Europe's newest 19 year old just got a whole lot richer
Brandon Jennings wanted to sign an endorsement deal with Under Armour.
Then two months later — to the day, even — Under Armour officially announced that the hoops star finally figured out how to compose a signature — something that probably would’ve boosted his SAT scores.
But you know what? That’s not the news. Nope, not even close.
The real news here is that Jennings will write a blog for Under Armour’s Web site. You read that correctly. He will write a blog. The kid who couldn’t scholastically qualify to play Division I basketball will write a blog.
It’s undoubtedly a huge blow to the sports blogging community that takes pride in its witty snark. Whereas now, our superior level of eloquent writing will include lines like: “Yoooo I been ballin’ up dis little italian dude… but itz all good feel me cuz me makes legit pasta son.”
It’s no secret that Michael Phelps has some new admirers that he didn’t have two weeks ago. That includes crushes from ladies all over the planet. Even AT&T has jumped on the bandwagon of love and fanship.
We can guarantee, however, that there are new Phelps Phans that the swimmer wouldn’t touch with a 10-foot poll. This Ms. Piggy look-alike is a good example. What a jewel.
But to answer your question, Ms. Piggy: No, Phelps is not gay. You haven’t seen him with a woman because the only time you’ve seen him in your life is in the past week-and-a-half because you turned on the television (surprise) instead of walking your fat ass on a treadmill and you wanted to tune into what the rest of the world was witnessing.
Nothing’s better than an enthusiastically hilarious professional athlete who can keep the media and fans cracking up. It shows they are truly human and fun. Shaq is one of these guys. Eric Byrnes is another example. Sammy Sosa was one of those guys, too.
But one of the best ways to express your fun side if you’re a pro athlete is through the Internet. Yes, the cyberworld opens you up to a much larger audience. Some of the best NBA guys have latched onto this.
Kobe jumping over cars and snakes became popular because of the net. Gilbert Arenas never fails to amaze readers on his blog. And Greg Oden is kinda like a giant teddy bear. But don’t forget about Channing Frye, either.
