Mike and Mike find out their not liked
During Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN radio today, Mike Greenberg found out some interesting info about himself and his co-host Mike Golic.
From Fanhouse:
Greenberg said that one day, out of curiosity, he typed "Greenberg Golic ESPN" into Google, and was horrified by the results. Greenberg's bottom-line conclusion: "People cannot stand us."
Sure enough, the first Google result for that search query is a blog post headlined, "Weenie Greenie: ESPN Radio's Mike Greenberg Gives Us All a Lesson in Arrogance." The post mocks Greenberg and "his sub-normal-IQ sidekick Mike Golic."
I really didn't even know that people hated Mike and Mike too. I guess ESPN and bloggers really do hate each other.
Nike yanks the controversial ads
Looks like Nike's feelin the pressure from these ads they recently released.
WSJ - Nike Inc. said it dropped a billboard advertisement in response to critics who complained that the basketball-shoe ads were insensitive to gay men and African-Americans.
The ads, designed by ad agency Wieden+Kennedy, promoted a new line of basketball shoes, called Hyperdunk, that are at the center of Nike's Olympics marketing pitch. The ad featured two unidentified male basketball players; as one flew up to the net for an apparent slam dunk, the other was left below, his face smashed into his opponent's groin.
The scene appeared on outdoor ads in Philadelphia, Atlanta and New York, and was subtitled with slogans like "That Ain't Right" and "Isn't That Cute." Its release prompted a number of blogs to lash out at the company for criticizing gays and African-Americans.
The main pressure on them came from a post on the media blog Gawker.
What do you guys think about the ads?
T.O. makes a fool out of “Don’t call me Pacman” Jones
Cowboys WR Terrell Owens went up against their new CB Pacman Jones yesterday during training camp football.
After the crowd noticed the matchup, Pacman waved his arms in the air to get more attention. You should only do that when your gonna win the matchup.
So what happened?
Owens made a double move to break past the player who wants to be formerly known as “Pacman.” Tony Romo’s long pass hit Owens in stride for what would have been a touchdown.
Owens spiked the ball when he crossed the goal line. As he jogged back toward the huddle, Owens waved his arms in the air, drawing an even louder response and chants of “T-O!, T-O!”
Pacman claims that it isn't always so one sided but we don't believe him. Maybe he should just stick to selling cars.

Dwayne Wade sportin the Baldy
The USA basketball team is currently in Beijing preparing to lose at the Olympics this year. Dwayne Wade is there and he has decided to rock and new look for the olympics. A Baldy.
I'm still trying to decide if I'm feelin the whole "like Mike" look on Dwayne Wade or not. Will it help them win against teams like Argentina in the Olympics, I doubt it.
At least if the whole gold medal run doesn't work out this year, Dwayne Wade can get a job as a stuntman for Mr Marcus' dick.
Do you guys like the new look?
