It's a real sad day at Admiral Snuggles headquarters now, Shaq retired. However, that's not the worst part. Apparently, Shaq went into space to announce his retirement by spiking basketballs into the moon and got lost in orbit.

and just for fun the Admirals's tribute to the 2004 AFC Championship game.

So NBA JAM came out yesterday for the Wii. It's just as awesome as you think it is,except for one thing. It's on the fucking Wii and we all know the Wii sucks. Luckily, they're releasing HD versions for the Xbox 360 and PS3 that are supposed to be out before Christmas. So i'd recommend getting this, then getting one for each the Xbox 360 and the PS3 because you can never have enough Jam.

Forget having to collect Wheaties boxes with you're favorite athletes on them. They just have their own cereals now. Chad Ochocinco seems like the Shaq of the NFL because he seems to focus on everything but playing football. However, make no mistake he is nowhere near as cool as Shaq. Anyway, if you couldn't already tell, Chad's latest endeavor is his own cereal.

Via Sports Business Digest by way of PLBSports:

"Chad is a great personality, and with his involvement in social media and his interaction with the fans, he was an athlete that we were very excited to work with," said PLB Sports President Ty Ballou. "One way or another, America has learned and is continuing to learn more about Chad Ochocinco off the field, and they're finding out how great he is. Who wouldn't want to share a breakfast table with him?"

Unfortunately, the cereal is only going to be available in the Newport, Kentucky area, but luckily through the magic of the internet you should be able to buy a box online.

I like cereal.

......Dammit. Do you think this kid's teammates beat him up after they saw this?

Andy Marte is the greatest of all time. It is believed by some that Marte is the reincarnation of both Babe Ruth and Willie Mays (despite Mays not being dead). There are many questions surrounding Marte's birth and when he was conceived but a more accurate question would be "When was he conceived of by man'?". Mankind has had Gods throughout history to help explain away things that can't be understood or that appear to be miraculous. So with that being said, is Marte a physical reality or is he myth conceived by man?

He is in fact real, birthed on the sands of ancient Greece as a half-God, half man hybrid. Andy Marte A.K.A "Noodles" was first introduced to baseball at the tender age of zero years old. Many men died at this particular exchange of base and ball and Marte's pure power was realized. Marte soon began is rapid climb into the MLB. Marte was traded to the Cleveland Indians from the Boston Red Sox due to the Red Sox's fear of his overwhelming power and him embarassing the other players because of his pure skill. Marte soon began his streak of consecutive MVP winning seasons starting with his career high 5 home runs in 2006. He continued his winning ways by slugging 3 long bombs in 2008 with a batting average of 1 million. Marte is currently unmarried, because no women can handle is "seed".


Haha, Marte sucks.

Growing up in the late 80's and early 90's in northeast Ohio gave me the opportunity to watch a very special and amazing Cleveland Indians baseball team. The Indians will always be my favorite team no matter what, but in the 90s the Indians were really something special.

In the 90's the Indians had one of the most loaded offenses I have ever seen with players like Albert Belle, Jim Thome, Omar Vizquel, Manny Ramirez, Sandy Alomar, Roberto Alomar, David Justice, Matt Williams, Carlos Baerga, and Richie Sexson. But there was one player that was really special to me and was the guy who always got things started.

That player was Kenny Lofton.




Kenny Lofton was the leadoff hitter and center fielder for the Indians for most of his career. Lofton is one of the greatest leadoff hitters who ever lived. He was a six-time all-star, five-time American League leader in stolen bases, and four-time Gold Glove winner.

Lofton did not get picked up by a team for the 2008 season and retired.

On August 7th, 2010 Kenny was inducted into the Cleveland Indians Hall of Fame during a home game against the Twins.

Sorry for the poor pictures, but in my defense this isn't the most photogenic bobblehead I've ever worked with. As you can see the bobblehead is modeled after the amazing "catch" now known as simply "The Catch". "The Catch" took place on an 1996 home game against the Orioles.Orioles hitter B.J Surhoff crushed a ball to deep center field where Kenny Lofton jumped and got his glove over the center field wall catching the ball and robbing B.J Surhoff of a possible game winning home run. I had the privilege of watching this game live and almost peeing my pants.

Like I said before,the bobblehead is supposed to be Kenny Lofton reaching over the wall, so from the front you only get a glimpse of bobblehead Kenny peaking over the wall but if you flip it around you can only see Kenny's back. So basically I'm not quite sure how to display this bobblehead and I can already guess most people I show the bobblehead to aren't going to know what it's deal is. But it's okay, I love free stuff.

Here's some pictures of the box it came in!!



I love you Kenny Lofton Bobblehead.
