T.G.I.F. Link Dump
It sure is a crappy week to be Cliff Lee. Thinking that perhaps Roy Halliday would be joining him in Philadelphia for another run at a Phillies World Championship, Cliff got a call hunting for deer in Arkansas that he was being dealt to the Seattle Mariners. Lucky for the deer I guess.
It is faster to row across an ocean naked rather than closed. Fact or Fiction? Apparently the Brits know the answer. Two British women will attempt to break a world record rowing across the Atlantic in the buff. Sounds ridiculous, but true.
If it’s a crappy week to be Cliff Lee, it has been the month from hell for Tiger Woods. The latest report from CNN has indicated that Tiger and his wife, Elin Nordegren, have already begun the divorce process. Can’t say this comes as a huge surprise.
Probably wayyyyyy to soon to make a joke about Elin Nordegren chasing Chris Henry with a 7-iron, so I won’t. If Chad Ochocinco can be a real person about the passing of Bengals WR Chris Henry, then it has to be too soon. Tragic loss for the NFL and West Virginia.
For the handful of you who enjoy soccer, you’ll love this. For those of you who don’t … get over yourself. Jose Mourinho will return to Chelsea with Inter as the two world powers have been drawn to meet in the first knockout round of the Champions League.
For those of you lucky enough to have stood alongside me and 71,281 other die-hards on December 28, 2008 as the Bills fell to the Patriots 0-13, you certainly remember this moment. The conditions were so bad that the goal posts had to be centered three times before game time, and again in the second quarter before Gostkowski missed a 26-yard attempt. Another stoppage came in the third quarter, when referee Gene Steratore had his hat blown off and was forced to chase it 20 yards down-field in front of a cheering crowd. I’ll be there this weekend too, so here’s to another Buffalo classic!
At the end of this Forbes.com link, Christina Settimi says Eagles QB Michael Vick, Bills wide receiver Terrell Owens and former Steelers coach-turned-NFL broadcaster Bill Cowher will all join the Chicago Bears:
