Mike Tyson: “I Hate My Accountant. He Won’t Give Me Any Money.”

Yesterday The New York Times posted an article about a Mike Tyson documentary called Tyson. Picking from thirty hours of exclusive interviews, director James Toback believes he has come up with the most insightful look at the rise and fall of the former knockout artist to date. Mike Tyson thinks he revealed too much.

Speaking to The New York Times, Tyson admitted that he is completely lost, “I don’t know who I am,” he said in an interview in his Las Vegas home, one of the few extensive interviews he’s given in the last few years. “That might sound stupid. I really have no idea. All my life I’ve been drinking and drugging and partying, and all of a sudden this comes to a stop.”

Paul Pierce Fined $25,000 for Flashing Piru Blood Gang Sign

Paul Pierce was fined $25,000 by the NBA for allegedly flashing a Piru Blood gang sign at the Atlanta Hawks center Al Horford. During a game 3 playoff loss on Saturday, Al Horford hit a big shot, after which he trash talked Paul Pierce. Apparently, Paul Pierce didn’t like his yapping.

A timeout was called after the shot was made. As Al Horford walked to his bench, Paul Pierce moved toward center court, making sure Horford could see him, and flashed a hand signal in the air.

Shaq Traded to the Phoenix Suns. Miami Heat Get Sunshine from Marion

The self-proclaimed Last Don of the NBA, Shaquille O’Neal was officially traded to the Phoenix Suns this afternoon in exchange for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks. Word had bubbled about the trade yesterday, but most people took it as a bad joke.

We’re not talking about 60 point unstoppable monster Shaq Daddy. This is, “Ow my back, my knee, my old man hip, give me a few weeks to get it together,” Shaq Daddy.

Brand spanking new president of operations Steve Kerr said, “We’re thrilled to add a player and person of Shaquille’s quality to our roster. We believe this addition strengthens our team. We thank Shawn and Marcus for their contributions to our team. Shawn in particular has been a tremendous player for this organization the past eight-and-a-half years and his impact both on and off the court in Phoenix will not be forgotten.”

Eli Manning - Giants Win the Superbowl

The NY Giants Win the Superbowl!

I don’t watch football or baseball, they’re both sports I only watch during the playoffs. So picking a favorite team usually comes down to a choice between the bandwagon or Davey waving his fists at Goliath.
Which to choose? The Giants made that choice easy: you always root for the home team when it’s crunch
time. What kind of New Yorker ever wanted Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls to beat the Knicks?
The Boston Red Sox and Yankee fans have a passionate hatred for each other that I don’t feel, but I want the Red Sox to lose every time they step foot in the Bronx.

The week before last night’s game, Tom Brady was all over New York, hopping on a bad ankle in one picture, skipping in the next, and smiling like America’s Next Top Model the entire time.
It was the Giant’s Plaxico Burress’ comment that the final score would be 23 -17 and Brady’s smug response.. We’re only gonna score 17 points?!? Ok.. Is Plax playing defense?  .. I wish he said like 45, 42, or something like that. At least he’d give us a little more credit for scoring a few points.”
