Point Shots

~ Daunte Culpepper and three Minnesota Vikings teammates were charged Thursday with indecent, lewd and disorderly conduct for there alleged involvement with the sex boat fiasco. Each are up on 3 separate counts that carry a maximum 90 in prison on each count if convicted. This whole incident brought a new meaning to “tam bonding”. It is almost too bad that these players are now in trouble with the law as the Vikings are in the midst of at the very least a playoff push, something unthought of after the awful 1-4 start to the season. Maybe the Pittsburgh Penguins or St’ Lewis Blues should try something similar.

~ Tim Montgomery has announced that he plans to retire from sprinting. Probably a fairly easy decision to make after being suspended for 2 years, plus the fact that he is over 30. In his defense he never did actually test positive for doping, which sets a bad standard that you can be basicly convicted on circumstantial evidence and no hard proof. But when Track deems you a cheater they have no trouble dropping the hammer. Also in related news Montgomery said he and three-time Olympic gold medallist Marion Jones have split. up... when it rains it pours for Timmy.

~ Sao Paulo goalie Rogerio Ceni is the penalty and free kick specialist for his club team. If a free kick is awarded the goalie marches up the field to take the kick. That is like sending Martin Brodour out in a shootout.two questions: How bad is the team that a goalie is your best sniper and if he is so good why is he stuck in the net? The Guy must need too many oranges if he runs around too much and it would bankrupt the team in produce costs, Just another reason why soccer is stupid.
