One of the few sites we check unrelated to sports is the Drudge Report, because it provides a quick and convenient snap shot of the current stories of note from the non-sports world.

Sometimes, however, something happens in the sports world that becomes worthy of Drudge.  Today, a link to the Javon Walker situation appears under the heading “NFL STAR’S ABDUCTION CLAIM; VEGAS MYSTERY.”

The site then links to a recent item from the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which quotes the quote of Walker from TheDirty.com, in which Walker provides his “Land Shark” explanation for the robbery.  (And, yeah, Taco Bill has come up with a special Pic of the Day on this point.)

Here’s a new tidbit we noticed in the Review-Journal article:  The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported that, according to police, robbers put Walker in a car and beat him up.  It’s got some of the same elements of Walker’s explanation, except for the fact that Walker says he was beat up — and knocked the f–k out — before being put in the car.

The Vegas newspaper also addresses the issue of champagne showers. 

“It’s just lighting the fuse,” one club operator told the Review-Journal. “Things can flare up quick.”

Said a representative from another club:  “We consider it the same as throwing your drink on someone.  When it happens at our club, they are escorted out immediately.”
