Magic Johnson - Sirens Forewarning
Sea man and this many women shouldn't mix. The Sirens, they say, had maidens' features; but from the thighs down they had the forms of Birds.
Homer wrote, "Once he hears to his heart's content, sails on, a wiser man.
We know all the pains that the Greeks and Trojans once endured
on the spreading plain of Troy when the gods willed it so—
all that comes to pass on the fertile earth, we know it all!"
Laker in sirens? Yep, Yep

Increased Childhood Obesity Could Lead to a US Sumo Resurgence
Childhood obesity has been a big topic recently with children as young as 3 showing signs of inflammation that could lead to increased stroke and heart disease as adults. Which leads some to ask, "At what age is it too young to start sumo training?" Let's Move. The time has never been better for a sumo resurgence in America.
"It's really important to be concerned about childhood obesity and to even be concerned when they are quite young," said Asheley Skinner, a professor of pediatrics at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. "We can't wait until they're adolescents or adults."
How dire is the situation? The American Sumo Association website has expired. Sumo wrestler Dan Kalbfeisch said, "As a child I never was exposed to sumo in America. The only thing I saw was the TV and films where they made fun of sumo as a joke — big fat guys slapping bellies."
If you have even a slightly overweight youngster you have to act fast. Contact USA SUMO immediately. America's sumo future is riding on it.

Golf Digest's Diaz Dupes ESPN on Obama / Tiger Woods Phone Call
Wrong Number. "Tiger Woods has received personal calls from President Barack Obama and Bill Clinton while in his personal exile, but he's also being supported by his family, Golf Digest reported Saturday." That is what ESPN and thousands of other sites reported after Jaime Diaz' article Eye of the Storm hit the net.
Only problem? It wasn't true and the article has been changed:
It was a recipe for entitlement. It's a condition the average person resents and rejects as an excuse for bad behavior. Many who live in the public eye have a more empathetic perspective and have been more willing to lend Woods support. "I'm a strong believer that anybody can look within themselves, find their flaws and fix them," President Obama said. Bill Clinton, whose experience might be particularly instructive, made a personal call to offer encouragement.US Magazine simply removed the article pictured above without further note.
At least ESPN credited 'News Services' instead of having poor Jason Sobel taking the credit...

ESPN's Mike & Mike Book Nothing to Envy: Amazon
Deadspin's Tommy Craggs pointed out that: Either someone at Amazon is having a bit of sport with Fat Man and Little Boy's forthcoming Rules for Sports and Life, or the pair has written the definitive treatise on life in North Korea.
What's happened? A portion of the Editorial Review for Mike and Mike's Rules for Sports and Life book has crisscrossed with...
Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea. Which gets it just about right.

Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea. Which gets it just about right.
Certainly 'nothing to envy' sums up Mike & Mike a helluva lot better than, "Every morning more than three million listeners tune in to Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN Radio—mostly to hear the Mikes’ (Golic and Greenberg) riotous back-and-forth on everything from why baseball managers should dress like real people to how to lose a fight with the wife with dignity."
Riotous? The only 'riotous' that could possibly be attached to Mike and Mike would be if stuttering Mike got caught in the ESPN women's bathroom installing a peephole for Tony Kornheiser. Riotous media descended upon Bristol today after Mike Golic was caught in the ladies room at the worldwide leader of sexual dysfuntion.

5,200 Come Together, Get Naked Down Under
Spencer Tunick (above with naked sushi girl) photographed 5,200 naked people today at Sydney's Opera House for a photo titled "Mardis Gras: The Base."
"It was difficult to get the straight participants to embrace the gay participants and vice versa," Tunick said. "So I was very happy that that last set up finally got done and everyone came together united, friendly kiss, a loving kiss in front of this great structure."
And by structure we think he's referring to the Opera House, not participant #3728.
We don't have the photos yet but AP does...if you like that kind of thing.

Baby, Please Don't Go - Wheelchair + AC/DC Mosh Pit
Let's Get It Up. A quadriplegic AC/DC fan in a wheelchair attending a concert in Australia fell over a ledge and into the mosh pit when his friend accidently hit the chair's joystick controller.
A metal stick that he uses to move items in his way embedded in his eye during the 4ft plunge.
No word on his condition at this time.

Here's a Contest Our Readers Could Win - A Cursing Contest
Every year Nepalese youth compete in a 10-day cursing festival. The kids curse at everyone and then laugh their fucking asses off.
"The best thing about this tradition is after the festival is over, everyone feels good about each other. There are no bad feelings," 78-year-old Ram Kumar Mishra.
"We don't get to curse at any other time. But during the festival we're allowed to - even in front of our parents and we all have a jolly good time," 16-year-old Raju Raut said after cursing his best school friend.
The Blitz was unable to determine what the goddamned prizes included.
