After Tom Brady admitted that he surfed the internet for porn, Ben Roethlisberger comes clean in the Washington Post yesterday about the fact that he finds women on the Internet.

And after a lot of research, I was unable to find this unedited dialogue that took place between Ben and Tom in a Yahoo! Alternate Lifestyles chat room. Please be advised that it is graphic and disturbing.

Joey Porter, shown here after Woogie advised him to flog the dolphin before every big game.I haven’t spent a lot of time talking about the Super Bowl lately… mainly because there isn’t much happening. And there still isn’t… but we’re going to talk about it anyway. The only thing that happened today is that Joey Porter found a little comment and used it to make himself all red and huffy. That is not news. That is what Joey Porter does.

Jerramy Stevens said about Jerome Bettis, “It’s a heartwarming story and all that, but it will be a sad day when he leaves without that trophy.”

And Joey Porter responded as only Joey Porter would.

“I’ve been asleep all week but now I got woke up. I’ve got my first taste of blood and now I’m thirsty for more. Until now, it was ‘Watch what I say,’ ‘I can’t say this,’ ‘I can’t say that,’ ‘Don’t do anything silly,’ but I’m ready now.

“You look for the guys that say something that aren’t supposed to say nothing, and I feel like he definitely was out of pocket to say what he said. I’m going to make sure he owns up to those words.

“He’s too soft to say something like that. He’s going to have the opportunity to back up his words. I’m going to have the opportunity to back up my words. So, it’s something I’m looking forward to and I’m ready to get going.

Porter also called Stevens “a first-round bust who barely made some plays this season.” He also said a player of Stevens’ stature “has a lot of nerve” to say what he said about Bettis.

I don’t know if Joey Porter expected Jerramy Stevens to wake up this morning and make Jerome’s bed for him, spot for him in the weight room, and then dedicate his performance in the Super Bowl to Jerome and his family… but he didn’t. He just said he thought Seattle was going to win. Which is fair. Because he plays for Seattle.

But it doesn’t matter. Logic and reasoning aren’t things that Joey Porter is all that familiar with. It doesn’t matter what he thinks, and it doesn’t matter what he said. It is all self-indulgent masturbation at this point… and Joey Porter has elevated it into an artform.

Body blow, body blow... KNOCK HIM OUT.Ottawa Senators goalie Ray Emery wore a mask the other night featuring the image of Mike Tyson… and his GM, John Muckler, has talked him into taking it off. He didn’t ‘make’ him take it off… but he gently eased him in that direction.

“We didn’t ask him not to wear the mask,” Senators GM John Muckler said Tuesday. “We just had a discussion about what was right and what was wrong. He said he would take it off.”

Yeah, we wouldn’t want anyone to sully hockey. “Hey kids, come to a game, watch two grown men punch each other in the face without repercussions. But please avert your gaze from the 6-inch airbrushed image of Mike Tyson because that is threatening to tear apart the moral fabric of our game. And hey, how about a hand for Todd Bertuzzi!”

Anyway… in the interests of full disclosure, I am biased here, on both sides. I love Mike Tyson… and, as bizarre as it may seem, I hate John Muckler. The last time I was a hockey fan, he was coaching the Rangers quite poorly. In addition, he’s pretty much the reason that Ted Nolan can’t get another NHL job. Or, at the very least, he represents the old boys hockey network that is the reason that Ted Nolan can’t get a job. Anyway, I hope Mike hears about this and shows up at a Senators game looking for a piece of Muckler.

Emery also has masks that honor Marvin Hagler and Jack Johnson… which makes him just about the coolest guy in the history of the NHL. And while we’re here… isn’t the goalie mask about the most unique uniform thing that exists in all of sports? I mean, what other sport allows you to put whatever you want on one piece of uniform equipment? If David Stern had to deal with that, he’d kill himself.

Holy Lord.Citing conflicts over recent issues with the league’s dress code and players going into the stands (and spreading STDs), Dennis Rodman has stepped down as commissioner of the Lingerie Bowl.

Actually, he stepped down because The Lingerie Bowl negotiated an endoresment deal with online gambling website bodog.com, while Rodman is a paid endorser of goldenpalace.com. The Lingerie Bowl is now looking into replacing Rodman with a celebrity of equal magnitude, someone like Carrot Top or Kurt Rambis.

And did you know that you can gamble on The Lingerie Bowl? It’s true. You can beat on the winner (I like the New York Euphoria over the Los Angeles Temptation, because of their strong vertical passing game and plastic tits), which team will score first, what position player will score the first touchdown, and if anyone will perform a pole dance after a touchdown. Really. You can. That seems like easy money.

Ya think that Peyton Manning and Steve Francis ever swap wives?• As it turns out, Cuttino Mobley wasn’t the only one who was victimized when his place was broken into. Whoever broke in not only took $500,000 in Cuttino’s cash, but also got some of Steve Francis’s jewelry. Which was at Cuttino Mobley’s apartment. Steve Francis’s jewelry was at Cuttino Mobley’s apartment. Gay rumors have started on less. Way, way, less. I hope the bandits didn’t get Steve’s boxers or toothbrush.

• Nice find by the Wizard of Odds here. Jeb Bush, governor of Florida, and brother of that guy who was all over TV last night saying positively nothing, is doing some recruiting for Florida State. Via text message, no less.

• Here’s an excellent offering from CBS Sportsline’s fledgling SPiN on Sports. Clay Travis sums up a lot of the reasons why I positively hate the spectacle that is the Super Bowl. He goes over 25 different kinds of fans who you don’t want to be watching the Super Bowl with. It bothers me… it personally offends me, even, that so many people who have no interest in the game intrude on it to the point that the NFL and the networks feel compelled to make it a sideshow that appeals to every schmuck out there. Anyway… I enjoyed this column. Give it a look.

• Today’s worthless bit of Super Bowl news: The roman numerals “XL” are really great. Really. That’s the theme of this New York Times article… that this particular roman numeral is the best ever. These are the kinds of stories that Ed Harken sends Veronica Corningstone out to cover.

He jumps high.And I think it looks like a damn good one.

Definding champion Josh Smith. I think you have to make him the early favorite to repeat, just based on last year’s creativity. He used Kenyon Martin as a prop, he busted out the Dominique jersey… this is a man who knows that creativity is important, and who knows he has to step his game up.

Nate Robinson. On the 20th anniversary of Spud Webb’s victory in the dunk contest, 5’9″ Nate Robinson steps in. He’s got the opportunity to really do something special. The little guys who can stay in the air the longest are really at a huge advantage. Robinson’s got a great chance to step in and blow some minds.

Hakim Warrick. A great dunker. He’s got those long helicopter arms, and he’s thrown down some impressive in-game dunks. Some of the slams he threw down at Syracuse were on SportsCenter for days afterwards. But it’s going to be very hard for a big man to win this thing. They just can’t hang in the air and get as many things done. Without major creativity and probably some help from someone else, Hakim Warrick isn’t getting out of the first round.

Andre Iguodala. Potential to be awesome. He’s the right size kind of guy… small enough to take off from the foul fine, but big enough to throw it down with some thunder. He’s certainly as capable as anyone else.

I’d have liked to have seen J.R. Smith get an invite back… He didn’t make it to the Finals last year, but his first-round behind-the-back dunk is maybe the most underrated dunk of all time. It had to be incredibly hard to do, and I had never seen anyone else do it before. But oh well.

It’s going to come down to creativity. I think use of teammates/friends is going to be big this year. Last year, Josh Smith used Kenyon Martin, and Amare Stoudamire used Steve Nash… and both went over exceedingly well. J.R. Smith tried to use a teammate, too, but… well, that teammate was Chris Andersen, and he was hell-bent on destroying everything in his path last year. In fairness, though, he may have been strung out, so I’m cutting him some slack.

I think they did it on purpose...

The first thing I thought when I saw that headline was, “Damn… 10,000 already? Guy’s been doing some serious fuckin’.”

I’m not proud of myself.

As it turns out, Kobe becomes just the 2nd player of all time to average 40 points across an entire month… which is neither as scandalous, or as impressive. But congratulations to him anyway.
