It might go down as the biggest upset in golf history. It is something that is just not supposed to happen, especially to Tiger Woods. Tiger was 14-0 when leading after the third round in majors and after leading the first three rounds in this major it seemed like the Championship was his. Then stepped in Y.E. Yang, who seemed not at all in awe of the moment or the fact that he was playing the world’s greatest player. Playing head-to-head Yang out shot Woods by five strokes on the day to turn a two stroke deficit to a three stroke win. It was pretty crazy to watch and I thought Tiger was going to be a for sure winner, but it just didn’t happen. With the loss Tiger goes 0-4 in majors this year, he won a lot of other tournaments this year, but I have a feeling that he will come out of the year disappointed. I mean it’s Tiger Woods.  He bases his game on majors not just total wins. But there is no need to feel sorry for Tiger because he’ll be back. After all this was his first season back from his knee injury. For Y.E. Yang it’s a big win and a dream come true. You always have to be happy for the underdog who wins against all odds.

In track and field, the World Championships were going on in Berlin. All eyes where on the Men’s 100 where raining “Fastest Man in the World” Usain Bolt was looking to defend his title and possibly break his record. This time though he would have to go through American champ Tyson Gay, who did not make it to the final in Beijing. This would be the first time that the two go at it and Gay said that he was primed to come out with the win. The hype for the race was as big as any and both racers where waiting at the start with their contrasting pre-race styles. Tyson was very serious and focused on the race at hand. Bolt on the other hand was carefree and joking around with the crowd and other competitors, a style that everyone has been used to since Beijing. It was then time for the race and it didn’t disappoint. Bolt flew to a world record of 9.58 making everyone else look slow including Gay who ran an American record and third fastest time ever of 9.71. Bolt is just in a totally different class from everyone else after slashing .11 from his world record time and I don’t see any one taking his crown anytime soon. After all he’s only 23-years-old. Next up for him is the 200 where he will again face Gay and try to take his World Championship title.

Fans of basketball may be locked in on the NBA playoffs, but for USA Basketball Director Jerry Colangelo, it is never too early to start thinking about the next Olympics. Word on the street is he plans for New York Knicks coach Mike D’Antoni to take over Team USA if Mike Krzyzewski decides not to come back.

Coach K, who guided the US to gold in Beijing last year after the 2004 squad brought home the bronze, has said his status as coach for the next Olympics is yet to be determined and that he would be comfortable coming back in a different role. Krzyzewski has publicly stated before that while he loved his experience on the international stage, it did take a lot out of him.

The US players thrived under the 62-year-old Krzyzewki, but the transition to D’Antoni would probably be smooth considering he served as an assistant during the team’s time in China and is widely regarded as a players coach. He also has strong relationships with many of the players that would be in contention for one of the 12 final roster spots, such as 2008 gold medalists Lebron James and Kobe Bryant.

D’Antoni seems to be a great fit — the players love him and he has coached overseas before — but I remain skeptical over the potential move. For one, I wonder how well his “seven seconds or less offense” would work at the Olympic level. I’m also curious how well he can command the respect of the NBA’s best players. It is one thing for a player to like a coach. It is something else for a player to accept (and embrace) criticism from one. Coaching a team with that much talent is as much about managing egos and touches as it is drawing up X’s and O’s.

What do you think? Do you want coach K to return? If he doesn’t, who would you like to see roaming the sidelines?

If you’re a follower of the show (don’t act like you’re not) Dancing with the Stars, then this shouldn’t be news to you. But for those of you who are not (or in denial), this should be news to you.

A man was arrested on the set after he jumped a fence, while armed with two pistols and duct tape.

Robert O’Ryan, 34, was arrested for trying to see Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson, who is 17 and a performer on the popular show.

O’Ryan said in police statements that he moved from Florida to California to be with Johnson and that they were meant to be together and have children. Hmm…sure buddy.

I once had an obsession for Jessica Rabbit. I went to the studio lot to find her, but they told me she wasn’t real. Even tried to find her agent, but had no luck. It’s OK, she’s just playing hard to get. I like that in a woman.

Jessica, if you’re reading this…nevermind. I don’t want to ruin the thrill of the chase. SEE YOU SOON!

Well, probably not, but I’m sure he’s not far behind.

So if you haven’t heard of Usain Bolt, let me introduce you to the fastest man in the world, who shattered both the 100m and 200m records at the Beijing Olympics. He’s also the man who unseated his fellow Jamaican teammate Asafa Powell from the fastest man title.

Now that Powell is no longer the fastest man, he can add a new title to his name: mechanic.

Not only does Powell own a line of luxury cars, but he’s also good at turning the wrench. And even lends a helping hand to fix up Bolt’s Honda Accord.

What I’m wondering is why is this man still driving a Honda Accord and making his teammate fix it up? A man like that should have a Bentley parked on every corner for all the money he’s probably raking in.

By now I’m sure you’ve been exposed in some way to the “bong rip heard around the world.”

By that I mean the photo of Michael Phelps’ impersonation of Cheech and Chong. His sponsors have stood by him through all the publicity and recently, authorities have chosen not to press charges against him.

But his fellow partiers weren’t so lucky, as eight have been arrested in connection to the party. And to top it off, the owner of the infamous utensil that Phelps was using, was none other than professional poker player Zachary “Carter” King. The card shark was caught when he tried to sell the device on ebay for $100,000.

King, who has more than $2 million in poker winnings, I bet wishes he never placed that ad on ebay now.

Smart move King. Stick to cards.

Well, apparently he was confident in his swimming abilities when he challenged Olympic gold medalist, Michael Phelps to a swimming race in a Florida pool. Of course, he needed a half a pool-length start. Oddly enough, it was still pretty close.

Check it out for yourself.

Oh, the tabloids. Who said they weren’t good for anything? Who said they couldn’t stimulate the brain?

Lets play a little game this morning. Page Six of The New York Post gave us some clues to a certain athlete who was a little self-destructive and had been experimenting with a little Mary Jane for the first time. Here’s what they had to say:

WHICH Olympic champion smoked pot for the first time recently at a Michigan hotel? The stoned athlete broke the TVs in his room, but later bought exact replicas so he could replace them before anybody at the hotel was the wiser . . .

Hmm…An Olympic champion who has the type of money to buy TVs on a moments notice…Hmm…Would be in Michigan for no apparent reason at all….Hmm…Experimenting for the first time because he MIGHT have spent his entire teenage years trying to wipe that chlorine smell off of him.

Hmm….Does anyone know if Kobe swims, cause I can’t figure this out.

But, did you see this interview featuring the Jamaican sprinter and his play-by-play of the race. He must have been moving pretty fast, because I didn’t see any of this happening.

And is it just me or does the other Jamaican runner look 12?

Anyways, thanks to Denny for sending this spoof video.
