Chad Ochenta y Cinco

That's bizarre he changed his name but names aren't particularly meaningful anyway. What's important is that he possesses the catch radius of an elephant and the speed of a horse. He reacts to bad balls and sure can run and climb the tree. His fluid hips also work wonders for his kicking game because dude can kick. He may be a mudder but he's no mauler or road-grader. Watch (go to 1:13 on this) as he lunges at Ray Lewis but lacks the initial punch to drive block Ray who turns him to a rag doll. No matter what he can and can't do, Ochocinco knows how to celebrate.

Why all the vocab? Getting ready for the draft. My rival Mel Kiper came out with his big board. At S, I like Taylor Mays because he is a freak hitter and Eric Berry because he's a center fielder likened to Ed Reed.

Almost went shooting but my friend didn't have any skeet. Reminded me of these funny commercials. The Sproles one reminded me of this play. This dude actually runs on people.

I Hate Twitter.

2010 NFL Combine Update! Cal Bear's RB Jahvid Best will run the fastest 40 in the upcoming combine. He will break Tennessee RB Chris Johnson's 4.24 mark, the fastest time of the electronic timing era (since 1990). 140 Characters. How you like me now?

Apparently they have a combine on Madden. That would be fun to play.

Go Bears. My cousin just suffered a career-ending injury squatting an 800 lb couch off the stock room shelf. His knee cap dislodged and ended up in his sock, but fortunately, his company compensated him in excess of six figs. Spencer, this is for you and all the other tough guys out there injured on the job.


13. Inspirational recovery from a frequent incident off the pitch. Go to 2:14.

12. Fingers aren't meant to go that way! McNair had a few like this too.



11. Just saw Hangover. Not as bad as an uppercut.

Full version.

10. Kickboxing one and two. Gymnastics.

9. Patrick Edwards: Why is that cart there?

8. This image is often in the back of my mind when I go up for a dunk.

7. Not a hit but a drag and rollover.

6. The U. Or C. Ewww.

5. Malicious challenge or clumsy tackle? Good soundtrack.

On a lighter note.

4. Career-ending big hit from the greatest defensive player of all time. Similarly, Pete Rose delivered a career-ender to Ray Fosse, who, like Theisman, became an announcer. This collision occurred in an all-star game no less... before it counted.

3. Apparently this legend popped his dislocated hip back in himself, a nearly impossible feat. His place in the 2 HOFs is merely hypothetical thanks to this career-changing injury. Go to 2:10.

2. This block looks routine, a subtle injury. Spinal injuries are the most unfortunate.


1. A spinal injury from "the Assassin."

Al Davis nostaligically reached for Mike Mitchell, probably perceiving him as the 2nd Coming. Well, dude can hit.

Don't sweat the small stuff

During Sam Querrey's match against Tommy Haas at the LA Open, Pam Shriver reported that Sam Querrey left the United Airline tags from an Indianapolis flight on his "nice" tennis bag. Yeah he actually neglected or forgot to remove it. Whoa. Thanks for the insight, you're so observant and thorough. Sam Querry must be a lazy, oblivious, apathetic slob. I also saw him throw his racket in the air and drop it once.
