Two of the more fascinating plays in the Hall of Fame Game last night involved Tennessee-Titan-in-Houston-Oiler-clothing punter AJ Trapasso, who took a safety to end the game and give Tennessee a useless 21-18 win over the Buffalo Bills. But the best play of the night had to be Trapasso’s fake punt/fake punt fake/run on the Titans’ opening drive, which he took 40 yards for the game’s first touchdown. No wonder LenDale White lost all that weight in the offseason. Having a white punter taking your roster spot can’t be good for street cred.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young watched a 35-year-old white guy take his team to the playoffs without him last year, but it turns out that VY has a bit of history when it comes to watching amazing things happen. Esquire got a hold of the former Texas Longhorn and asked him about growing up with a mother strung out on crack:

There was a hole in the door that closed off my room from the living room. I used to always — my little bad self — peek through that little hole and see my mom and the whole neighborhood. My grandmom worked the graveyard shift, and everybody knew that after she left and the kids were in bed, the party was at our house. Every night. Smoking, dancing, having sex, and there I was, couldn’t sleep for the noise, looking through that little hole at a strange world, man. People so strung out that they’re stuttering, a-a-a-a-a-a. I didn’t know what strung out was, but I knew they were strung out. via.

No wonder Vince turned out so well. It must have been nice not having a mom that told him to do his homework or sit up straight all the time. Hey, look, mom’s passed out on the floor! Time for ice cream! Can we eat it with our shirts off this time? No? Eh, maybe someday I’ll get to do that…

Loyal reader and noted sex machine Brad was good enough to forward us these pics of Sahel Kazemi. Some of these you’ve seen before, but a lot of these are new, and we’re pretty sure these are all images of the 20-year-old woman that was dating Steve McNair before both parties’ tragic demise.

UPDATE: More pics of Kazemi here.

Here are a few more odds and ends regarding the Steve McNair-Sahel Kazemi in the wake of the murder-suicide ruling by Nashville police. This might be review for some of you, but it should bring everyone else up to speed:

• Deuce of Davenport found video of Kazemi’s DUI arrest on July 2; Fanhouse has audio of the 911 call. It’s about what you’d expect. The DUI vid is grainy as hell and the 911 call will haunt your dreams, though I did appreciate the colloquial greeting, “What’s up, man? It’s 911.”
• The Titans allowed grieving McNair fans to visit LP field, opening up the stadium where McNair played the bulk of his 13 seasons in the NFL. About 4,000 fans visited to pay tribute, some reportedly driving from 10 hours away to sign albums and watch video tributes of the former Alcorn State star.



• Kazemi reportedly bought the gun from a private individual outside of a Dave & Busters, which is significant, as such a sale would be harder to prosecute than, say, a sale from an established gun dealer. Kazemi reportedly bought the gun WZTV reports that Kazemi, who was only 20, would not have been old enough to buy a handgun from such a dealer. Kazemi’s gun purchase might have been the biggest component in the murder-suicide ruling, especially in the absence of any clear motive.
• McNair had been working with the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities to produce an anti-suicide PSA for TV, according to FanIQ. The ad was still in the editing phase when Kazemi killed McNair and then herself. A spokesperson for the agency said that the ad will not be brought to air, which is probably good, since it seems that McNair did not possess much influence in that specific area to begin with.
• McNair was a warrior. Of course he was.
• Oh, and A Pakistan News has pictures of Kazemi with all of the watermarks smeared out.

In conclusion, cheating on your wife is bad. Not just “Oh, I wanted to wear that blue shirt to work but it’s dirty” bad. Like…really, really bad. But if you really have to cheat on your wife, um, I guess if it’s like an emergency or something, don’t sleep on the couch. It’s bad for back, anyway. Especially when someone puts a couple of bullets in it.

UPDATE:TotalProSports comes through with actual restuarant-quality video. And apparently it’s a week old. Meh. Either way, turn your sound down before playing…

TMZ dug up this video of Vince Young dropping cash off the stage at a Nelly concert in Houston. Nelly’s still alive? We’ll never know for sure, since TMZ seems perfectly fine with shooting video of people’s backs without showing their faces. Great work, TMZ. Can’t wait until next week when we get video of Mark Ruffalo’s colonoscopy. How do we know it’s Mark Ruffalo? Because TMZ said so! Eh, they’re still more reliable than CBS News.

Before Kenny Perry choked away the Masters lead on Sunday, he was the obvious crowd favorite at Augusta, probably because the crowd didn’t like how the other top three finishers were Japanese, chubby, or some kind of Spanish.  And, judging by the lingering shots of Perry’s attractive family, CBS also appreciated Perry for stepping up when Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson failed to contend for the green jacket.  Stepping up with a hot family, that is.

As World of Isaac delightfully pointed out, Perry’s elder daughter Lesslye is a cheerleader for the Tennessee Titans, which awesomely makes this a post about golf AND football AND cheerleaders.  Some info on Lesslye:

Status: Married
Pets: Dogs-Roxie and Reesie
Favorite Movie: Breakfast at Tiffany’s [She loves Mickey Rooney's Asian accent -Ed.]
Favorite Scent: Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbanna

Oh, so her favorite scent isn’t ether?  Pity.  Well, I guess that’s for the best.  A girl named “Lesslye” isn’t a good match for me anyway.  I’m all about using more lye.
