TUBSTER'S DIET HITS SNAG!
Las Vegas, NV - World renowned Sportalicious! gaming tipster the Tubster (not his real name) has run into trouble in his attempt to shave off a few of his 483 pounds. With three weeks off from his regular tip column (an amazing 51.2% right versus only 48.8% wrong this year!) Tubs dedicated himself to a no-carb diet and with ten days had shed over nine pounds. But Sunday he was found at Don Aries' Ram Antlers Casino halfway up Mount Charleston, his skin bright yellow, playing blackjack and eating a turkey straight off the carcass. "We knew something was wrong 'cause he was winning," said a shaken Aries. Tubster stopped breathing and was rushed to Penn & Teller Medical Center where surgery was performed but then de-bunked as a mere magic trick.

MR. STATS NEARLY SMOTHERED IN HOSPITAL!
Ames, IA - Glen Furg, Sportalicious's own "Mr. Stats," was attacked in Cornstalk Hospital in this sleepy college town by two strong male Iowa State fans who were livid that Furg had referred to their NIT Finals-bound Cyclones as "the Funnels." They jammed a pillow over Furg's head as he lay resting in intensive care, but were scared away when a nurse entered with a 23-year-old med student and tried to make love to him in the empty bed opposite Furg. Furg had transferred to Cornstalk to ease his recovery after being beaten senseless after the first round of the NCAA basketball tourney for calling every team by the wrong name.

A-ROD, JETER FIGHT OVER PEDICURE!
Millionaire Island, The Bronx - It just gets uglier, folks! Sportalicious reporters disguised as actual sports reporters witnessed Round 7 of the ongoing feud between New York Yankee pretty boys Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter. Rodriguez insisted he had a 2:45pm appointment with a pedicurist and Jeter absolutely refused to budge out of the chaisse lounge used by visiting pedicurists. The two nearly came to blows but instead just butted lapels of their Frette Italian terry cloth robes valued at $500. The 62-year-old pedicurist left without a tip but did leave four new nail files for pitcher Mariano Rivera.

HOCKEY NEARING SOME SORT OF LAST ROUND!
Buffalo, NY - The National Hockey League appears to be winding down to some sort of playoff situation, this according to tips from inside the world's most secretive pro sport. Apparently, sources say, several games still need to be played, followed by a selection of several of the better teams to then play each other, with winners taking on winners until only one team remains. This team will be crowned champion. These playoffs are a highly secret tradition despite the fact they are nationally televised.

APRIL FOOLS PIES APPEAR SPOILED!
Bobbenton Cove, FL - Baseball's spring training tradition of smashing pies into players' faces as they do interviews on April Fool's Day may be in jeopardy. Marvie's Joke Pies, the traditional source of pies for face smashing, suffered an attempted break-in at their joke-pie bakery off the Inland Waterway near Jacksonville. The robbers got away with only seven empty Redi-Whip cans but did sever the main refrigeration cable, thinking it was the phone line, and pies slated for April Fool's delivery to every major league team spoiled overnight in temperatures that exceeded 95 degrees. "We'll only be able to use 'em on players we hate now," said a veteran who asked to remain nameless because he's on steroids. Team doctors have prepared for any infection by splitting a load of penicillin they stole from a junior high school sex education class.
