THE MORNING ... ACCORDING TO US

Here's how you roll with this: check the map up top! The content here corresponds. It's WORLD-wide; that's how we roll. It's up to the minute; that's also how we do things. What we've learned today is this: Lithuania races babies. That's adorable and all and even maybe kinda cute, but is it also a little warped? You can be the judge.

Lithuania Has Some Interesting Sports
Gary Belsky, the editor-in-chief of this Magazine, has a blog on this site. His gimmick is ranking the Top 27 Sports in the World according to him. We wonder if he's aware of baby racing in Lithuania, a detailed report of which can be found here. We wonder if he reads the site, too…We kid!


Writing's on the Electronic Wall

It's a developing theme in sports the last few years that when an athlete or organization has something to say, they post it on their website (there was a period last summer where KB24.Com was as required a reading stop as The Superficial. Oh wait, we've said too much). The Olympics are no different: Chinese officials put a manifesto on the Beijing Olympic's homepage. The message: behave. You won't get a visa if you are "subversive," pro-Tibet, a prostitute, mentally ill, or carry a sexually transmitted disease. If you act out--or even if you don't--expect cops to check your passports. And don't go asking to see parts of China that aren't as beautiful as Beijing, bub. Some of the country is off-limits. Otherwise, enjoy.

How did that get in my bag?
Pakistani Mohammad Asif, a fast bowler on the national cricket team--and, yes, we, too, are a bit confused as to the fast bowler's responsibility on the field (or is it the pitch?)--was arrested in Dubai airport for carrying opium. Asif doesn't know how the drug got in his luggage.

Misty Clifs Windsurfing
We've never been to Capetown—although believe us, we want to go—so we're unfamiliar with Misty Clifs and frankly at this point, that seems like a good thing. The place is absolutely brutal for windsurfers but they flock there anyway. Check out the video on the matter.

Singapore Can Get Extreme
While researching bungee jumping in Peru (apparently it's one of the leading places in the world to do it), we came across some clips of 'reverse bungee jumping' in Singapore. You should give the video a whirl, but essentially, it's like a carnival ride from your youth gone horribly awry.

How bout them Cowboys!
Two important things happened with the Cowboys yesterday: Pac Man got a limited return and they helped T.O. Get paaaaaaaaaid. They have so much talent, but in all likelihood, their season will collapse in some way, shape, or form. As a result, we bring you one of the funniest videos we've ever seen (an oldie but a goodie): the 2007 Cowboys in Eight Seconds. Yep, it's eight seconds long. And yep, it encapsulates their season perfectly. And yep, it probably will again!
