Kyra Phillips: We know you all too well....

For those of you who have not heard yet, while President Bush was doing his Katrina speech, CNN news anchor Kyra Phillips was adding her own harmony to the piece. Apparently someone left her mic open while she was having a conversation with another woman in the CNN restroom and it was broadcast over President Bush's speech. While Phillips complimented her husband, her sister-in-law didn't end up so lucky. Below is an actual transcript of the above video attained from Newsbusters.org:



Kyra Phillips: "assholes Yeah, I'm very lucky in that regard with my husband. My husband is handsome and he is genuinely a loving, you know, no ego[unintelligible] you know what I'm saying. Just a really passionate, compassionate great, great human being. And they exist. They do exist. They are hard to find. Yup. But they are out there."

[unidentified woman]: We'll see. He's going to come, you know, he's set for an extended visit[unintelligible]"

Phillips: "I mean, that's, that's how you figure it all out, those extended visits. [laughter]"

[unidentified woman]: "Yeah, but my mom, I think she really likes him."

Phillips: "Mom's got a good vibe? Good."

[unidentified woman]: "Yeah, my brother's the one that[unintelligible]"

Phillips: "Brother of course, brothers have to be, you know, protective. Except for mine. I've got to be protective of him."

[unidentified woman unintelligible]

Phillips: "Yeah. He's married, three kids, but his wife is just a control freak."

[unidentified woman #2]: "Kyra."

Phillips: "Yeah, baby?"

[unidentified woman #2]: "Your mic is on. Turn it off. It's been on the air."

Seconds later, Daryn Kagan stumbled through this awkward transition:

Daryn Kagan: "Alright, we've been listening in to President Bush as he speaks in, uh, New Orleans today. This is the one year anniversary of Katrina making land shore there. President Bush saying if another natural disaster hits, our country we must, uh, react better than that. Let's listen in once again to President Bush."



And as great as this mistake was, this wasn't the first time Kyra has been involved in a CNN snafu. Thanks to Newsbusters.org we are also reminded of another mishap:



Kyra Phillips: "Now, I've seen Michael Bolton sitting behind the President. Obviously not now, we're looking at different live pictures. Are we going to hear from him? Or have we heard from him?"

Richard Roth: "Well, you may -- you're not going to hear him sing. I think you said Michael Bolton, John Bolton the US ambassador-"

Phillips (embarrassed): "John Bolton. Richard, thank you so much. You're taking me back now to, what, the early '80s? My goodness."

Roth: "Yes, and this ambassador has much shorter hair."

Phillips: "And no relation, right? Maybe we should make that clear."

Roth: "No relation. Though some of his remarks has -- have caused some hair-raising reaction from advocates for some groups...."



Wow! CNN must be really holding their head high today. I mean, who wouldn't be? Especially after this current reporting masterpiece that makes all of us want to grow up to be news anchors. I know I do! But Kyra, I think it would be fair at this point to offer you a bit of advice. A lot of people don't like thier in-laws and that's fine... But I really wouldn't recommend broadcasting it on national television if you can help it. It may not improve the situation as much as you had hoped.

Running Low

As the long-running Yankees - Red Sox rivalry nears the end of its 104th season, the popular feud once provided fans with emotionally charged drama, larger-than-life heroes and villains, and compelling subplots woven throughout its story.

The Red Sox - Yankees rivalry seems to be running really really low on some good storylines. The last series could only offer those who tuned in, a series of five baseball contests between two American League East teams vying for first place.

The first 100 seasons of the rivalry were carefully crafted to build toward one defining moment, which occurred in the 2004 AL finale when the luckless but lovable Red Sox finally defeated the rich, cocky but undeniably talented Yankees in the ALCS before winning the World Series and ending the "Curse Of The Bambino" story thread that was written into the series in back in the early years.

Experts, however, suggest that since that moment, the rivalry has struggled to regain the dramatic tension and conflict that was once inevitable to meetings between the two teams.

Sensing that things needed to be shaken up, the Yankees brought veteran Bobby Abreu onto the cast as a midseason replacement for right-fielder Gary Sheffield. However, while Sheffield was a central figure in many conflicts—including the 2004 episode in which he took a swing at a Red Sox fan in the right-field bleachers—the most noteworthy thing Abreu has done in his stint with the Yankees is double home the go-ahead run in last Monday's victory.

Fans have called for increased production of serviceable storylines, saying they don't want their last memory of the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry to be the May 2006 incident in which Doug Mirabelli was escorted to Fenway Park by a Boston police car 14 minutes before game time so that the newly acquired backup catcher could make his Red Sox return and prevent passed balls during the first seven innings of a Tim Wakefield start.

I'm not a fan of either ball club but I do, like most genuine red blooded Americans love a good rivalry. I feel like I've been waiting for some sort of disputed play at the plate, a fistfight maybe, bench-clearing brawl, some pot head causing a scene on the field, overturned home-run ruling, bad managerial decision, heroic walk-off hit by a virtually unknown role player, blood, just anything.

"The Boomer"

"Luke.... Matt Leinart knocked-up your mother!"

I can just picture Chris Farley saying that into the fan now imitating Darth Vader on Star Wars, enter Tommy Boy. But as for those of you who can't quite picture that, or are terrified at the very thought, get used to it. According to sources Matt Leinart is going to be the proud papa of a kid with USC women's basketball player Brynn Cameron. Brynn will most likely redshirt this season (she is a junior) while Matt is off partying with Paris, um... I mean, playing football for the Cardinals.

Matt, who has been seen in numerous pictures on the internet with many different women lately (including leaving Hilton's home early one morning), was unavailable to comment to "Boomer Bear" mainly because I wouldn't know how the hell to contact him to get a statement.

We did find a statement from his rep regarding the Matt Leinart Foundation where he said "kids are important to Matt." Apparently they are so important that he didn't want his kid to miss his rookie year with the Cardinals.

"Hey Matt, what if it's a girl instead of a boy? Then who will you take out and drink and whore yourself around with? Oh yeah. Sorry, I forgot... Paris Hilton."

Unfortunately Matt should have learned from the National Championship Game against Texas that Trojans aren't always 100% effective in the clutch.

On another note, if Leinart has any more illegitimate children expect him to go #1 in the next NBA Draft.

Here's to Leinart, a great role model for his soon-to-be-kid,

Unlawful Entry

This article is not to debate whether illegal immigration is right or wrong. Unless you are a bleeding-heart liberal hopefully you can obviously see the negative impact illegal immigration has on all of us (at least those that pay their taxes).


In case you are unsure however, let me share these stats with you I came across the other day:

- In your working lifetime you will spend just over $90,000 out of your paycheck to pay for services granted to illegal immigrants.

- If you take that same $90,000 and put it in an AVERAGE investment, it will increase to $600,000 during that same period. This is money that you could have put away for your kids college or retirement.

If you still can't make up your mind, migrate south of the border and do both countries a favor.

The Feminist Dilemma

This story is an addition to the article recently posted on Deadspin.

For those of you who don't know the story apparently (according to Deadspin) the woman on the far left, Danika Schroeter, finished in second place to the one in the middle, Michelle Dumaresq, in the Canadian downhill mountain biking championships. Dumaresq is also the three time defending champion.

So who really cares, right? Well, I did leave out one piece of information... Michelle Dumaresq was formerly a man (and not in the "previous life" way either). This frustration led to the tasteless t-shirt that Danika Schroeter's boyfriend made for her that she is wearing in the photo. The shirt provoked the audience to join in with derogatory remarks and finally to Schroeter's three month suspension by the Canadian Cycling Association for such a classless act.

But here is what I was wondering... What would a feminist think? I know, I don't really care either but it is always humorous to think of them speechless and I may have such a situation here.

In defense of Dumaresq: I figured they might say that despite her previous manhood, she is now a woman (I figure post-op) and should be able to have the rights of all women. They might add that Dumaresq has now reached the peak of enlightenment becoming the "better sex" and should be able to be who she wants without any discrimination or ridicule. And for good measure they hopefully would add (if not for my humor alone), "She is Dumaresq, hear her roar!"

But then there would be Dumaresq's opponents as well. Their argument would be easy also: Dumaresq has been, still is, and always will be a man (despite the depth of the current circumcision). They could point out that Dumaresq is just another example of a man trying to infringe on woman's rights and take over their lives. And don't forget that they would probably even call Dumaresq a pervert, probably having the operation just to get closer to women.

So I can see this argument shaping up. I really think Fox should have this as a debate opposite "Desperate Housewives" and see which gets more ratings. I am sure we could find feminists who support each side, and don't forget, the bowl of popcorn to make it a true theatrical performance. And while they are at it they could answer another age old question that plagues me to this very day: If a man talks in the woods, and there isn't a feminist around to hear him, is he still wrong? Especially if this man is now a woman...

So I heard that they caught Warren Steed Jeffs, that sicko polygamist on the FBI's 10 Most Wanted list. The guy is supposed to have something like 10,000 followers. I have heard stories about this guy and honestly he disturbs me as much as John Mark Karr. I hope he gets put away for a long time.

Despite my Redsox falling ever so deeply out of contention there is still a light at the end of the tunnel. And no matter how dark things ever seem this light will be there to guide all of us along the path. That light: Knowing that the Yankees have, do, and always will suck. For those of us Redsox fans out there still hanging on to hope, I feel for you but I do have to officially call the time of death for Boston as yesterday when David Ortiz left the team with an irregular heartbeat. Hopefully though, these pictures can bring comfort and the reminder that regardless of the record or payroll, the will always Yankees suck!

If you have a problem with this post, all I gotta say is "NC,"

"The Bear"

It just keeps getting more dramatic!

I am sure you have heard by now about the Cowboys chump-change fine on Terrell Owens for missing the team meeting and rehab assignment. “It’s about time they started doing something,” I told former Southern Miss football player and one of Boomer Bear’s insiders. “Yeah,” he replied. And then the conversation took an unexpected turn, one that the Cowboys themselves most likely are not aware of. Below is an excerpt of that conversation:


Insider: I know how he probably hurt his hamstring in the first place

The Bear: How?

Insider: I was working out late one night about 2-3 days before they started mini camp and he and one of his buddies were in the gym playing basketball and I saw them

The Bear: Where?

Insider: 24 HR off of Royal and 75 (Dallas, TX)

The Bear: Hmmmm…

Insider: I’m sure there is a stipulation in his contract that would void it all together if he did stupid stuff like that

The Bear: Are you sure it was him? Why didn’t you go talk to him?

Insider: Hell Yes! I’m sure it was him. There aren’t too many 6-3 or 6-4 RIPPED black dudes that walk into 24 with a posse.

The Bear: Did you see him get hurt?

Insider: He had a Cowboys hat on pulled down low to try and hide his face a little. No, he wasn’t hurt or anything. He was walking a little gimpy when he left though.

The Bear: Why didn’t you to talk to him?

Insider: I looked him right in the eye. I didn’t say anything, but I looked at him in a way that I let him know I knew who he was. He's too much of a prick. If I had said “hey, what up?” he would have kept on walking. I was gonna wait till he walked outside and see what he was driving to totally confirm but I didn’t.

The Bear: But you are say 50% sure it was him? 60%? 100%?

Insider: A full 100%

The Bear: Good enough for me

Insider: No doubts what so ever


That’s right folks. It seems like Mr. Owens hurt himself in the hopes of hoop dreams. That definitely would explain why he showed up to camp hurt and couldn’t play from the onset. I wonder if that is why he missed “optional workouts” with the team earlier this summer. He claimed he wanted to “work out with his people” but I don’t think the Cowboy’s realized that meant shooting hoops with his gang. And yes, I am pretty sure that injury could void out his contract and let the Cowboys move forward with still a great team. As I am sure this thing will keep getting bigger and blowing way the hell up, stay tuned for scenes….

I’m out. T.O. is meeting us all at the playground to play “smear the queer,”

"The Bear"

T.O. play or not T.O. play? That is the Question!

So I admit it. I was wrong. I am sorry. Will you forgive me?

Yes I know, to the readers of my previous post on Terrell Owens, I take it all back. I was suckered into all the hype and the "this time will be different" speech. And maybe this time would be different, if T.O. would get his ass off the exercise bike and back out on the practice field. Of course, to get "back out there" I guess he would have had to be there to begin with.

Let’s start with the facts (and keep in mind we are still only half-way through the pre-season):

1 - Terrell skipped optional but "highly encouraged" workouts with the team and chose to work out with his own people. A move that has left him "injured" and not in football shape.

2 - Terrell made an ass out of himself, made his coach so furious he took off in the opposite direction, and his teammates very bitter about his Discovery Channel biking show-off day.

3 - I really do think Drew Rosenhaus is Satan.

4 - This will be Bill Parcells last year because of Terrell Owens and how Jerry Jones forced him on the team. Remember, Parcells has said himself that if he can't "shop for the groceries but has to cook" he is out. And he will be. I just wonder if he will make it through the season. I also hope they stay away from Weis as his replacement because he has such a good thing going at Notre Dame. Maybe Jones can bring Bob Stoops to the pros.

5 - Opening day this season will belong to Drew Bledsoe but all of '07 Tony Romo will be the starter.

After carefully considering the above, and realizing that the battle between T.O. and Parcells is about as fruitful as the war in Vietnam, I am just hiding in my bunker waiting for the real fireworks to start. Remember everyone, this is STILL pre-season of this first year in Dallas! It actually makes you miss the Cowboys SuperBowl winning teams of the early 90's who at least practiced and scored on the field (even if they did have a higher scoring percentage off it - enter drugs and women).

And Terrell, shut the hell up about your "hammy" and get back on the field! Until that happens (not holding my breath), maybe the Cowboys should cut Owens and bring in the receiving core from The Replacements. Or if we can't do that lets at least sit Bledsoe in favor of Shane Falco. He is more mobile and has a hellava lot more heart. Remember Gene Hackman's "We need heart" quote. It's quite relevant here. Maybe Falco could even remind T.O. of that life-giving principle that all athletes should live and abide by: "Pain heals, Chicks dig scars... Glory lasts for ever!" And if these Cowboys are planning on being like the SuperBowl winning Cowboys of the early 90's, I am sure they won't mind winning over the ladies. Until then, God help us all!

"Ah ha, hush that fuss

OutKast's Rosa Parks rolls through my mind as I write this. A great song, and even greater problem if you a certain Louisiana school's Superintendent, Kay Easley.

According to reports on Fox News, "when school started this month, the white [bus]driver told them she had assigned [the school children] seats, with the black children at the back of the bus. "The [nine] black students [were moved] to two seats in the back of the bus, an arrangement that had some of the smaller children sitting in the laps of older children."

Now call me crazy but shouldn't we be a bit past this in our history? Did anyone forget that "all men were created equal?" And for those who are not past it, you would think they would be at least a little less blatant about it. I am someone who hates when the race card is used most of the time, usually because it is over-used, but in this instance Kay Easley better send this bus driver to the back of the unemployment line. Everyone get your keys out and start shaking them like college football season is in full swing cause it's time for this driver to start up the bus and get the hell out of town.

Breaking News: Scientists decide Nascar's no longer a sport

After many arguments and debates, southern scientists meeting yesterday in Arkansas determined that Nascar is no longer an actual sport and stripped it of its "sports" status. Nascar came under a great debate of "sporthood" after people were trying to add other activities as un-athletic as Nascar (such as bowling, table-tennis, and the WNBA) to the list of current sports. "This has been a debate for quite a while but in the end we decided that if Pluto can be removed as a planet because it is insignificant, then Nascar should be removed as a sport because people with more than 2 degrees separation from the south don't care about it," Professor Plum said. "When it comes down to it" the professor added, "driving really fast in circles doesn't mean you are talented but just lost or drunk. We never should have ever made it a sport in the first place. If we could do it all over again, we definitely wouldn't have even considered it."

Opponents of the downgrade include TP-PETA (Trailer Park - People for the Ethical Treatment of Alabaman's) and their National Chairman (or Chairwoman if you are into that whole PC thing) Tonya Harding. "We are outraged at this new development," says Harding. "Nascar is as much as a sport to us as golf is to the upper-class." Unfortunately for Harding, she didn't realize that the scientists never actually considered golf a sport (sorry, Tiger) and therefore her point was irrelevant.


Nascar's origins came from a postgame tail-gate party back in the day. After an Alabama-Auburn game, the locals who had too much to drink, decided that if they got in cars and drove real fast it would take away the sting of another tie game (There are 2 things to note here: 1) Yes boys and girls, back when I grew up they had no overtimes in college football so games actually ended in a tie... 2) Since a tie game is like "kissing your sister" one would assume that Alabama-Auburn fans would be excited that they both get to go home winners!). But just to add a little more excitement to that kiss, they decided to race around and the winner's team could claim victory for that year (I think the race was from the Ol' Johnson's outhouse to the Gretchen's Family Store. First one to touch the spittoon won).

After reviewing these findings (and the Alabama-Auburn tailgate picture posted above), scientists wondered what the hell they were thinking in the first place naming Nascar a sport and immediately reversed their decision. The ruling is expected to be appealed in the local court house (I think it's the one with the confederate flag over it) sometime early next year. Stay tuned for the latest on this breaking development.

USC Ready for Shot at Historic Four-Peat

With less than two weeks until USC opens its 2006 season against Arkansas, head coach Pete Carroll has his players ready to take full advantage of the unique opportunity in front of them: becoming the first team in college football history to win four consecutive national titles.

“All of the players and coaches are on the same page. We want this bad,” said Carroll. “Sure, some people doubt we can do it. They say we weren’t actually the official national champions in 2003. And that we didn’t even win a title last year. But that’s the kind of negative talk you have to push aside when you’re going for history. We have to stay positive and unified.”

Carroll said he is using the same motivational techniques he did last year when USC went after a highly-publicized three-peat that included a trip to the BCS title game against Texas.

“We had a lot of players on that team who had already tasted so much success – Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, LenDale White – and we needed to create a little extra incentive for them,” said Carroll. “So I thought: ‘Hey, why not pretend we’ve won back-to-back championships and that we’re going for a third?’ Luckily, ESPN and the rest of the media went right along with it, and before we knew it our quest for a three-peat was the biggest story of the college football season. It was awesome. I even started to believe we were going for three in a row after a while.”

But while deep inside Carroll knows he only has a single national championship in his tenure at USC, his players and coaches honestly believe the Trojans could win four in a row this year.

“Yeah, it’s pretty funny. They have no idea that LSU won the BCS title in 2003, not us. And they’re in complete denial that we lost to Texas last year,” said Carroll. “After we got exposed in that game Matt Leinart said he still thought we were the better team. The adorable part is, these guys think that believing you’re the best is same as winning a national championship. And who am I to crush their hopes? Plus, pretending we’ve won back-to-back-to-back championships is great for recruiting. Kids will believe anything you tell them.”

Carroll says the most important part in winning a record fourth consecutive title won’t be determined so much by the performance of his team on the field as it will be by getting the media onboard with the USC hype machine again.

“As long as enough people believe something is true, it becomes true,” said Carroll. “That’s what happened last year. We need it to happen again.”

And luckily for Carroll, he’s already getting some to come over to his side.

“Take away one last minute drive and USC is holding the trophy last year,” said college football analyst Lee Corso. “So let’s not split hairs here. They more or less won that game. I mean, you say tomato, I say tomato. You say USC only has one national title, I say they’re about to get four in a row. Let’s not go and ruin what could be a great story with facts.”

Please believe I hold the Trojans in the highest regards,

"Let's Roll"

Have you watched TV or listened to the radio and heard an outrageous report about a celebrity or wanna-be acting out that made you think "their parents must be so proud." It never ceases to amaze me how often that happens lately. It seems that constantly someone is pushing the limits of decency trying to make a buck or have their 15 minutes of fame. "If that was my kid I'd smack the hell out of em" and set em straight often comes into my mind. But what if it was the other way around. What if it was your parent making the scene and you were around having to deal with the backlash. Or what if you weren't? I am so freakin tired of hearing what the hell Cindy Sheehan has to say about the war and about her son. And honestly, I really am curious what he would say about the war if he was still here. How would he feel about his mom's pursuit for fame (don't let the liberals fool you with this innocent mom bs, she's been a media whore ever since she came on the scene). GW hasn't been spotless in this war by far but he has done one hell of a job considering what he has been up against. And I think her son, given the facts, would agree with that. But unfortunately we have to listen to Cindy stand in the gap for him and share the true message of the departed. Cindy, give it a rest. And GW, if you head back to Crawford and see her standing there with her protest blocking your way... well, in the immortal words of some true heroes, "Let's Roll."
