Welcome to THE WEEKLY JOCK-SCRAP: a collection of pics and videos from around TheJockosphere. Throughout the week, I'll be rounding up the best-of-the-best, the strangest-of-the-strange (and sometimes the worst-of-the-worst) to create a weekly "Jock Scrapbook" (now the name makes sense, right?) of the bits and pieces that your favorite, and not-so-favorite, athletes shared throughout the week.
If you spot something that we should Jock-Scrap, please send it to me at: Dan@TheJockosphere.com (and if your submission is included, we'll send you our thanks — and we can both wish I could send you something cool like an iPod, instead).
For our first ever post in the series, we start off with some of the good things that athletes do:
It's not often we hear about the charity work and the time stars spend giving back to the community. But so many of them do. And it really does make a difference. Even something as simple as a visit to a hospital dedicated to helping children with life-threatening diseases.
This week Reggie Bush took some time to visit St. Jude Children's Cancer Research Hospital in Memphis, TN, where he made a new friend, Anna.
Not all of the pics posted around TheJockosphere are give ya that warm fuzzy feeling. Some are just outright strange.
For instance, this picture from Carolina Panthers kicker, Rhys Lloyd where he's apparently shopping in the lingerie section of Target for new sunglasses. (click for bigger image)
Ocho Cinco introduces us to the Ocho Cinquettes, does a little J-Lo and Mark Anthony name dropping, and treats us to a nice view of the black eye Ray Lewis gave him with this hit.
Olympic gold medalist, and new pop starlette, Carly Patterson shows us how the people at LSU tailgate. Gator anyone?
Finally, we end the week in review with the not so smooth song stylings (and self-deprecating video) that New Orleans Hornets rookie, Darren Collison, posted on his blog.
I know some of u have been laughing at my "single ladies" video from fan day that my teammates made me do...hopefully Beyonce wasn't offended by my rendition, but I do know I better stick 2 my day job lol!!!
Good lord... Who let Bush hold those kids? He's either gonna drop them, or fall backwards while carrying them.
I'm surprised Lopez didn't blender those kids and shove them in her butt or lips.
Collison raps pretty badly, but he's still better than all the white people in that gym combined.
