Spike Albrecht to Kate Upton: Call Me!

This is what we call one serious heat check. University of Michigan point guard Spike Albrecht came off the bench during last night’s national title game to drop four three-pointers and score 17 points… in the first half! And even though his team lost to Louisville, the freshman’s confidence remained sky-high this morning, as he sent out a Tweet to the best looking fan in attendance at the Georgia Dome: Kate Upton! Does Albrecht actually have a shot at seeing Kate Upton nude ? The supermodel is a native of Michigan. And she has been rumored to have affection for both sports and teams from that state, with previous reports linking her to Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander . But Albrecht will need to duplicate his title game heroics numerous times next season to have a chance with this blonde bombshell. He only averaged 1.8 points per contest during the regular season and, while we admire his Twitter game today, Upton won’t be going for any athlete without some real game going forward.

Lil Wayne "Denied Entry" to Oklahoma City Thunder Game Due to "Lack of Ticket"

Memo to Lil Wayne: You need “tickets” to get into an “event.” If the tickets are sold out, then you usually can’t go. Sometimes there are exceptions, but usually not for a game that has already been sold out for weeks, and generally not for seats better than 99.9 percent of the people who bought them already. Lil Wayne learned this the hard way last night. Weezy felt like going to Thursday’s NBA playoff tilt between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the visiting San Antonio Spurs. The Thunder, with no seats to spare (least of all any courtside seats, which he insisted on sitting in), politely declined. Thunder spokesman Dan Mahoney says Lil Wayne’s reps did contact the team requesting tickets, but insisted he sit on the front row, and no seats were available. Oklahoma City sold out every game during the regular season and playoffs this year. Mahoney says: “We’d love to have him, but like anyone else, he needs a ticket.” Makes sense to us. But apparently not LW, who Tweeted this: That’s right, denied by the team, as if they were making some kind of statement. What a douche. Also, no way he was rooting for the Spurs last night. None.

Jesus Montero for Michael Pineda Trade Stuns Baseball: Who Won It?

The New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners shocked the baseball universe last night by completing a four-player trade centered around two of the most hyped young stars in baseball: Jesus Montero – who hit over .300 and blasted four home runs for the Yankees in 18 regular season games last year – was swapped for 22-year pitching phenom Michael Pineda, who finished 2011 with a 3.74 ERA and 173 strikeouts in 171 innings. The deal provides Seattle with an upgraded offense, and the Yankees with a solid number-two starter behind C.C. Sabathia. Considering the premium placed on young, cheap starting pitching, most experts agree the Yankees came out on top here. Remember the Hanley Ramirez-for-Josh Beckett deal between the Red Sox and Marlins, for example? Ramirez went on to become one of the top 10 hitters in baseball… yet Boston would do that swap all over again in a heartbeat. Who do you think got the best of the Yankees/Mariners trade?

Canucks Roster Hopefuls No Match For Sharks

Yeah, it would have been a real treat to see that Canucks squad beat the talent-laden Sharks . But this one ended pretty much as expected: a 3-0 Sharks win. Mr. Botchford was inking it as a battle between Cody Hodgson and Andrew Ebbett for the #2 center position when the regular season starts. But neither player really impressed. I don’t think Ebbett is really an option anyway. All eyes are on Hodgson,… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Nucks Misconduct Discovery Date : 30/09/2011 06:12 Number of articles : 2
