Poor OJ can't catch a break (well, other than that minor break he caught a few years back). Last week he gets convicted of stealing cable (he should live in Chocolate City, they don't have a clue) and now the organizers of the National Sports Collectors Convention basically tossed him out when he showed up to sign autographs. It seems Juice was indeed invited by an exhibitor to the convention, but the convention used the old "scared of a double murderer" clause to boot his ass. Hang tough OJ, we're all pulling for you.
I love Canadian rocker Bryan Adams as much as the next guy (well not as much as Joe Corcoran, but that's a whole other story), but I have officially had it with his song "Open Road", which serves as the theme to SportsCenter's "50 States in 50 Days " series. I mean, they've only made it through 15 states or so, and Linda Cohn is already starting to fall apart (well, at least more than usual). How about airing some sports highlights ESPN.
The Larry Brown saga was pretty much ignored here at GTB (and with good reason - who gives a shit), but I couldn't let this nugget pass. Apparently the Sopranos cast halted a scene with James Gandolfini in pajamas to shoot a video urging Brown to take the Knicks job. Well done fellas. Which reminds me, Sunday night I caught the episode where Tony pummels Ralphie to death, which got me pumped for next season, until I realized these guys take 3 years off between seasons, and I probably won't see a new episode until 2006. Fuck.
The latest from Dick Wolf - Law and Order: Fallujah? Yesterday, Iraq's national security advisor said the trial of Saddam Hussein will be shown on live television. Nancy Grace has already booked her Motel 8 and camel. Geraldo is fast on her heels.

Gandolfini is also featured on billboards and commercials for Rutgers football, including one outside the Miami airport which most likely confuses the crap out of most people.
That Miami billboard confuses me.
The genius of porn:
"A lot has changed since then. Now I can't even have sex unless I'm going to get my tushy [penetrated]. I don't feel like I'm finished without anal."
--Mari Possa, on her thoughts on anal scenes now, as opposed to a year ago when she was reticent to do them
Keep 'em coming...Mariners pitcher Ryan Franklin (who killed my fantasy team in two starts this year) is gonna get the 10 day suspension for 'roid use as well. Perhaps MLB can keep us entertained with 1 suspension a day.
How about a little love for Derrek Leon Lee (absolutely carrying one of my fantasy teams)...Going into tonight's games, here's where he stands in his quest for the Triple Crown:
