Jon Barry likely doesn’t remember this night from last summer. Between booze, a round of golf, more drink and the door prize drawing, it can be hard to keep track of what occurred at a golf outing.

But these Flickr photos show the ESPN NBA analyst might have forgotten his golf game, but he really enjoyed the company of the Cuervo Girls.

Britton Colquitt, fourth in the line of FFOTVP (First Family of Tennessee Volunteer Punters), won’t be kicking in the first five games of 2008 and will have to pay for school out of his own pocket after getting popped for DUI when he hit a parked car over the weekend.

THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN reports the news, and more interestingly notes that this is far from Colquitt’s first incident — in fact, you can safely say this is a pattern, as the punter was suspended by coach Philip Fulmer in 2004 for “four alcohol related incident[s] in a six-month span,” including three underage drinking citations in 12 days.

We’re sure NASCAR executives trying to lock down deals with upscale advertisers will be pleased with the ORLANDO SENTINEL’s breakdown of the infield denizens attending this year’s Daytona 500:

John Parker, a St. Petersburg carpenter, and his friends sleep in tents and shower with water piped from a garbage can heated by a turkey fryer.

Hank Evitts, 48, of Leonardtown, Md., hangs a plastic deer head from a tiki bar at the front of his RV site. What startles passers-by is when the deer’s lips move and it starts talking to them — Evitts controls it through a wireless microphone.

Brilliant. Well, there’s at least one company that fits that air condition-free target demographic perfectly.

Our favorite part of the piece though involved a South Florida couple who, like many of their fellow NASCAR fans, is a little down on their luck. Read more…

Is TMZ working on a sports division? This season, they’ve been all over Tom Brady and Tony Romo, and now they’re working the low end of jock DUIs. Now better known as the brother of former USC QB John David Booty, former LSU QB Josh Booty was busted for DUI in Orange County yesterday, and then tasered later for being less than cooperative.

Since TMZ’s lacking a bit in actual info, we go to the ASSOCIATED PRESS, citing a sheriff’s lieutenant that Booty “fell to the ground, struck his head on the table on the way to the ground and sustained a black eye”after being Tased during the booking process.

Where the MSM’s disdain doesn’t bother us as much as it bothers Shaq:

• Imitation must be the sincerest form of flattery, as The NEW YORK POST appreciates a good animated gif when they see one:

• One of Dan Patrick’s favorite daily web stops has been offline for over a year.

• Some Pro Bowlers are con about taking the trip to Hawaii.

• Bills owner Ralph Wilson says his team’s not shuffling off from Buffalo - yet.

• Now ladies can replace their mother’s milk with a nice merlot, with the booze bra know as the Wine Rack:

• Curt Schilling might not be able to shoulder a whole ‘nother season with the Red Sox.

• New York DC Steve Spagnuolo uses the other D.C. to get a Giant raise.

• Wednesday’s US-Mexico soccer match was such a “friendly” game that two people were shot afterwards.

The WASHINGTON POST reports that the National Football League is finally getting tough on the terrible scourge that slowly destroying their sport - churches throwing Super Bowl parties.

Places of worship have been using Super Sunday parties as a way to bring parishoners together outside of their weekly chapel service - and hopefully bring some members back into the flock.

Rev. Thomas Omholt of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in D.C. explains such an event “takes people who are not coming frequently, or who have fallen away, and shows them that the church can still have some fun.”

But that’s why the NFL is sometimes known as the “No Fun League”.

The Super Bowl’s not the only big event in town this week, as the FBR Open is currently underway in Scottsdale.

The golf tournament is known as being one of the rowdiest on the PGA Tour. And the ARIZONA REPUBLIC reports such a reputation has forced officials to adopt a new alcohol policy this year. Spectators wanting to purchase some suds will have to wear a wristband, and each consumer is limited to a two-drink maximum at the concession stands.

However, it doesn’t seem to be working that well so far.

Greg Oden was the guest of honor for a big birthday bash last Friday night. Too bad he couldn’t go.

The PORTLAND OREGONIAN reports that the Blazers rookie had to miss out on the scheduled celebration held at the Roseland Theater. Over 800 attendees paid the $15 cover to partake in the music and intake in the alcohol.

Problem is Oden just turned 20 - still a year away from legal drinking age. And another concern for Oden & his agents was Toyota’s sponsorship of the event - since Greg has an endorsement contract with Chevrolet.

Oh, well - there’s always next year. By then, he might finally be healthy enough to dance again.

The Glendale City Council made it rain on Adrian Ross’ parade, as the former Cincinnati Bengal couldn’t get a liquor license to hold a Super Bowl party at the host city’s only strip club.

The ARIZONA REPUBLIC reports that Ross was hoping to get some NFL folks to show up at Pink Caberet for nine days of pregame partying. But the council denied his request to get a special-event liquor license for the nude club. Arizona state regulations don’t allow alcohol at full nudie bars.

Without the booze, the party appears to be a bust. Worst of all, it’s the children who’ll suffer.
