Mmmmm meat. There’s something about that just makes my mouth water. It must be the taste. But taste alone is not enough to make meat amazing, apparently meat can be a pretty good springboard for earning some serious cash. Take Li Li from China for example.
Although soon to be my sworn enemy (when Michigan takes on UConn in football), the state of Connecticut currently houses a new hero of mine. This hero is Caey Casasanta, a man unknown to me until a couple days ago when I found an article about an incredible eating contest in Connecticut.
All the buzz for this year’s Masters Golf Tournament revolves around some dude named Tiger. I don’t see the big deal about him and it’s not like he’s done anything interesting recently anyway. Luckily for sports fans, though, there is a much better man on tour. He is none other than Angel Cabrera, the big winner of last year’s Masters.
Once upon a time, Bob Barker was a man loved by all. Who doesn’t remember The Price is Right being the highlight of sick days? Who didn’t laugh when Barker was teamed with Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore? Well kiss those good memories goodbye, because Barker has just taken a turn to the dark side.
So the Olympics are over, but if they have taught us anything, we all know that Canada is a pretty sweet place. I may be partial to the country since I grew up an hour from the border and took advantage of the 19+ drinking age in Ontario. Or I may be partial to the country because I am half Canadian and am enamored by both curling and hockey. Whatever the reason, I’ve now discovered a new reason to love Canada and it is called “Body Break.”
Okay, so the Winter Olympics aren’t the most interesting sporting event in the world. I understand that, but let’s be honest: has anyone not watched any of the Olympics this year? If you haven’t, you are truly missing out. When else can you watch snowboarding, curling, and bobsledding? All these sports typically bore me, but once every four years, I enjoy their existence. Which brings me to Shaun White.
While I disagree with the way they chose to spell “Zac,” that is far less important than the things in which I agree with Zac Brown Band. Since the band has been catapulted into the spotlight with their song, “Chicken Fried,” PETA has tried to capitalize on their fame by trying to convince them to give up meat. Good thing the Zac Brown Band isn’t some boring celebrity ready to roll over for the radical group.
Eva Longoria-Parker busted onto the scene a few years ago with Desperate Housewives and back then she didn’t have that pesky “-Parker” attached to her name. Since then, though, she has managed to retain her beauty by keeping a steady diet of meat products.
Apparently in South America, there is no need for Viagra. According to Argentinian President Cristina Fernandez, all it takes is some porking…err…pork. The Cleveland Reader reports that, “…she spent a satisfying weekend with her husband after eating barbecued pork.”
Here’s an oldie, but a goodie. About a year and a half ago, Jessica Simpson was spotted wearing an amazing shirt. It read, “REAL GIRLS EAT MEAT” and is so true. Of course, Simpson isn’t exactly known for her knowledge of meat (anyone remember that “Chicken of the Sea” moment from a few years back?), but I won’t hold that against here. Besides, all she wanted to do was eat some animal, and she did.
