The Blue Workhorse

Have Yao Ming and Miley Cyrus ever met each other? I don’t know. Is that relevant for this article? Not really.

What matters is that Yao Ming is 27 years old. Roger Clemens was 28 years old.

Miley Cyrus is 15 years old, so was Mindy McCready. Cyrus sings country music, so did McCready.

Are you disgusted yet? If the thought of the 7-foot-6, square-headed Chinese basketball player cavorting with the diminutive smiling face of the youngest generation’s #1 star doesn’t disturb you just because of the logistics of their two diverse body types and appearances, the thought of their age gap should be enough to make you shudder.

There is a lot of shit going down in the world of sports. The NBA had its All-Star game, which features the tallest and least sloppy basketball players from across the country. Clemens (and his wife?) allegedly used steroids, but just for better sex, so I can condone.

…

With all this excitement in the sports realm, it makes almost too much sense that I would want to talk about Justin Timberlake, Erik Estrada (the guy from “Chips”), snowboarding, and Rockband.

I really don’t like Roger Clemens, and it wasn’t shocking when he was fingered as a steroid user, but I have to give it to him and Brian McNamee. It seems they are trying to overtake LOST for the most number of plot twists and turns.

The McNamee/Clemens duo should even think about taking their act on the road because combined they are making the countdown to spring training entertaining and interesting. It’s comical at the least, and hilarious at best.
