Funniest sports stories

There are a lot of funny sports stories but I have two nominees for the
funniest I have ever heard.

Second place:

The Cowboys were set to play the Steelers in the Super Bowl and this Cowboy
named Hollywood Henderson opined that Terry Bradshaw was so dumb that he
could not spell cat if you spotted him the c and the a.
So the Steelers won and Terry Bradshaw told the press "go ask Hollywood
Henderson how smart I am now?"

First place:

There was some guy named Rory Sabbatini who decided to talk some trash on
Tiger Woods. "The funny thing is, after watching him play last Sunday, I
think he is more beatable than ever. I think there's a few fortuitous
occasions out there that really changed the round for him at Wachovia. And
realising that gives me even more confidence to go in and play with him on
Sunday again"

Go right on, Sport. If you even make the cut play him on Sunday and remind
him how bad he sucks. That should work out real well for you.

The honorary mention is some golf story from like the 1920's or 1930's or
something like that. Two guys finish this major tied so they have to play
eighteen more on Monday. So the one guy is at the nineteenth hole pounding
down some adult beverages in the wee hours when a reporter tells him that
the other guy is in bed. The golfer says "he may be in bed, but he ain't
sleeping". The inference is that the other guy was worrying about having to
play him.

No matter what, the Rory Sabbatini badmouthing of Tiger Woods may be the
funniest thing I have ever heard in any sport.

And the baddest man I ever heard about in any sport was not Earl Campbell or
Willie Mays or Michael Jordan or anybody like that. The baddest man was
Junior Johnson. One time Junior Johson took a mind that Ford should get back
into NASCAR. So Junior Johnson said "Ford, get back into NASCAR" and they
did. Ford's next best option would have been not to listen to Junior
Johnson and they did not want no part of that.

And second place in that category goes to Art Shell. Art Shell was a
lineman on the Raiders and one time this guy hits the quarterback late. So
Art Shell picks the guy up so that his feet are not on the grass anymore and
says "don't do that again".

No, actually the funniest sports story is, the '07 NE Patriots filing
for two trademark applications "19-0$B!m(B and "19-0 The Perfect Season"
only to get their asses handed to them in the SB.

The New England Patriots - the only team in NFL history to go 18-1 and
LOSE the SB.

Michael Strahan said it best

That was one close Super Bowl there. Maybe the Patriots can amend their
slogan to 19-0 with a minute to go.

When to Dolphins went 14-0 how many regular season games did they win before
and after that? I wonder if the Patriots have a all time regular season
winning streak or if they have a ways to go yet? Or maybe nobody cares
because the NFL is all about winning the last game.

Not sure about the '72 Dolphins. I know they won their first game in
'73 and lost their 2nd.

The Pats won 21 consecutive regular season games a couple of seasons
ago.

I received an email yesterday that wanted me to open a Greek
language pack although everything was in English.

Weird coincidence..
