Group of Death: If Looks Could Kill

For a blog that boasts being about skins and hot dudes in sports, I've noticed that shockingly, I've deviated from my mission. I must bring it back to my roots, and write about what I know.

 

Ladies, meet the men of the Group of Death...a.k.a the hottest men in the Euro 2012.

Robin Van Persie - Netherlands

Antonio di Natale - Italy

Cesc Fàbregas - Spain

Cristiano Ronaldo - Portugal

Apparently I have a type, and it's tall, dark, and handsome, with a side of faux hawk. Didn't feel like a pervert at all, sitting at Starbucks doing my due diligence and drooling researching for the list.

Matt Cain: The No-Hitter, The Workhorse, The STUD

Matt Cain pitches the first perfect game in Giant's franchise history, and only the 22nd perfect game in major league history. I may be biased because I'm a die hard Giants fan, but Matt Cain is the mother effing MAN. 14 strikeouts in a 10-0 victory over the Astros. This just validates why Brian Sabean rewarded Cain with a $127.5 million, six-year contract back in April.

Cain's pitching was on point, but he had some support from the Giants stellar defense. Gregor Blanco laid it out on the warning track in the 7th robbing Jordan Schafer of a hit and keeping the perfect game intact. Thank god, Bochy decided to start Joaquin Arias on 3rd instead of Pablo Sandoval. The extra lbs that Panda is carrying coupled with his off-the-field women problems, not quite sure he would have been able to get that final out at 1st, which could have cost Cain his historical night.

Something must be in the June air in San Francisco. Madison Bumgarner hit his first home run in last night's 6-3 victory, tonight Matt Cain pitches a perfect game, what is Barry Zito going to do tomorrow???

Ridiculous Decisions

We all make bad decisions...swimming after eating, texting while driving, 2am drunk dials, but Saturday's decision between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley was downright ridiculous. 

I think we all agree that Pacquiao deserved to win. I think we can also agree that nobody really cares about boxing these days, and we won't care about boxing until we see the super-fight between Pacquiao vs. Mayweather, which may not even happen.

One thing is for sure, for the rematch in November, there will be no mistake when Manny gets his revenge and unleashes his fury on Bradley's face. KO.

Nostradamus: NBA Finals Prediction

Like Nostradamus, I have the great ability to make a million predictions, and there's a pretty good chance a handful of them are going to come true.

NBA Final Champions: Oklahoma City Thunder in 6.

The Thunder have home court advantage in the series, which is huge considering Miami is 28-5 at home this season. But even more important is the Thunder are all around a better TEAM. They are better at sharing the ball and getting players involved. They have a deeper bench, are faster, and can score points in a hurry. The series isn't going to be easy, but the Heat rely too heavily on LeBron and Wade to beat a complete team like the Thunder. If one of those two has an off night, it’s pretty much over. Bosh will add the dimension they were missing while he was out with his injury, but it won’t be enough to get them over the hump. They couldn’t beat the Mavericks last year and that team wasn’t nearly as good as this year’s Thunder squad. Kevin Durant will get his first ring, while LeBron has to settle for the consolation prize of his three MVP trophies for yet another year. 

Lebron, you can take your "talents" elsewhere.
