You've Done it Again!

The British tabloid newspaper News of the World has a long tradition of exposing sports stars scandals, and this time the world snooker champion John Higgins is screwed.

After Higgins' defeat in the tournament, he flew to Ukraine and met an undercover News of the World investigator. At the meeting, Higgins promised to deliberately lose frames to help illegal gambling syndicates clean up and agreed on the bribe of Euro 300,000. Higgins even bragged that it was easy to fool fans and there was no risk in this kind of cheat.

......

HIGGINS: "It's easy. Its easy."

MOONEY: "You make one mistake. . ."

HIGGINS: "You don't even have to make a mistake."

REPORTER: "You have to be sure if you're going to tell him 'Frame three I'm going to lose."

HIGGINS: "Oh yeah. Frame three I'm going to lose, yes, yes."

REPORTER: "Yeah, but I mean what if he gets a good break? What's the risk factor I mean?"

HIGGINS: "No risk. No, because you can miss."

......

This shameless deal is perfectly filmed and here it is.


John Higgins, has been suspended from the professional snooker tour pending an investigation.

Let us review some of the famous scandals reported by the News of the World

  • David Beckham and Rebecca Loos' affair (2004)

  • Michael Phelps smokes from a cannabis bong (2009)


  • Max Mosley's sexual acts with 5 prostitutes (2008)

Epic Missing Moment in History



Kansas City Wizard striker Kei Kamara made an epic missing last month. Actually, he didn't miss it. He punched the ball in with his hand. It reminds me of Maradona's goal with the hand of god. But this poor guy definitely has the hand of devil.

Bog Snorkeling

Our next insane sport is a bit dirty...

Image by http://blog.icepick.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/bog-snorkel-1.jpg


The World Bog Snorkelling Championships occur in Wales every year at Llanwrtd Wales in August

The aim of Bog Snorkeling is for swimmers to travel through the complete course using their flippers, googles and snorkels....
Thats not so bad expect for the fact they are swimming through flodded trenches created in peat bogs.

My verdict... I give Bog Snorkeling a 6/10 Kaotic Approval
Don't get me wrong its dirty and hard but im not sure how life threating it is. Unless of course you cant swim. Maybe i was a little harsh but that the way i see it.
Any way if your in Wales and can see it go watch/join in.
KAOS

King LBJ returns to his throne

Suprise, suprise, the Cleveland Cavalier's infamous number 23, wins the NBA's regular season's Most Valuable Player Award. Lebrron James proves once again that he is the 'king'. With the likes of Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russell, Magic Johnson and current point guard of the Phoenix Suns, Steve Nash, Lebron James joins this exclusive club of regular season back-to-back MVP winners. Surpassing the likes of Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers, Lebron James stood with his well-earned trophy and his team-mates-who he claims to have had a lot to do with him becoming the recipient of such a prestigious award. In his home-town of Akron, Ohio fans camped overnight the Akron University where he was presented with the award, to get a climpse of their home-town hero with most definitely one of the National Basketball Association's greatest award for an individual player. Lebron James loves coming back to the place of his childhood stating to his millions of fans around the world that "Akron, Ohio is my life and I love this city...This is home for me". Arriving in royalty like fashion, Lebron James stepped out of his Maybach Zeppelin (yes it is a very expensive car), in a grey suit and shirt, well fitted for his king-like presence.


Finishing with 29.7 points per game, 8.6 assists per game and a field goal percentage of just over 50%, Lebron James says his next step is getting an NBA Championship which is his ultimate goal as a professional player 'I understand that until I won that I won't go down as one of the greatest players ever. That's my only goal right now'. Lebron and the Cavs take on the Boston Celtics in the second round of the playoff series with game one kicking off tomorrow.

Gay’s Aiming at 9.58



Tyson Gay, world’s second fastest man, is confident that he will close the gap on his super rival Usain Bolt in 2010.

Suffered from a groin injury last year, Gay pulled out of the 200m at the World Championships in Berlin and ranked the second over 100m behind Bolt. Gay equaled Bolt's former world record of 9.69 seconds last September at the Shanghai Golden Grand Prix.

Recovering from his injury this year, Tyson is optimistic about this season. Earlier in last month, Gay clocked 44.89 seconds over 400m in Florida, which made him the only sprinter to dip under ten seconds over 100m, 20 seconds over 200m and 45 seconds over 400m.


"I'm healthy and for me to open over 400m with 44.8 by accident, having not been training in spikes or done any speed work, I think that's amazing.”

"And I'm really looking forward to staying healthy going into a World Championship year. My groin does feel 100 per cent and I'm very happy about that.”

"I've already programmed my mind to run faster than 9.69 this year." Tyson said.


However comparing with the 100m world record of 9.58 seconds hold by Usain Bolt, Tyson Gay’s 100m personal best 9.69s (with a wind speed of +2.0 which is the maximum tail wind allowed) is miles behind. Let us see what will Tyson Gay bring us this year?
