Top Ten Baywatch Beauties

In the life of Freddy, 1989-2001, 11 to 23-years old, there were remarkable changes year after year. From first crushes to first encounters with sex. First misdemeanors to first arrests. It was a ridiculous stream of new territories for me to endeavor through. But there were some things that I could always rely on. My dad, always there to help me through whatever it was I needed help with. My mom, always there to let me learn from the mistakes I was bound to make. And C.J., Jenna, Leigh, Jordan, April, Taylor, Jessie, Lani, Summer and Nelly were constants over those form able years as they'd run down the beach in their tight swimsuits with breasts-a-bouncin'. These are my favorite Baywatch Beauties.

10. Krista Allen

Krista played Jenna and was on the tail end of the Baywatch empires control of young men across the globe. She was a Baywatch: Hawaii babe and has also been in Liar, Liar and Anger Management. In her opinion: “I think there´s an innocence to me. Too often I´m the sexy vixen, and I just don´t see myself like that.” I beg of you, stay the sexy vixen.

9. Kelly Packard

She was April Giminski for seasons 8-9 on the show. She has appeared in the infomercials for Billy Blanks' "Billy Blanks Boot Camp". She is married and has a daughter. She is also a practicing member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Yeah, beside Baywatch, her acting career is pretty much non-existent.

8. Brooke Burns

This recently turned 30-year old (March 16) played Jessie Owens during season 9 of the show. She then had appearances on shows like: Ally McBeal, Just Shoot Me!, To Tell the Truth and Death to the Supermodels. She once had a husband named Julian McMahon and has a daughter named Madison. (Barnes, any relation?) She broke a bone in her neck after diving into the pool at her home and was rescued by her friend who is an ex-firefighter. Hey, hot woman who played a lifeguard on t.v., you're not supposed to dive into a pool that's only 4-feet deep. Some life guard you turned out to be.

7. Brande Roderick

She was cast for Baywatch as Leigh Dyer in 2000. She has been a girlfriend of The Man, Hugh Hefner, and named the 2001 Playmate of the Year. She has a Bollywood movie in her portfolio to go along with the four erotic films she made from '98-'99. Currently, she is married to Glen Cadrez, a former NFL linebacker for the Jets, Broncos and Chiefs and has a scorpion tattoo on her ankle and a rose on her belly.

6. Nicole Eggert

How well did little Jamie Powell grow up? Who's Jamie Powell you ask? Jamie was the eldest child that Scott Baio babysat for on the show Charles in Charge. Is it all coming back to ya? More importantly, this beauty played the role of Summer Quinn on, what else, Baywatch. She was once married to her Blown Away co-star Corey Haim, but this obvious mis-match ended 5 months later due to his on-going battle with drugs. Way to go Corey. Marry a smoking hot beauty and piss it away 'cause you like the "bugger sugar". Dip shit.

5. Traci Bingham

The sweet collection of African American, Italian and Native American blood brings us this beauty from Cambridge, Mass. This outspoken vegetarian/PETA member played Jordan Tate on the show. She's been in Playboy a number of times and has been in a number of Celeb Reality shows including, but not limited to: The Surreal Life and Celebrity Big Brother, where she may or may not have had relations with housemate Dennis Rodman.

4. Angelica Bridges

You may remember Angelica as Lieutenant Taylor Walsh from Baywatch? She makes the list because she loves playing sports (which ones? I have no clue, try to act like you really care), sleeping in a tent for two on camping trips and wearing Stiletto's. When she was a little girl: "“I just could not keep my clothes on. My mom would dress me up in a T-shirt and panties, and the minute I was out the door, the panties and the T-shirt would be in a pile on the front yard, and my little pink butt would be running down the gravel road to the neighbor boy´s house.” Oh how I wish I was that little neighbor boy.

3. Carmen Electra

Tara Leigh Patrick to her family, but Carmen to men everywhere around the world played Lani, has blossomed quite nicely since her days on MTV's Singled Out. She's been nude for Playboy and in some really bad movies (Mr. 3000, Date Movie, Hot Tamale and The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human.) She was married to "The Worm" Dennis Rodman for a while and had a brief affair with Tommy Lee after he and Pam divorced. She married Jane's Addiction front man Dave Navarro and, like every other celeb couple anymore, did a reality show about their life after the wedding. Bad move. Their divorce was finalized in February of 2007.

2. Gena Lee Nolin

This ex-Baywatch-er grew up on a farm in Minnesota. As a child she enjoyed ice fishing, volleyball, softball and men's basketball. She started her career in television as one of Barker's Beauties on The Price is Right. After she tired of the old man's ogles and pats on the fanny (I'm just guessing) she worked as Neely Capshaw on Baywatch. Her first marriage to David Feiler, lasted just 32-days. He then became a stalker and she needed to get a restraining order. Nice pick Gena, nice pick. Oh yeah, she has been placed on FHM's 100 Sexiest Women in the World list 6 times: '96-'98 and '01-'03.

1. Pamela Anderson
Like there was ever a doubt? Pam is, well, one of the hottest women in the galaxy. Hell, even the next couple of galaxies passed ours I'm sure. She is, with no doubt, the sexiest woman in North America. She was C.J. Parker on Baywatch and probably the only reason the show made it to its second season. She has been in countless television shows (Baywatch, Home Improvement, Stacked, V.I.P.), a couple really bad movies (Barb Wire, Naked Souls, Blonde and Blonder) and a couple of, how shall we say, really spectacular films (Tommy Lee home video and Bret Michaels home-made.) Even though you were Striparella, we still love ya.

Top Ten Chicago Mugshots

Ah, the mugshot. Perhaps nothing gives you a better insight into the minds of those who have crossed paths with the law at one point or another. Over the years, Chicago has witnessed quite a few of its local athletes engaging in acts that have earned them a night or two in the local slammer. So when Chicago Bears running back Cedric Benson's booking photo was splashed all over the city, the boys at TTCS thought it perfect timing for our Top Ten Chicago Mugshots list to debut.

10. Charles Oakley - Chicago Bulls

Despite a glaring resemblance to Baltimore Ravens tackle Jonathan Ogden, Big Oak looks like he has something up his sleeve here. Maybe it's because he knows Michael Jordan is on his way with a limo full of women to bail him out and head for Atlantic City.

9. Jim McMahon - Chicago Bears

The Punky QB looks a little like he's enjoying life a little too much since his playing days ended. While he may have led the Bears to a Super Bowl, he still played for the Packers, leaving him somewhere between ESPN's Rachel Nichols and Skip Bayless in my book of people I detest.

8. Albert Belle - Chicago White Sox

He deserved to be arrested after stealing all that money the Sox paid during his stay with the South Siders.

7. Tony LaRussa - White Sox Manager

Pssst....Hey Tony.
Opening your eyes as wide as humanly possible doesn't make you look any more sober. In fact, they probably thought you were on crack.

6. Dennis Rodman - Chicago Bulls

Rodman may be the only man on this planet who could possibly look normal in a mugshot.

5. Kendra Davis - Wife of Chicago Bulls former player Antonio Davis

Miss Naomi Campbell-lite here and Allen Iverson's mom probably are at the peak of female insanity. Put the two of them together and you have more spare parts upstairs than an erector set.

4. Ron Artest - Chicago Bulls

Any day now I see this guy walking onto a court with 'Redrum' shaved into the back of his head.

3. Tank Johnson - Chicago Bears

"Officer, I swear on everything there's no weed in this house. Do I look like someone that gets high?"

2. Alonzo Spellman - Chicago Bears

I've never seen someone so excited to go to jail. But don't let his charming good looks fool you. Big Zo and his multiple personalities could wipe the floor with your squad in a pickup basketball game.

1. Cedric Benson - Chicago Bears

Yup, I think that's exactly how I would look after boozing on a boat, being pepper sprayed, dragged to the ground and wrestled into the back of a squad car.

This man needs to be added to our list of guys we want to party with.

Top Ten Guys Who Could Have Placed The Infamous Blowup Doll in the Sox Locker Room

Who done it?

10. Juan Uribe

You know, just to take some attention off that monster .239 OPB.

9. Adam Archuleta

I hear he's got some extra time on his hands now.

8. Josh Fields

When Adam Russell gets called to majors instead of you, you have to find a way to keep yourself sane somehow.

7. Alexei Ramirez

Sure Alexi, “visa problems”.

6. Kyle Orton

Got drunk, confused.

5. Cedric Benson

He can’t seem to do anything right at this point.

4. Ozzie Guillen

Only a crazy person would do something so foolish and Ozzie, yeah, he’s kinda nutty.

3. Jim Thome

WordUpThome: GREAT GOOGLED MOOGLY WHAT A VIEW

2. Brian Anderson

We never thought these were the type of ‘honeys’ BA was always talking about, but in a world where Marvin Harrison can shoot a guy, anything is possible.

1. Nick Swisher

Come on, when this first came out, everyone thought the same thing: Swiiiiiisherrrrr!

Top Ten Chicago Mascots

My editor for the Cubs wrote a little piece on the Mascots in the Cubs minor league system in our Cubs blog and it spurred my interest in Chicago sports teams mascots. Thus, this is my tribute to the greatest mascots in Chicago...enjoy!

10. Grabowski
( stations.espn.go.com/.../ story?id=mascots)

Kind of a random mascot, Grabowski does work for Iron Mike and should be well versed in ass kicking.

9. Blue Demon
(http://www.jamd.com/search?assettype=g&assetid=56946539&text=blue+demons+mascot)

He is a Blue Demon...it is weird looking but he does look like a bad ass blue Jamaican hard ass.

8. Southpaw

(homerderby.com/ archives/1003)

Not quite sure why the White Sox allowed this thing to roam their field but that is the south side for you.

7. Lou Wolf

(hoopedia.nba.com)

The first Wolf on the list...but this wolf ain't got skates...no balls!

6. Sparky the Firedog

(home.att.net/ ~hattrick-dals/)

Kind of a lame mascot, but it does fit the lameness of the soccer team.

5. The Sky Guy

(basketballfusion.com/)

He looks a lot like a Beer Drinking Simpson's character. Hey whatever puts seats in the empty building.

4. Tommy Hawk
( stations.espn.go.com/.../ story?id=mascots)

He has a sick look and probably could whoop your ass. Tommy's the man.

3. Skates
(www.dailyherald.com/.../ images/skates.JPG)

He can skate in a freagin' wolf suit...that is sick!

2. Staley Da Bear

(raymond.mlblogs.com)

He has "Da" as a middle name. That's cool.

1. Benny the Bull( bullsbrasil.wordpress.com)

Must be number one after DUI, drug charges and breaking a man's arm. Nobody can beat that.

Top Ten Michael Jordan Games

BY DANNY SHERIDAN

Trying to pick just 10 of Michael Jordan’s best games takes some time. Okay a lot of time. No two lists would be the same. Well, here goes and don’t worry, no games from his days with the Wizards are included.

10. 1993 NBA Finals vs. Phoenix Suns Game 4

Fans in the old Chicago Stadium had flashbacks to the 1987 version of Jordan on this night. Determined to bounce back from a triple overtime loss the previous game, Jordan put on a show, leaving Kevin Johnson, Dan Majerle and anyone else who tried to stop him in his dust. Giving the Bulls back control of the series, Jordan went for 56 points, trailing only Elgin Baylor for highest point total in a NBA Finals game. The Bulls would need every one of them, including Jordan’s three point play with 15 seconds left and his team nursing just a one-point lead. Best bud Charles Barkley could just look on in awe. Five days later, Jordan had his third straight championship.

9. 1995 Regular Season at New York Knicks

With only four games under his belt after coming back from retirement, Jordan still put on his customary Madison Square Garden show. Even the usually vicious New York fans, Spike Lee included, could only stand up and applaud. Forget the 55 points for a second. What most people remember is the game-winning assist to none other than Bill Wennington. Drawing three defenders in the lane, Jordan found a wide open Wennington for an easy dunk with only seconds to play in a tie ballgame. That basket perhaps even started the Wennington craze (McDonalds would later serve a Beef Wennington sandwich). Going from a scuffling minor league baseball player back to the national pastime in a few short weeks, Jordan proved he still knew how to take over a game. The fact he was guarded by nemesis John Starks for much of the night only made it that much sweeter.

8. 1988 NBA All-Star Game at Chicago

Flashback to the same game three years ago, Jordan’s rookie year. Supposedly, a few older players, mainly Isiah Thomas, Larry Bird, and Julius Erving, formed a plan to snub Jordan on the offensive end. Not on this night. In a season that saw Jordan average 35 points and win his first of many more MVP’s, the home-town fans were treated to quite a show by their hero. Down the stretch, his East teammates had apparently learned their lesson, as they were content to watch his airness go for 16 fourth quarter points on his way to 40 for the night, two off the all-time record set by Wilt Chamberlain. Starting alongside Thomas, Bird, Dominique Wilkins and Moses Malone, Jordan went 17 of 23 from the floor, also adding nine rebounds and five assists. Not even his triple double in the 1998 All-Star game could match this performance.

7. 1990 Regular Season at Cleveland Cavaliers

This just shows how incredible Jordan was. His highest scoring game comes in only 7^th on this list. All throughout his career, Jordan had a habit of terrorizing the Cavs, largely thanks to two men; Lenny Wilkins and Craig Ehlo. Wilkins would sit stubbornly on the bench and refuse to double team Jordan, while Ehlo had about the speed and quickness of your average high schooler. No wonder the Bulls knocked Cleveland out of the playoffs four different times in the late 80s/early 90s. The stats from this game will knock your socks off. Seemingly playing one-on-five, Jordan put in 69 points, 18 rebounds, and 7 assists. Afterwards Jordan, never one to rank his performances, said it had to be his best game ever. In his first year as head coach, Phil Jackson got just a taste of what was to come from his superstar. One year after “The Shot” (see below) Jordan managed to tear the hearts of Cleveland fans yet again.

6. 1992 NBA Finals vs. Portland Trail Blazers Game 1

Will anyone ever forget the shrug? How about the look of disbelief on Jordan’s face as he ran past Magic Johnson, who was broadcasting the game for NBC. Before this series started, people began chirping that maybe Clyde Drexler was closing the gap on Michael as the game’s most exciting player. Apparently, Michael heard the ridiculous talk, and as was his custom, played with a little something extra in his step. Just when sportswriters and commentators thought they had seen it all, MJ hit six three pointers in one 16 minute first half stretch, on his way to 35 points for the half. The famous expression came after his final trey. Running down the court with a horrified Danny Ainge lagging behind, Jordan couldn’t even believe his newfound three-point shooting. Never known as a three-point shooter, Jordan showed the only to defend him was a hope and a prayer. Oh yeah, the Bulls won by 33, setting the tone for a series they controlled throughout.

5. 1982 NCAA Championship Game vs. Georgetown

This is where the legend began. On a team with All-Americans James Worthy and Sam Perkins, Jordan was something of an afterthought as a freshman. Not one of the 60,000 people in New Orleans that night thought Jordan would take the last shot with Carolina trailing by one in the final minute. So why in the huddle did Dean Smith set up a play for Jordan to shoot from the corner? Perhaps he knew something the rest of the world would be finding out in the not-too distant future. With Patrick Ewing clogging the middle, Carolina swung it around the perimeter for a while, until Jordan finally released a 15-foot jumper from the left corner. You could argue the shot propelled his career in hitting pressure shots in big games. After a one point-win in possibly the best title game ever, Jordan went from getting cut by his varsity team three years ago to sitting on the cover of that week’s Sports Illustrated.

4. 1989 First Round at Cleveland Game 5

Remember that great commercial a while back when Jordan said “twenty six times I’ve been trusted to hit the game-winning shot and failed?” Unfortunately for Cleveland, this was not one of those times. How Jordan got free for a 15 footer off a sidelines inbounds play with only three seconds left remains a mystery. Perhaps Craig Ehlo and Lenny Wilkins thought Brad Sellers or Horace Grant would take the last shot. Make-or-break is an understatement. The teams traded leads nine times in the final three minutes. After Ehlo scored to put the Cavs up one, everyone knew where the ball was going. Michael’s hang time on his double pumped free throw line jumper became legendary, soon to be known as “The Shot.” His 44 points pushed the Bulls to the next round, where they eventually reached the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in the Jordan era. Taunted by Cavs fans for much of the night after guaranteeing his Bulls would win the series in 4, Jordan, as usual, had the last laugh. “Choke” just wasn’t in his vocabulary.

3. 1998 NBA Finals at Utah Game 6

Years later, Bryon Russell still contended Jordan got away with a huge push off. Of course, no one paid attention. It was also the perfect pose. Right after making the go-ahead shot that beautifully swished through the net, Jordan held his follow through for an extra few seconds, likely knowing this was his last game in a Bulls uniform. From the moment it left Jordan’s hands, everyone in the building knew it was good. Look at the circumstances if Jordan misses that shot. An inspired Jazz team had already won Game 5 in Chicago to get the series back to the rowdy Delta Center. If there had been a 7^th game in Utah, Karl Malone and company probably win, especially considering Scottie Pippen was nowhere near 100% after injuring his back. People will never forget Jordan freezing and admiring his work, but think about what led up to that. John Stockton nailed a clutch three to put Utah ahead 86-83 with 40 seconds remaining. Jordan responded with the best 40 second stretch in NBA history. First, a driving lay-in that took about five seconds, meaning the Bulls didn’t have to foul. On the other end, just as Malone was about to make his move in the post, Jordan came in from behind and swiped the ball away, setting the stage for the fitting way Jordan ended his Bulls career. On a night where Pippen barely played, Jordan scored 45 of his team’s 87 points, practically willing the Bulls to a sixth championship.

2. 1986 First Round at Boston Celtics Game 2

Larry Bird claimed afterwards, “That was God disguised as Michael Jordan.” To score 63 points at the Garden against one of the all-time great NBA squads was unheard of. Whether it was jumpers over Bird, drives to the hole through Kevin McHale and Robert Parish, you name it, Jordan did it. A stunned Boston crowd watched Jordan, coming off a severe foot injury that had sidelined him for 64 games that season, pour in 63 points on national television. Opposing players and coaches soon realized Jordan was the future of the league. If only he didn’t have to play with guys like Dave Corzine, Orlando Woolridge, and Kyle Macy. Anyway, the overmatched Bulls lost in double overtime, but that was irrelevant.

1. 1997 NBA Finals at Utah Jazz Game 5

Oh those sneaky room service cooks. Bad pizza from the night before had Jordan throwing up all day. Lying in bed until the team bus departed, it appeared Jordan was a no-go for this pivotal game. Utah was proving to be a formidable opponent, having won the last two games, and playing at home, had a ton of confidence. Barely able to slide on the No. 23 jersey, Jordan did in fact play, despite looking like he should have been hooked up to an IV. Forget about Willis Reed. Anyone who remembers this game recalls the image of Jordan falling into Scottie Pippen’s arms near the end. He somehow summoned the energy to score 38 big points, including 16 in the second quarter after Utah had sprinted out to a huge early lead. The clinching shot was a Jordan three-pointer that gave the Bulls a three-point cushion with 20 seconds left. Most men would have been in a hospital. Jordan is not most men.

Top Ten Reasons to join Bushwood. (Caddyshack)

I've been around for thirty years, 10,950 days, give 'er take a couple leap years. And I've heard too many fools trying to sing "Take me out to the ball game" at Wrigley. And I've seen far too many "I can't dance to save my ass" touch down celebrations. And again, too many of this, that or the other things at any sporting event to celebrate something that kids, since the age of six, have been doing for fun the entire lives.

But golf. The beautiful game that I've never played, beside a fist pump or somebody falling onto the shortly trimmed grass on hole 18 at Augusta after winning, there isn't too much craziness involved. That is, unless of course, your playing at Bushwood.


10. Outstanding Upkeep



Here at Bushwood, we prefer to play, in both game and life, in the cleanliest possible way. Each day, the swimming pool is drained, scrubbed and sanitized for you pleasure.


9. Great Relationships



Growing up, all young men need leaders, mentors even. At Bushwood, no matter what problem any young man may be having, there is always somebody that he can look to for guidance and assistance. If you will be hitting the links all day and have no time to spend with your son, there will be no problem with letting him share time with our personal assistant Ty.

8. World Wisdom



Where else can you find people that are so well traveled to help you with your game? Sure, Carl is just a grounds keeper, but the cat has seen and been through a lot and appears to have no problem with lending his knowledge to the youth of the club.

7. Dedication



Beside being so knowledgeable, Carl is also dedicated to making everybody's experience at Bushwood wonderful. Sure, he might get carried away from time to time and appear to be doing things that he should never be doing, but he does it all for the love of the game, baby.

6. Strong morals



And when you do join Bushwood, if there are ever any legal issues you need resolved, we have a lawyer ready and willing to assist you with your case.

5. Family atmosphere



Sometimes you might not know what's going on in your life, much like Ty, but hey, everybody has bad days. As a member, all other members are your family and can be relied upon for anything.

4. Fun environment



It is indeed a fun atmosphere, but remember to be safe. Just because you're playing the gentleman's game, doesn't mean you should not be prepared for anything, and or, everything at all times.

3. Friendly people



It's a very open and friendly golf community, Bushwood is. A place where doors are left open for everybody and "what's mine is yours and what's yours is mine" does indeed apply. If you need something, ask. If we've got it, we'll give it. No questions asked.

2. Strong course up-keep



Bushwood prides itself in its beautiful courses. We keep for them beautiful year round for your playing experience. If there is anything, we mean ANYTHING, that can be done to contribute to a better playing community, let us know and it shall be done. *There shall be no varmints at Bushwood.

1. Fulfill your dreams





After you've played a round or a dozen, and your game has significantly improved, who's to say that it wont be you that wins the Master's next year.
