We added a new contributor to the Loudville team, Ambrose. He loves the hell out of Sidney Crosby and he hates Chris Pronger so he probably won’t watch the Flyers HBO documentary that’s on tomorrow.

Johan Santana threw the worst game of his life yesterday. That’s interesting and all, but I’m not really concerned. He’ll bounce back and the Mets will do okay for a while until they all get hurt or September, whichever comes first. What’s better than talking about the Mets? Watching the Fordham Leap again.

The Saints may have done a bad thing. Who Dat’s accused of distributing stolen Vicodin, among other things, by a former staff member who seems like a dick. Unfortunately we can’t see how this plays out through Steven Segal’s eyes, since his Jefferson Parish sheriff show is still on hiatus. Oh well.

The most popular search that led people to Loudville this weekend was…

No sir, Dany Heatley is an all-star. Everybody knows that.

This post was really supposed to involve Wade Boggs. I need to work on that for next time, but for now let’s talk about another old man. Brett Favre might have told a guy that he’s going to retire, but nothing is solid. He was told last week that he needs surgery to play this season; I honestly think Favre is just being his selfish old man self, was aware of this in February and hid it from the Vikings staff and the media until after the draft so he wasn’t replaced by a first or second round pick. Childress might have not done that anyway though, and let his man-crush on Favre cloud his judgement, so who knows.

The Cleveland Cavaliers call their best section Loudville so I might as well mention that LeBron James won the NBA MVP for the second year in a row. His speech mentioned Akron, Ohio in a nostalgic fashion and people have been speculating that it indicated he’s changing teams as a free agent. People have been echoing the same for years. I refrain from comment. I’m not even going to link it.

I spent half my morning trying to fix some code here so I may as well post something. Loudville has a new voicemail hotline: 732-646-LOUD

How ’bout those Mets? First in the NL East and they beat down on the Phillies 9-1 last night. Outstanding. If only they could keep it up all year… can you imagine if they had a manager who seemed like he knew what he’s doing? The Yankees won too, and the Rays and Sox lost so it’s like two wins in a day for the Bombers. Bonus. Oh, and Dany Heatley got his first playoff goal of the season on Thursday. He’s an all-star.

I wasn’t really looking to blog today so I’m going to cut it here with another “history will be made” video, this one on the Sean Avery rule.

She makes that sweater look good

Alyssa Milano is arguably one of the hottest WAGs out there, but her WAG status comes at a price. Sure, this girl is so hot you’ve wanted to get in her Red Sox logo-emblazoned shorts since the late 80s, but she comes with her own curse. Brad Penny, Carl Pavano, Barry Zito, and the entire Mets organization have been sidelined by the curse of her rabid WAG flesh. She may have been on Charmed, but she was certainly no good luck. We won’t hold that against her at Loudville. Curse be damned, we like looking at her just the same.

Better hands than Youkillis, that's for sure
