TUF
Finalist Tommy Speer
|
We didn’t get to see much of Tommy’s personality featured during
the season. He’s a very solid interview.
I was blown away by the guy’s background and lack of experience.
He also disagreed with the rest of Team Hughes, who constantly
bashed Hughes in our interviews. Calling them two-faced.

Celeb Moms Getting Killed On The Internet
In a
world where females have to be perfect size zeros, apparently there’s no
room for motherhood.
First
it was Jennifer Love Hewitt and now it’s 41-year old Cindy Crawford.
Did Playboy Botch The 2008 Sexiest Sportscaster Of The Year?
There’s no doubt that Playboy knows women. But does it really know
sports? Who did the research in coming up with the 12 candidates for
2008 Sexiest SportsCaster of the Year?
Lisa
Salters? Jeanne Zelasko? Huh?
When Will Washington Post Apologize For Ridiculous
Sean Taylor Headline?
| |
|
|
The
media is under heavy criticism for the coverage of the Sean Taylor
tragedy in the days immediately following his death. Taylor’s friends
and family think it was unfair to trot out the 24-year old criminal
history the day he died.
 I
went into full Law & Order mode on the
Mr. Sunshine Show on Tuesday on FoxSportsRadio1460. Examining the
early evidence and stating it was possible that the shooting wasn’t
random. It could’ve been someone from his past exacting revenge. It
appears now the story was somewhere in the middle. The suspects did know
Taylor but weren’t in his house with the goal of murdering him. We
simply gave out the facts and made sure to mention on multiple
occasions…this was a tragedy and he absolutely did not deserve this
fate.
The
Washington Post and columnist Leonard Shapiro, well their approach was a
lot more extreme with this headline…
“Taylor’s Death Is Tragic but Not Surprising”
|
|
|
Excerpts
from Shapiro’s story: At
the moment, it is far too soon to draw any conclusions as to how or why
this tragedy occurred, why another young black man is now dead from a
gunshot wound in his own home, why another athlete, Michael Vick, Pacman
Jones, Tank Johnson, and now Sean Taylor becomes headline news for all
the wrong reasons.
Boy,
this looks like a slight rush to judgment. The circumstances of Taylor’s
death don’t resemble in anyway the filthy ways of Vick, Jones and
Johnson.
More
from Shapiro:
Still,
could anyone honestly say they never saw this coming? You’d have to be
blind not to consider Taylor’s checkered past.
Wow,
this looks awful now that more of
the facts are coming out. Taylor did nothing to court his murder.
I
just wonder what kind of s**tstorm the Washington Post would be dealing
with if they wrote the same sort of headline/story involving a Paris
Hilton or Kim Kardashian rape –
|
|
KARDASHIAN RAPE IS TRAGIC, BUT NOT SURPRISING.
| After
all, both “celebs” have made and profited from their own pornographic
DVD’s. Couldn’t we draw the conclusion that with their lack of moral
fiber they deserved to be raped? That
premise is ridiculous considering the Taylor scenario involved a black
athlete and the hypothetical Hilton/Kardashian story revolves around
white women.
