Goon Chris Simon suspended another 30 games

Chris Simon is THE bonehead of the NHL — this guy can’t stop maliciously hurting people and drawing suspensions. The latest incident came on Saturday during the Islanders’ loss to Pittsburgh. Simon took out the leg of Jarkko Ruutu, sending him into the boards. Then Simon decided to dig the blade of his skate into [...]

Kansas star Brandon Rush arrested for skipping court appearance

Kansas scoring machine Brandon Rush was arrested for not appearing in court to settle several traffic incidents. The guy can drive to the hole but apparently can’t drive a car — among the charges were driving on the wrong side of the road, driving uninsured, speeding, and driving on a suspended license. I think that [...]

Jay Gibbons and Jose Guillen suspended 15 games for HGH use

Here we go, let the suspensions begin!  A number of major leaguers have been accused of taking HGH, but baseball didn’t ban the substance until January 2005.  Players like Troy Glaus, Gary Matthews Jr., Rick Ankiel, and Scott Schoeneweis were let off the hook, because even if they did get shipments of the stuff, it [...]

Florida defensive end Cunningham gets misdemeanor for throwing paper cups

Florida defensive end Jermaine Cunningham, along with former linebacker Jon Demps, were arrested for misdemeanor battery, and Cunningham may end up missing his bowl game against Michigan because of it. Did he get in a fist fight or whack someone with a bat? No. Demps threw a sandwich at a Jimmy John’s [...]

Travis Henry — victim of secondhand smoke!

My god, are you kidding?  Travis Henry won his appeal because of that weak argument pulled out of his ass?  Does that mean I can get a free meal at a restaurant for sitting in the smoking section?  How could the league have bought this?  Check out more details here, and I’m sure there were [...]

Vikings defensive end Ray Edwards suspended for steroid use

Chalk up another steroid-jacking bonehead — Minnesota Vikings defensive end Ray Edwards has been suspended 4 games for violating the league’s steroid use policy. Edwards has been a big key to Minnesota’s success on defense this year, but I guess jacking up made him that way. It’s probably due time that guys get suspended for [...]

Arkansas State leading scorer Banks suspended after gun arrest

Here’s a boneheaded act that got Arkansas State‘s leading scorer suspended indefinitely from the team — early Sunday morning, Adrian Banks was arrested for firing a gun in the air several times.  Banks claimed he found the gun at a night club, and he was firing off the shots so that no one would get [...]

Broad Street Boneheads warned due to repeated bullying

The Philadelphia Flyers are out of control!  After racking up their FIFTH suspension of the season, the NHL decided it needed to warn the Flyers that severe punishment will follow if this behavior keeps up.  In other words, the beatings will continue until morale improves.  The latest incident involved Riley Cote, who delivered an elbow [...]
