Shaq Misses Entire Second Half With Pulled Pork Sandwhich – Cavaliers center Shaquille O’Neal suffered a frustrating setback during his team’s victory over the Toronto Raptors Tuesday night, when he was sidelined for the entire second half of the game with a pulled pork sandwich. O’Neal, who scored 12 points and grabbed three rebounds during the first half of the game, returned to the bench at the beginning of the third quarter, clutching at the pulled pork sandwich and informing trainers that it was incredibly tender. A member of the Cavaliers’ medical staff said that when he attempted to examine the pulled pork sandwich, O’Neal flinched away and grunted sharply.
Dusty Baker Has Already Destroyed Aroldis Chapman’s Arm – Within just a few minutes of Cuban pitcher Aroldis Chapman’s arrival in the United States, Reds manager Dusty Baker had already overused and mangled the 21-year-old’s arm beyond recognition, team sources reported Sunday. Baker, who has been accused of overtaxing young pitchers’ arms in the past, reportedly greeted Chapman with a bucket of 250 baseballs and told him to “hurl them” as fast as he could, later encouraging the fastballer to “go nuts” with his pitching style. “He didn’t even let me stretch out first,” Chapman said.

CBS Producers Make A Plea To Shannon Sharpe – In an effort to clear up the confusion caused by terminology such as “unconsistentical” and “splosiverance,” CBS producers made a formal request Monday that NFL Today commentator Shannon Sharpe use a minimum of three real words in each sentence. “We tried to convey to Mr. Sharpe that peppering in a few words that actually exist will help viewers understand what he’s talking about,” executive producer Sean McManus said. “Providing fans with some context is key for Shannon. It is much easier to comprehend what he means when he says, ‘Andre Johnson needimentally must keep advantagizing opportunimals this week.’”
