It is Friday! And it is time once again to honor the individual in the world of sports who has embarassed himself or herself the most during the week.
The competition was very tough this week. First, you have Dick Pound, the international sports drug czar, spewing stupidity again this week. His comments about the NHL drug testing program nearly got him the honor of going to the chair this week, but he came up just short. Do not worry, Dick, the Tour De France is about to begin. You will be honored then. I promise!
Another near winner was the United States soccer team. The U.S. performance in their first game of the 2006 FIFA World Cup was just brutal. Really, if you guys do not want to show up to play, have the courage to forfeit the match prior to its starting. With another week of the World Cup left, the U.S. soccer team is the favorite to go to the chair next week.
And now to the winner...Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The Super Bowl winning QB may be able to dodge a blitzing linemen, but he cannot avoid a car driven by a granny. Add to that that he was not wearing a helmet and that results in a fractured jaw, loss teeth, and a nasty gash in his head. Way to go Ben! Now your NFL season may be lost. Congrats...and for that you get the honor to go the chair in the Friday Fryer!
