rusty weathers When your response to "how old are you?" is "me?" ... you're lying. Just like answering "me?" to a question from your wife:
Where were you last night?
What were you doing in there?
Did you sleep with her?

For a good majority of this week, the focus of my conversations with BabyJ has been the ridiculousness of the NBA MVP coverage. It’s come up a scary number of times.
Today, a major media outlet (that we enjoy greatly) gave its take on the shitstorm.
We battled the depression with ...
Miguel Tejada busted lying about age on ESPN, Video
Published 4/18/2008 by ethanator1088 at NESW Sports, Sports Videos
Miguel Tejada busted lying about age on ESPN, Video. Miguel Tejada lied about his age as many players do. They do it so they are seen as phenoms. They play like they are 19, but they say they are 17. They lie to make themselves appear like a great deal. Kind of like using steroids.
Tejada reminds me a lot of Sammy Sosa. They both played dumb when they got caught. Sammy forgot how to speak English. Tejada was told what the birth certificate was, then he keeps asking,” What is this? Who gave you this?”. He was acting like it ...
E:60 Now Embarrassing Innocent People on Camera
Published 4/18/2008 by ericjhoro at Shakedownsports.com
E:60’s ambush of Miguel Tejada was flat out wrong. It was television at it’s lowest point. Pure exploitation in order to get ratings. What did Tejada do to deserve being lured into a studio and left bare in front of a camera on live tape-delayed TV? This isn’t “To Catch a Predator.” Nobody can think to themselves that the guy on camera deserved what he got. Nobody can think ESPN was helping out it’s viewers by calling attention to Tejada’s real age. It was simply entrapment. Tom Ferry tricked Tejada into lying and then he had the brazeness to keep yelling questions as Tejada left the ...
Age Taint Nothing But A Number

The following video is sure to be all over the webz today (if it isn't already), but I still had to share because it made me Sherm LOL-ler.
A few thoughts here:
A. I would have bet $2500 that that little shithead Jeremy Schaap was doing this interview, but to my surprise it was, uh... some other guy.
Secondly, now we're pretty sure Tejada took PEDs and lied about his age. Neither one of these is earth shattering, but it still makes me snicker. We need to find cork in his bats so he can officially become the clown prince of baseball cheaters.
3. I'm sure we'll see a ...

Modern Tube: Miguel Tejada did not see that document coming
Published 4/18/2008 at Big League Stew
My pals over at Walkoff Walk are saying we're not supposed to be feeling bad for Miguel Tejada (a.k.a Stan Kowalski,) for being suckerpunched by ESPN, but the truth is, I kinda do*. *Let's see you survive an ambush attack from ABC's John Stossel and not have a bit of sympathy in a similar position of vulnerability**. **You want to know why was John Stossel standing next to my car in that parking garage?*** ***Something about being a slumlord.**** ...

ESPN Plays "To Catch A Predator" [Miguel Tejada]
Published 4/18/2008 by Leitch at Deadspin
How you react to E:60's "Gotcha!" report on Miguel Tejada's age, we've found, depends a lot on whether or not you're a journalist.
Most journalists we've talked to dream of moments like this; you have a guy you know is lying to you, lies to you to your face and then you NAIL him as he scurries away. Everyone else, you know, regular people, think reporter Tom Ferry trapped Tejada and purposely embarrassed him on camera. (In uniform, no less!)
Frankly, we tend to veer toward the latter camp, despite, you know, being ostensibly (theoretically?) a journalist. As ...

I kind of feel bad about this ambush on Miguel Tejada, but it's pretty funny as well
E:60 is a joke
Published 4/19/2008 by Mario A. at Wax Heaven
I already have issues with ESPN (Sportscenter=worst show ever) but this 60 Minutes rip-off show is a joke. If Miguel Tejada is eventually proven to be a cheater that is one thing but to have him come on camera and then be bombarded the way he was is absolutely shameless. It’s not like the man lied to not pay taxes or something ridiculous. ...

Weekend’s Best - Danica Dani-can!
Published 4/21/2008 by Garbage Points at MVN Outsider
5. Female Drivers - For years, uninformed males like myself loved to poke fun at women for their poor driving. Finally, some broad has come along to shut me up. Danica Patrick won her first race in 50 starts and became the first woman to ever win an IndyCar race. This factoid will replace Danica’s previous claim to fame: “IndyCar driver most likely to flirt their way out of a speeding ticket”. Oink oink, mama.
The biggest thing this win proves in that Danica is more than just a pretty face. She’d been compared to Anna Kournikova for much of her career, in that neither had major success and were more ...

Could Miguel Tejada Get Deported?
Published 4/22/2008 by Stephen Kersey at Knuckle Curve - Baseball News
Miguel Tejada keeps finding himself in more and more legal trouble. His troubles started when he apparently lied about any knowledge regarding steroids. Former teammates Adam Piatt and Jose Canseco both say they discussed steroids with Tejada.
Even more damning, Piatt has produced proof that Tejada purchased steroids from him. If those claims by Piatt and Canseco could proven, Tejada could be charged with lying to federal investigators.
Recently, Tejada has found himself in even more controversy. After checking birth certificates in his home country of the Dominican Republic, reports surfaced that Tejada is actually two years ...
