Anyone Wanna Play?
For those of us in the basketball and bible study crowd, here's the next quirky sport: chess boxing.
Apparently, the sport is played by alternating the game of chess and the sport of boxing. There are six rounds of chess, each lasting four minutes, and five of boxing, each lasting two minutes. The rounds take place alternately, beginning and ending with chess, with one-minute intervals. You can win either by a knockout in the ring or checkmate on the board.
Yup, good times.

In other news, Priest Holmes just suffered his annual season-ending injury, meaning that my investment in Larry Johnson is *finally* going to pay off.
Yay for fantasy sports.
