B-Ball Coach Arrested During Prostitution Sting - Clyde Vaughan, an assistant
coach for the University of Connecticut's men's basketball team, was among more than a dozen
unlucky people arrested during a prostitution sting run by Hartford police. Vaughan, 42, was charged with patronizing a prostitute and interfering with police after
he offered to pay an undercover officer $10 for oral sex. To make things worse,
according to police, once Vaughan learned he was part of a sting he struggled
with officers. For his part, Vaughan denies the charges, but police say they
have an audiotape of the incident that will confirm the charges.
Eating
Contest Between HS Football Teams Turns Into Brawl on Live TV
- You have to see the video of this! TV station KUTV in
Salt Lake City was holding a preseason eating contest between rival Bingham and
Hunter high schools during it's noon newscast. They cut to the reporter standing
outside next to the teams, talking about how the Subway sandwich eating contest
between the squads was going. Suddenly, someone from one team sprays water on
the other team, then someone throws a bottle of water, then a whole 12 inch
sandwich is thrown (oh the humanity!) and finally punches . . . all while the
hapless reporter narrates the scene, and also runs for his life. They finally
cut back to the studio were the two female anchors look greatly distressed and
promise to "send help outside." LINK INCLUDES VIDEO CLIP!

Teen
Fans Brawl After HS Football Scrimmage - Well, if the players are going
to practice, the fans might as well too. A preseason scrimmage between Newton
High School and Salem High School led to the arrests of several spectators by
the Covington, Georgia Police Department. According to one victim, he and his
pals were tailgating after the game when a group from the other school came up
and took several drinks from his cooler . . . without asking! He asked them to
stop and their response was to chase after him and later kick and beat him . . .
probably because he didn't say please. Only a few arrests were made, but
authorities think both sets of fans will have their "a-games" ready
when the regular season starts and we can anticipate a more professional level
of violence then.
Owner
of Vegas Pawn Shop That Bought Big Eight Championship Ring Says Lawrence
Phillips Told Him He Needed Cash to "Get Out of Town!" - Columnist
Norm Clark in Las Vegas Review-Journal is reporting that troubled former Nebraska running back Lawrence Phillips recently sold
his Big Eight Championship ring to Steve Gibson, owner of Steve's Buy & Sell.
Why was he in such hurry to sell such a prized possession? According to Gibson,
Phillips told him that he was was stuck in Las Vegas and "needed to get out
of town." Phillips also told Gibson that he tried to sell the ring "at every pawnshop from Tropicana to downtown," but nobody was interested because it wasn't gold.
Gibson claims he reluctantly purchased the ring--with Phillips name inscribed
on it--for a whopping $20 and later sold it later on ebay for $1700! (Thanks to our friends Johnson
and Tofte on KSFN in Las Vegas for the tip!)
Hazing
Horror Story: HS Football Players Send Freshman to Hospital, Won't Miss Playing
Time, But Will Miss School - Didn't we learn anything from the Mepham
HS incident from last season boys and girls? (Other than, don't try to shove
golf balls up someone's rectum.) Already this season we have a report
that four upperclassman on the football team at Roane County High School in Tennessee
beat up at least a half dozen freshmen as part of an "initiation",
badly bruising all of them and sending at least one to the
hospital. (The beatings were so severe one victims' hip popped out of it's socket and
he's still under the care of an orthopedic doctor after an emergency room visit last weekend.)
And while they've been suspended from school for ten days, they are all still on
the team. Why? Principal Jody McCloud said no one would come forward to testify
against them, so in exchange for their "cooperation", they were only
suspended instead of being expelled and are still practicing with the team in
anticipation of playing in their season opener on August 27. Anyone want to
bet they sit out a whole first quarter of that game? (Thanks to Our Good Friend
for another great link!)

Hot
Married Australian Gym Teacher on Trial for Sex With 15-Year-Old Boy! - It started as a dare on the basketball court. The young lad dared his petite
blonde phys ed teacher, "If I get this in . . . you can give me a kiss." (We're
assuming he meant the basketball.) He did, they did, and from there, and now
mother-of-three Karen Louise Ellis has admitted to having sex with the boy on six occasions last year,
most of the time while her husband was away on business. The lovers were caught
after his mother say him getting into a car with Ellis and acting "lovey
dovey". According to court documents, at one point she even had sex with the student before taking him to McDonald's for lunch then returning him to school.
It didn't make the cops job too difficult when she also sent nearly 500
text-messages to the boy over a three-month period, along with 123 voice messages.
Is Ellis at least remorseful about what happened? Not in the least, telling the court, "It isn't just about sex. Honestly, if I split up . . . tomorrow with my husband and (the boy) was 18, I would imagine we would still continue to see each other."
This, with her husband in court supporting her every day. Can anyone say Mary Kay Letourneau?

Player Use New "It'll Ruin My Career" Defense: Judge
Knows He's "Guilty as Sin" Lets Him Off Anyway! - By all
rights, Gregory D. Powell, 20 should not only be off the Maryland football team,
he should also be in jail. He allegedly fought with police during a raid on a
motel where underage drinkers were told to pour out their beer. Powell admitted cursing at an officer and
then had to have pepper spray used on him when cops tried to arrest him. The fun
continued as he fought with officers and tried to run, resulting in charges of assaulting police and disorderly conduct.
On Tuesday, Judge R. Patrick Hayman, after hearing from Powell's defense
attorney that the conviction would end his career, told the Terrapin wide
receiver, "Son, you are about to get an early Christmas present, because I know what effect a probation would
have. And it is a gift, because you are guilty as sin. I'm going to find you not guilty."

Olympic
Security? What Security? Gate Crasher in Blue Tutu Jumps Into Pool During Diving
Event - So much for the terrorist-proof Olympic games: a Canadian spectator left the stands at the
synchronized diving even, dressed only in a tutu and clown shoes, climbed the springboard ladder, walked onto a board and, after pausing,
did a nasty belly flop into the water. He claims he did it to send a message to
his wife, but he also just happened to have the name of a well-known online
gaming website painted on his chest when he did it. One good thing, he'll
probably have several years in a Greek "pound-me-in-the-ass" prison to
relive his 15 minutes of fame.

Teens Arrested for Playing Street Basketball Naked - From our "What

Police say no alcohol was involved and the reason for the activity Aug. 7 is
still unexplained.
Steroid
Summer Continues: Why are Greek Sprinters Running From Olympic Drug Tests?
I've been watching this story since last week, not sure if it's really BadJocks
material or not: Kostas Kenteris and Katerina Thanou, Greece's greatest male and female sprinters ever, were supposed to show up for a drug test at the Olympic Village
last Thursday before the games began, but they disappeared. Later they were
found in the hospital after having been in a "motorcycle accident"
which no one else witnessed. Since then, they have missed several hearings about
why they missed the drug tests which, in the sports business, is the same as
testing positive and would mean their expulsion from the Games, a major scandal
for the host country. There was supposed to be another hearing on Monday, but
that was postponed until because "there weren't legal experts representing the athletes.''

Nike
Drops Insensitive "Sexy Coach" Ad - Athletic shoemaker Nike
has pulled a commercial from Australian television showing teenage girls swooning over their
hunky male tennis coach, which started airing just ten
days after renowned tennis coach Gavin Hopper was sentenced to 3 1/2 years in
jail for indecently assaulting a 14-year-old student. According to Joe Tucci, chief executive
with the Australian Childhood Foundation, the spot "trivialized" the experiences of young women who had been abused.
"I think it is probably insensitive at the moment to be showing this kind of ad in Australia considering the recent high-profile
cases."

Betting
on Cricket Fights Leads to Arrest of More Than 100 - Fighting in the the
humble sport of cricket, you say? No, even stupider: gambling over the winner of
the battle between two crickets . . . the insects. About 115 people were
arrested in Hong Kong following a police investigation into alleged betting on insect fights.
Undercover officers had the (I'm not making this up!) "Far East Friends of Crickets Social Club"
under surveillance for several weeks before the raid. Even more surprising,
cricket fighting is legal in Hong Kong, but unfortunately, gambling on the
outcome is not. The event that was raided was billed as the "Guangdong Hong Kong and Macau Fight of
Champions" but in reality it was just a series of fights between journeyman
crickets in a rundown, back street social club. The local may not have been
Caesar's Palace, but the bug owners were playing for high stakes. In addition to
arresting the players, during the raid police also confiscating more than $1,000 in cash,
what they described as gambling paraphernalia and, of course, the crickets who
were lead out in tiny little cuffs for the world's saddest perp walk. (Okay, I
made that last part up, but it really makes the story, doesn't it?) More
information on the history of cricket fighting here.
When
Caught by Reporter With Fictional Resume New Coach Responds With, "What Does
It Have To Do With the (expletive) Newspaper Anyway?" - It's
probably not the best idea to spend your first week on the job as the new HS
football defending your resume. Newly hired Morse High School (California) football coach Stewart Roper
apparently not only made some false claims on past job applications, but also
forgot to mention that he may have been fired or resigned under pressure from at least two of his four jobs since
2001. Roper allegedly claimed he once played in the CFL and also was working on
a coaching book, neither of which could be verified. On Aug. 4, the day after he was hired, Roper told The San Diego Union-Tribune he coached at Yuma, Ariz.; Yosemite; and Herlong. District officials at each place say they have no record of him.
But this goes beyond embellishing your resume a little bit: In 2001, Roper was fired after
just three games as the head football coach at Blythe Palo Verde High after
parents and players had accused him of rough treatment, including limited water breaks and derogatory language. In
his next brief coaching stint in 2002 Roper resigned under pressure after
only eight days as head football coach at Bloomington High in San Bernardino
County when questions arose about the accuracy of his résumé, which included--surprise--his claim of playing in the CFL. School officials also questioned his won-lost record and whether he actually coached at some of the places he claimed.
When asked about his background over the weekend, Roper screamed, "What does it have to do with the (expletive) newspaper anyway? Nothing,"
"The newspaper doesn't have to figure out (my background). The San Diego School District has to figure it out. ...
You don't need to check anything. Bruce Ward and the district need to check it, and they have. And they're satisfied. And that's all that counts, to me."
The big question that remains is: why didn't the school disctrict check out his
resume BEFORE they hired him? (Thanks to Kurt Crowley at KACSports.com

Florida
Coach Fired for Letting Squad Wear "10 Reasons to Cheer Naked"
T-Shirts - No, they weren't cheering naked, the squad from the
University of Florida was just wearing some T-shirts at a cheerleading camp that
read "10 Reasons to Cheer Naked" (we still don't know what those
reasons are, but we can guess). Nonetheless, the school decided that such
behavior could not be tolerated (although I think there are several felons on
the football team) and the coach, Gene Moore, 39, terminated . . . he says
unfairly.

with it's fur on fire, ran off into the tean's equipment storage hut destroying lawnmowers and tools worth $110,000.

NBA Owner
Caught In Sex Scandal - Usually, it's the young players who get involved
in sex scandals, but not in the free-for-all NBA. This time it involves married,
70-year-old club owner Donald Sterling, the tycoon who owns the Los Angeles Clippers
and is reportedly worth nearly a billion. Our friends at TheSmokingGun have
Sterling's sworn deposition that was taken as part of his lawsuit against a
woman named Alexandra Castro. (I can't figure out what the lawsuit is about, but
it sound she wanted money from him, and actually got money from him for sex,
making her a . . . ) In often explicit detail, Sterling recounted three years of transactions with Castro, acknowledging that, "maybe I morally did something
wrong." He goes on to describe hour-long sessions with Castro, whom Sterling credited with
"sucking me all night long" and whose "best sex was better than words could express." Sterling
then bluntly says of Castro: "It was purely sex for money, money for sex, sex for money, money for sex."
Reads like a bad porn novel, so enjoy!

a picture of Alexandra Castro, naked or otherwise. If you know of any online

#172!
He Had Her Initials Tattooed on His Butt! You know, just when we think
we've seen and heard it all, we have a week like this one with the HS Coach Sex
Scandals. Nine new ones just this week; we shatter last year's record of 167 . .
. in August, and they catch one guy in the bushes outside a VA hospital taking
pictures of a topless teen. How can we top that? With an assistant
principal/assistant football coach at Red Bank High School in Chattanooga, who
not only had sex with a 17-year-old female student on several occasions and also
got her liquored up during a romp at an Atlanta hotel, Coach Frank Anderson "Andy" Chastain
also had her initials tattooed on his buttocks. (How do cops know that? The
girl allegedly drew a picture of the tattoo on a napkin and police later got a
search warrant to obtain to photograph Chastain's buttocks "and during the execution of the warrant a tattoo matching (the girl's)'s drawing was located on Chastain's buttocks.")
That was only one of several pieces of evidence police obtained against Coach
Chastain: they also got his DNA from a pair of the girl's panties her mother
gave them and she had proof of the Atlanta incident because she had
received--wait for it--a parking ticket from the hotel parking lot! You'd
think he would have picked up the tab for that, wouldn't you?
