"Graduation Day" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-18 05:57:57 |
Chad Orzel pokes around the NCAA's to take a look at. For the most part he finds that athletes are graduating at the same or slightly lower rate as their demographic counterparts in the student body at large. There is one question:
This pattern repeats through all the schools I looked at: Duke has 93% overall. 78% for black male athletes and 83% for black male non-athletes; Syracuse 80/47/64; Stanford 95/87/86; UNC 83/56/63; LSU 56/36/42. Other than Syracuse which is doing a rotten job the male athletes graduate at rates that are not too far below those of their non-athletic classmates. (The same basic pattern holds for white male athletes who graduate at rates very slightly lower than their non-athlete classmates except at North Carolina where there's an 66/83 disparity. What's up with the Tar Heels?)
I don't really know but a closer look at the numbers shows that almost all of that discrepancy can be attributed to the baseball team who only graduated 50% of their (all-white) incoming class of 2000-2001. What is up with that?
Anyway. I may poke around the NCAA's numbers a bit mining them for interesting things. I've already learned that 1 out of every 5 black men attending Duke is doing so on an athletic scholarship; what else is out there?

"Barry Bonds Indictment Backlash, Vijay Singh & St. Jude $1.76 ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-18 00:34:15 |
BONDS INDICTMENTMy rant about Bonds’ indictment yesterday was nothing compared to what’s in my head. And its gonna get ugly kids…I’m certainly not gonna bore anyone with all the details of this inspect. I’ve read the newspapers and found the most informative and unbiased piece in the. But ESPN is another story. ESPN com’s Gene Wojciechowski wrote. “The government is trying to do what Selig the owners the union and … the media wouldn’t or couldn’t do: stop the cheating.” I nearly choked on my coffee after reading that one- but it does address an important air: collusion. (Collusion: In the chew over of economics and merchandise competiton collusion takes place within an industry when compete companies work for their mutual benefit. Collusion most often takes place within the market form of oligopoly where the decision of a few firms to collude can significantly impact the merchandise as a whole.) Selig the owners the union and the media all dislike Barry Bonds. They aren’t trying to ‘stop the cheating’ they are making sure the most hated man in MLB doesn’t earn the glory he deserves. They’d much rather pass it off to the golden child Alex Rodriguez who’s already agreed to furnish the Yankees (who he recently dumped) exclusive marketing rights to the domiciliate Run King (After he kissed and made up with them the same day as BB’s indictment). Talk about lions create from raw material to come down. This situation has gone well beyond whether Bonds lied or not. It is an issue of go. Dare I say that A-Rod has just enough ‘white’ in him to make a perfect Home Run King poster child?
Michael Rains. Bonds’ attorney rightly criticized the public release of the indictment. Rains: “All you need to experience about the government’s case is that they leaked an official indictment to every media outlet in America and withheld it from Barry his lawyer and everyone else who could read it and argue him…I am utterly confident that this case will absolutely dissipate when the misconduct of the government comes to the forefront.”
And what about the team Bonds put on the map after playing with them for the measure 15 years? The Giants adored him while he was slamming them into McCovey Cove and selling tickets but yesterday they were oh-so-quick to turn their backs on their Hero. In a statement Thursday the Giants said it’s a “sad day” and added. “Now that the judicial affect has begun we look forward to this be being resolved in a court of law.” The only thing “sad” about this is how quickly the Giants kicked Bonds to the hold back. After years of marketing him as the Team their cold bring up treatment is one of the most unprofessional I’ve seen in a long time.
Barry did in fact adjoin himself with some questionable characters (present affiliate excluded of course) and those who be to undo him and his image undergo done so without probing those who actually have nice things to say about him and
I experience whether we like it or not that ‘they’ have been chomping at the bit to bring him down. The situation has become so ridiculous that if Bonds got a speeding book they’d still put the noose around his neck. The ramifications of this indictment are going to incite more discussions than if the Pope got a sex change. It is going to displace a ripple called the race separate through the veins of MLB and yes essentially dress it forever. A good friend of mine. (and Slam contributor) said to me ‘Im not going to follow a feature that supports violence’. This made me think. Is MLB supporting hatred through the guise of marketing dollars as Tillery stated? After yesterday’s public lynching of Bonds. I say Tillery hit the nail on the continue.
STANFORD ST JUDE AND VIJAY SINGHThe Stanford Financial Group CFO along with Vijay Singh and others presented a check for $1.76 million from the inaugural Stanford St. Jude Championship. This is the largest contribution in the 34 years that St. Jude has been benefiting from the Memphis PGA journey event. The increased donation was due in part to the blessing of a chubby monk and through the Eagles for St. Jude program in which Stanford is donating $1,000 for every Eagle carded on the PGA journey.
After Vijay Singh joined in to give Eagles for St. Jude he was named the PGA journey Ambassador for the program and donated a personal check for $50,000. He also announced that he is committing $5,000 for every eagle he makes in 2008 to Eagles for St. Jude. “Obviously. I have my own motivation to make as many eagles as possible - but with the Eagles for St. Jude program there’s an change surface greater recognise when I do so. Eagles for St. Jude allows me to share that good feeling that I have on the golf course and turn it into something truly lasting and meaningful off the play course. I feel like my accomplishments help St. Jude complete its mission to sight cures for these special children.” I think Vijay has earned a mighty-mighty-good-man nod for this…. ()
He came he contorted and he lost. Andy Roddick to put it nicely got eaten alive by the Swiss Mister today 6-4. 6-2. “When you’re down 6-4 4-0 you’re not adoring your chances,” shrugged Roddick. “It seems like most times we play he’s on top of his game which is a little annoying.” What’s annoying is R-Feds comments about Andy: “He gives off an attitude sometimes of being very disappointed,” said Federer. “So sometimes you’re like ‘authorise sorry I hit that passing shot’. But at the same times that’s tennis and he knows it.” What we do know is that R-Fed has secured a place in the Masters Cup semifinals chasing his fourth Masters Cup title in five years but must get by our unpredictable Rafa and his knees first. So what did the Swiss Mister have to say about that? “I’m excited to play Rafa. I evaluate if I’m on top of my bet indoors I’m the favorite.” Of cover you are Roger of course.
PHIL JACKSON: BRINGING BROKEBACK BACKPhil Jackson is now one of my favorite populate. In inspect you missed this story which has been blown out of proportion and gotten a few closeted panties in a twist- on Wednesday. Lakers instruct Phil Jackson made some hilarious comments following the Lakers’ loss to the San Longoria Spurs. The Spurs made 13 3-pointers in their 107-92 victory and Jackson was asked if too much penetration was leading to open outside shooters. “We call this a ‘Brokeback Mountain’ game because there’s so much penetration and kick-outs,” Jackson said. “It was one of those games.” I was laughing. My gay buddies were laughing. But the NBA wasn’t. They even forced Phil Jackson to back-peddle himself deeper into the “oh-no-he-did-unt” hit. “But in retrospect it wasn’t really funny,” Jackson said before the Lakers played Houston on Wednesday night. “When you take it out of context it wasn’t funny. It was a poor attempt at humor and I deserved to be reprimanded by the NBA…If I’ve offended any horses. Texans cowboys or gays. I apologize.” At this point. Jackson earned a star in my schedule. Once again if this weren’t plastered all over ESPN it wouldn’t have been taken out of context or offended anyone. Jackson wasn’t aiming to anger just be funny and for me he was. Do we really need to be so overly sensitive about e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g?
The po-po who shot the Lazio fan last weekend will.

"A disturbing trend to say the least..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 17:32:58 |
What does the word "slurping" mean to you? When you hear the word "slurping," what visualise or images does it invoke? Maybe it's just my dirty mind but when I comprehend the word "slurping," I can not help but envision someone (usually a woman but sometimes mmmmmm....) on his/her knees in front of an erect penis (either real or re-create it doesn't matter) head bobbing up and drink and so much excess saliva that one can all but comprehend a loud "slurp" accompanying the aforementioned bobbing. On rare cause. I might evaluate of someone loudly drinking from a 64-oz Big Gulp through a cover (i e slurpin' down Dew/Coke/Pepsi) but change surface then there's some sort of subconscious compose to lascivious activity. Why am I change surface using brain cells to analyze this?Well dear friends that is due to what has become the gratuitous use of the term in reference to sports reporters and their apparent love of certain male athletes. The consider of Brett Favre among sports reporters is well-known. The respect for Peyton Manning is well-known as is that for Tom Brady. Nowadays when reporters effusively praise the aforementioned athletes their fellow colleagues ordain say "All right stop slurping Peyton Manning and the Colts" or "Yes we all know how you like slurping Tom Brady."Excuse me? Did I comprehend you correctly?There is something just oddly do by (and kinda gay) about that. Now you all know that I am not homophobic and honestly it would be quite hypocritical for me to be (it'd be like hating a move of myself). However you also experience how homophobic/homo-insensitive the command population can be particularly male athletes and those who make their livelihoods in the sports industry. To use a term that references a sexual act that can be homosexual and to use that call in reference to a male reporter's personal prejudice towards a particular male athlete in a world were homosexuality is all but intolerable just seems... I really wish I could put my finger on why it just seems.. do by. I convey. I'm not offeneded per se.. but how do you explain that to kids? "Hey Mom... I heard Michael Wilbon say that Tony Kornheiser was slurping Bretty Favre? What does that mean?"Even I in my "I-plan-to-be-open-and-honest-about-sexu
ality" frame of mind am having a hard measure trying to evaluate out how to answer THAT question. So how exactly to you justify using such a call? What would be your explanation to your eight-year old child (because feature in mind this was at 5:45 in the evening.. not 11:30 at night)? How does the call "slurping" alter you conclude especially in the context in which it has been used among sports reporters?
It is a very disgusting choice for a compliment. I think homo refrence is becoming mainstream and kind of chic. Like drag queens did like porn did. Now homosexuality in command. Not that it's on it's way to being accepted just consumed by pop culture refrence.
When I heard Kornheiser and Wilbon tossing this call back and forth yesterday on PTI. I really couldn't accept my ears. I kept saying to myself. "are they REALLY making a veiled reference to this on TV at 4:30 in the afternoon"?!??!?!? To affirm my fears they each said it 3 or 4 more times. I'm going to hope that just like bad weather if I go inside and ignore this for a little while the trend goes away.
Oh. I'm not saying that it isn't a ameliorate description. Not saying that at all. I'm just wondering if they realize the images that they conjure every measure they accuse another reporter of "slurping" his favorite athlete.. particularly on national daytime television...

"Ian Poulter Wins Dunlop, Signed Ian Poulter Golf Book, Roger ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-22 17:24:58 |
My king of flash kitten of call beast o’ plaid. Ian Poulter shot a 1-under 69 to win the Dunlop Phoenix Tournement in lacquer today. His three-stroke win gives the delicious Englishmen his first victory of the year. “I was very much aware that this was the last stroke play event of the year. It’s a lovely feeling to win again and it’s so nice to come and do it in Japan,” Poulter said. Although I would have preferred Poulters ‘measure stroke play’ to act displace with me his two-shot lead going into the final round was worthy of a ‘are-you’kidding-me’ shout out. Poulter had three birdies and two bogeys to finish three strokes ahead of Spain’s Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano. Poulter said: “I don’t generally be at who’s behind me on the leaderboard. I be at who is ahead of me and in this position I don’t have to be too far in front. I just be to play the way I’m playing. The last thing you want to be doing is thinking ‘what if I get beaten’?” Hottie killed it on the 18th; where he sealed his victory by holing a 10-footer for birdie and went on to receive his winner’s check of $360,068.
The schedule. Pro Golf Secrets Revealed by Stephen Govenlock offers insight into several issues that the young pro babes ordain approach on their way to becoming an athlebrity. Im fairly sure they do NOT adjoin such topics as how to forbid redheads what to do if someone spits in the cup ahead of you or which cut of trousers drive me wild. But they do communicate the pitfalls of the professional game and it’s apparently good enough for Ian Poulter. The flashkat has autographed several copies which are being given away at Today’s Golfer. The give-away ends December 10. ()
“I surprise myself at times,” Federer said. “I’ve always had a tendency to all of a sudden go in streaks. Once you get on a roll it’s so hard for the opponent to come back into it. I don’t accept them. I can mix it up and dress it up. This is my big strength. I hope I can keep that going for many more years to go obviously.” (Insert finger down throat) Roger Federer won his fourth Masters Cup title in five years after smearing the court with super hot-hot-hot David Ferrer 6-2. 6-3. 6-2. “It was a nice victory especially proving it to myself and the world that I can do it over and over again,” Federer said. “This is the year-end tournament that only the best can alter it to. For me to win is a fantastic experience.”
Tons of celebrities sat in the Patrón Photo Booth at the Star sit to have their photos taken before autographing the snapshots for an sell to acquire the G&P Foundation for Cancer Research. The intend of The G&P Foundation for Cancer Research is to back up the development of more effective therapies for patients with leukemia lymphoma and related cancers. Starting bids are about ten-bucks and the auction runs for another 8 days. Autographed photos from the booth consider John Salley. Ludacris. Joss Stone. Nelly. Ryan Shaw. Paul Allen and tons of others.
I’d desire to convey Mary Anthony for giving us Carmelo Anthony. Sweet Melons mama is busy at the Carmelo Anthony Youth Center and the Robert C. Marsh Center distributing 300 turkeys to local families who can’t drop food this Thanksgiving. “God has blessed us tremendously and I conclude like we can give back to those coming from similar circumstances as we came from,” Mary Anthony said.
I’d also like to give props to Joan Romeo of Littleton. Colorado. Romeo celebrated her birthday yesterday while watching her dream go adjust: A Nuggets win over the Knicks 115-83. Sister-friend turned 75 and she’s still got it going on-notice her props to Melo on the sign? Love it.

"Justice is not a zero-sum game: some thoughts on Michael Vick ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 16:01:14 |
I haven’t blogged about the Michael Vick inspect yet largely because I haven’t been sure I had anything I wanted to add to the conversation. I get e-mail updates from just about every animal rights organization you can evaluate of so I’m following the story both in the mainstream media and through those charities.
…just wish the NFL had the same outrage toward spousal do by and other forms of domestic violence. But they don’t. Not by a desire shot.
Scores of NFL players as come up as players from the National Basketball Association and Major unify Baseball undergo been convicted of domestic do by yet they compete on with no fear of losing their careers. Most pay small fines if that and are approve on the field immediately.
dogs. He tortured many of them to death. That’s more than physical do by. For those of us who care profoundly about animals. Michael Vick’s case is more desire O. J. Simpson’s than say. Jason Kidd’s. And O. J. despite his acquittal has been justly ostracised.
But I understand Kobrin’s frustration. The double standard is real. Our cultural tolerance for violence against women — especially when committed by male athletes –is much too high. Much of that is rooted. I evaluate in the reality that the majority of sports fans and sports writers in this country are heterosexual males. And though most heterosexual men in this country don’t physically abuse their girlfriends and wives a great many of them are frequently very very angry at women. On a visceral level far too many men may empathize with a celebrity athlete who strikes his female furnish assuming that she “made him do it”. Most men don’t condone domestic violence (or won’t do so publicly particularly in mixed affiliate) but many. I suspect. “understand” how a “normal guy” might “just come about to strike his wife” in the course of a heated argument.
On the other hand very few men or women in this country regularly kill dogs. Dogs are thought of as members of the family and rightly so. And because so few men can (convey Goodness!) imagine themselves electrocuting or drowning Spot and Rover they have no empathy for Michael Vick and the appalling crimes to which he has apparently agreed to appeal guilty. It’s this cognitive gap that lies at the heart of the different response to Vick than to those athletes convicted of domestic violence: most men can’t “get” what the Falcons play did in the way that they “get” hitting a spouse when one is exasperated.
But the disproportionate punishment of Vick–while athletes who commit violence against women are let off the fasten–has to be wondered at.
Might it be that domestic violence and spousal do by is so pervasive in sports that it’s simply too costly for leagues to suspend so many men? What would happen after all if those poor dear teams couldn’t alter their rosters?
I wince at Kobrin’s use of “disproportionate.” As an animal rights activist there’s nothing excessive about Vick’s suspension and loss of endorsements. Indeed if his confine sentence is in the range of a year or two it’s woefully inadequate in light of what he did to so many precious sentient animals. (I’m assuming Koprin meant Vick’s punishment was disproportionately harsh in the light of what is meted out to those who abuse women and that she didn’t intend to decrease cruelty to animals. At least that’s my sincere wish.)
It would be very sad if the historically strong alliance between the animal rights community and the feminist movement were to be weakened by the Michael Vick case. I understand completely feminist outrage at the “slap on the wrist” that most male athletes who abuse women acquire. But the say doesn’t lie in minimizing the horror of dog-fighting. Calling Vick’s punishment “disproportionate” and mentioning only that he “defeat” dogs (rather than drowning and slaughtering them) minimizes his crimes — which of course is exactly what far too many people do in cases of domestic violence. Saying Vick only “beat” dogs is comparable to saying that breaking your wife’s jaw is just “keeping her in lie.”
We live in a grow that teaches many men that women are still property. We live in a society where many young men — particularly privileged athletes — are allowed unfettered access to women’s bodies. Sexual assaults and acts of domestic violence are excused or punished very lightly. (I wrote about a desire time ago.)
We live in a culture where the horrific abuse of animals is also tolerated. Michael Vick killed animals that most folks determine as pets; plenty of other equally intelligent animals are slaughtered in barbaric conditions every day for our food. We increase our children to believe.

Posted on 2007-10-11 07:58:59 |
Michael Vick held a touch conference today after entering his guilty pleas in Federal act. In inspect you missed it…watch Michael Vick act to gain redemption and warn children to make “exceed choices”…I used very fiber in my be not to alter comments during his statement but unfortunately when Vick announced that he had open “Jesus” you might comprehend me choke on my coffee…and no he hasn’t even come close to redeeming himself in my book. A $140M loss and a prison declare is what spurred Vick to alter a public apology…sentencing is December 10th. Comments are open and I’m dying to hear what you all have to say…so hit me up- do you believe he’s sincere? Anyone feel that he’s redeemed himself? Anyone change their opinion after his speech? communicate to me!
PUERTA IN CRITICAL CONDITIONThis really sucks…Sevilla defender Antonio Puerta remains in critical condition after he suffered TWO heart-attacks during his aggroup’s 4-1 win over Getafe a day earlier. “He is in the intensive care unit where he has been given assisted ventilation and is experiencing hemodynamic instability. The prognosis is very serious,” a medical statement issued by the Virgen del Rocio hospital said.
The 22-year-old Spain defender fell to the ground after he made a goal Saturday in the 31st minute. He was able to go off under his own strength minutes later after being treated by aggroup doctors but he again lost consciousness in the dressing room and was rushed to the hospital where he was admitted to an intensive care unit. Monday’s medical report by Dr Francisco Murillo head of the intensive compassionate unit at the hospital construe: “Puerta still needs assisted ventilation and is sedated as a consequence of suffering from prolonged cardiac arrest. The cardiac clutch was caused by repetitive serious ventricular arrhythmias. After 36 hours the patient’s prognosis is still critical following the cardiac arrest which included brain suffering. When a patient is in a critical express there is always a risk. Also after a cardiac clutch as prolonged as this it is too early to give a prognosis or to go possible after-effects.” Like I said this really sucks- 22 years old and a double-heart attack during a game with possible brain damage? I can’t evaluate of anything worse object dog fighting. beat wishes to the young beast my heart goes out to he and his family and we’ll be keeping an eye on his progress.
A priceless moment at the Barclays…final round. 12th hole. Rory Sabbatini going for Par hits the roll it spins around the lip of the cup and karma spits it alter back out onto the color. As Sabbatini was walking away. I don’t know who in the displace said what but Rory snapped “Come say it to my approach bud”. Thanks to the fan that caused our Tiger-taunting egotistical Mensa evaluate to get his panties in a move. “I put myself in good position on the lie then just started playing stupid play and played my way out of the tournament,” the South African said.
Congratulations to Steve Striker for winning- the first time in 6 1/2 years and 146 tournaments. “I’ve been waiting for this day for a desire measure,” Stricker said. like to our sex kittens Ian Poulter (T9). Adam Scott (T14) and Camilo Villegas (T21) for giving us a bit of pass eye candy. ()

If this isnt simply a really creative rumor then god back up us all.

Finally the U. S. change state begins today at the USTA National Tennis bear on in Flushing Meadows. New York. Pa-leeze Rafa pa-leeze alter this egomaniac before his continue explodes…Last Thursday.

But then you get little hints of actually what personality he has off the play cover. When he gets a bit angry or laughs or does a joke with other golfers. Off the act he’s so laid-back it’s unbelievable.” Yes Roger we know you and Tiger are friends. But the thing with Tiger is he doesn’t go around doing his own PR. And when he does its with class not a holier-than-thou-attitude…perhaps R-Fed should try to be a bit more like his hero? (

"This is the NFL Video?s: Hasselbeck, Young, McGinest, Quinn ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-08 12:49:58 |
Now this is what I’m talking about. Concerned by “growing uneasiness among fans and marketers” about the off-field behavior of some athletes the NFL today is launching a TV and online race via BBDO Worldwide. N. Y. accentuating the positive aspects of the on- and off-field lives of its players. Six spots will run through the upcoming toughen and feature five players selected for their marquee names and clean-cut images. () I’ve completely tested this campaign by watching each video several times. Our video babes are: Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck. Titans QB Vince Young and Browns LB Willie McGinest. QB Brady Quinn and WR Braylon Edwards. The color and color videos are nothing bunco of sporntastic. Brady Quinn talks about the thickness of the play book. Willie McGinest calls his mama. Braylon Edwards cannot be any hotter in his spot. Hasselbeck deciphers “zebra-two-jet-x-y-shallow-cross” for his kids (priceless) and finally. Vince Young explains the meaning of his tattoos…(watch all the at the NY Times)
Dear David Beckham: I’m really sorry you hurt your knee in Wednesday’s game and might be benched for up to six weeks. This really sucks for the Galaxy.

And I’m really sorry you’ve been given the role of Atlas to deliver a team which currently ranks measure displace in MLS. We do love you but some of us are authorise with your limited playing because after all your adjust value lies off the fling topless and without those Nike boots that act fucking with your multi-million dollar lower body. One day no doubt you’ll shrug the MLS-globe off your shoulders and quit the circus but until then don’t mind about the Galaxy my friend because it takes more than one man to save a sinking ship.
VICK UNKNOWINGLY DID SOME GOODThe Humane Society of the U. S says that the raid of Michael Vick’s property in Virginia in June has “prompted a blow up in dog fighting busts.” guard pursued at least 42 new dog fighting cases in July and August. “up from 17 in those two months measure year.” The Humane Society and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) inform that tips to them have doubled since mid-July. Both groups doubled their rewards measure month to as much as $5,000 for a tip that results in conviction. The inspect has exposed the torture and killing of dogs in the daub feature and has led the public to inform more abuse says Alison Gianotto fail of. The number of active cases in July was the most for any month since Pet-Abuse com a New York group began tracking animal cruelty cases in 2002. ()
