Rocky Rip-off?

Mark Wahlberg became agitated recently when an OMdoubleG interviewer asked him if he thought The Fighter was just a Rocky re-tread.

“That’s absurd,” barked the 39-year-old Marky Mark. “One is about a small-time fighter who gets a title shot, and the other is about a little-known boxer who fights for a championship.”

Wahlberg went on to reveal that The Fighter 2 is currently in production and will feature an epic battle between his character, Micky Ward and Arturo Gatti – played by Carl Weathers.

NFL = No Freaking Loot

Running back Adrian Peterson raised a few eyebrows this week when he compared the current NFL lockout to slavery.

Peterson, who makes a paltry $19 million a year in salary and endorsements, has been getting a lot of support from his peers.

ESPN Analyst Bob Merrick says the NFL needs to make things right.  “While it may seem like these players make a lot, it’s not like they get free health care or pensions.”

When informed that players actually get both, Merrick retracted his statement and called the Vikings star a “greedy prick.”
