F*ck This Guy: Mark Buehrle And Wife “Hoped Michael Vick Got Hurt” This Season

What part of the game is THIS??? We know some people are never going to forgive Mike Vick, but you wanna wish evil on him…COTdamn! Mark Buehrle, a Chicago White Sox pitcher and animal rights activist, does not believe Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has been fully punished for his felony conviction for bankrolling and partaking in a dogfighting ring in 2007. “He had a great year and a great comeback, but there were times where we watched the game, and I know it’s bad to say, but there were times where we hope he gets hurt,” Buehrle told MLB.com in a recent interview. “Everything you’ve done to these dogs, something bad needs to happen to these guys.” The story, which was published on Wednesday, centered around the animal rights work Buehrle does with wife Jamie. Sometime after being posted, the comments were edited out of the text and a note was attached: “This story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs.” The writer, Scott Merkin, also posted the quotes on his Twitter account, but the tweets were later deleted. We hope something happens to you too, f*ck-boy… Source

Chris Brown Wants Rihanna Restraining Order Lifted

Chris Brown is looking to get the restraining order against him lifted. It’s been in place since he pummeled Rihanna senseless prior to the 2009 Grammys. His lawyer, Mark Geragos, told Judge Patricia Schnegg that Brown did 52 weeks of domestic violence counseling and requested that the order be lifted . “It makes it difficult at award shows and such,” Geragos said. GOOD DAYS : Now other guys take and leak Rihanna topless pics . Shame . Judge Schnegg did not immediately grant his request but did suggest a modification of it, pending the approval of Rihanna’s attorney, David Etra. The decision to modify the restraining order will be filed in court at a later date. The judge did praise Brown again for his commitment, however. In fact, she was so pleased, she told Brown that he can come in “next time you’re in town” instead of scheduling a future progress report hearing. To date, Brown has done 581 hours of community labor and domestic violence counseling. Aside from the occasional Raz B feud , he’s been great. He remains on probation through mid-2014.

Schwarzenneger’s Post-Governor Plan: Fight Climate Change

Photo: the Guardian Arnold Schwarzenegger will not likely be remembered as California’s most beloved governor — he’s leaving office with his approval rating in the 20 percent range. But history may be kinder to his legacy on climate — addressing global warming eventually became his trademark issue with the passage of the state’s solid climate law AB 32, that requires California to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. Defending the law from Texas oil companies, who attempted to shut it down w… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Joe Scarborough Likes Pelosi’s Feisty Response to His MSNBC Colleague, Mimics Her Punching Him

Joe Scarborough apparently likes Nancy Pelosi's toughness, given her response to his MSNBC colleague pressing her as to why she would make a good House Minority Leader after losing 60 seats. MSNBC's Luke Russert asked the Speaker why she should lead the House Democrats if her approval rating among independents is at 8 percent. Pelosi delivered a testy response, and Scarborough admitted his glee over the tone. “I think she's a disaster for the Democrats politically right now…but I like that fight,” he remarked. “C'mon, boom!” he expressed as he threw imaginary punches, pretending to be Pelosi punching down Russert. “Hey Luke, come here, Luke, look, boom! Luke, look, look, boom!” Later on Thursday's “Morning Joe,” Scarborough was pressed by Times columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin as to why he was praising such a polarizing figure when he has promoted a platform of bipartisanship and moderate politics. The “Morning Joe” co-host has conducted multiple campaigns on his own show for calmer rhetoric in the country's political sphere and has denounced political extremism.

Dear Gamers: Please See My Movie. Love, Jake Gyllenhaal

And this is what it has come to apparently. While promoting Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time , star Jake Gyllenhaal has taken to begging for the approval of the finicky gamer audience to see his new, video game-based, movie. Because the only thing that can sink the box office potential of a movie faster than negative reviews is negative reviews from a niche audience of demographically friendly fans who will see the movie anyway. You tell ’em, Jake!
