Razor Ray Emery in Trouble with the Law again
CBC Sports reports that ex-NHL, current Atlant Mytishchi goaltender, and full time ambassador of keeping all things very ral was pulled over in his "infamous white Hummer in the Ottawa area" once again... this time for speeding over 50 km/h over the posted speed limit... the last time he was pulled over in the Razormobile (the time after he may or may not have been busted for buying rocks in the 'hood) was for a minor accident in May of 2007. In that accident "he was uninjured and [kept it ral enough to sign] autographs afterward."! We love how when he's not punching out Russian trainers trying to gently fix a ballcap on his tight 'fro or licking his lips in sweet anticipation of fighting a Francophone goalie who has never fought before (or the full time heavyweight who comes to protect him), he's rocking the pearl white Hummer around Ottawa making sure everyone who isn't on the ice even, is on their toes.

Pre fight warm-up
If you've ever been in a fight you know that the pre-fight festivities usually last longer then the actual fight...this includes but is not limited to chirping, getting as many friends around as possible, asking someone to hold your drink/glasses/jacket/earrings/purse (women fight as well, don't be sexist), removal of ones shirt, doing at least three circles with your opponent to "look for an opening" and the step forward foot jab to test the reflexes of course. All of this is usually followed by some grapling, a few punches that don't land and then a bunch of bouncers/friends step in to break it up. (Unless you know Romeo, then it's a one punch followed by an appearance by an ambulance)
This guy however takes the pre fight routine to astronomical new heights...
man breaks car with head - Watch more
I'm no mathamagician but you'd think a pre fight headbutt to a Durango's back window would be a detriment in your ability to take punches, but you can never underestimate the power of intimidation, particularily when some guy can't stop yelling "OH MY GOD!" before the fight has even started.

Submission: from DVDA
Dan really liked the bit about NHL fighter Bobby Probert and he thought we should include a clip of Wade Belak's TKO of Donald Brashear last night. I couldn't find a nickname of Belak anywhere on the web, but we'll go with the Albino Rhino...

RAL Sports - Bob "Probie" Probert


Every Mondy, Ikeepsitral will feature a new sports figure who keepsitral. This week... Bob Probert. Widely known as being one of the best, if not the best fighter and enforcer to ever play hockey, in 16 NHL seasons he fought 285 NHL fights with a record of 176-50-59 and many enforcers considered him the toughest and most feared fighter in the NHL and with an un-matched penchant for running the goaltender. He also kept it RAL off the ice, in 1989 he was arrested for cocaine possession while crossing the Detroit-Windsor border. He served three months in a federal prison in Minnesota, three more months in a halfway house, and was indefinitely suspended from the NHL. While playing for the Detroit Red Wings in the 1980s and early '90s, Probert served a prison term when he was caught trying to carry cocaine into the United States from Canada. He also had an alchohol problem and was charged with numerous driving offences. Probert was placed on inactive status for the 1994-95 season after he was involved in a motorcycle accident and tests showed alcohol and cocaine in his system. In 2004 Delray Beach police officers spotted Probert as he parked his white BMW sport utility vehicle the wrong way on a downtown side street and began hanging out of his window to yell at several men just before 1 a.m., officers said. Four officers intervened when Probert, a native of Windsor, Ont., got out of the car and tried to start a fight with one of the men. He then fought with the officers and refused their orders to drop to the ground, the report said. As two of the officers struggled to handcuff Probert, one officer shot him with a Taser gun and he fell backward. But Probert resisted their efforts when they tried to handcuff him, so the cop used the Taser to stun Probert several more times. The gun shoots barbed probes that give the recipient a usually non-lethal but incapacitating shock. After Probert was shocked, officers handcuffed him and took him into custody. "He was so combative in our jail that we didn't take a booking photo of him because we didn't want to struggle with him again out of handcuffs," police spokesman Jeff Messer said. Probie lives the RAL lifestyle to the fullest.
