Here are this week’s top sports stories from Ed in “The Sports News Report.”
Mike Tyson loses in Latin America
Former heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, traveled to Suriname for competition, this time as a bird coach. Taking part in the new Fusion TV documentary series “Outpost,” Tyson entered a bird, dubbed “Little Mike,” into a songbird competition.
Upon defeat by a competing chirp champion, many questioned the judges as to why Tyson’s bird lost the contest, to which the judges responded by describing Little Mike’s squeaks and screeches as quote, “ear-biting.”
Magic Johnson forbids daughter to date Dodgers
Former NBA star and co-owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Magic Johnson, has a rule when dating his daughter, Elisa… ‘No Dodgers allowed.’ As for the reasoning, Johnson told reporters that he is not a fan of her “mixing business with pleasure.” Also, because he heard someone within the Dodgers organization might have AIDS.

Dick Vitale’s March Madness bracket is Awesome
If you listened to Dick Vitale’s advice, you should be sitting pretty in your March Madness pools. Several weeks ago, the famed college basketball sportscaster predicted that this year’s NCAA championship will be decided between Gonzaga and North Carolina, picking the Tar Heels to win it all. With both teams making it to the Final Four, things for Dickie V’s bracket are looking up. Ironically, his left eye cannot.
Raiders-themed Nevada brothel
And finally. The Oakland Raiders will be moving to Las Vegas, Nevada starting in the 2020 season. Once the move to Las Vegas is finalized, Nevada businessman, Dennis Hof, announced he will open a Raiders-themed brothel called “Pirate’s Booty.” He plans to have the VIP section at Pirate’s Booty staffed with “over 20 cheerleader-garbed working girls.” Although the establishment will be located 90 miles outside of Las Vegas, Hof stated Raiders players and staff will get 50% off at any of his seven Nevada business locations.
…This just in, every single player in the NFL has just demanded a trade to the Raiders.
