RAJON FUCKING RONDO!!
When Rajon Rondo plays like he did the Celtics are unbeatable. And as I've said throughout the playoffs, I'll start worrying about our road problems when somebody proves they can win at the Garden. In other words, I wonder when the parade is?
Tomase Says His Explanation (Not Apology) Is Coming Friday...We Wait With Baited Breath.....
Bostonherald.com - Readers of this space have probably been asking themselves, “Where the hell is Tomase?” over the last couple of days and it’s a fair query. Right now I’m just landing from Washington and working on a story about Arlen Specter’s press conference regarding his interview with Matt Walsh. While that is going to have me tied up for the rest of the night, I just wanted to make one thing clear — I know I screwed up on the Rams taping story and I don’t intend to hide behind today’s apology or an editor’s note. In Friday’s Herald I will explain as clearly as I can where that story went wrong and begin the journey of restoring your trust in my reporting.I cannot in good conscience demand accountability of the people I cover and then not provide it myself. So it’s coming on Friday. Just be patient.
John
This should be fun. I love how he thinks working on an Arlen Specter article is more important than an explanation article. Is he really that clueless?
This guy needs a publicist STAT! He couldn't make people hate him more if he tried. Where is Regan Communications when you need them? I'm not sure how it's possible that he is waiting till Friday, but it should be fun nonetheless. It's almost like he's begging to be fired or stoned to death. Anything less than a voluntary leave of absence will be unacceptable.
Storm Cat Retires From Banging; Horse Cock to Go in Hall of Fame
LEXINGTON, Ky. - The great American sire Storm Cat has been pensioned from stud duty, Overbrook Farm announced Tuesday.
The 25-year-old Storm Bird horse had shown declining fertility this year and has three mares in foal, according to Ric Waldman, who managed the stallion for Overbrook. Storm Cat covered more than 30 mares in 2008 at a fee of $300,000, down from his $500,000 fee in 2007.
"We have been monitoring his semen quality throughout the breeding season, and there's been a decline in the quality of his semen," Waldman said.
Storm Cat will remain at Overbrook in Lexington for the remainder of his days.
Well let’s everybody tip a barrel of hay and fuck somebody tonight in honor of the great Storm Cat retiring from banging. I’m getting emotional just writing this, but if you saw the feature that HBO’s “Real Sports” did a few years ago, you know what Storm Cat has done in the world of banging horses makes Wilt Chamberlain look like your 8th grade Science teacher. We’re talking a 22 year stud career where he banged 434 broads that produced 1687 foals -- some selling in upwards of 5 million dollars . He even had a freakin 24-hour armed guard like the one at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to protect his genitals. I mean could Wilt say that? Maybe. So here’s to you, Storm Cat. We'll see your cock & balls in Cooperstown.

Bonus Red Sox Blog - Heidi Watney Report Card
Today
Vs.
Yesterday
See don't tell me that NESN isn't paying attention to our Heidi Watney report cards. Clearly they read my blog this morning and then had a corporate meeting about fixing up her shirt. MUCH better today. All she needed was a tighter shirt with more boob support. Simple. Unfortunately I don't like the hair. I think she nailed the hair yesterday. But I love the effort!
Highest grade of the season.

Barstool Sports Local Smokeshow of the Day (Desiree)
Introducing Desiree (I assume pronounced Desire) once again from Providence. This girl is so far out of my league that I feel like I need to hide or apologize for just looking at her photos. Kind of reminds me of Elisha Cuthbert when she was still hot.
PS - I totally love that shirt she is wearing that says "Do I Make You Look Fat?" Listen, it ain't bragging if you can do it.
Do you know any girls that you make you wish you weren’t fat and gross and actually worked out? Send them our way at randomthoughts@barstoolsports.com
Arlen Specter: Crazy or Evil?
WASHINGTON (AP) - Sen. Arlen Specter wants an independent investigation of the Patriots' taping of opposing coaches' signals similar to the Mitchell Report on performance enhancing drugs in baseball. Specter again criticized the league's handling of the investigation and threatened the possibility of revoking the NFL's antitrust exemption during a news conference Wednesday. The senior Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee met with former New England video assistant Matt Walsh a day earlier. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell indicated he considered the investigation over after meeting with Walsh on Tuesday. "Everybody pooh-poohs it," Specter said. "It's ridiculous to make that kind of contention." Specter, from Pennsylvania, cited the fact a Patriots attorney sat in on Walsh's meeting with Goodell as proof the investigation has not been impartial. "It's an insult to the intelligence of the people who follow it." If the NFL condones cheating, Specter said, it encourages others to cheat. "They owe the public a lot more candor and a lot more credibility," he said.
Wow. All I can say is "wow." I really thought that when the NFL said there was nothing more to SpyGate, when the Herald said there was nothing more to it,when Matt Frickin' Walsh said there was nothing more to it, Arlen Specter (R-Comcast) was going to go stand behind the bank of microphones and say "Whoops! Sooo-rrry! My bad. I thought there was something going on here but I guess I sorta had my head up my ass. I was blinded by all the Eagles and Steelers fans who are registered voters and all the money I get from the cable TV lobbyists and I guess I've been wasting everyone's time. Boy do I feel stupid. Sorry, Patriots!"
But no. The old coot is still pissed off. So pissed off in fact he can't articulate what is pissing him off, just that he's determined to be pissed off and he's not going to let a little thing like the truth get in the way. Matt Walsh failed to produce anything the Pats hadn't 'fessed up to (except for the shots of the Chargers cheerleaders... nice work there, Spielberg) but Sen. Sphincter is still seeing conspiracies everywhere. The Patriots cheated! I know they did! It's a coverup, man! 9/11 was an inside job! The moon landing was filmed in a TV studio! Area 51! They saved Hitler's brain! Don't tase me, bro!!!
I mean, how can you even refute his claims when he doesn't make any? How can you argue his logic in the absence of any logic? What's his beef, that a lawyer from the Patriots was in the room during the meeting? Does he think the Pats lawyer use a Jedi mind trick on Goodell? And since when does a lawmaker have a problem with lawyers being around? Isn't that like a fry cook hating fat people? And what's this business about "condoning" cheating? Did I miss something or didn't the Pats lose a 1st round pick and three quarts of Belichick's blood? Missing in all this too is any mention of the fact that not only did the Patriots NOT spy on the Rams, the Rams spied on them, as reported by the Stool back in February. For some reason I can't remember Arlen Specter screaming for an investigation into it, questioning Mike Martz integrity, suggesting their Super Bowl win over Tennessee was tainted or claiming that the NFL was covering up for St. Louis. Of course he'd never pull such and obvious, grandstanding ploy.
So which is it? Is Specter really loony enough to believe what he's saying or is he just rotten to the core? Vote "1" for "Nuts" and "10" for "Evil."
Brian Scalabrine "Fuck Lebron" Rap Song
Scal ain't worried and neither am I. I know we can't win a road game, but guess what? Neither can our opponents. By my math that means we'll still win Banner #17. It just won't be easy, but it never is.

What is Up With Miranda's "Girlfriend"?
Every time I see a picture of Miranda's girlfriend I can't help but make an "guh" face. I mean Miranda's definitly isn't hot, but can't she pull a little bit better ass than this? After all she is famous. Plus if you're going to date a chick who looks like a Star Wars geek, why not just date men to begin with? She must think dicks are gross and wants nothing to do with them right? That's got to be it.

Westport High Students Suspended For Drinking On Spring Break In Paris
WESTPORT, Mass. -- A group of students went to Europe for a class trip and came home to a suspension for drinking alcohol. Sixteen of the 32 Westport High School students who traveled to Paris and Barcelona on their Spring Break were suspended for nine days for drinking on their trip. The drinking age in only 16 in Spain, which made them legal at the time. The students said this trip was not school sponsored. The Westport School Committee argues that they approved the trip, therefore the students had to follow the school policy. Some of the students plan to go face-to-face before the superintendent and school committee on Tuesday night to talk about the issue.
I totally don’t get this story. First of all since when do High School kids go on Spring Break? I’ve never even heard of that before? Does this mean that 16 is the new 18? Because this would totally open the door for us to talk about a whole new crop of sluts. It would be like when American Idol changed their age restrictions. But I digress. If these kids could drink legally in Paris how the fuck can you suspend them here? It’s crazy. I don’t even think they should be suspended if they drank illegally. I mean what these kids do on vacation a million miles away is up to them. It’s not like the school paid for the trip right? It just makes no sense on any level. Mind your own business dude.
Heidi Watney Report Card
I feel like I’ve seen Heidi wear this outfit 3 or 4 times already which leads me to believe she thinks it looks good. I hate to break it to you Heidi, but you’re not exactly bringing it in the boob department and this shirt does nothing for you in that regard. My advice would be to get rid of the black thing underneath and just go bra. That’s what all the hot sluts are doing nowadays. And for anybody who thinks we’re being too hard on Heidi please keep in mind that we’re just trying to motivate her to stay in shape and look hot at all times. Erin Andrews gets it and so should she.

Crazy Bitch On the Subway....(MUST WATCH)
How is it possible that I'd never seen this video until two seconds ago. I'm totally speechless. I mean it's one thing to talk shit to an 83 year old lady. But to free style rap, right in her face? That is a whole different type of fucked up.

Rate the Herald Apology
Boston Herald - On Feb. 2, 2008, the Boston Herald reported that a member of the New England Patriots[ team stats]’ video staff taped the St. Louis Rams’ walk through on the day before Super Bowl XXXVI. While the Boston Herald based its Feb. 2, 2008, report on sources that it believed to be credible, we now know that this report was false, and that no tape of the walk through ever existed. Prior to the publication of its Feb. 2, 2008, article, the Boston Herald neither possessed nor viewed a tape of the Rams’ walk through before Super Bowl XXXVI, nor did we speak to anyone who had. We should not have published the allegation in the absence of firmer verification. The Boston Herald regrets the damage done to the team by publication of the allegation, and sincerely apologizes to its readers and to the New England Patriots [ team stats]’ owners, players, employees and fans for our error.
NOT GOOD ENOUGH! In terms of apologies I rank this as a 2. First of all I don't like how on the front page of the Herald it says "We Own Up To Our Mistake" like they deserve a cookie for finally coming forward. I felt like I was at a press conference where an athlete reads an apology from a script and could care less about what they're reading. The Herald did this just so people will stop boycotting their asses. And where is that fat fuck Tomase in all of this? Is he going to get suspended? Or is the Herald just saying "Oops, our bad. We'll try not to fuck up next time the Pats are in the Superbowl." I mean come on! People have to be held accountable! Bottomline is that just saying sorry is not enough. Tomase has to be punished before we can move on.
Vote 1 for worst apology ever. Vote 10 with you're cool with it.
