Those damn tsunami-causing Asians

admin — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 23:35:24 +0000

OK, I’m sure you’ve all seen the original vlog post by the intellectually challenged Alexandra Wallace by now, ranting about Asians at UCLA and how they are ruining her life with their non-American ways. This b is so stupid that part of me (most of me) is positive that this is some sort of publicity stunt for her to pitch her new reality show. Whether or not it’s for real, the only way to rebut something as idiotic and ignorant as this vlog post (besides burning shit down) is to write a song. You go, boy. Props to RHK for sending me this in the first place. Watch/listen to it here.

Webber needs to stay off of his bicycle. Just sayin’.

The 2010 F1 season was awesome. The best part of it for me was seeing Mark Webber leading the Drivers’ Standings and looking like a shoe-in to become Red Bull Racing’s first World Drivers’ Champion. Well, after the Asian rounds started, good old Webber started to slump, his worst moments being crashing in Korea and getting his ass handed to him in Abu Dhabi. Turns out he had a shoulder injury right around that time from yet another bicycle crash. A man’s gotta have various interests, but come on now! Our friends at ITV have the full(er) story here.

Announcing the worst-kept secret in F1: US F1 is Audi 5

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 05:42:31 +0000

Well, despite constant denials, US F1 announced today that it was calling it quits to their 2010 bid to compete in the FIA Formula One World Championship. Sad to see this happening, but one upside is that good old Jacques Villeneuve may be making a comeback with Stefan GP if the FIA grants them the now-vacant grid slot. Full article here.

4 words … what up with that?

This is one of my favorite skits on the current SNL … Kenan Thompson’s “What Up With That?” Sit back and enjoy.

2010, we’ve been expecting you.

Happy New Year from “the BLOG”.

Reunited, and it feels so good …

Michael Schumacher has signed a one-year deal to return to Formula One competition in 2010 with the new Mercedes GP squad, formerly known as Brawn GP. This means that Schumacher will be reunited with Ross Brawn, the man who is largely responsible for all seven of his F1 titles. And did I mention that Brawn GP won the F1 Drivers’ and Constructor’s World Championship this past season? Oh yes, this is going to be good. Full story.

Re: Tiger–it takes two to tango, doesn’t it?

admin — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 03:11:30 +0000

The great Tiger Woods has now finally admitted to having extramarital affairs, and will take an indefinite leave from playing golf to repair damage to his family. Story Here. So yes, I’m sure he will continue to suffer fallout for his behavior, and will have to work hard at restoring the faith he lost from his family (and fans and sponsors). But what about all of those women who knowingly had repeated relations with a married man? Those fine ladies are guilty of anything from contributing to the infidelity of a married man (with kids) to attempted extortion. Sure, no one cares about some skanky whores vis-a-vis a megastar like Tiger Woods, but how about applying some heat across the board? Besides, Tiger didn’t fly solo. If he did, then millions of us would be guilty of the same offense.

Hello, Steelers? Anyone home?

admin — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 00:51:45 +0000

Can somebody tell me what the heck is happening to the Pittsburgh Steelers? I know they have their share of injuries, but come on. Losing game after game to teams that seemingly didn’t have the firepower to even share the same field has become the norm. The latest kick in the nads — losing pretty comprehensively to biannual whipping boys, the Cleveland Browns. I guess the Steelers are participating in some sort of charity by donating wins to these hapless teams. Read all about it here.

maybe we should elaborate on what we mean by "amazing".

Kimi is a WRC driver for 2010

admin — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 20:27:41 +0000

Well, the worst-kept secret in racing has come to light, and for me, it’s a real downer. The Kimster is taking a sabbatical from Formula One next season and will contest the 2010 WRC with Citroen Racing. And while he won’t be pounding the pavement in a single seater, his switch to the Red Bull-backed rally team will help fuel the rumor that he will return to F1 in 2011 with the Red Bull Racing F1 squad.
