Rosie O’Donnell had a heart attack last
week, she revealed on her blog. After helping
an “enormous woman” get out of her car,
O’Donnell felt chest pains. She went to the
cardiologist the next day. “My LAD was 99%
blocked,” she wrote. “They call this type of
heart attack the Widow Maker.”
ESPN HOST
GOES RACIAL
Skip Bayless of ESPN made a startling
claim on First Take on Monday, positing
that white football fans are more likely to
support a white player over a black one.
“I’m going to throw it out there,” he said. “You also have the black-white dynamic and the
majority of Redskins fans are white. And it’s just human nature, if you’re white to root for
the white guy.” Bayless was arguing that Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who is
black, may face extra pressure from fellow rookie quarterback Kirk Cousins, who is white.
GOP CONGRESSMAN
REGRETS NUDE SWIM
During a fact-finding trip to Israel last
summer, Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kan.) skinnydipped in the Sea of Galilee, according
to a Politico report. A group of House
Republicans along with their staffers and
spouses were involved in the late-night
swim, which was later probed by the FBI.
“After dinner I followed some Members of
Congress in a spontaneous and very brief
dive into the sea and regrettably I jumped
into the water without a swimsuit,” Yoder
wrote in an apology statement.
