Green Bay Packer Brett Favre is considering coming out of “retirement.” Apparently, he’s got the “itch” to play, and he’s talked to coach McCarthy about showing up at training camp.
Utterly ridiculous. First off, you don’t get to come out of retirement if you never actually missed playing time. Yeah, Favre had a retirement press conference, but there haven’t been any games to miss. He wouldn’t be returning, because he never really left in the first place.
Secondly, what the hell are the Packers thinking to have him back? It’s time to move on. Go with Aaron Rodgers. If he sucks, give Favre a call. But this is a giant distraction just waiting to happen. Frankly, I feel bad for Rodgers either way. He’s got to have a shot sometime, right? Fuck. Just when you think a guy might actually ride off into the sunset with a teary-eyed goodbye, he’s got to go and grandstand.

Thought that last start against Cleveland was a sign? Think again. Barry Zito was roughed up for five funs on six hits and five walks over five innings in a 9-2 home loss against the Chicago Cubs.

The first cardboard bike has been created by Phil Bridge, a design student from the UK. The design is almost finalized as the last few kinks are being worked out. The frame is completely made of cardboard so it’s all recycled and VERY green. The wheels are standard bike wheels made of rubber and metal but you won’t find any other materials besides carboard. It can hold a person up to 168 pounds and only costs $6 to make!! Retail value is around $25. This is awesome.

And just like that, the Shaquille O’Neal era of Maricopa County law enforcement has ended.
After O’Neal lambasted Kobe Bryant in a “freestyle” rap, in which the word “nigga” was used, Maricopa County sheriff Joe Arpaio stripped O’Neal of his ceremonial honors.
The whole situation is ridiculous. Shaq was about as much of a cop as I am a seven-foot NBA center.

Yeah. Before the Ultimate Warrior was the Ultimate Warrior, he was known as the Dingo Warrior in the lesser known World Class Championship Wrestling Association. This interview clip, in which the Dingo talks about smearing puke on his opponent, is circa 1986.
