KC Chiefs "stand" to make golf more entertaining...

I like football. I like the Cowboys (I'm from Texas, what do you expect?). I think that football brings out a very animalistic side. The games get you excited in a way that very few sports can. This is one of the reasons I like seeing games. I yell, I get mad, I get excited; it's awesome.

But now I read that the KC Chiefs have added a rule to their "Code of Conduct" that to me, is very ridiculous. For those of you that don't know, the Chiefs are an NFL football team that apparently play in an old folk's home. They have a list of rules that they expect their fans to comply with. These rules are meant to keep things orderly and not fun. It's working.

The new thing is a rule that prohibits "standing" at games as to not obstruct the view from other fans. Look...it's a "cute" idea but COME ON, THIS IS FOOTBALL! This isn't a sport about manners, if it was, the players would high-five each other, not tackle themselves. F(@#! I mean really???? Why would a team try to censor an experience that is meant to be RAW!

And if that isn't bad enough, they are giving their fans the opportunity to TATTLE on each other by giving them text message capabilities on game day. OH COME ON! Dude, if I wanted to see a quieter sport, I would check out golf (no offense, I like golf too, but let's face it--it IS quieter). What kind of a lame game are the fans supposed to expect?

"Reginald I do believe I see someone smiling? Is that allowed? I don't believe it is...I'm going to TEXT someone to tell that man to stop! The nerve of someone smiling at the game. (pause) This tea is delicious by the way!"

KC Chiefs, you need to lighten up and let your fans be like ANY other NFL fan....you know, like "fun" fans, the kind that like to have fun?!

Mencia Minute: Tiger Woods, We Get It, You're Awesome!

So here's something that a lot of people probably didn't know: Mencia likes to golf. Of course, the guy's rich so of course he likes to golf. I feel like when you hit a certain tax bracket, they automatically give you golf clubs. There aren't too many poor people driving around in golf carts (unless that's the family car).

I've (<-- Cristela) have decided that I want to golf myself...though mine is the miniature kind. I've decided that I can't move onto "real" golf if I can't pass the windmill or the Wii game, take your pick.

Anyhoo, when we're on the road, since I'm the only girl, I have to watch the sports the guys do, which includes golf. It's amazing at how the guys can get into ANY sport ("WTF! Come on man, this is cricket! Step it up!") So here is the latest Mencia minute in which he describes his feelings about "Sunday Red" Tiger Woods. As you can see, it upsets Mencia so much, that he has to lie down.

Lakers and Celtics: Loving the Right Team in the Wrong City...

This is Cristela and I have to admit: I should've been born in Boston. It's one of my favorite cities in the world. I love the sense of history it has. The hipness of the nightlife. The bars are great...and most importantly...Larry Bird, Larry Bird, Larry Bird.

I like sports. I watch football with my boyfriend (Go Cowboys-what do you expect? I'm from Texas) but since Romo choked and I blame Jessica Simpson, we are now in full basketball mode because it's the finals. Here's the catch though. I live in LA. The Lakers are in the finals which really annoys me because everywhere I go, people are trying to sell Lakers stuff. Everywhere I go, I feel like I get stuck in the middle in the sea of purple and yellow which would be great except for ONE thing: I'm going for the Celtics.

When I say that, people look at me like I just told them I killed a puppy. I love the Celtics. I'm the kind of person that likes a team through thick and thin. The Celtics hold a special place in my heart because Larry Bird is my favorite basketball player of all time. I know a lot of people wouldn't agree but there's something very cool about the Bird.

So I'm currently going through what I think is a tough time in sports. Cheering against the home team is crazy dangerous (NEVER do this with the Oakland Raiders-the fans will cut you). You get booed and yelled at. People treat you like a leper (no offense to lepers).

Last night I watched the game while recording the Tony's on CBS as well (quite a difference I know, but that's how I roll). I was going to change the channel to the Tony's when I figured that the Celtics had it made...then I saw the steal that Kobe-Wan-Kenobi made and thought, "Damn, that was a foul!" But it wasn't called. It made me annoyed. But it made me excited because I figured what's the difference. There's one more game...and IT'S IN BEANTOWN BABY!

Let the Celtics win at home...even better.

I guess my point is, people of LA, let me like the Celtics...don't spit on me when I wear my Celtics t-shirt....it's just a shirt that has Bird's number on the back. Oh and by the way, you should see if you can catch footage of Patti Lupone's performance at the Tony's last night. She sang THE PINNACLE song of Gypsy. It was amazing! Go Celtics...and Gypsy!
