TOP NBA PLAYERS KILL TWO HOURS TOGETHER!
Just North Of The Bad Part Of LA - Over thirty NBA players got together last Sunday afternoon for an easy-going brunch and shootaround at the Staples Center. The players compared notes on cars, SUVs, foreign cars, car sound systems, SUV wheel rims, car and SUV custom lighting packages, cars of the future, next year's car and SUV models, car garages, changing vehicular manslaughter laws, increasing car values, chicks and Jayson Williams. Then they held a casual "first team to 135 points" shootaround televised by TNT. Proceeds from the event were distributed evenly among the players for future car and SUV-related expenses.

SELIG STUMBLES, MAKES RIGHT MOVE!
New York, NY - Acting baseball commissioner Bud Selig inadvertently broke a world-record string of 53 consecutive wrong decisions by okaying the trade that sent Alex Rodriguez from the Texas Rangers to the New York Yankees in exchange for Alphonso Soriano and mind-boggling debt relief. Selig was about to nix the trade but apparently suffered an attack of hypertension in a New York City cab and was prescribed Ambien by a Jamaican "doctor" on the scene. Selig took seven of the pills. Ten minutes later he okayed the Rodriguez deal and later on picked up the dinner tab at Nobu, a move his assistant called "unprecedented."

CIVILITY MARS DAYTONA 500!
Daytona, FL - In a shocking display of couth, NASCAR drivers in Sunday's Daytona 500 failed to blame each other for several race-stopping incidents, refrained from calling each other names and browbeat no one during the entire running of the race. "This sucks," said race fan Tom Bob Purjor, a 44-year-old used water heater hauler from Drainage Villas, Florida, adding, "I might have to switch to Ultimate Fightin'. Or try the gay thing." NASCAR officials admitted TV ratings dropped steadily throughout the race and said they would address the rampant, ugly politeness with a series of "Dad Gum It!" seminars slated to begin next week.

GAP IN BUSH MILITARY RECORDS? - PBA TOUR!
Port Saint DimmyDing, AL - Sportalicious! reporters disguised as road crew convicts have discovered that former president George W. -- Whoops! -- current president George W. Bush was briefly on the Pro Bowlers Tour in 1972-'73, thus solving the controversy over an unexplained 'gap' in Bush's National Guard records. Bush, a solid bowler through his college years, joined the tour under the name "Arturo Cantinflas, Jr." A bowler by that name made $853 in an eighteen-month time span in '72-'73 on the PBA Tour, then attacked a shoe spray girl in Grand Platte, Nebraska and was forced off the Tour by the other bowlers.

S-PEES TO BE SEEN ON TELEMUNDO!
Cheddar Falls, WI - Sportalicious's sports awards show, "The S-Pees Live From The Las Vegas Trailways Bus Maintenance Hangar," has found a broadcast home - none other than Spanish-speaking giant Telemundo! Telemundo apparently agreed to a high four-figure licensing fee and a tape-delayed air date of 4am, Wednesday, april 21st, though confirmation of this was difficult as no one on the conference call from Sportalicious's end spoke Spanish. The awards show - not affiliated in any way with ESPN's Espy awards except that it is also a sports awards show - will be dubbed into Spanish prior to the air date and then will carry english subtitles for our non-bilingual fans.
