Sports Conspiracy Theorist? Maybe but here are some curious pieces of news!
Jose Bautista, the sometimes right fielder and sometimes third baseman for the Toronto Blue Jays, belted his 20th homerun of the year Saturday against the Cleveland Indians. Bautista is on pace to hit over 60 homeruns this season. How can a can a career journeyman (Baltimore, Kansas City, Pittsburgh twice, Tampa Bay, and Toronto), who is now 30 years old, all of the sudden hit 54 homeruns in 2010 and possibly hit 50 or 60 this year when his previous season’s best was 16 homeruns in 2006?!?! Hate to be skeptical but… something doesn’t seem on the up and up here. All the talk has been about his stance being changed which has lead to his increased homerun production. If Sammy Sosa could understand English again, he would tell us that's what helped his playing career as well!
ABC and the NFL?
Is it a coincident that the NFL has a television contract with ABC and ESPN, both under the same ownership, and all of these NFL players keep winning or placing in the top three on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars”?
Checkout the results:
Jerry Rice, Hall of Fame wide receiver, came in second in the winter of 2006, Emmit Smith, Hall of Fame running back, won in the fall of 2006, Jason Taylor, former Miami Dolphins and NY Jets defensive end, came in second in the spring of 2008, Warren Sapp, former defensive lineman for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders, came in second in fall of 2008, and Hines Ward, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, won in the spring of 2011; linebacker Kirstie Alley came in second!
Burn it down maybe we can get insurance money for it!
Did Frank McCourt try to burn down Dodger Stadium Saturday night for the insurance money? In the 5th inning of the Dodger’s game versus the Florida Marlins, smoke billowed out of the upper tier sections in right field down into the bleacher sections. Los Angeles Fire Department officials said the fire was caused by paper igniting in a storage section below the reserved sections. The fire was quickly put out and no one was hurt at Dodger Stadium… this time.
Nothing has gone right for the Dodger’s this season. Nothing!!! Of course the Dodgers lost that game as well.
