Joe Buck Retires

New York, NY - It has been long awaited by many and the day has finally come. Joe Buck has announced his retirement from the broadcast booth in both baseball and football. It has been about 20 years that fans have been forced to listen to the same voice while watching baseball and football games on Fox. This day has been long awaited and has finally come.

Buck, in an interview reported the following: "After reading the social media comments over the last couple World Series', I finally realized that people just don't like me very much and that I make the experience more annoying rather than enjoyable for fans. I really tried to come at my broadcasting objectively but let's be honest - I like the Yankees, big home run sluggers, and watching the Bachelorette."

Fox Sports will begin interviews next week in search for a new broadcaster to call it's football and baseball games beginning for the 2016 MLB season.

We can only hope Cris Collinsworth follows suit.

Bob Barker Apologizes to Happy Gilmore

        After falling to 45th place in the Pro Golf Tour, Bob Barker could not take it anymore with Happy Gilmore and began taking his frustrations with the golfer out on him in the middle of the tournament. After the initial altercation, this led to Gilmore falling to dead last place. Conflict between the two continued, leading to an all out physical fight between Happy Gilmore and his celebrity caddie, Bob Barker. Gilmore's favorite sport, of course was hockey and Barker insulted Gilmore stating "I can't believe you're a professional golfer. I think you should be working at the snack bar. There is no way you could have been as bad at hockey as you are at golf." Next, Happy took the first shot at Barker by punching him in the face. What took Happy Gilmore by surprise was that Barker got right back up and ended up demolishing him in a full-on fist fight.   
     
        Eighteen years later, Bob Barker has announced that he was wrong in insulting the rookie golfer. "It was my fault. I instigated the fight by insulting him. It was only his first time in the Pro Golf Tour. I was just trying to get him going. My father used to do that to me when I would struggle in bowling. I was hoping it would work with Happy," Barker told us last Thursday evening. "I never meant for it to turn into a fight but once he took the first shot, my emotions really got the best of me."
     
        Gilmore, of course did end up coming back and winning the Pro Golf Tour that year (1996) but has not golfed since. Barker also told us that he is proud of Happy for winning that tournament and would like to congratulate him and hopes there are no hard feelings.

Jacksonville Jaguars Still Trying To Win

Jacksonville Jaguars Still Trying To Win Jacksonville, FL - After an 0-8 start, the Jacksonville Jaguars are still trying to win football games, according to sources. Some fans were questioning this after a 32 point loss on Sunday to the 49ers. "A positive note from the game is that we scored double digit points, so we'll definitely take that into next week," said RB Maurice Jones-Drew.

Next weekend the Jaguars take on the Tennessee Titans (3-4) and are going to do their best. "We're definitely going to try to do our best. We don't know how good that will be but like I said, we will try - I hope," said Titans head coach Mike Munchak.

The Titans discussed their best options to find their first win.

Option 1: Injure the best players on the opponents team. The Titans could use their worst bench players to injure the best players on the opposing team early in the first quarter. This would give them a slight advantage, however, who will be willing to be the sacrificial lamb?

Option 2: Switch teams with the Jacksonville University Dolphins. The Dolphins are 4-4 this season at their division 1 collegiate level. It is possible that the Dolphins (who have actually won this season) would be willing to throw their season to benefit the Jacksonville NFL team by swapping their entire team with the Jaguars. If the Dolphins did this, they would most likely lose their following 3 games to Marist, Mercer, and Stetson. The Jaguars have 8 games left on their schedule. If they did the swap, hopefully the new Jaguar team could match how they did at the collegiate level and earn at least 4 wins in their final 8 games.

Option 3: Change their mind and go for the number one draft pick. If the Jaguars change their mind about still trying to win a game, that might be their best bet. If they can successfully finish their season, a ghastly 0-16, they will most likely earn the first draft pick next season (unless the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are thinking the same thing).

On a positive note for Miami Dolphins fans, they are the best Florida NFL team. Congratulations.

Nokia Admits 41MP Camera Phone Has Too Many Megapixels

Espoo, Finland - The Nokia Lumia 1020 Smartphone was released in July 2013 with a 41 megapixel camera. The second largest mainstream smartphone available in the U.S. is equipped with a standard 13mp camera, which is quite large for a cell phone as it is.

Three months after its release, Nokia finally admits that they used too many megapixels. "Yes, we went a little overboard. Forty-one is probably too many megapixels. Not really sure what we were thinking," said Nokia's CEO, Risto Siilasmaa. "A bunch of us got together actually after work one night and we had a few drinks."

Nokia hopes people will find this feature fascinating and lead them toward their purchase of their next smartphone. "If not, we understand," said Siilasmaa.
