On the same day it was announced that the LPGA told its foreign golfers on the tour to speak English or die and a nine year old kid was told he can’t play baseball because he is too good, Jason Kidd spurned Nike and signed with a Chinese company named Peak.
Way to embrace communism Jason. Kidd isn’t the first American player to sign with Peak apparently Shane Battier has also turned commie red into American dollar green.
If you notice the shoes look like knock offs of models that And1 and Adidas offer.

For more on Kidd’s breakup with Nike, visit Kenlu.net (if you can read Chinese or just want to see pictures of the new shoes).

The Yankees are all but dead when the post season is concerned so some of them are doing what Mickey Mantle did: drink a lot when not playing.
According to the New York Post Jason Giambi (former porn-tache supporter) & Joba Chamberlain were drowning their sorrows in some dump when a table of fans challenged them to a game of “Beer Pong.”
“IT would be tough for average Joes to beat a couple of Yankees at baseball, but slamming them in a game of beer pong was no sweat. Last week, Jason Giambi and Joba Chamberlain were celebrating their win against the Kansas City Royals at Southern Hospitality, on Second Avenue, when a table of fans challenged them to a game of the college drinking sport. Our spy said, “The fans gave them a beating. Toward the end Chamberlain and Giambi got really competitive, but it wasn’t enough.”
The last line might signify the entire for the Yankees. They got competitive but it wasn’t enough. Trust me I’m not shedding a tear.
