Sexual assault joke made by LA Kings Twitter Account

An unfortunate, off-color sexual assault joke was tweeted on the LA Kings Twitter account tonight.

Most official sports teams Twitter accounts are very dry and dull. And/or overly positive all the time. The LA Kings Twitter account is an exception. At times it can be quite funny, snarky and irreverent. Unfortunately, the LA Kings went a little too far by letting Kevin Ryder, of the Kevin and Bean show on KROQ Los Angeles, live Tweet the LA Kings vs. San Jose Sharks Stanley Cup playoff game.

Ryder took over during the second period of Tuesday night’s game.

Cavs all time champs of NBA Draft Lottery

CLEVELAND-CAVS-LOGO

The NBA Draft Lottery was held Tonight and we found out the Cleveland Cavs will pick first in the 2013 NBA Draft.

The Cavs have been lucky enough to get No. 1 pick 3 times in 11 years. However, the Cavs have also been bad enough to get No. 1 pick three times in 11 years.

Unlike last year when Anthony Davis was the clear cut top prospect, a number of players are in consideration this year including Kentucky‘s Nerlens Noel, Ben McLemore of Kansas, and even Michigan‘s Trey Burke or Georgetown‘s Otto Porter.  More than likely, team need will play a huge factor in terms of which player hears their named called first on June 27th.

May 21, 2013 by Leave a Comment

nfl-draft

The NFL Draft is moving from April to May. Possibly. This NFL Draft move, should it happen, would help make May much less of a boring, dull sports month. Seriously, when the NBA Draft Combine is the highlight of the month, ouch babe. That’s why they tell you in the stock market, “sell in May and go away.”

According to CBS Sports:

More breaking Kate Upton news.

Because of course, Kate Upton news is always the most important kind of news you’ll find. Kate Upton high school yearbook photos have surfaced on “the internets.” I only included the pictures from when Kate Upton was legal. So you don’t have to feel like a creepy weirdo for looking at these pics.

You can feel like a creepy weirdo in general for looking at Kate Upton pictures at work. Then again if you’re a red-blooded male, or female for that matter, how can you not look at Kate Upton photos at work? Beats working, right?

The Chicago Cubs might lose 95 games this year. Who knows with this move today, maybe they’ll only lose 90. Or maybe not. The Cubs claimed right-handed pitcher Eduardo Sanchez off waivers from the first place St. Louis Cardinals. Getting a cast off from the front-running Cardinals has got to help, right?

To their credit, the Cubs aren’t in last place. They’re penultimate in the NL Central. The Milwaukee Brewers are behind them.

ESPN cutting jobs, despite booming profits

ESPN is doing really well financially. ESPN has “beat the street” considerably, and consistently recently. However, despite surging profits, they will lay off a substantial number of workers. Hopefully, Darren Rovell is one of them! Ha!

ESPN parent corporation Disney has matched or exceeded earnings per share estimates for the last eight fiscal quarters. Disney also recently reported a 32 percent gain in net income. Distribution fees are increasing better than expected and ESPN also is enjoying skyrocketing prices for broadcast rights.

ESPN will televise the new college football playoff system, which will grab them another $470 million annually.

Sometimes Chicago Cubs fan and sometimes New York Yankees fan Hillary Clinton should definitely keep her vagina protected. Keep her vagina on high alert, because a far right wing nut job is looking to attack it. The former Senator and current Secretary of State is under fire over Benghazi from the right wing media machine.

Faux Noise Channel has been wall to wall with Benghazi coverage for quite some time.  But one radio talk show host has gone more direct with his threats on Hillary Clinton, Park Ridge, Illinois’ most famous product.

Do we need professional cheerleaders in hockey and baseball?

May 21, 2013 by 6 Comments

marlinsauds

In recent years, the NHL has introduced “Ice Crews” which are essentially hockey’s version of cheerleaders. And the Florida Marlins and Cincinnati Reds have brought scantily clad babes to baseball now too. What do you think of these developments? blaspheme? or long overdue?

We’ve accepted NFL Cheerleaders and NBA Dance Teams, but do hockey and baseball need them?

Do you we even need them in football and basketball for that matter?

I invite you to voice your opinions on these ideas below, just the TSB staff did.

Riot Fest, Warped Tour, different ideas with the same goal

May 21, 2013 by Leave a Comment

Riot Fest and Warped Tour will invade Chicago and the suburbs in what has been an annual rite of summer. The two music festivals share the common goal of bringing some of the best bands in punk rock, metal, and hardcore and have been successful executing so differently.

Warped Tour was formed in 1994 by Kevin Lyman, who still runs it today. Warped travels across the country during the summers months bringing dozens of acts to areas large enough to hold a six stage venue. Besides music, the tour has included extreme sports, tents upon tents of merchandise, and meet and greets with bands before and after sets. Warped has also traveled internationally to Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Canada, and Europe.

The Sports Bank‘s series of NBA off-season team needs pages begins with the worst team in the league this past season; the Orlando Magic.  The franchise suffered a major setback after dealing disgruntled superstar Dwight Howard last off-season.  They enter the off-season stuck with a roster of average talent and rather than trying to scrape by, it is time for the Orlando Magic to blow up their roster and get straight to rebuilding mode.

Deadspin chronicles Darren Rovell’s awkward supermodel exchanges

I’ve often said that if the Darren Rovell Twitter account were a human being, and a high school student, it would get beat up repeatedly.

Each day, the jocks would take the Darren Rovell Twitter persona and shove him in the locker. The greatest example of Darren Rovell being awkward in social media occurs when he interacts with Kate Upton; or tells us how the Playboy Mansion Super Bowl party is lame; at least by his standards.

Yes, Darren Rovell hanging out with the Prom Queens and Head Cheerleaders is always amusing:
