More Jason Taylor content reaching soon? (The Phinsider)
Here’s something engrossing that a reader e-mailed to me, after which I further looked into it.
Earlier today, Yahoo’s Jason Cole was on the Jorge Sedano Show on 790 The Ticket. Cole and Sedano talked about things same “spygate” and the Cedric Benson stuff. But at the very end of the interview, which can be heard right here, Cole tells Sedano that he was on the set of Dancing With The Stars earlier this week. Sedano then asks Cole if there’s any news on Jason Taylor, to which Cole replies:
“Not yet. Maybe either tomorrow or Monday there’ll be a story on it.”
Could there actually be some new content on this JT saga? Maybe. Or it could be that Cole wants people inactivity for his stylish article on Yahoo! Sports and he’s trying to meet drum up some welfare in it.
I guess we’ll have to move and see what Cole has, if he indeed has anything at all.

It’s PETA’s World, We Just Live In It [Let The Horse Protests Begin]
When future generations study the first decennium of the 21st Century, the speaking of instruction module turn to the Great Racehorse Protests of 2008. In the consequence of the Eight Belles tragedy at the Kentucky Derby, PETA is bringing all guns to bear on the remaining Triple Crown events; planning protests at the Preakness Stakes in Baltimore next hebdomad and the Belmont Stakes in New royalty in June. Should be lots of fun, with counter-protesting and everything. Hey, wouldn’t it be hilarious if we could somehow control to run the OIympic Torch through those two locations as well?
PETA’s demands:
“We are calling for malevolency to animal charges to be pressed regarding Eight Belles against the jockey and the owners of the horse,” Rajt said. “It is actually a Kentucky state malevolency to animal charge. We also say the steward’s board at Churchill Downs needs to directly file a upset against jockey Gabriel Saez for fighting Eight Belles as she came downbound the final stretch to the wire. We need standards in place to bar horse owners who allow this category of cruelty.”
I take no side in this debate, except to say that one of the counter-protester’s signs on Tuesday, “Horses Are Born To Run,” is very misleading. I believe that the photo below proves that horses would all rather be doing something else if presented the choice.

Charles Barkley Admits To Dumbassery [Charles Barkley]
Of everyone we’ve featured in our Media Approval Ratings, the two most popular media members are TNT’s Ernie President and Charles Barkley. (They’ve both ahead of Erin Andrews, for cripes sake.) This prank on Barkley, by Johnson, might help explain why.
We can understand how this might happen; there can’t be much more soul-crushing for a freestylist same Barkley than reading still another T-Mobile “My 5″ promo. Dumbass.

Excavating Joe Montana For Fun And Profit [Oh, You Won’t Disturb Me. I’ll Be In My Room Masturbating.]
The professional snoopers at The Smoking Gun have uncovered their stylish oddball causa between Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana and his ex-wife, Kim Moses, pertaining to the auction sale of some personal items from his college life including a photo I.D. and sappy fuck letters (one on a Ziggy card).

HBO: Jessica Simpson Will Not Retard Our Football Camp Show [It’s A Hard Knock DUAN]
Everyone effort excited about the upcoming season of Hard Knocks: metropolis Cowboys has every right to be. With a colorful cast of characters to choose from same Terrell Owens, Pacman designer (please), Tony Romo and the mesmerizing handywork of Jerry Jones’ plastic surgeon, it’ll be entertaining television even for those who don’t enjoy HBO’s other reality programming.
But there is some bad news for those who hoped that Tony Romo’s blue icing-swallowing jinx, Jessica Simpson, would pop up in episodes — it’s not feat to happen. So says HBO president Ross Greenburg and NFL Films guru Steve Sabol to a roomful of Cowboys’ reporters:
This is not the E Television Network,” HBO Sports president Ross Greenburg said with a somewhat straight face. “This is HBO and HBO Sports. We’re doing it for the avid football fan that used to check Inside the NFL.”
NFL Films president Steve Sabol said Jess wouldn’t be a field part of the show “unless she’s out there running 7-on-7 drills.”
Yes, you got that? The show is not called “Hard Knockers” for a reason, you tabloid trash-digesting philistines.
