Thursday Blogdome: A Children's Guide to the Jenna Brown-Kenny Chesney story

* Chesney Is Single, Brown Hasn’t Met Ex-Girlfriend. Today a source close to Brown told me that the ESPN reporter has never met Amy Colley and that Chesney is single. From the source: “Jenn and Kenny have been friends for a long time and neither of them are in a relationship. Jenn has never met his ex-girlfriend Amy and if she thought he had a girlfriend, Jenn would never have gone away with him. They are just casually dating and getting to know each other better.” In other words, doing what adults do. [SportsbyBrooks]
* Deranged Photoshop Enthusiast Makes Frankenasian Bobblehead. Sometimes you just have to stare in disbelief and copy the embed tag. Artmorphs, the YouTube user who brought you All Time Lakers Centers ArtMorph, is back with his own patented brand of racial profiling, creepy God complex and cheesy synth music. Today’s test cadavers are Hideki Matsui, Ichiro Suzuko, Hideo Nomo and Daisuke Matzusaka. I’d say “Please To Enjoy” but by the time you get to the (SPOILER ALERT) animation at the end, enjoying all of this becomes kind of difficult. Just try and keep it together, man. [Walkoff Walk]

* The Padres don’t want any part of this Petco Park soccer match. If Heath Ball and his San Diego Padres teammates had their druthers, they’d be giving the boot to a soccer match scheduled for Petco Park on Sept. 15. Here’s what Heath Bell had to say about the “asinine” idea to the San Diego Union-Tribune: “Let’s see, they held a concert during Comic-Con (in late July) and killed the grass in left. OK, so let’s go to a soccer match. We’re in a pennant race. Much of the nation will probably be seeing us for the first time. Shouldn’t we be trying to put our best foot forward?” [Big League Stew]
* Dorothy Davidson Shops For Another Endorsement. I’m thinking she might’ve overreacted. [SportsbyBrooks]
* Also: David Beckham wants me to back England’s bid for the 2018 World Cup. Since Prince Charles could be King Charles by then, I’m hesitating to commit … What if Ricky Williams was the Phillies’ center fielder? You may say I’m a dreamer … OK, this made me laugh.
