Ghana and skiing go together like peanuts and gum. Then again what do we know?

Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti on Ray Lewis

Were you disappointed in how Ray Lewis handled himself this offseason in regard to talking about other teams?

Bisciotti: No. It humored me.

How did it humor you?

Bisciotti: We already had an understanding of what he was doing. I wanted Ray to explore his options. So, when he came back, he was 100 percent comfortable that Ozzie had given him a legitimate contract. It didn’t bother me at all because Ray is one of the great self-marketers. I think he’s a brilliant guy. I would have been disappointed had he not done the best to try and generate interest from other teams. I was just amused.

No one wants anything to do with Jessica Simpson besides Tony Romo. Tiger Woods is attempting a comeback after being out of the game for a minute. The last thing he wants or needs is the aura of fail anywhere near him. Maybe that’s why he told Simpson to step when she asked for golfing lessons.

Simpson is apparently taking up the game to get closer to her man. Woods gave her the excuse of having to take care of his new baby. He was later seen hitting his left leg with a 7 iron and repeating that it wasn’t worth it. Rumor has it she’s now looking to have Happy Gilmore learn her a couple things about the golf but she’s having trouble finding him.

Most men prefer the natural method of drinking copious amounts of alcohol to prevent their boys from swimming. How often has the statement “I’d have to drink enough to down a wildebeest and then some before I do that” been heard before a poor decision is made later in the evening? These men also know that an excuse to get out of work or a pressing engagement to watch sports is just that. It’s an excuse and nothing more. It’s not supposed to be taken literally. Someone might want to send a newsletter out because some men are taking their March Madness excuses a bit too far.

A large group of men use the NCAA tournament as an excuse to get out of work. No problem. We’ve all been there. However some are also using the tournament as a foil for their vasectomies.

“I’m booked up,” said Dr. J. Stephen Jones, chairman of regional urology at the Cleveland Clinic’s Glickman Urological and Kidney Institute. “My schedule on that part of the month filled up very quickly. It filled up ahead of time.”

Scheduling the procedure to coincide with hoops hoopla makes perfect sense, says Jones, who has done more than 2,000 vasectomies.

Perfect sense? My idea of enjoying the NCAA tournament involves macrobrews and fried food. It doesn’t involve a frozen bag of peas on my balls. The Oregon Urology Institute is offering pizza and a bag of frozen peas as gifts for men that sign up for the snip during the tournament.

Don’t worry, boys. I’ll stop you the old-fashioned way with a case of Busch Light or Natty Bo.
