyers who each submitted bids for the Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Field near or above $1 billion to participate in a second round of proposals, according to ESPN.com.
Included in the second round are Internet billionaire and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban; the Ricketts family, which founded the online brokerage that is now TD Ameritrade Holding Corp.; and a group led by Sports Acquisition Holding Corp. that includes former baseball home run king Henry Aaron and former Republican Congressman Jack Kemp. The last group is believed to be teaming with another bidder who submitted an offer in the initial ‘round’.
Notably absent from the list is John Canning of the private equity firm Madison Dearborn Partners, who sits right behind home plate at Wrigley Field during Cubs night games and wears a pink hat as if screaming, “Look at me! I will be your new master, Cubs fans!”

Carmelo Anthony said no one from the Nuggets has talked with him about any long-term plans, but he insisted that even if nothing else was done by the front office, there will be some changes next season. Most notably, Anthony said, is his goal of taking on a much greater role in leading the team.
“I’ve gotta become more vocal -- nobody else wants to step up and take that role, so I’m going to do it. Whether it turns out good or bad, I’ll take the blame,” he said. “Last year I took the blame for what went on the playoffs. I kinda got in trouble by saying we quit, which I thought we did.”
This dude just doesn’t get it. You don’t tell people in advance you are going to take the blame for potential failures…you just do it when, and if, it happens.
Also, it would forever help your situation if you publicly distanced yourself from your ‘stop snitching’ past, dummy.
RIP, old friend. All our love.
Isn't life amazing?
The same day we get over 150,000 page views...thanks mostly to the brilliant Jimmy Traina at SI.com's Extra Mustard...easily the best day yet for Clubhouse Cancer...is the same day we lose our beloved best friend, Bud.
Fuck you, world.
Luckily, they still make Jack Daniel's.
