WE ALREADY KNEW THAT LINDSAY Lohan's career is in the gutter, and that she's starving for attention. But

RON ARTEST WOULD LIKE US ALL to know that he's still

defense. And that's why he painted the word in
in three different languages in his hair.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND GOT A hell of an

NOTHING BEATS A GOOD FACEPLANT, especially when it happens to an over-confident skater dude

MAN. WHAT'S UP WITH BIG BEN Roethlisberger during off seasons? If it ain't a motorcyle accident, it's

ban this commercial ft. has been Pam Anderson. Not sure why, tho. The nudity? The spilling of milk, the poor acting?

FIRST HE WASN'T WELCOME, THEN he was in after all, but right now it seems
they pulled him anyways: Sacha Baron Cohen is considered too risky for the Oscars.
Chicago Darch-Times Media Group
What's Up!?
Could this really be true? 'Bears owe Julius Peppers only $20M guaranteed'
USUALLY, WHEN SOMETHING SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT IS too good to be true. And this latest Chicago Bears nugget - dug up by SI's Peter King - seems to be just like that.
According to King, Peppers gets $20 million in 2010 (all but a $100,000 workout bonus is guaranteed). But the $22 million in guaranteed money that he's due to receive in 2011 and 2012 is
guaranteed for injury only.
That's some damn good negotiating by da Bears -
IF it's true. Because the question is: why would Peppers and/or his agent agree to that?

Oh no! Midnight Run will get a sequel
•
I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THIS. NO, STRIKE that. I
do know how I feel about it. I'm not happy with it. It's like one of my other all time favorite movies
The Blues Brothers. For years
they respectfully managed to leave John Landis' masterpiece alone, but in the end they couldn't help themselves and came up with
Blues Brothers 2000. What a farce.
And now they're going to touch
A Midnight Run (1988). Jack Walsh will
have to bring in another fugitive. Sigh.
Universal has hired Tim Dowling to write a sequel. Bobby DeNiro will return, the retired Charles Grodin won't. Ah well.
What else can we do then to honor the original by showing some highlight after >

The Flying Tomato Shaun White made the cover of (the) Rolling Stone (mag)
•
CHANCES ARE, THEY RATHER WOULD HAVE HAD LINDSEY VONN - if she would've won the expected five gold medals. Then again. Maybe not. Since Shaun White aka
The Flying Tomato (although I've been told he doesn't like to be called that, but that's just too bad) is way more rock and roll than La Vonn will ever be. And on top of that: White was without competition the best in his discipline, even though it was just a made up sport.
But anyways. White made the cover of
Rolling Stone magazine, and that by itself is pretty damn cool. Check it out >

Megan Fox in Harper's Bazaar UK

MEGAN FOX APPEARS (WILL APPEAR) IN THE APRIL ISSUE OF the British edition of
Harper's Bazaar. Normally, we're mostly interested in the pictures, but since they're not that special (you can check 'm out after the jump anyways), we concentrated on what she had to say. And guess what:
"I've only been with two men my entire life. My childhood sweetheart and Brian. I can never have sex with someone that I don't love, ever. The idea makes me sick. I've never even come close to having a one-night stand."
Wow. Who would have thought >

take on it.
Amazing trick shots by your NBA stars
IT'S ONE THING TO SEE LEBRON JAMES, RAY ALLEN, CHRIS Webber, Seve Nash, Chris Paul, Dwight Howard or Monta Ellis pull off the most amazing shots and dunks on the court. But what about all those amazing trick shots during practice? Happens all the time, you say? I bet it does. But... Hardly ever (one of) those amazing trick shots do end up on video, so you and I can enjoy them as well. But guess what. Ten of those amazing trick shots actually DID end up on film. You can check 'm out after the jump. Oh, and you think LeBron James ending up twice in this Top Ten? Probably not >

[UPDATE] Bears sign Julius Peppers, Brandon Manumaleuna, Chester Taylor
YOUR CHICAGO BEARS, WITH ONLY A FEW PICKS IN THE UPCOMING draft, are in full gear during the current Free Agency window, that started last midnight. In total, the Bears
are targeting three names: TE Brandon Manumaleuna, DE Julius Peppers, and RB Chester Taylor.
AS BEEN SAID: THE BEARS are in full gear. San Diego's
Manumaleuna already signed, and according to reports da Bears are the front runners to bag both
Julius Peppers (Carolina) and Minnesota's Chester
Taylor as well.
[UPDATE 2:17pm] And that's number 2: your Chicago Bears
landed Minnesota Vikings running back Chester Taylor. Taylor signed a 4 year deal ($12.5 million), $7M garanteed.
[UPDATE 3:41pm] And we have a threesome. Julius Peppers is
expected to sign a six year $72 million deal ($40-45M in the first three years).
