Inter Milan wall to be used in construction of new government building

20060927-inter

MILAN- After being so impressed by Internazionale defense with set pieces, Milan mayor Letizia Moratti has commissioned them to be apart of a new government building being created for the department of finance. “After watching watching how they were able to keep anything from passing them and going into the goal during both the Serie A & Champions League campaigns, the Milano government have agreed that along with a consortium of marble & concrete, they will be located at the front of the new deluxe complex”. ” We here in Italy only accept the best materials for purchase and the Italian government believe that this will be seen as a wise investment in future years as Italian defenses are notorious for aging graceful and lasting well longer than other European counterparts.”

The four defenders chosen were Javier Zanetti,Lucio,Macro Materazzi & Walter Samuel. When asked how they felt with spending their rest of their lives being part of a wall, all four unanimously agreed that what the Italian government were proposing was unethical but their pleas fell on deaf ears as they were escorted out of the San Siro and into a government facility where they were frozen in carbonate. Below is a rough representation of how we expect the players to look.

rafael benitez-saidaonline

LIVERPOOL- Liverpool manager and lover off steak and kidney pies Rafa Benitez has promised to stay away from the beef filled pastry dish. This promise came moments after he also stated that Fernando Torres would not be sold this summer
These are not the first promises from the Spaniard this season. Half way through the Christmas & new years schedule Benitez exclaimed that Liverpool would finish within a champions league spot which is looking less and less likely as the scousers have hit a rough patch for the past number of weeks and pretty much the entire season.
Bentiez stated that he would put is career on the line with these promises even though the chances of them happening are becoming slimmer specifically the latest promise about pies. Although not a fan of British culture, Rafa is fond of the odd steak & kidney pie from time to time and has been known to cancel or cut training sessions short in order to pop down to the local food provider outside Anfield. This could be the main reason by Liverpool

Report: Fans vote Kobe & Lebron the greatest NCAA players ever

lebkobKANSAS- A sports survey conducted in the University of Kansas yesterday revealed that most basketball fans have no clue or recollection, as they voted Kobe Bryant & Lebron James as being the greatest NCAA players in the history of the tournament, despite neither player ever playing within the NCAA.

There were 150 participants selected, all personnel were members of the university and 65% chose either Kobe or Lebron as their number one candidate. After discovering this survey ROFLJOCK headed down to to see if this revelation was true and to our disbelief it was. After hunting down two or three of the people who were surveyed, we questioned them on why they picked Kobe and Lebron.

The first participant interviewed was George Khan, a student majoring in Law who when questioned with the original statement, responded as follows ” Well i was first gonna pick someone born in Kansas or a jayhawk like Wilt Chamberlain but when you see what Kobe & LeBron are doing in this day and age no one can compare to them. The second & third respondents merely shouted “Kobe Woooooooooooooo”, ” No Lebron is the king” the two then proceeded to beat each other up, resulting in us leaving swiftly. After examining the questionnaires, a familiar thread cropped up. All 65% of the students who choose Kobe or Lebron were all equal to or under the age of 20 years old, showing the frightening future that lays ahead for us.

NHL considering imposing 15-yard personal foul penalty for head shots

toews-injury
TORONTO- After working together with the NFL on how to cut down the number of head shots in the NHL, the league is considering following the NFL’s model, and imposing 15-yard personal foul penalties on players who deliver deliberate blows to the head. Head shots have been increasing at an alarming rate in the NHL, and the league is looking at all options on how to eradicate them from the game. The NHL has taken notice that in the NFL, shots to the head decreased significantly after the automatic personal foul penalty for such hits was instituted.

“We are looking at all our options,” said NHL commissioner Gary Bettman. “We’ve taken notice at what the NFL has done, and we’d like to follow their lead in order to stop the number of concussions happening in the game. We really like the way they use the 15-yard personal foul penalty, and are hoping we will be able to find a way to do the exact same thing.”

When asked how he plans on enforcing a yardage penalty in a sport that isn’t measure in yards and has no distance markers, the commissioner just reiterated that it is important to find a way to stop blows to the head, and that the league is willing to do anything to stop them from happening.

HBO apologizes for one-sided Pacquiao-Clottey match; plans to have next match as video game on Xbox Live

mannyclotteyDALLAS-If you were at Cowboys’ Stadium Saturday, apologies to you as you had wasted your money. This was HBO’s stance as they watched the one-sided fight against Clottey and Pacquaio unfold that day.

AFter the 6th round of the match which featured Manny punching, and Clottey blocking, officials regretted even holding the match. “I think next time i hold a match of this magnitude, it will be played on xbox live!” said an angry Jerry Jones. EA Sports was thrilled about the idea and hopes Jones fufills those comments so they can showcase the fighters on their current boxing franchise, Fight Night Round 4.

We felt that was a fair assessment since everyone started yawning half way through. This was like an annoying match against your little brother on Mortal Kombat, where you start fighting and he’s scared if losing so he blocks the entire time. Having a fight on the video game, would have both players controlled by the computer, and the computer hopefully would have both boxers throwing punches, not just one.

“This was supposed to be a fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquaio, but we just couldn’t make it happen, Clottey was the next big shot available at the time.” explained promoter Bob Arum. Arum further mentioned that he was highly sure Manny would win but he didn’t think he’d win this convincingly.

Boxing experts, really didnt’ expect a knock out by Manny. Maybe a TKO from excess blood or fatigue from missed punches from Clottey was expected, but nonetheless, a Pacquiao win.

Eva Longoria sick of Parkers floaters…in the toilet

act_tony_parkerLOS ANGELES- Desperate Housewife actress and fun sized lover of french point guard Tony Parker has revealed to colleagues on set that a week into her husbands latest injury that he keeps leaving ‘floaters’ in the bathroom and that its a disgusting sight to see when she walks into one of the couples many water closets.

When drilled by his wife on the matter, parker hinted that because of his recent hand injury he can’t flush the commode and this has left his wife far from amused at the site of one of his infamous floaters. Many NBA fans have witnessed the majesty of Parkers floaters but Longoria states that there is nothing beautiful or entertaining about these sort of floaters.

” We got a lot of bathrooms in our mansion in San Antonio, so he often forgets to tell me which one he left his little surprise in. So a couple of times already the past week ive gone into one, sit down only to notice one floating around in there, the first time i throw up in my mouth a little” said the disturbed hollywood starlet.

She finished her intimate talk with cast & crew members saying that its worse when its in the main bathroom , next to their bedroom as the smell transfers into their room at night.

Darts magazine declares Phil ‘The Power’ Taylor greatest athlete of 21st Century

phil_taylor_74941tCOLCHESTER- Darts magazine ‘Bullseye’ has declared Phil Taylor has the greatest athlete of the 21st century, within nine years of the centuries beginning. Taylor, pictured above is widely recongised as the greatest darts player ever to play the sport, Bulleyes editor Dave Wilson and a panel of experts employed by the magazine believe that Taylor is not only the best darts player ever but possibly the greatest athlete ever. ” Phil is definetly one of a kind, someone who comes along ever millennium and i think it’s time that the entire sporting world realises that”.

Although only ten years into the present century, Wilson exclaims that Taylor might as well already be giving the award as there presently no one near as athletic as him and also there probably wont be anyone that could compete with his atlethic prowess with the next one hundred years.

“You got your Lebron James’s, Manny Pacquiao’s, Lance Armstrong’s etc but when you compare how little training and technique they have as well as the natural born gifts and endurance needed for the sport of darts there really is no comparison or competition for that matter”.

Clausen not so thrilled about NFL after hearing Kiper’s prediction

jimmy-clausenSOUTH BEND, Ind- Notre Dame quarterback and projected top 5 pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, Jimmy Clausen, is no longer eager to begin his professional career. After seeing draft guru Mel Kiper’s projection of him, Clausen does not even believe in himself and his ability to compete in the NFL. Kiper marked down Clausen for weak arm strength and low accuracy.

“The man has been doing nothing but draft analysis for years,” the second team All-American said of Kiper, “he is probably never ever wrong. He marked me down and I doubt there is anything I can do to improve my skill level to impress him.”

NFL teams are now wary of Clausen too. One NFL scout said, “if the kid doesn’t even believe in himself, how does he expect any team to draft him?” A team is not going to want a quarterback who is not capable of leading the team.

Still, Clausen is expected to be one of the first 3 quarterbacks chosen in the April draft.

David Beckham tears achilles tendon; Americans relieved his face is ok.

beckhamFINLAND- David Beckham is currently undergoing surgery in Finland for his achilles tendon. Due to a stress reaction from playing soccer in the final minutes of a Sunday game, Beckham was seen clutching his heel in agony, later on, fans saw it was a serious injury and it appeared his achilles tendon was torn.

Every Beckham fan and friend alike, was living a nightmare at that moment. “It’s just bad timing on everything, I mean the world cup is coming up. I know there’s alot of disappointed fans out there too.” said a frustrated Beckham. John Wooden, Beckham’s North American public relations officer, however said his american fan counterparts, have been singing a different tune.

Several interviews conducted around LA and Chicago, two of the MLS’ major franchised cities, showed a different reaction from fans to the injury. A decked out LA Galaxy fan was told of the injury and his response was a sigh of relief after he asked if his face had been damaged. “Really, I don’t watch soccer. All our teams in this city suck, and no.. dont’ bring up the LA Dodgers because baseball sucks.. I just think David Beckham’s cute.. you know.. in a guy kinda way..”

Another fan out of Chicago, had to be reminded who Beckham was again. “lol.. i thought it was a beer!” she said. Our interviewer corrected her by saying, “No Ma’am, that’s Becks” She then went on to rant about how Beckham’s looks can help market Becks beer but at that point we just nodded our heads silently in disappointment.

Some other fans we interviewed just hoped he’d be able to do movies more underwear commercials. “That soccer thing is just to keep him busy, I didn’t think one could get injured from that boring sport” commented one of them out of a crowd.
