... I've gotta say, the Apple and Visa commercials with Yao Ming amuse me greatly. and it says something that he's already a better actor than Shaq, and he hardly speaks any english. Yao just might be my favorite non-Duke grad of all time.

and no, I never went to Duke, I'm just down with the Blue Devils (though between Laettner's underwhelming journeyman career, Hill's injuries and Bobby Hurley's car accident way back when, the Dukies have been taking a beating after draft day lately it seems...)

... and speaking of taking beatings, I've felt better... Rox and I babysat for a friend last night. the kids didn't injure me, but a patch of ice in the driveway did! nothing too nasty, just scattered aches and pains. I've really got to work on this whole "being a klutz" thing. ;)

... memo to Clifford Etienne: aim for Tyson's tattoo. anyone who gets a tattoo on his face right before a heavyweight boxing bout deserves to be punched there repeatedly.

yup, it's some sort of curvy tribal thing, possibly Maori, definitely counter-productive to being punched on it.

He probably doesn't even remember getting it done :)

Maybe he was hungry. With the massive ammount of alimony and other court determined debts, he probably doesn't have tht much left over for groceries.
What I want to know is, since this will no doubt be the last time Tyson gets a real fight...and this Etienne punk barely counts, why did he have to even pretend that he wasn't going to fight? 5 Million just for showing up, who cares about "winning"?

It's a freak show in the making...can't hardly wait.

if it went off without a hitch, it wouldn't be a Tyson fight!

And here, he has to go and put the guy's lights out in less than 2 minutes!

One of the only good parts of a recent weak renter "Undisputed" Wesley Snipes and Ving Rahmes...like Rocky in prison is a line about a quickly defeated boxer, "he's a bum!
A Big Unco-ordinated Muther-fucker!"

But I suppose if I was Etienne I might be thinking, ' I already got a million just for showing up, do I really want to let Mike beat on me any more?"
C'mon take the money and run, woo-hoo-hoo!
