NFL player dead at 25!



O.J. Murdock, a player for the Tennessee Titans, was found by Tampa police today at 830am in his car in front of Middleton High School- where he once went to school. He died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound 2 hours later at Tampa General Hospital.

O.J. was signed last year to the Titans as an undrafted player, but never played in a game due to an Achilles injury.

It's sad that whatever he was going through made him feel like he had to take his life. Our condolences go out to O.J.'s family & friends.

*The NFL is launching a help line for current and former players.

The Buzz

Click for more photos of Lolo Jones

Olympic hurdler, 29 year old Lolo Jones, has been
getting a lot of press as of late not only for her skills
on the track but for being a virgin. The bi-racial beauty
confessed to being a virgin and has been a topic
of conversation ever since. She says that she is
waiting until she gets married, which I find very
commendable. But why is virginity such "news"?
Could it be because today's society revolves
so much around sex that it is unfathomable
that their are women who are not doing it by choice.
In any case she admits that she is not dating
because most men are just looking to hook up and
are not interested in waiting.

Interesting....
I'm sure there are plenty of players licking their
chops and making plans to conquer! LOL poor
Lolo, she is officially a target. Stick to your
guns girl, we are routing for ya!

Good Riddins!!

Greek track athlete has been booted from the 2012 Olympic games in London for sending prejudicial/racist tweet!

Voula Papachristou

What do ya'll think about this? Read below and weigh in - because there is a lot of debate about whether or not she should have been ousted. I have no words....

Her tweet on Monday read,  "with so many Africans in Greece, at least the West Nile mosquitos will be eating food from their own home."

On Wednesday she issued the below apology:

I would like to express my heartfelt apologies for the unfortunate and tasteless joke I published on my personal Twitter account. I am very sorry and ashamed for the negative responses I triggered, since I never wanted to offend anyone, or to encroach human rights.
My dream is connected to the Olympic Games and I could not possibly participate if I did not respect their values. Therefore, I could never believe in discrimination between human beings and races.
I would like to apologize to all my friends and fellow athletes, who I may have insulted or shamed, the National Team, as well as the people and companies who support my athletic career. Finally, I would like to apologize to my coach and my family.



Bolt is Back!!!



Track & Field fans, Mr. Usain Bolt is set and ready to compete in the 2012 Olympics. He confirmed in a recent interview with the English Press that he indeed had a back injury and aggravated hamstring but is back to normal now. People have been speculating since he lost twice in the trials: in the 100-meter and then in the 200-meter to his fellow teammate (Yohan Blake).

Usain will also be Jamaica's flag bearer tomorrow for the Opening Ceremony. He says,
“My aim now is to become a legend, and that’s what I’m working towards.” The world's eyes will be on him and the rest of the Jamaican Olympic Track & Field team as they are the country to beat! Check your local listings and tune in for the men's 100 meter on Aug. 5th and the 200 meter on Aug. 9th.

No matter the outcome at next month's Olympics, Mr. Bolt will always be a Champion in my eyes!





Awesome Abs!

Wow Pilar's body is RIDICULOUS! After 3 kids, this 38 year old has abs to die for! I'm so jealous, these pics are going to be my personal inspiration to get back into shape. Ladies take note! (Pilar I would definitely buy your workout plan.)

In other Pilar news: Deion Sanders has been ordered to pay $10,500 monthly in child support and $275,000 for his now ex-wife's legal fees. Even though there are no winners in divorce, I must say Pilar did pretty well. Now I hope they can both move on with their lives and stop with all the drama.
