This is a great clip that I found at youtube. I'm starting to think that maybe the Falcon's shouldn't have traded Matt Schaub...nnaaaahhhhhhh

NHL Draft

2007-06-22T17:01:00.000-04:00

The
NHL Draft kicks off tonight, and the trade rumors are rampant. Chicago has the 1st over all pick, and is expected to take 17-year-old Kyle Turris, or 18-year-old Patrick Kane. My Thrashers don't pick until the 3rd round, but that's ok, because I know that this guy will still be available.

I love me some Footy

Honestly, I don't see why this sport isn't more popular here in the US. My favorite part of the clip is the reff in the beginning. If all soccer reffs were so flamboyant, I really think soccer would be more fun. Enjoy. For a more artful soccer commentary, check out Braves and Birds.

Tech's Wreck

2007-06-21T21:18:00.000-04:00

According to the AJC:

The vintage car that has led the football team onto Grant Field before Yellow Jackets games since 1961 was wrecked for real as it was being towed to Savannah to be used in a wedding.

Tech officials said Wednesday that they hope to get repairs done to the 1930 Model A Sports Coupe mascot in time for the home opener against Samford.

"It's gonna lead the team out on the field for that Sept. 8 football game, that's for sure," associate athletic director Wayne Hogan told WAGA-TV.

Tech senior John Bird and his brother, Matt, were hauling the Wreck on a flatbed truck on Friday when there was "a grinding noise" and "we hit the ditch and the Wreck fell on its side," Bird said.

The brothers received minor injuries, but the car was damaged on its roof and side, he said.

"We took a vote, and decided pretty much unanimously that there wouldn't be any pictures of it wrecked," said senior John Bird, the car's elected driver. "We might have some photos of reconstruction, but not of it wrecked.

"It's just honestly the spirit of the vehicle. We don't want to tarnish that. It's a mystique. We don't want it to be lost."

Yeah, God forbid Georgia Tech lose it's mystique.

Just gimme the damn seed, I mean ball

The video below was leaked to me from a close friend in the NCAA office. It is Reggie Bush's recruiting video that is used to show to potential recruits at USC. Apparently it's a big hit. And against NCAA regulations. I'll say this, Saint Reggie sure is dirty.

Vick repents, want to help the community

On my way home today, I decided to stop over in Sugarloaf to talk with my old buddy Mike Vick. Let me tell you friends, the man sure is sorry. He told me that he never meant to hurt any dogs, and thought that he was just doing a public service by exterminating extremely violent, emotionally damaged dogs in a semi-humane way. Frankly, I believe him. He's clearly a great man, with a great vision. Some men are just created with an amazing ability to see the world around them, and make decisions that leave us all in awe. Don't hate. On my way out, he wanted me to take a picture of him on his latest venture: selling slaves. I asked him if that was still legal, and he said: "I don't give a shit, we got to start making money selling our own people before you rich-assed white people start doing it again and making all the money. I wished him the best, and declined his free sample. That Mike Vick, what a guy.

Welcome to Sport Sauce, I am Sauce and I will be your guide. You will meet the other contributors when they decide to post something. Today is our birthday. Not my birthday, but our birthday here at Sport Sauce. There is nothing greater than the joy of berthing something. Ask Shawn Kemp. I hope that this blog will be fun, exciting, climatic (I think that's a word, you look it up), apropos, and at worst informative. If you have any questions, then ask someone else.
