Call them what you want, small people, dwarfs, or my personal favorite, midgets, but that group of people now has a new hero - Khagendra Thapa Magar...
Magar is an 18-year-old man from Nepal who stands 22 inches and weighs 10 pounds!!!...now that he reached adulthood, he is looking to cash in on his fame by being recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records...once he is recognized, he plans to travel to Japan and America to start making money...
He is also eager to get set-up in a pre-arranged marriage and start knocking out kids...supposedly his dad is working on an arrangement with another Nepal woman who is also kinda short...
Magar is part of a dance troupe...besides dancing, he enjoys, “playing with pebbles” and “worshipping Buddha”...I am not making this up...this dude wants some putang then chill out with some pebbles...
Former WWF legend Captain Lou Albano died on October 14th...the following was reported by CNN:
Legendary wrestling figure Captain Lou Albano, perhaps best known for his association with pop singer Cyndi Lauper, died Wednesday, according to World Wrestling Entertainment. Albano, 76, was "one of the company's most popular and charismatic legends," the company said in a statement. The cause of death was not immediately disclosed.
"Albano began his storied career with Vincent J. McMahon in the 1960s as one half of 'The Sicilians' tag team with his partner Tony Altimore," the WWE said. "He will be greatly missed by the WWE and his fans."
Albano, who was with the WWE from 1983 to 1996, was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 1996.
He started as a tag team wrestler in the 1950s but became a successful manager of champion wrestlers in the 1970s, according to a biography on the WWE Web site. Albano was recognizable by his penchant for unbuttoned Hawaiian shirts and a trademark beard, which was usually bound by a rubber band.
His persona earned him the distinction of "one of the most hated men" in wrestling for 15 years, the WWE biography said.
Albano's image evolved in the 1980s, when he teamed with Lauper on several music videos, such as "Girls Just Want to Have Fun," and wrestling appearances. As his celebrity status grew, Albano landed acting jobs, including a role on several episodes of the "Miami Vice" TV series, the biography said.
Albano became a cartoon in 1989, when he was the voice of Mario "Jumpman" Mario for 17 episodes of "The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!" according to the Internet Movie Database.
Philadelphia vs. Los Angeles These two meet again...last season the Phillies beat the Dodgers in five games...however, there biggest difference between the two teams, the Dodgers have the home field advantage this time...
During the regular season, Los Angeles took the season series 4-3 from the Phillies...they last matched up in June, so some things have changed, especially with the Phillies getting Cliff Lee...statistically, the Dodgers have the better numbers as they have a .270 team batting average and 3.41 ERA...the Phillies come in with a .258 team average and 4.16 ERA...
I am not getting into a breakdown of each position...somehow the Dodgers keep winning despite having a scrappy starting rotation...Randy Wolf as your Game 1 starter???...
To me, the Phillies do not have the luxury of a hot Cole Hamels and Brad Lidge...last season both pitchers were "in the zone" and just dominated opponents...I don't see that from either pitcher...Hamels could be beaten and we all know that Lidge is a headcase...
Despite these concerns, I just can't see the Phillies losing with that powerful lineup of Rollins, Victorino, Utley, Howard, and Werth...I look for the Phillies to win this in six games...
Also, don't forget about the brushbacks from last year's series...it all started when Brett Meyers hit Manny Ramirez in Game 2...below is a 1:00 clip of the incident...
- Bills owner Ralph Wilson has every right to fire head coach Dick Jauron right now...how can the Bills lose to the Cleveland Browns 6-3???...Derek Anderson completed only 2 passes the entire game -- ONE, TWO - that's all...the Bills have been underachieving all year...
- I don't know how the Browns or their fans could celebrate a 6-3 win when your quarterback completed only two passes...I could understand if there was inclimate weather but this performance for a so-called "professional" quarterback is disgusting...
- Whatever happened to former Bengals and Bucs head coach Sam Wyche?...
- The officials were sure protecting Peyton Manning on Sunday night on the drive before half...two roughing the quarterbacks calls helped the Colts put the game away...
- Enough picking on Bill Belichick...he made a very concerted effort to shake Josh McDaniel's hand after the game...a few years back Belichick blew off Eric Mangini and got ripped for it...did anyone ever thing that maybe Mangini is a jerk and Belichick could have cared less?...
- I love the Coors Light commercials with Romeo Crennel...
- Tom Brady is lacking something this year...
- The Falcons Roddy White scored on a 90-yard touchdown reception but then received a 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty after he did a backflip in the end zone...when will these knuckleheads learn that they are hurting their team by being assholes...
- I was skeptical of the Bengals - not anymore...they really proved something by winning at Baltimore...
- The Titans need to start the second version of the Vince Young Era...Kerry Collins is no longer able to inspire nor move this club in the right direction...I am not sure Young is the answer either, but the move has to be made...
Since I brought up the name Sam Wyche, here is a 16 second clip of his greatest moment...check out the old dude in the sweater...
We are six weeks into the college season and it's time to unveil the first Stiles Points Top 16 college ranking on the year...
1. Florida (5-0) - a 13-3 win in Death Valley shows the Gators defense can step up when needed... 2. Alabama (6-0) - the Tide has a hammer defense... 3. Texas (5-0) - the Horns were looking ahead a bit...this week is the Red River Shootout... 4. Boise State (5-0) - Boise State deserves the #4 spot... 5. Cincinnati (5-0) - Brian Kelly has an offense that could run with anyone...
6. Virginia Tech (5-1) - after the week 1 loss to Bama, the Hokies are clicking on all cylinders... 7. LSU (5-1) - how can a team that loses 13-3 to Florida be ranked lower?... 8. Southern Cal (4-1) - the Trojans head to South Bend for their annual beatdown of the Irish... 9. Miami (4-1) - the U showed how to bounce back after that loss to the Hokies... 10. TCU (5-0) - the Horned Frogs have one of the best defenses in the nation...
11. Ohio State (5-1) - the Buckeyes offense sputters when they play a good defense... 12. Iowa (6-0) - are the Hawkeyes pretenders?...they answered the bell vs. Penn State and Michigan... 13. Nebraska (4-1) - the Huskers are 30 seconds from being perfect this season...Pelini has turned it around... 14. Penn State (4-1) - the Nittany Lions smacked down another I-AA opponent... 15. Oklahoma (3-2) - the Sooners may have 2 losses, but they are still a darn good team...a win this week against Texas will jump OU over many teams... 16. Oregon (5-1) - the Ducks have recovered well after the Boise State debacle...
The Heisman Hub 1. Jimmy Clausen, qb, Notre Dame - Clausen does not get the respect because he plays for Notre Dame...but he has been damn impressive this year...a big game against USC will do wonders...imagine if he can lead the Irish to an upset win... 2. Tim Tebow, qb, Florida - he has done nothing to hurt his chances... 3. Colt McCoy, qb, Texas - a big game over OU may move him to #1... 4. Ryan Mallett, qb, Arkansas - this guy is a freakin NFL stud QB...
Here is a nice little photo from SECPoon to close with...
