Day 440

• The National Anthem is now required BY LAW at all Texas professional sporting events.
• Mickey Callaway has been fired by the Angels and banned from Major League Baseball for at least 18 months for sexual harassment, including the sending of lewd photos to at least five women.
• Major incident in the NBA playoffs.  Russell Westbrook was being led back to the locker room with an ankle injury when an opposing 76er fan dumped popcorn on him.  We nearly had another Ron Artest incident -- at least six men had to hold Westbrook back.
• To the fear of many of his professional wrestling fans, the prognosis for Will Ospreay's neck and back does not look good.  Nor to any of their surprise.   
• Once Real Madrid failed to defend their league title, Zinedine Zidane resigned as manager.
• There is a major brewing incident between Fox Sports and the NFL - a possibly unauthorized airing of a call with Julio Jones (now adding he would not go to the Cowboys) may seriously damage and impair access to the Falcons and to major matchups for Fox in the new TV contract.
• There is increasing speculation that not only did Congress want to get involved in an investigation of Spygate in 2008, but that Donald Trump actually attempted to bribe a US Senator then to stop that investigation.  HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM......  And I'm not necessarily saying that on any ground outside the NFL and it's rigging itself!!!   
• Speaking of the Patriots, their former kicker, Adam Vinateri, retired from the NFL today.
• The spotter for Chase Elliott has been banned by NASCAR for being charged with assault of a pregnant woman (the unborn child carries an additional offense in the state in which the assault occurred).  An additional charge for NASCAR is that the spotter was required, under the rules, to notify NASCAR within 72 hours of the charge or before the next race -- he did not do so.  Hendrick has fired him -- it is unknown at this time whether the additional NASCAR offense will result in penalties to the Elliott team.  
• A legal complaint has been filed over the sale of the Minnesota Timberwolves -- and part of that complaint is the possibility that the new owners may attempt to move the team.
• And in continuing Aaron Rodgers IDIOCY...  We have "The Match 3".  July 6th.  Phil Mickelson and Tom Brady vs. Aaron Rodgers...  and THE SHAM BEAU.  FUCK THAT ROIDIE FUCK -- AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TRYING TO DO, RODGERS....  Burn a few more bridges while you are at it.
