It may not seem like much now after seeing the likes of Jeff Hardy jumping off 20-foot high ladders, but when the Superfly Jimmy Snuka leapt off the cage at Madison Square Garden onto the Magnificent Muraco, wrestling had changed forever. There had never been a move like that performed before. In fact, a young man at the Garden that day by the name of Mick Foley was so inspired by Snuka that it motivated him to become a wrestler and eventually WWF Champion.

And Now Let’s Hand Things Over To Weather…
Posted: November 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in ridiculous, The Ukraine
Everyone loves jacking it at work. It’s a way to get back at The Man. I jack it like eight times a day writing these posts for you. I just jacked it right now. However, most of us aren’t required to do a live newscast as part of our work. This newscaster from the Ukraine found out the hard way that sometimes the producer throws it back to you a little early. I wonder if he was thinking about that stripper or if her American flag outfit got him excited about freedom. Make sure that hand is clean, buddy!
Spermbike Revolutionizing Transport of Semen
Posted: November 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in medicine, Seattle, traveling
If you want to want to help out those who need a little assistance having a baby, but are too lazy to go down to the fertility clinic, you’re in luck! The Seattle Sperm Bank has developed a bike that can hold 30 semen samples in a special vacuum container cooled by liquid nitrogen. Also, it looks like a sperm. Spokesman Gary Olsem claims it helps awareness for the need of sperm donations.
There’s already a Spermbike in Copenhagen but I’d like to see more because what we really need on the roads are more Spermbikes. When I asked our resident Seattle native DP Animal about it, he noted that he was happy that Shawn Kemp was keeping busy during retirement. Something has to pay for his donuts.
Izabel Goulart: Dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum
Posted: November 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum, Izabel Goulart
You could say all you want about Heidi Klum or Adriana Lima, but nobody killed it at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show the other night like Izabel Goulart did. The Brazilian stunner is almost too much for words. Look how sexy that rib cage is. All I know is her picture should be kept away from impressionable 14-year-old girls. Plus if you ever got caught in a rainstorm with Izabel, you know you’d never get wet. Who else could handle three umbrellas like that? Dayyyyyyyyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuum!
Tony Reali in…………Goodfellas II
Posted: November 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in Around the Horn, ESPN, Goodfellas, Tony Reali
This is incredible. As part of their ninth anniversary, the crew over at Around the Horn put together this little tour around the studio led by host Tony Reali as a homage to Martin Scorsese’s famous steady cam shot in Goodfellas. I don’t know how many takes it took but it’s spot-on. I’m just happy that Woody Paige wasn’t prominently involved.
Lenny Dykstra No Shows Boxing Match Against Jose Canseco, Surprises Nobody
Posted: November 11, 2011 by Keith Stone in boxing, Jose Canseco, Lenny Dykstra
Jose Canseco and Lenny Dykstra were scheduled to have a boxing match over the weekend. In a Battle of the Crazies, the pay-per-view bout was filled with bad blood. Dykstra hates Canseco for writing in his book that he did steroids. It’s no surprise then that Canseco’s opponent was switched from White House crasher Tareq Salahi.
In his last “fight,” Canseco actually switched places with his twin brother, Ozzie. It’s an ingenious move that I haven’t seen since Doink the Clown did it at Wrestlemania IX, but apparently Canseco and promoter Damon Feldman worked things out. Feldman gave Dykstra $5,000 in advance with the promise of $10,000 after the fight.
Too bad he didn’t know Dykstra’s current residence is a Los Angeles rehab facility. Don’t know how much training he was doing in there. Plus, who has time when you’re making hundreds of millions of dollars picking stocks? Sucks if you were one of the 12 people that paid to see the fight.
Islanders-Capitals Game Sets Record For Most Promotions
Posted: November 10, 2011 by Keith Stone in Fishsticks, hockey, NHL
The guy running the Mets’ marketing team must also work for the Islanders. At Saturday’s game against the Capitals, the Fishsticks did everything they could to get spectators in the door. To start the game, an Air National Guardsman repelled from the ceiling to drop the opening faceoff. That’s gimmicky enough, but wait, there’s more! During the second intermission, Bachelorette Season 7 winner and huge Islanders fan JP Rosenbaum took to the ice to show how to play the team’s Mohegan Sun Time To Shine game. Any ladies that were interested in joining him were invited to tweet the reason why they deserved the right, nay, privilege to do so.
As fate would have it, the Isles won 5-3, but remember Fishstick fans, if the 4-6-2 record or eight-goalie rotation wasn’t enough to lure you to the game, make sure to stop by the Nassau Mausoleum to see dudes flying from the ceiling and reality show rejects. Why else would you go to a hockey game?
Only because Kim Kardashian is having a tough week. When I searched for Mandingo on Wikipedia, it gave me three options: this film, the novel the film was based on, and the porn star. Sadly, although Mandingo has been nominated for five AVN Awards, including Best Anal Sex Scene twice, he has yet to come away with a trophy. Don’t lose hope, buddy.
So Happy It’s Thursday: Raiders vs. Chargers
Posted: November 10, 2011 by Keith Stone in 2011 NFL Picks, football, NFL, S.H.I.T.
My 11th grade math teacher used the same joke every Thursday. It was like clockwork. “Hey guys, I’m so happy it’s Thursday. Get it? S.H.I.T.” Ahhh, yes. For the rest of the year, we will all be so happy it’s Thursday because we get to watch a mediocre football game. It’s still better than the MLS Playoffs. This week the Raiders visit the Chargers with the right to be eliminated on Wild Card Weekend at stake. The subplots are several! How many interceptions will Carson Palmer throw? Eight? Nine? Will Phil Rivers be the first player in NFL history to murder one of his teammates? How many times will the announcers mention that Antonio Gates played basketball in college? We’re all so happy to make some picks. I hope they’re not all the same! Bud Light, here we go…

Dr. Drew Performs His Most Important Procedure Yet
Posted: November 10, 2011 by Keith Stone in bOObs, Courtney Stodden, Dr. Drew
Much maligned child bride Courtney Stodden has been roundly criticized for her adult looks. Some might think the 17-year-old has been, um, surgically enhanced, but these types of bodily changes are natural for teenagers. Dr. Drew, like myself, does not like to see anyone take heat for things that are out of their control. Saint that he is, Drew magnanimously invited Court to be on his show Dr. Drew’s Lifechangers to prove that she’s as pure as the driven snow. To do this, she was given an ultrasound of her tits (in her heels, of course) by the upstanding Dr. John Diaz, who after much deliberation declared that our girl is 100% real grade-A beef. Thanks Dr. Drew! I knew I should have gone to med school.
