While some folks think Oklahoma City's ill-gotten basketball team is going to be renamed the Thundercats, I doubt it will be something so cool.  Keep in mind that Oklahomans are retarded.

A possible example of such retardery: the URL okcmarshalls.com redirects to NBA.com, while similar domains with other proposed team names (Bandits, Thunder, Thundercats) do not.  So the Seattle Sonics may very well now be the Oklahoma City Marshalls.  Yes, Marshalls.  With two L's. 

Now, I've never had the responsibility of naming a major professional sports franchise, but I'd like to think that if I did, I would run my proposed name THROUGH A GODDAM SPELL CHECK to make sure I had named the team after Wild West sheriffs and not a department store.  But that's just me.  I've got a weird habit of trying not to look like a complete dipshit.

Last night on WWE's RAW, Vince McMahon supposedly gave some money away before he was "injured" when part of the set "accidentally" fell on top of him.  The video's especially convincing.  Why, you'd have to have 20/20 vision, or maybe glasses, or possibly just both eyes to see him duck under the wall before the sign doesn't hit him at all.  It's so believable that fans in the arena — people who desperately WANT to believe that this is real — whistle and shout their disapproval.

Ridiculous, right?  Well, apparently KHOU in Houston reported this like it was a real event. 

WWE Chairman Vince McMahon was injured in a freak accident in San Antonio Monday night. Just moments after giving away $500,000 in “McMahon’s Million Dollar Mania,” McMahon was crushed by a large electric sign that fell from the AT&T Center.

The extent of his injuries was unclear, but he was rushed to the hospital. WrestleMania officials planned to update fans on McMahon’s condition at a press conference in Houston Tuesday.

Blog of Hilarity has a nice take on this from someone who once worked in PR for WWE, but I'm still not buying any of it.  KHOU.com has got be a fake website operated by WWE.  I don't want to live in a world where people are that stupid.  That's why I'm always trying to push for aggressive eugenics programs.  Well, it doesn't have to be eugenics, per se.  I'd settle for euthanasia.

Long before Jim Zorn was hired by the Redskins to shut the hell up and do whatever Dan Snyder asks, he was a better than mediocre quarterback on an atrocious Seahawks team.  This video from Seahawks training camp in 1981 reveals that the Redskins got themselves a born leader with a real fiery speaking style.   Also revealed: a whooooole lotta man-leg.  Yikes.  It's one thing to see Chris Cooley as the only guy on the field wearing a pair of nuthuggers as a joke.  It's another thing entirely to see more thighs and helmets than a Viking sex boat.

And yet, this 27-year-old clip of Seattle's football team practicing is still way more interesting than a Mariners game.  Eat a dick, M's front office.

Meet Eagles cheerleader Christina Fuller, pictured here twice because I didn't really feel like once was enough. Alas, cheerleading fans, she's spoken for.

Congrats to ESPN NBA Analyst Tim Legler and Eagles Cheerleader Christina Fuller, who were engaged recently.

Legler, 40, a former La Salle basketball star who spent 10 years in the NBA, and Fuller, 28, have been dating for a little more than a year… Fuller, who runs an online pet supply company, Shop4Paws.com, is also a La Salle grad, and the couple went to a La Salle basketball game on their first date.

No word on if Legler used the groping skills he learned at ESPN to pick up Christina, but congratulations. I guess. Dick.

Seriously, there should be some kind of rule where cheerleaders have to retire when they get married. It just ruins the fantasy. Especially when ESPN gets involved. Nothing kills a boner like an ESPN talking head. (And Erin Andrews is the exception that proves the rule.)
