Friday Free For All…..Volume 15.0

Friday Free For All…..Volume 15.0

By: J-Shannon

You’ve got to love this time of year. It has been 70 degrees or warmer all week, the NCAA basketball season is approaching March Madness, Friday marks opening day for the NCAA baseball season, and the 2011 NASCAR season is dropping the Green Flag this weekend. Oh yes, spring is in the air, and it feels just about as good as an ice cold ‘Merican, but not quite. I myself have a solid weekend planned, starting with checking out the Milton High School boys basketball playoff game. Why? Maybe because Milton is the #3 high school basketball team in the country, and they have 6 Division 1A players on their roster. Saturday is another event filled day, as I plan to cram as much college basketball into my day as possible. And then there is Sunday, where the Green flag will drop on 25 or so drivers looking to cock-block the Jimmy Johnson from a 6-pete. Yea I realize there will be more than 25 drivers racing this season, but let’s be honest; there is 25 at most who have an opportunity to bring home a NASCAR ‘Ship.

So here it is the “spring is just around the corner, can you taste it” edition of the Friday Morning Free for All……

--The “I THINK YOU SHOULD KNOW” Story from this Week:

1. High School Iowa Wrestler gives up State Title, refuses to wrestle girl….

I am not sexist by any means. I think that girls should have equal opportunities to everything that men do, including high school athletics. But is it right that a high school wrestler in Iowa defaulted rather than wrestle a girl? The wrestler, Joel Northrup, made a brief statement:

                “As a matter of conscience and my faith I do not believe that it is appropriate for a boy to            engage a girl in this manner. It is unfortunate that I have been placed in a situation not seen in          most other high school sports in Iowa."

Now is it my place to say that the kid should have wrestled the girl? No, but I do think that if girls want to wrestle in the state of Iowa or anywhere else in the country, it is their right. However, I think there should be a girls division or league separate from guys. What would have happened if this kid would have grabbed the female wrestler around the waste and dropped her on the head? Some people would have been upset. Well, that is the nature of sports, and more specifically boys wrestling. I respect the decision Joel Northrup made, but quite frankly, I don’t think the kid should have ever been put in the situation to make the decision….

2. 10 Years since we lost the Man in Black

I think it has to be said that it has been 10 years since we lost Dale Earnhardt. Not only was it a sad loss for NASCAR, but it was a sad loss for sports fans and society for that matter. This week, a moment of silence will be held during the third lap of the race, in honor of the late great NASCAR Legend. I will go on record and hand will be raised high in the air with three fingers up in his honor during that lap…..

--Things that Have Pissed Me off This Week:

Keeping it Classy Alabama Fans…..

Oh Alabama, your classiness has reached an all time high. Now I will be the first to admit that I have written some bad things about Auburn. I don’t like Gene Chizik, and I still believe that they bought a championship this year. But purposely poisoning the Oak trees at Auburn’s sacred Toomer’s Corner is terrible and downright bush league. So you’re bitter that your rival Auburn won the National Title? Tough Shit, you had your chance to do something about it, and the Tide choked. So I’m personally calling you out, Harvey Almorn Updyke, the 62 year old D-Bag who was responsible for the incident. At 62, shouldn’t you be doing other things a little more responsible than poisoning trees on a college campus? By the way, naming your children “Bear” and “Crimson” (true story by the way) is almost as pathetic as your attempt to quiet the celebration of Auburn’s National Championship.  Harvey, you are about as cool as AIDS in my eyes. I hope the judge decides that the best way to have you pay your debt to society is to have you dropped in the center of Auburn University, Where the student body can tar, feather, and beat you down exactly how Auburn beat down Alabama in the second of this year’s game…..

--Youtube Clip of the Week:

1. The guy wasn’t good enough to start for UCONN this season, but apparently all that time he spent screwing around on the practice field paid off……

2. In honor of the NASCAR season kicking off, here is the movie trailer to one of the best sports movies of all time, Enjoy…..

--The “LIVIN’ THE DREAM” Legend of the Week:

I know I have mentioned this before, but if you’re Andy Roddick, it’s quite obvious you are a “livin’ the dream” legend. First off, you have roughly 20 million stacks of Paper sitting in your bank account. You’re the best American tennis player around these days, and you travel the world on a regular basis to play the sport you love for money.

But the best part of Andy Roddick’s life, is the fact that when his match is over, he gets to go home and get a rub down from wifey Brooklyn Decker. Who is Brooklyn Decker? Unless you have been living with your head up your ass for the past year, she is the hottest swimsuit model in the land.

Andy Roddick, congrats my man, you are living the dream…. And are an inspiration for all of us at Bro Nameth….

--Real Men of Genius Bro of the Week:

In honor of the kickoff of the 2011 NASCAR season, I felt it was only right to dedicate a portion of my Friday Free for All for the next few weeks to the “Real Men of Genius,” presented by ice cold ‘Merican Bud Light. This week, Bro Nameth Salutes you…….

Mr. Silent Killer Gas Passer

 

--Shout-Outs for the Week:

- Uncle Clark and Corey Rose: Thanks to your superb contributions to Bro Nameth, you have me completely interested in NASCAR again, and I’m looking forward to the start of the season Sunday…..

- Brooklyn Decker- The 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition is in stores and all I got to say is Andy Roddick is a lucky man….

-Miguel Cabrera- What a way to kick off MLB training camp, the guy was popped for DUI yesterday. What’s worse? He apparently had to be asked by the office to stop taking swigs of scotch while he was pulled over.

- Ronaldo- Congrats on a great career, and enjoy some retirement bro…..

-Cavs- I give you a lot of shit, but you actually managed to beat the Lakers last night. You deserve a shout out…..

-CC Sabathia- The man showed up to training camp 20 pounds lighter this week. What did he do different this offseason? He said the cut out the box of Cap’n Crunch he ate every morning for breakfast. Yea you read that right, an entire box.

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.

He cheated but DAMN that was fun to watch..Rivalry Saturday and this guys vote counts the same as yours

Hell yeah I took the money....prove it

Anyone who has followed the blog for the last few weeks knows how I feel about the whole Cam Newton situation. The guy cheated and its going to come out 3-4 years down the road and all the accolades of this season will be stripped. With that being said the comeback he lead today against a VERY good Alabama team is only going to strengthen the legend of Cam Newton

The game yesterday between Alabama and Auburn was epic. It was one of the best football games I have seen in a while and to be honest I called it "over" when Alabama made the game 24-0. I have watched a lot of football in my life and here is something you can bet on. Anytime a team is building a lead and they leave points on the field multiple times you can almost bet its going to come back and bite them. Mark Ingram is running in for a score essentially and the ball is popped out and fumbled through the end zone. Trent Richardson has a sure TD that falls just off his fingertips resulting in a FG instead of a touchdown. Thats a 10 point swing right there that ultimately looses them the game.

How about the testicular fortitude of Auburn and Cam Newton. Staring 24-0 in the face he leads an Auburn scoring drive just before half to cut the lead to 24-7. Alabama held Newton to -10 yards rushing on 9 attempts in the 1st half. NEGATIVE 10 yards!! That is almost borderline impossible. The guy should be able to fall forward for a yard every time. For Auburn and Newton to come out in the second half and DOMINATE Alabama on both sides of the ball was very impressive. Newton finished the game with 2 TD's throwing and 1 TD rushing strengthening his Heisman resume. At this point for Newton to NOT win the Heisman would be a tragedy. The only other player that has accomplished close to what he has on the field was the almighty Tim Tebow the year he won the Heisman. Barring 2 terrible games Newton will rush for 20 TD's and throw for close to 25 TD's.

RIVALRY SATURDAY

Some Predictions for my Bro Nameth Broheims:

• South Carolina allows Clemson to hang around but pulls out a TD win 31-24
• At least 2 Alabama fans hung themselves last night
• Georgia lays a beatdown on GT...that pains me to say that but no way Al Groh's defense stops UGA
• OK beats OK STATE because OK STATE doesn't play any defense. OK has the 13th ranked pass defense in the country
• Arkansas beats LSU and Les Miles makes at least 2 dumb decisions.
• Lou Holtz picks both S.Carolina and ND to win tonight....Shocker i know

His vote counts the same as yours

Friday Free For All

Friday Free For All…..

It’s Friday morning; you should all know what that means. It means you are sitting at your desk starring at the clock in the bottom right of the computer, acting like you are doing something important, waiting for the right moment for you to sneak out that extra 10 minutes early, so you can try and beat the traffic home. Or, you may be sitting in a classroom, listening to a professor talk about all kinds of sh*t that you could care less about, because you are too busy trying to figure out what happened last night, where your debit card is, and who that person is that you woke up next to this morning.

But the best thing about Friday, the absolute best thing, is that it’s time for the first of many weekend outlooks from yours truly…. Enjoy….

Top 3Things I’m looking forward to this weekend:

1. Auburn vs. LSU- The opportunity to see Cam Newton lay the smack down on LSU. I don’t like LSU, and I can’t stand Les Miles. If I was half as lucky as Les Miles, right now I would be writing this in a hot tub at The Palms in Vegas with three strippers named Candy, Destiny, and Sunshine.

2. Lesnar vs. Velasquez- Yea I’m down with the UFC, I love any opportunity to drink beer and watch two guys beat the hell out of each other. I’m taking Lesnar in this fight, because he is a badass, he’s definitely jacked up on something, and his wife is smoking hot.

3. Eason-Welch- The most underrated music group in Nashville. If you have not heard of them, you need to check them out on Facebook. Give them a shout; let them know you heard about them from Bro Nameth Sports.

Top 3 things that have pissed me off this week:

1. Bret Favre and his package- Look Brett, I’ve put up with retirement, no retirement, retirement, no retirement over the last 3 years. But the last mental picture I wanted in my head watching Sportscenter every morning is text message photos of your package. And I hate to tell you Grandpa, but that chick from the Jets was a Dime Piece, you didn’t have a chance unless you threw her some of that green you got.

2. James Harrison- Retirement? Really? You are going to retire over a $75,000 fine for a dangerous hit? You’re scheduled to make 20 Million dollars over the next three years. There wasn’t a chance on this planet you were going to retire.

3. Stephen Garcia QB, South Carolina- I know I’m beating a dead horse here, but lobbing the ball for anyone to grab on the last play of the game? Thinking about it pisses me off.

Best Stat I’ve heard over the last week:

· The SEC West has 5 out of 6 teams ranked in the AP top 25. That is more teams than the entire Big East, and More teams then both conferences in the ACC combined. BOOOOOMMM

Youtube Clips of the week:

You need a good laugh, just watch this moron on QVC. I could watch it over and over honestly.


And Finally- Big Game Predictions for the Weekend, if you don’t agree, tell me….

Auburn over LSU
Cocks over Commies
Nebraska over Oklahoma State
Alabama over Tennessee
Missouri upsets Oklahoma
Kentucky over Georgia
Dirty Birds over TO-CHO
Giants over Cowgirls

As always, it’s been a pleasure. Leave a comment if you disagree with anything I got to say, and I’ll prove to you why you are wrong….. Check in again Monday Suckazzzzz.
