For the first time in Nicklas Lidstrom’s 19 year career, he recorded a hat trick against the St. Louis Blues. Lidstrom had recorded 19 games of having two goals before recording the illustrious hat trick goal last night. It seems only fitting that we give our Halfman of the day to him.

Today’s halfman award nominee is Shaun White. White won his third consecutive Winter X Games SuperPipe Gold. The fact that “The Flying Tomato” won didn’t surprise anyone, but the way he won was awesome. White slammed his face on a practice run got up and won the event doing a 1260 Double McTwist. Being fearless makes you halfman worthy, now let’s hope he can do more of the same in Vancouver for the Olympics.

Now we know that Lebron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers will rarely qualify for a halfdog nomination, so when he does, we have to jump on it. Lebron was fined 25k yesterday for simply kicking a water bottle. Apparently the water bottle hit a fan, hence the fine. Even though the money doesn’t matter to Lebron, it seems like it’s a pretty steep fine for the action. For once, we were all witness to Lebron being, well, a little less than superhuman.

Today’s halfman award nominee is Kobe Bryant. Kobe hit the game winner in overtime last night and scored 39 points. Those aren’t super numbers for Kobe, they would be for anybody else, but when you consider he hit this shot with a broken finger on his shooting hand he has to be considered for halfman of the week.

Tiger Woods as we all know, has participated in some sinful behavior as of late. A lot of people have spoken out and given Tiger advice and support, and others have not. It got me thinking about five people that Tiger shouldn’t get any advice from, and should avoid at all costs.
Ron Artest should be on this list for his track record alone, but yesterday, on his blog, Artest added a little more to that. Artest called Tiger a “standup guy” and wrote about how he fooled around on his girlfriend and having a baby with this mistress. Tiger I don’t think that Artest is the right guy you should go to for advice.
This list in my mind would not be complete if Mike Tyson wasn’t on it. I don’t think any human on the face of this green earth should take advice from Mike, let alone Tiger Woods. I don’t know if he has offered any advice to you, but anyone who bites another man’s ear off, tattoos their face, and is a convicted rapist shouldn’t be listened to.
Tiger, don’t listen to Chris Brown. Brown was given assault charges for beating up Rihanna. I do not condone violence, and I don’t think you should beat your wife. It would be better Tiger if Chris Brown made contact with you, ignore the call, and do not, I repeat, do not listen to his music.
We all know that Bill Clinton did some amazing things as the president of our country, but when it came to personal life, he was an idiot. Tiger good job not proclaiming like Clinton, “I did not have relations with that woman”. I don’t think Clinton would call, I see him more or less creeping you through your bedroom window, so Tiger make sure your blinds are closed at night.
The last person you should not listen to is Marv Albert. Albert, who commentates NBA games for TNT, assaulted a women and bite her, and was let go from NBC. Tiger we all hate listening in to Marv Albert calling a game, but just say “NO!” to Marv when he calls and throws down his trademark “YES!”
I think I have given Mr. Woods a few good people to avoid. Other people that fell short of this list included Kobe Bryant, the Duke lacrosse team, and Rick Patino. I am pretty sure that you are already ignoring Jesper Parnevick, Tiger just make sure to avoid these others.
Written by: Matthew Flygare halfmanhalfdog teamOn the fourth day of Christmas HMHD gave to me, 4 cover corners
3 Running Backs, 2 Tight Ends, and a Safety from the Denver Dream.
Danielle Moinet, Deanna Perlowin, Sacha Wood and Jenna Bloczynski all play corner in the LFL. I don’t really know much about LFL coverage schemes, do they call it man coverage or woman coverage, who knows. Purely from a spectators perspective I hope that these lovely ladies run a lot of bump and run.
Merry Christmas The halfmanhalfdog team
