LaVar Arrington Says Big Ben Drank Water At Jim Kelly Golf Classic Party [Photos]

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 09:33 AM PDT

We’re still efforting more photos from the Jim Kelly Golf Classic, which was held over the weekend. Early returns include Big Ben behind Bill Goldberg, Darryl Talley about to get a pull off Goldberg’s bottle of Crown Royal and Chris Berman taking the stage but not drunk. Someone out there needs to open the trove of embarrassing pics. They’re out there, people. C’mon all you former Buffalo cheerleaders who were in attendance.

We know you were there. Email us.

mail@bustedcoverage.com

While the rest of the media dorks in attendance for the Kelly Classic were clamoring for quotes about the NFL lockout, Busted Coverage went searching for the unique. Who’s up for Dan Marino and a bunch of Buffalo housewives?

As always with the Kelly Classic, the real action of the weekend is Sunday night for the annual boozefest that included Mr. Belding and Chris Berman. You might remember Berman’s antics at this party in the past, such as this drunken night back in 2007.

From all indications and tweet reports, it seems Berman was under control Sunday.

The highlight of the night, reports LaVar Arrington, was the fact that Ben Roethlisberger wasn’t drinking or raping Buffalo women.

LaVar wrote this about the party for the Washington Post:

I have to tell you: I've met him before and felt as though he was a pretty arrogant guy, but last evening my perception of him totally changed.

Ben was pleasant and I found him to be very down to earth, in an environment where men and women were were falling all over him for his attention. I'm not trying to justify the allegations against him, but I clearly saw how he could find himself in a sticky wicket of a situation. He was chased the entire evening.

He not only maintained being an easy person to walk up to and talk with, but in a party where granny's cough medicine was taking effect on everyone in the room, he walked around with his bottle of water the entire night.

Again, we encourage the Jersey Chasers within BC Nation to email us and preferably have photos ready to publish. Big Ben carrying water all night? Is he pregnant? What a loser.

30 Greatest Anna Kournikova Photos Of All Time For Her 30th Birthday

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 08:21 AM PDT

There are benchmarks to know you are getting old and one of those is to stop and realize that Anna Kournikova (allegedly) turns 30 today. Like Cuban left-handed pitchers, who really knows how old these Russian athletes are. We’ll play along and say Anna is 30 because it’s kinda a slow sports day and you guys are going to go totally nuts over this look back at Ms. Kournikova’s career in photos. There are a few wild cards in this bunch so look closely. A few you’ve probably never seen before. Enjoy and try not to feel old and creepy.

Former 1st Rounder Dewon Brazelton Busted Up His Fiancee [Cuff 'Em]

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 06:38 AM PDT

Normally a story about former Rays #1 draft pick Dewon Brazelton being arrested for busting up his fiancee and going to jail on domestic violence charges wouldn’t be worthy enough of Cuff ‘Em. But, it just happens to be MLB Draft Week. This should serve as a lesson to all you draftees who think you’ll be rich, nice to your baby mamma and an upstanding citizen.

According to the St. Pete Times:

Former Rays pitcher Dewon Brazelton was arrested and charged with hitting his fiancee during an argument at International Plaza on Friday, police said.

Brazelton, 30, of St. Petersburg was charged with battery domestic violence and arrested at 11:52 p.m. Friday, jail records show. A witness told police the couple got into an argument and he hit her in the head as she pushed away from him. The woman, who was not identified, has been living with Brazelton for six years and the two are engaged, the police report said.

Brazelton was Tampa Bay’s first-round draft pick in 2001 and the third pick overall. He pitched for the team from 2002-05, going 8-23 with a 5.98 ERA. He finished his big-league career with the Padres in 2006, going 0-2, 12.00 in nine appearances.

We’re not sure what is more embarrassing: (A.) hitting a woman (B.) she’s been living with Dewon for six years & is still with him (C.) he won 8 games in the majors, or (D.) dude got biggest pitcher signing bonus in history of game (since surpassed) $4.2 million in 2001.

Your call.

Comcast New England Alex Burrows Biting Stat Line [Morning Twitpic]

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 04:39 AM PDT

We didn’t think it was that big of a deal to deep six the Morning Twitpic feature since the advent of our Burnt Toast series, but the emails poured in last week. “Dude, is Morning Twitpic gone forever. Woke up everyday at 10 to see what was up,” said Steve in Nashville. That was the kindest email. You guys have spoken. It’s back and we get moving with last night in Boston where Comcast gave Canucks finger biter Alex Burrows the following stat line.

Have an image of a drunken athlete, coach, head trainer, etc. that we need to publish? Mail it in!

Plaxico Burress Isn’t Nelson Mandela, Dirty Weiner & Charissa Thompson [Burnt Toast]

Posted: 07 Jun 2011 04:10 AM PDT


Burnt Toast

The Greatest Tweets in the History of the Internet* (*In the last 24 hours)

Plaxico Burress released from Jail

@CSNPhilly: Former #Giants star Plaxico Burress left prison wearing a #Phillies hat today

21 Months. That’s a hell of a long time to be locked up, especially for a crime that many felt was not deserving of the sentence handed down. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong fumble. How much do you read into Plaxico rolling out with a Phillies cap? Who knows, but I’d put a shiny nickel or two that Drew Rosenhaus had something to do about it.

@DaveMasonBOL: BetOnline.com’s odds on Plaxico signing: Eagles (+225), Jets (+350), Bears (+450)

Vick + Plax: Redemption Tour . Rex Ryan + Plax: Hard Knocks repeat? Cutler + Plax: Finally a weapon for Jay. My dark horse, the Patriots. Brady commands respect, and if Plaxico can get into shape, the Pats are in need of a deep threat.

PlaxReax

Dear Athletes, stop congratulating Plaxico Burress for getting out of prison. He’s not Nelson Mandela.

Over 200 RT’s, 30+ fiery emails  , and 1 kind offer to fellate a Tweeter, it’s clear that the above tweet I made yesterday touched a nerve.

I’ll share of the better replies:

@FrankyBearden5 & @DizzyWayne : STFU

@Littles82: Hey Go F*ck Yourself

@Big_Jamaal: #ShutYoAssUp

And my favorite:

@StacyAdams10: suck my D*ck!

On second thought, perhaps my tweet was a little harsh. We should all take the time out of day and congratulate Plaxico Burress. In fact, we should attempt to turn today into Plaxico Burress Day! Congratulations for finishing your prison sentence! No attempted escapes!

While the offer is quite flattering Mr. Adams, I think I’ll pass. Plaxico Burress broke the law, Plaxico Burress paid dearly. Those that feel sorry for Plaxico might be more delusional than Mr. Burress himself that Friday night back in 2008.

NCAA Vacates USC’s 2004-2005 BCS Title

@jppalm: BCS officially vacates USC’s 2004 title.

Classic. The Trojans of the University of Southern California now has as many BCS Championships as the Vandals of Idaho.

@Scottenyeart: Former USC fullback Brandon Hancock: “if the NCAA tried to take my champ. ring they’d have its imprint in their forehead

Well hell, now I want to see this happen. I would like to see them go after Reggie Bush’s ring, but I’m sure Ray J hocked that at a pawn shop years ago.

@MarkNagi: Does the BCS ruling about USC mean the Ashlee Simpson halftime show never happened? I hope so.

If you don’t remember, please take time out of your day to enjoy. It’s incredibly full of win…..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUvYBX6dm_U

WEINERGATEAPOOLAZAFEST!!!!

@TheBigLead: Now Weiner is crying. He admits to engaging in dirty banter w/ 6 women online over the last 3 years! Dirty Weiner. This is great, great TV.

Agreed. Weiner’s Press Conference > Kobe’s Press Conference > Tiger’s Press Conference. Again, another case where the cover-up made the crime exponentially worse. If wives had their husband’s password to Twitter and Facebook, the divorce rate in America would probably be about 80%.

@RussBengtson: This ends Anthony Weiner’s dream of being president of the Knicks, I guess.

True, but he’ll have a consulting job with the Knicks by the end of the week.

@ThatSean: President Bill Clinton is like, “Whew, I’m glad this social media was not around for me!” #weiner

If not Twitter, Slick Willie would have totally had an account at AshleyMadison.com. Screenname: Razorback6969

Porn Star Kianna Dior Busts Out Of Her Vancouver Canucks Bikini [8 Photos]

Posted: 06 Jun 2011 07:20 PM PDT

Somehow during the Stanley Cup tonight we happened upon a tweet from an Asian chick who uses the stage name Kianna Dior for her silver screen and pole dancing work. Come on #Canucks get it back!!! #bigboobs #NHL #bringithome . Of course we were searching #NHL on Twitpic and came across this intermission fun.

Not sure what it is about women from Vancouver? Everyone remembers Erin Hawksworth, right? No? Please observe this.

Your move, Boston.

Here Is Charles Barkley Attacking Dessert Aisle At Pathmark Grocery [Photos]

Posted: 06 Jun 2011 05:04 PM PDT

Just got back to Ohio from a Pa.-NYC trip and for some reason we have photos of Charles Barkley in late May at a Philly-area Pathmark grocery store in our inbox. Ok, we’ll play. Not sure why it’s funny to see a NBA 50 Greatest All-Timer pushing a grocery cart around a supermarket, but a famous guy preparing to attack the dessert aisle resonates with us. We want to see Chuck fill that cart with Oreo cheesecake. Maybe throw on one of those giant tubs of ice cream that he can just leave the fork in.

Says tweeter Roy Hanks about crossing paths with the Round Mound of Rebound:

This dude is so cool. I didn’t I was almost as tall as him ( with flip flops on)

There you go, kids, a lesson tonight. If you are in Philly, make sure you visit a Pathmark this summer when the NBA ends and Barkley will be back to munchie runs. Look for cookie crumb trails.
