Detroit has two of the premier teams in their sports. Hockey and Basketball and with both of their teams still playing now in late May, the competition between them for TV ratings is under the spotlight.

Surprisingly, hockey won out. Now it is the Stanley Cup Finals compared to the Eastern conference championship so it isn’t exactly on the same level but even so.

Pittsburgh’s 3-2 win on Wednesday night earned a 2.8 national rating and an 18.2 rating in Detroit, beating out the 15.9 rating for the Pistons’ matchup with the Boston Celtics.

Game 5 of the NBA’s Eastern Conference finals drew a 5.3 national rating.

Game 3 was the highest rated Stanley Cup final game since 2002. Is Hockey on the comeback? Ehhhh… I doubt it.

Ok so Eli Manning has barely been married a month and already he is completely whipped. It didn’t take his wife long at all.

Eli is pictured here at the premier of Sex and the City with his wife and I’m assuming that he actually sat through the whole thing.

Whats that sound?? I think I hear a whip cracking in the distance!

Ok so it’s already been established that Cristiano Ronaldo has one of the hottest girlfriends on earth but she is trying to take the undisputed crown.

Some new pics of her have surfaced and though we’ve seen her topless before, these are definitely some of the best pics we’ve seen.

Without further ado…. here are her pics and this is one of the reasons we are really jealous of Ronaldo.

So let me get this straight. The media goes to Rasheed Wallace, asks him his opinion on the game, he is honest says how he felt but because of that he gets fined.

Detroit’s Rasheed Wallace was fined $25,000 Thursday by the NBA for using profanity and criticizing the officiating after a playoff game the night before.

After the Pistons’ 106-102 loss to the Boston Celtics in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals, Wallace went on an expletive-laced rant targeting officials Mike Callahan and Kenny Mauer.

“The cats are flopping all over the floor and they’re calling that,” Wallace said. “That ain’t basketball out there. It’s all entertainment. You all should know that.”

It may have been emotional because the game had just finished but he was honest and the league obviously agreed with him because the next day they announced that they are finally gonna crack down on flopping.

Ok so yesterday it was announced that the NBA would be cracking down on all of the flopping. Manu Ginobili is irate.

I mentioned that this was not a new issue for the NBA but this issue goes back even further than I thought.

Back in the day, former Celtics All time great coach Red Auerbach knew what was up back in 1971, the NBA is just figuring it out now.

Thanks to Bullets Forever for this one.

Since Pedro Martinez’s injury, he has been pitching for single A St. Lucie and he is expected to be reactivated next Tuesday in San Fransisco.

Wednesday Martinez threw 6 innings and allowed 2 runs on 4 hits with 6 strikeouts. He has been out for most of the season with a hamstring injury.

Ok so if you would’ve told me in the beginning of the season that the Lakers would be going to the NBA finals, I would’ve thought you were crazy but somehow Kobe and crew managed to pull it together and become the top team in the west.

Congrats to them for their success, congrats to the Spurs for a great season even though it wasn’t quite enough, and WTF is wrong with Sasha Vujacic. I will explain after the video.

Who shoots that shot? The game is clearly over, they aren’t fouling. What was the point of that?

Awful Announcing brought up a good point though. The spread of the game was the Lakers by 7 and a half points. With that shot, anyone who bet on the Lakers wins.
