CBS Bans Boozing John Daly "Go Long or Go Home" Ad for Maxfli Golf Balls - The folks who make Maxfli golf balls thought it would be funny to have bigger-than-life pro golfer John "Rehab" Daly promote their product in a new TV commercial. One that featured him singing and drinking in a country bar interspersed with shots of him careering around a golf course in a cart with a beer and later hitting a tee shot off the top of a beer can. This, despite the fact that Big John has openly admitted to battling alcohol abuse throughout his professional golf career. Not surprisingly, the folks at CBS felt that the spot ". . . did not meet the standards of the CBS network," according spokeswoman LeslieAnn "No More Fun of Any Kind" Wade. (WABC) 
BONUS: We found the banned commercial! For a limited time you should be able to see it here.

Post Game Brawl Mars Little League Game - "See you after the game" used to be a friendly exchange between rival Little League players. Now, apparently, it means we need to find a place to brawl. At least 8 players aged 13 to 14 from two teams in the Highland, California league got into it after a player from one team made a comment to a player on another team during the game. They agreed to meet later and did. Who said sportsmanship is dead? (Highland News)

Scooter Race Incident Ends With Arrest of Gym Teacher - A Massachusetts middle school gym teacher (who just happens to be the husband of an elementary school principal in the same district) was arrested on charges of indecent assault on a person under 14 years old. According to the mother of the 11-year-old female victim, the incident happened during gym class back on April 12 while the students were having scooter relay races adding, “At one point, he went behind her to show her how to push (the scooter). He put his hands on her shoulders, then put his right hand down inside her shirt and held her right breast.” Why that's not proper scootering technique at all!

FBI Looking For Someone Who Really Hates College Cheerleaders - No, not us. We love college cheerleaders . . . especially when they're doing something naughty. Like that time when the ladies all dressed like like Catholic schoolgirls and--wait a minute what were we talking about? Oh yeah, the FBI is looking for a person who doesn't seem to like college cheerleaders, especially when the scantily clad ones are show on TV. In fact, they're offering a $5000 reward for information leading to their arrest! This angry individual has sent a series of pesticide-laden letters to the national networks and their local affiliates, as well as people associated with university athletic departments in Ohio, Michigan and Arizona starting in the Fall of 2006. One letter was particularly unhappy with the gals at Ohio State. It read, in part, "For the last 6 years, Ohio State cheerleaders have received more TV time than any other Division 1A cheer squad on ESPN, because they wear long sleeved red/white outfits. If they wore sleeveless outfits, they would not get ANY TV time. So, we are fed up with this constant exploitation." Wait, what? (CNN)

BadJocks Update: Former Cheerleading Coach/Principal's Wife Sentenced to Only 45 Days in Jail for Sex With Boy - Former cheerleading coach and teacher at Brighton Charter Academy Carrie McCandless, 29, plead guilty to three charges today and was sentenced to a whopping 45 days in jail. Her crimes? After all the talk, all she plead guilty to was tampering with physical evidence, contributing to the delinquency of a minor and unlawful sexual contact. This, after her 17-year-old victim, Tommy Clay, went on The Today Show last month and admitted that the pair had an ongoing relationship and that they had done everything but intercourse at an overnight school trip where she was supposed to be the chaperone . . . and at the same time she was married to the school principal. Wow, a whole 45 days? Bet we'll hardly recognize her when she gets out. Pamela Rogers is probably wishing she had done her teaching in Colorado instead of Tennessee now. (CBS4)

Detroit Area School District Has to Fire Cheerleading Coach Because She Already Has Full Time Job at School! Say what? We're not lawyers (thank God!) but the law that says that this beloved cheerleading coach will have to be fired because she already works full time for the district seems pretty stupid to us. Apparently, if she works more than the usual 40 hours as a teacher, she's supposed to get time and half in overtime. The Michigan school, John Glenn High School, can't afford to do that in the current budget situation, so now must fire Cheryl DeLuca after more than twenty years on the job. (Detroit News) 

Teacher's Aide/Assistant Girls Track Coach Arrested for Sex With 15-Year-Old - And it's not like he can claim he thought she was older. According to police, the girl claims that she and Jose Elizondo II, 20, had sex the first time about two months ago when they were in his bedroom watching movies and started kissing. The report goes on to say that the two discussed the girl's age, according to the victim, and that Elizondo told the girl it was wrong for them to have sex and asked her if she felt he was forcing her. So they allegedly had sex anyway. Then, just to make sure he wasn't forcing her, the girl also claims that a few weeks later Elizondo picked her up in a van and drove to a parking lot behind an apartment complex for their second time. How romantic! (NWI)

Colorado State Basketball Player Kicked Off Team After Pointing Loaded Gun at Teammate's Head, Firing Shot Into Innocent Sofa - Anger management, anyone? Xavier Kilby, 21, a 6-foot-8 forward for Colorado State University got into an argument with Ronnie Aguilar, 19, a 7-foot, 250-pound center from the team. How did they resolve their dispute? According to police, Kilby pulled out a small revolver and aimed it at Aguilar's head before firing a shot into a living room couch. Yeah. that'll upset a few people on campus after what happened at V Tech last week. (Denver Post)

Coach/City Councilman Arrested for DUI in City Vehicle on Beach - See if you can follow along with this one: Timothy Mancuso is an Atlantic City city councilman and wrestling coach at Holy Spirit High School. He, along with several friends, was at a gathering at O'Grady's Pub and Restaurant last Friday night for what was described as an informal celebration of the arrest of Jihad Q. Abdullah. You see, Mr. Abdullah, (who used to go by the name Ronald Callaway) was arrested that day on multiple charges of extortion and conspiracy in connection with the videotaping of another city Councilman, Eugene Robinson, while he appeared to pay for oral sex from a prostitute in November. Also arrested on that charge was Abdullah's brother, former City Council President Craig Callaway, who was already in the pokey on unrelated bribery charges. Early Saturday morning after the party, Mancuso was arrested for allegedly driving while intoxicated in a city-owned vehicle along the beach where cars aren't normally allowed.

Sexual Harassment Case Brought by New York Rangers Cheerleader Takes Strange Turn - Courtney Prince, a former skating cheerleader for the New York Rangers was suing the management at Madison Square Garden, claiming she was sexually harassed by arena execs. Instead, the hot shot lawyers for MSG have turned the tables on Ms. Prince, claiming she was the the one doing the sexual harassing . . . of other cheerleaders. (We'll give you a minute to wrap your head around that one.) According to papers filed in Manhattan Federal Court, attorneys for MSG claim Prince's behavior "is not surprising as she suffered from bipolar disorder, a classic symptom of which is hypersexuality." This all started after a Columbia University psychiatrist examined Prince last October and six fellow skaters filed affidavits who dispute her claim that an arena executive tried to talk her into a threesome at a West Village bar. Instead, they say that--we're not making this up!-- Prince "pretended to simulate sex on the ice during one practice and regularly coached skaters to appear more "f---able." She also grabbed other skaters' breasts and used explicit terms to describe their anatomy." We didn't go to law school, but it sounds to us like her case isn't going to well.

Another College Blames BadJocks for Forcing It to Restrict Students-Athletes From Using Social Networking Sites - Bob Reno made us do it! We seem to be getting lots of attention lately as various Minnesota-based universities are laying the blame for their new restrictions on student free speech at the feet of this site. Most recently, St. Cloud State University. Here's an excerpt from a slightly incoherent article in the University Chronicle:
According to SCSU athletic director Morris Kurtz, student-athletes can be viewed in a negative light on Web sites such as badjocks.com. The Web site, which glorifies athletes from high school to the professional ranks as well as cheerleaders misbehaving, claims to be "Where 'Cops' meets 'Sportscenter.'" For Web sites like these, social networks like Facebook and Myspace are a blessing in disguise. Athletes have been caught on these social networks misbehaving many ways, such as underage alcohol consumption.
