It’s not a World Cup without Columbia, Cocaine and Soccer

Apparently, this Associated Press photo of the World Cup trophy is actually a replica model made out of 11 kilograms of cocaine. It was confiscated over the weekend at a Columbian airport. All it really makes me want to do is watch that 30 for 30 episode “The Two Escobars” again. As you can see from [...]

Got you some Purple Drank in my cup, buddy

By now you’ve heard that former No. 1 overall NFL Draft pick JaMarcus Russell, who was cut this offseason by the Oakland Raiders, was arrested and charged with possession of codeine syrup at his home in Alabama. Something tells me there is much more to this story, but whatever. And for the record, I blame [...]

IS IT FOOTBALL SEASON YET?

It’s time to face the facts – your favorite baseball team sucks and you still don’t have a job – and this ever-present realization is why the beer hasn’t been tasting as good as it once did. Maybe we need some football. High school football, Arena Football, something. Got to shake it off. Get back [...]

I THINK I CAN BEAT MIKE TYSON (SECOND ROUND KO)

When it comes to Mike Tyson the train wreck is never bad enough to make you want to turn away. Except for maybe that time Lennox Lewis made him bleed from inside his eyelids back in 2002.

U.S. SOCCER NO STEPPING STONE FOR SPAIN

By – J.C. Hop on the bandwagon while seats are still available.

THE ONLY NBA FINALS COVERAGE YOU NEED (Game 5)

Foreword by – J.C. Carnahan The celebration began for the Los Angeles Lakers during a timeout with 40 seconds to go on Sunday night, but their 15th NBA title had already been wrapped up long before that though. It didn’t take much from there to make it official either, by way of a 99-86 Game 5 decision over [...]

THE ONLY NBA FINALS COVERAGE YOU NEED (Game 4)

Foreword by – J.C. Carnahan In the most recent episode of the NBA Finals on Thursday night the Orlando Magic and Los Angeles Lakers overcome a parade of whistles by an eager officiating crew at Amway Arena to actually make a game out of Game 4. The 99-91 win for L.A. gives the Lakers a firm 3-1 series lead and inches the franchise [...]

THE ONLY NBA FINALS COVERAGE YOU NEED (Game 3)

Foreword by – J.C. Carnahan Proving there is indeed a first time for everything, the Orlando Magic won their first NBA Finals game in seven tries on Tuesday night over the Los Angeles Lakers. That cuts the series lead to 2-1 for L.A. and improves Orlando’s futile mark in the Finals to 1-6 overall in this, their second trip. The [...]

THE ONLY NBA FINALS COVERAGE YOU NEED (Game 2)

Foreword by – J.C. Carnahan You would think that after the second-half blowout we sat through in Game 1 on Thursday night the Los Angeles Lakers and Orlando Magic would remember they’re in the NBA Finals and act accordingly. But instead we at Joint Contrast had to ride the edge of our sofas into overtime before finding out how the second [...]
