Fresh off the press, but certain sources are claiming that the world may soon be graced with a mini-Beyonce – rumors speculate that the singer may be newly pregnant. If it’s true, we wish Miss Beyonce a healthy and happy pregnancy!

Oscar winner (seriously…) Sandra Bullock had her face splashed all over the tabloids this week when her husband, Jesse James, was revealed to be a recidivist cheat. The only good thing that comes out of this sad and rather sordid situation is that scientists can finally lay to rest the question of whether attractive people can date and marry jerks. Thanks for taking one for the team, Sandy.

3 Reasons to Make Your Own March Madness and Play Basketball

basketballFor college basketball fans, the NCAA tournament is like heaven – and with a host of upsets, there’s certainly no lack of excitement in this year’s Sweet Sixteen. But guess what: basketball is just as fun to plat as it is to watch. To inspire you to get off the couch and head out for a pick-up game (though we certainly don’t intend for you to miss any games – everyone knows staring at the TV prevents your bracket from being busted), here’s the top 3 reasons to take a break from the tube and start your own tournament.

Aerobic health - All the running and jumping is a fabulous aerobic workout, right up there with running – but the pivoting, feinting, and directional changes required by a game of basketball give you the increased flexibility in your joints and muscles that running just can’t.

Overall coordination – The skill you’ll develop directing the ball into the hoop will strengthen your eye-hand coordination and overall spatial relations…which will, of course, make it that much easier to wield the remote with gumption during the tournament.

Emotional balance/fun - If you usually head to the gym alone, playing with friends or a pick-up league helps you switch up your workout and introduce a social element that’s too often given short shrift. By having fun with others, the time will go quicker and you’ll be far less likely to come up with all those convenient excuses for not working out.

Welcome to the Zit List, where we tell you exactly what to think about the week that was.

Things probably can’t get much worse for Tigs – one of his mistresses released the text messages he sent her. Yeah, yeah, the affair stuff is disturbing, but far MORE disturbing is the fact that the text messages suggest that Tiger thought he was a CIA agent in the process.

Link: The Day the Music Died
Influential musician Alex Chilton passed away this week due to a heart attack after a long career in the industry. He helmed the Box Tops at age 16 and Big Star during the 1970s; in the ensuing decades, legions of indie and pop artists alike were influenced by his sound.

March Madness is upon us, and many brackets have already been thrown askew by upsets of top-seeded teams. 1 zit in deference to those teams’ dashed dreams, but underdogs are always more exciting. Put your seatbelts on!
