SERENA WILLIAMS NUDE PHOTO REGRETTABLY SURFACES: LARRY BROWN SPORTS asks the (presumably rhetorical) question: “Are you excited about Serena Williams posing nude?”:

Larry scares up the recently published nude photo of our favorite fashion designer and observes, “So, I’ve heard this met with conflicting opinion. Some people feel Serena is the sexiest being on Earth. They say she’s pretty, athletic, curvy, and toned. Others feel she is way too bulky*, muscular to the point of having a man’s body. You know, I could see the argument from both sides. I think Serena definitely has a cultural flavor to her. Especially if you like the bootay.”(* - FAT)

We like the bootay, too (see Vida Guerra photos in an earlier post today), but it appears SW might consider repping up on the nearest Hack squat sled.

WELCOME TO INTERVIEWING 101, JOURNO SCHOOL KIDDOS: T.J. Simers of the LOSS ANGELES TIMES punctured Kobe Bryant’s verbal gasbag in a media gangbang over the weekend in Vegas.

It’s rich reading, as Simers forces Bryant to admit that:
1) he is a “baby”
2) he sent mixed messages to Lakers fans
3) he apologized to Andrew Bynum
4) ESPN’s Ric Bucher is his bitch
5) the Lakers front office might not be half-bad after all

But because of Koke fatigue (and since Bucher accidently sheared off half his soul patch - and wasn’t available to ask a question), you didn’t hear about it outside of L.A. We’re guessing there will be more to the story this morning on KLAC-AM, where Simers hosts a morning show with NBC’s Fred Roggin (and T.J.’s daughter Tracy).

And we’ll appreciate if you’ll listen and email us the details, since we’ll be asleep (dreaming about this Vida Guerra getup) during the program.
