Eva Mendes, because when I wrote about the Heat in the headline, I immediately thought spicy, which led me to Latina, which led me to Eva Mendes, which led me to this picture of her sticking her ass out. That's kind of how it works around here.Chris Bosh was the biggest of the Big 3 Sunday night, leading the Heat to a win against the Chicago Bulls in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference finals series. If you watched this game and the recap shows, you certainly heard this: "The Bulls only have one guy who can create his own shot." This has become ridiculously apparent in the last two games, and if Derrick Rose doesn't go off for 40-50 for the rest of the series, the Bulls probably aren't winning. As I've said for the last two weeks, the Heat are winning the NBA Title, and there's nothing we can do about it. (Miami Herald)
Thanks to three (!) 5-on-3 goals in less than two minutes, the Canucks won Game 4 of the Western Conference finals to take a 3-1 lead on the San Jose Sharks. Unfortunately for Sharks fans, they don't have a gripe, as it was a too-many-men penalty, along with a delay of game that put the Sharks down two men the second two times. These are things the officials can't ignore. I'd love to say I feel sorry for Sharks fans, but I don't. Not one bit. Not after last year's series against the Red Wings was essentially decided by 5-on-3 goals in San Jose. The Canucks are winning the whole thing, by the way, and I'm not nearly as upset about this as I thought I might be. (The Province)
The Tigers beat the Pirates 2-0 to snap their five-game losing streak. This streak, of course, came after the Tigers had reeled off a considerable win streak. That streak, of course, followed a considerable losing streak. It's no surprise this is a .500 team, and we can probably expect a lot of the same as long as the Tigers' offense continues to be consistently inconsistent. (DetNews)
The French Open started Sunday, and my money's on this guy. Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer were great for the game of tennis because they gave it a rivalry that even Americans were interested in. Novak Djokovic has been in their shadow for the past couple of years, but he's now busting out, and he has the personality to accompany No. 1 talent. If you're a tennis fan, he's a guy you're going to want at the forefront of your sport. (ESPN)
A devastating tornado leveled the city of Joplin, Mo. last night, leaving at least 89 dead. Early reports on Twitter were saying that 75% of the city was gone. A hospital was destroyed, as was the high school. This is the most damaging tornado in the United States since 1953. (News-Leader)
On a brighter note, the Rapture didn't happen on Saturday, that or all of you are heathens like myself. What's fun about this story is, most of us were making fun of this doomsday prediction, but there were people who really thought it was going to happen. This family's unborn child should be taken away from them upon birth. (Huffington Post)
