Random News Shit: SportsCenter Edition

Relief pitcher Mariano Rivera (R) of the New York Yankees celebrates with Alex Rodriguez (L) after beating the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 5-2 in Game 6 of their Major League Baseball ALCS playoff series in New York, October 25, 2009.
1) Yankees Win ALCS; Headed To World Series
Strong win by the Yanks. The World Series will get poppin' Wednesday night against the Phillies in New York. Lets take this time to thank the Cleveland Indians for sponsoring game 1 as CC Sabathia will face off against Cliff Lee, better luck with the Cavs.

Speaking of baseball...

2) ESPN Fires Steve Phillips
I thought ESPN was going to let Steve slide with that bullshit "leave of absence" last week, but nope, they fired his ass. I'm glad to because he deserves it for cheating on his wife with somebody that busted. I mean, its one thing that he cheated on his wife, but damn, with that bitch?? C'mon son!

Anyway, you know what was really funny?? ESPN wrote a story about it AND talked about it on SportsCenter last night! Creep! Tough break nigga.

3) Bradford To Enter NFL Draft After Surgery
Good job making the right decision one year later dumbass. This all just goes to show, if you have a chance to go to the league and that money, do it!

4) Chad Ocho Cinco Starts The OCNN
You guessed it, the Ocho Cinco News Network! Our boy Estaban is gonna try his hand in breaking news!

Unfortunately, he plans on doing it via Twitter and not by way of his own website, but its still a good idea nonetheless. I mean just check out the slogan:

"If I break it, you might as well believe it."

It don't get no better than that lol.

5) Ocho Cinco Fined $10K For Wrong Color Chin Strap
This actually went down Friday, but I never got a chance to write about it. Officially it goes in as a "uniform violation" but where I'm from, we just call it BULLSHIT! Seriously, you fined someone for wearing a black chin strap?? I guess I could understand if it was like lime green or something, but black?? Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!

6) Jets Leon Washington Out For Season
Another blow for this New York Jets team. Leon is to the Jets what Felix Jones is to the Cowboys, but the only difference is that we have a Tashard Choice to help out as well as our starter Marion Barber. All the Jets have is Thomas Jones. Welp, we'll see how this goes.
