The Kansas City Chiefs have a code of conduct for fans. One of the acts not permitted: standing. Enforcing the policy is sure to get a rise out of people.
The Buzz would suggest staging a sit-in, but that particular protest might miss the point.
Striking difference
Is there a doctor in the house? Oh, he's in the octagon pummeling someone, causing pain instead of treating it. (Guess he took a hypocrite oath.) Mixed martial artist Seth Kleinbeck is also a practicing physician, putting the "pin" in "second opinion."
Don't bother suing Christian Wellisch if he roughs you up in the ring. By day, he's an attorney, so fighting the law is futile. Those are some odd vocation combinations, but the Buzz figures a comedian/combatant would be the strangest blend. If effective, they'll leave you in stitches in both jobs.
The Italian job(less)
On Tuesday, NASCAR team owner Chip Ganassi shut down the No. 40 crew, featuring driver Dario Franchitti, due to a lack of sponsorship. There are at least two companies he should have courted: WD-40 and Chips Ahoy! Ganassi said he lost sleep over the decision, but the Buzz bets he managed to get forty winks.
You've got male
Organizers of an erotic film festival in Barcelona had a reel problem luring men to the three-day event held at the end of June because the target audience was more interested in Spain's run in the Euro 2008 soccer tournament.
Instead of the expected crowd of 50,000, the turnout was closer to 15,000. Director Juli Simon admitted, "Football is one of the few things that can compete with sex."
That's the naked truth.
A cut above
The Buzz finds it funny that the man with the best beard in the NBA, Baron Davis - sorry, Peja Stojakovic - signed with the Clippers.
The team must've offered him a contract with all the trimmings.
Stellar simile
Move over, Stephen Hawking.
Warren Sapp, through on the playing fields of the NFL, is focusing on gravitational fields, defining his tenure with the Raiders as "dark as a black hole" to the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times. Sounds like Sapp and Al Davis, who's universally disliked, need a solar system's worth of space.
No gut, no glory
After watching the stomach stuffing spectacle of Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4, The Buzz wonders:
Is there anything more American than gluttony?
Singled out
On a D.C. radio show, World Team Tennis player Justin Gimelstob lobbed loathing at Anna Kournikova, remarking, "Hate's a very strong word. I just despise her to the maximum level - right below hate."
Who knew he harbored such feelings of Anna-mosity?
