Zubaz are back! by Corbet

Seriously, with hipsters rocking fanny packs, wolf t-shirts, skinny jeans and frogskins, it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if I see a hipster bike past me this spring on a 10 speed rocking some Zubaz. Believe it… one of the late ’80s – early ’90s most reviled fashion fads is back. I would have preferred a return of the half-hoop shoe, half-light brite LA Gear‘s, but Zubaz will do.

Most famous for a brief stint as officially licensed NFL gear and being the favourite pants of the Legion of Doom, Zubaz were started in the Midwestern US in the late ’80s. Originally intended for gym monkeys who needed maximum crotch room and no doubt inspired by MC Hammer, the distinct Zubaz pattern became a beacon for low-enders everywhere. And just like herpes, they have returned.

If you want, you can buy your Zubaz straight from the source at Zubaz.com. But before you go ahead and decide to ruin somebody’s Christmas, watch this Zubaz fashion show.



Bucs Cheerleaders Go Orange by Corbet

The NFL has been on a retro kick this year, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers even busted out their orange creamsicle jersey this past weekend, helping them win their 1st game of the season. Good for them for not duplicating last year’s 0-16 Detroit Lions but I think the real story from the game was the Bucs cheerleaders also rocking retro attire (Check out the 1976 cheerleaders here). I say the team should go orange permanently. What say you?



What the hell is wrong with Sammy Sosa’s skin? by Corbet

It looks like Sammy Sosa has taken the loss of Michael Jackson rougher than most.

He recently showed up at the Latin Grammy’s in Las Vegas looking about as creepy as possible. Slammin’ Sammy has brushed off the comparisons to MJ, Casper the Friendly Ghost and Powder, saying he is undergoing some beautification process to rejuvenate his skin after decades of sun damage.

Former Cubs employee Rebecca Polihronis, who speaks with SS regularly, said:

“He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white.”

I’m not up-to-date on female skin rejuvenation, but I have never seen anyone lose 70% of their pigment by using a moisturizer. Jesus, even his ears are white.

Keep an eye on Sammy in the coming months, let’s see if he goes back to black or continues his chemical attempt to join the white team.

And for those who wish to remember the old Sammy…

Check the look of Puffy’s Diddy’s face when he finds a one dollar bill mixed in amongst his wad of Benjamins. He looks like he’s just been Punk’d. What a guy.



Tebow 3:16 by Corbet

If you watched the NCAA Championship game last week, you know all about what a sterling example of Christian humanity Tim Tebow is (click the toast for a refresher). If I had a girlfriend like Tebow, I’d believe in God too.

What you probably didn’t know about God’s second-favourite QB (Kurt Warner is #1), is that Tim Tebow once stiff armed a horse. That animal became what is now known as the giraffe. Read more incredible exploits of Tebow 3:16 at the Sporting Muse, where they have put together an excellent list of Tim Tebowisms.

And why do people think this guy is going to fail in the NFL? He is a beast with a laser-rocket arm and 50 times the brain of Vince Young. If I was a GM and he was on the board in the late first round, I would scoop him up in a second. Imagine him on a team like Miami, running 5-10 Wildcat plays a game. Jebus help the NFL if he gets utilized right.
