Spectacular One Year Wonders
2007-06-12 17:56:00 We decided to take a look back into sports history and come up with some of the most spectacular one year wonders. These athletes came into our consciousness for a brief moment of glory, and left just as quickly.- Brady Anderson: Anderson came out of nowhere in 1996, when at age 32, he hit 50 homeruns, besting his previous season high by 29. The next season he hit only 18 homeruns in two more games, and would never again hit more than 24. This was at the height of the "Steroid Era" and there is strong suspicion Anderson got his sudden power with more than just extra batting practice.- The XFL: The brainchild of WWE owner Vince McMahon, the XFL was set up as competition for the NFL, and was quickly put on the air at NBC. The league was supposed to be an edgier, more visceral experience for fans. Instead, they were more well-known for their cheerleaders wearing whorish outfits, and players putting fake names on the back of their jerseys like "He Hate Me". After one season that resulte...
Is Rampage just another Buster Douglas?
2007-06-08 04:35:00 Just when I began thinking Dana White wasn?t too bad of a guy, I read his most recent Q&A conducted by Star Tribune. White answered questions about recent PPV numbers, the expansion of UFC, etc. The typical questions he?s always asked.However, when asked about the recent ?upset? of Jackson-Liddell II at UFC 71, White had this to say:?Q: Chuck Liddell is among the most recognizable UFC fighters. What impact does his recent loss to Quinton Jackson have on UFC?A: It happens in this sport. Guys lose. Chuck is one of those fighters that's going to bounce back. He's a tough guy. ... You never know who's going to win. Chuck getting knocked out was the equivalent of Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson.?I?m unsure whether or not this site is a reliable source, but if it proves to be factual, Dana White is pretty ignorant and looks like a major Chuck nuthugger. Whatever, Dana could be stirring up a setup for a third rematch. Only time will tell.Stay classy fans,The Lianger

If Only Buster Douglas Was Alive to See This
2006-12-02 15:07:44 Boxing News :: Breaking News : Mike Tyson: Fighter, Champ, Male Escort?It's just too easy. Let's do away with pretenses and paragraphs, and just list as many ways this can be worked into a nice little joke.Tyson may make an outstanding prostitute, but some people worry that he may take it on the chin too much.A great endeavor for Tyson, but some people may frown on him taking a dive.Something about nibbling ears.The ladies love when Tyson whispers thweet nothingth in their ears."Iron Mike" doesn't just refer to his punches.Yea, Tyson may service 20 women a day, but Don King then takes like 17 of them.It's not rape if she pays for it.
