CR7 now a Galactico

It's official. Newly-elected Real Madrid Florentino Perez has delivered on his promise to bring in star power to the Spanish capital.

Manchester United has agreed to sell superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to the Spanish giants for a world record $132M.

Didn't see this coming sooner than the David Villa transfer. Anyway, CR7 must now choose a jersey number since Spanish legend Raul owns Madrid's #7.

Next up for the Los Merengues are Spanish striker David Villa (Valencia) and French midfielder Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich). Coincidentally, like Raul and Ronaldo, both Villa and Ribery also wear the number 7.

Con-Ass protest via FB

People are trying to mount a crusade against the Con-Ass by creating a Facebook group/cause. I don't care if they invite or recruit their friends and then some but that won't deter the Congressmen from pursuing their plans.

It's amazing and flabbergasting how stupid people can become.

Magic win first ever Finals game

Game 3 turned out to be a best case scenario for me. The Magic won while the Lakers covered. I'm not so sure Game 4 will have a similar result though.

The Mamba is furious. I'll bet he has his gameface-cum-scowl back on.

Galacticos reload Vol. World's best

First it was Kaka. Now it's David Villa. Next up? Hopefully Cristiano Ronaldo.

Real Madrid is creepin' on the come up.

Suffer-ink

The worst part of getting a tattoo is not the pain. It's the aftercare. Fuckin' hassle to the highest level.

Sour Apple

Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

Apple is getting desperate now with the company slashing prices for its iPhone and Macbook models in an obvious effort to gain more market share.

Nice try but they'll never overtake any of their major competitors in either industry. They should just to stick to iPods.

Suns vs. Nuggets on Jimmy Kimmel

Chris Andersen & Dahntay Jones of the Denver Nuggets face off against Grant Hill & Amare Stoudemire of the Phoenix Suns in "The Team Mating Game" on Jimmy Kimmel Live: Game Night.




Hilarious stuff.

Act a fool

I was out cold last night. I don't remember shit. I dunno how I got to my room. I even left the living room lights and television on. I think I sleepwalked myself to bed.

When I woke up, I was like, "WTF just happened?"

All these and I wasn't even remotely close to being drunk. Didn't even have anything to drink!

I blame exhaustion.

Another US lawmaker with messed up priorities

One US congressman is questioning the NBA's age limit rule. According to the league's collective bargaining agreement with the players' association, an American citizen wishing to join the draft must be at least 19 years old and one year removed from his high school class.

The congressman is concerned over the rule on the basis of age discrimination. Did he even bother looking at his own backyard? Last I checked, the US Congress has it's own minimum age rule (25 years old).

Someone tell this scrub to clean out his backyard first. Better yet, he should move on to more urgent and important matters like tackling recession.

Delusional denial

The wife of the lone Filipino passenger aboard the Air France flight that recently crashed into the Atlantic Ocean believes that her husband is still alive. She remains positive despite the authorities are saying it's highly unlikely that anyone could've survived.

I don't mean to ridicule her misery but this is just plain dumb. Ignoring the facts will just prolong her agony. Acceptance is the key.

Channeling Mamba

I'm still way too exhausted. But I'm still fuckin' elated.

I killed on the court last night, scoring from a variety of ways and hitting shots from everywhere. More importantly, I led my team to three tough race-to-forty wins, nailing the gamewinner in one.

Still floatin' on hoops nirvana.

Air France Flight 447

I'm still puzzled how an airplane as big as an Airbus A330 can just vanish without much of a trace. Sometimes even the most modern of technology seems rather useless. Took a page right our of the Bermuda Triangle chronicles.

Damn weather

What the fuck is up with the weather? It's been raining hard nonstop since Sunday and this has basically done nothing but mess up my plans.

Not a good look at all.

Missing ink action

My freakin' tattoo artist flaked out on me last night. Dude wasn't answering his phone to reconfirm my appointment. I swear he always does this shit. Hell yeah, I'm pissed.

What an ass.

Unbecoming of a King

Lebron James stormed off the Amway Arena after the blowout loss his team suffered against the Orlando Magic. He never bothered to shake hands, congratulate or even acknowledge any of the Magic players.

After all the showboating during the 4-0 sweeps over Detroit and Atlanta, the King suddenly disappears in front of a worldwide audience. No handshakes, no hugs, no words.

Humble in victory, gracious in defeat. Lebron James has none of that.

That's just one of the many reasons he'll never be like Mike.

Witness weakness

Fuck the fix.

Orlando it is.

Lebron had his witnesses. But Dwight got the verdict.

Battling the fix

David Stern just got his first wish as Kobe and the Lakers are through to the Finals. Now it's up to Orlando to fight the fix and close out Lebron and the Cavaliers in Game 6 later.

It'll be tough because everyone knows the calls are all going to be for the King despite being on the road. But if Orlando waxes hot and they keep making their shots, Stern and company can't do jack about it.

I hope the Magic finish this one in blowout fashion so they can stick all the refs' whistles up David Stern's ass.

Sunday morning hoops

Went 4-1 in tough scrimmages last night. It got my body a little banged up with a couple of bruises here and there but I'm all good though. Ready to hit the courts again in a bit for an early morning runout. Game time is at 8am. Too bad I'll miss much of Game 6 of the Cleveland-Orlando series. I hope I get back in time to see the Magic finish off the Cavaliers.

Wanting Kobe 4 whiteouts

I am so tempted to cop my first ever Kobe sneaker. I've never had any of his sigs and I still intend on keeping it that way. So help me God.

The fix is still on

David Stern can breathe a sigh of relief, at least for another day. His dream for a Kobe-Lebron championship series is still alive.

The Orlando Magic had their chances in Game 5 but ultimately fumbled in the fourth quarter. As expected, it didn't help the Magic's cause that the refs were riding the King's jock again.

The fix was a bit more obvious in Game 5 of the Denver-LA series as all 50-50 calls in the fourth quarter went the Lakers' way. Still, Denver had their opportunities too, but they played terrible basketball in the final period. Chauncey Billups was totally out-of-sync. He looked like a rookie with all the stupid turnovers and poor decisions.

I hope the Nuggets get their act together and win Game 6 tomorrow at the Pepsi Center then hopefully squeak past the NBA fix for Game 7 in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Orlando has a real solid chance of closing Cleveland out at home on Sunday.

Count me in as one of the few who don't want to see a Mamba-King duel in the Finals. I can just imagine how much of a slurpfest that would be.
