Reggie Evans of the Denver Nuggets was fined $10,000 for Saturday’s playoff game in which he reached between the legs of Clipper Chris Kaman and grabbed his genitals and yanked. He was not suspended. How crazy is that?? This is one reason I love basketball. The fact that players will actually do something like this. And they are betting on the fact that the refs won’t see it happen. You would expect something like this in football. It’s full contact. Smashmouth. And of course, hockey is famous for it. They even have dedicated penalties for stuff like that. Hockey even has a box for it. But basketball just has fouls. And there’s unsportsmanlike conduct call. The worst you could get is a technical. I suppose you could get ejected. But he wasn’t. I wonder if he’ll try the old yank move again the series. Hell, it worked once, right?
In other news, on the way to work today I saw an ad for ‘Porky’s BBQ’ and it has a cartoon pig holding up some meat(obviously of himself or someone quite like him) and it says, “We’ve got the butt!” Ummm… gross. I mean, sure, I know it’s butt meat but should we really call attention to it? It is something worth advertising? Personally, I feel we should just eat it but not really think about what it is we’re eating. Like with a hot dog, say. Or hagis. Or Rocky Mountain Oysters. Do places in Colorado have ads that say, “We’ve got the testicles!”? They might. It’s worth investigating…
I’m pretty sure “Pork Butt” actually comes from the shoulder of the animal… the part equivalent to a human butt is “Ham”
