Sunday Link-Off: Heads Up

Let’s kick off with Minka Kelly who I believe is making her SLO debut.

Is your password 123456? Then I’d think about changing it unless some nice hacker has done that for you already. In the meanwhile, I’d check the rest of the most used password list to protect your interweb identity. (New York Times)

There’s nothing more fun than an FJM-style lambasting of an article. It’s even better when it defends my QB Tony Romo. (NBC Dallas-Fort Worth)

And Michigan State University is on Team Leno. How do I figure that? Their new logo has an enormous chin. (Lansing State Journal)

After the jump, celebrating Canadian sports, talking football, and another Russian hockey brawl.

An article on Steve Nash’s success on and off the court. If ever there was a prototype for the 21st Century athlete, it’s Steve. (Fast Company)

Good news! We’ve been jinxed by an American university economics prof that thinks he can predict sports using economic factors. (CBC)

In other Olympics news, New Yorkers have found another Asian conspiracy in the Olympics. This time, the NYT is looking at Asians taking over figure skating. (New York Times)

Speaking of Vancouver, the UFC is planning on holding a show there this year. Brock Lesnar doesn’t seem to be much of a fan of Canada so I don’t think he’ll want to be there. (National Post)

Glory, glory debt collectors? That seems to be the most popular cheer in the English Premier League these days. (The Big Lead)

It’s football meets the club scene in this football to nightlife dictionary. (The Pigskin Doctors)

And the NFL conference finals are today. The New York Post has total faith that their heroes will win the day. And I literally mean heroes. (The Big Lead)

Rumour has it that McDonalds is remaking the famous Jordan-Bird HORSE game commercial. We don’t know how that might turn out but there are some funny stories coming out now about the old commercial. (CNBC)

I need this in my life. (Puck Daddy)

Today’s first photo gallery is tattoo failures. The great thing about permanent ink is that there is no spell check. Well, it’s great for us. (Heavy)

Today’s second gallery is an examination of why printers are evil. And public printers that charge 10 cents per page are twice as evil. (Lion’s Den U)

Sign #238 that kids are growing up faster nowadays: Bench-clearing hockey brawls.

Religious TV in the UK isn’t as well worshipped as in America. In fact, if you ain’t pranking them, you ain’t having fun. Everybody’s gotta worship in their own way. Not sure what’s more sad: The fact that this guy doesn’t get the joke or that he doesn’t seem to know what he’s doing.
