Friday Blogdome: Beatriz Recari has a crush on our own Weed Against Speed

Mar 19, 2010, 4:00 PM EDT

Of course you know that Weed Against Speed, who is the author of the intrepid Sportress of Blogitude, is also our weekend editor at Out of Bounds. So it is with special delight that I present the story below.

Beatriz Recari Likes Me, She Really Likes Me! A couple of days ago, I (with my tongue firmly planted in cheek, of course) took all the credit for the lovely Beatriz Recari qualifying for the Mojo 6 golf tournament after she won the online vote which gave her the coveted 16th and final spot. Obviously, I didn’t expect anything in return for my efforts, which at its core was simply a case of creepy internet pseudo-stalking. As I’m sure you agree, Beatriz is a gorgeous and talented golfer and I was only doing my part to increase her profile.
But guess what just happened to land in my inbox this morning? An e-mail from Bea’s agent with a link to a video Bea prepared specifically for little old me thanking me for my support. How awesome is that? It certainly made me smile. [Sportress of Blogitude]
More fun stuff following the jump.


* NY Police Looking for Suspect With Black Hair, Brown Eyes, and a Nasty Cutter. Calm down Yankee fans. I’m pretty sure that, despite the eerie resemblance, that’s not your beloved Mariano Rivera. First off, Rivera’s a tad taller than 5′6″, and I believe his eyes are more ochre than brown. [The Last Angry Fan]
* VIDEO: High School Pitcher In A Coma, It’s Serious. The kid’s been in a medically-induced coma since Monday after getting hit with a line drive estimated to be going 100 mph off an aluminum composite bat. His teammates are trying to play the rest of the season with wooden bats, and already did that in one game. There’s also talk of banning aluminum bats and requiring face masks. [7th Inning Stache]
* A New Standard In Ceremonial First Pitch Attire. Remember when Mariah Carey threw out a first pitch before a Yomiuri Giants/Rakuten Golden Eagles game in Japan back in May 2008? She’s got nothing on this girl. Say hello to Eve Torres — the 2007 WWE Diva Search winner. [Bugs & Cranks]
* Sitcomology, first round — Fox Region. The voting begins now! We begin in the Fox region with Dinosaurs the hot pick to be the first ever 16 seed ever to win in a Sparty & Friends Tournament. They killed the family in the last episode, how many sitcoms go out like that?!? [Sparty and Friends]
