Morning Roundup: Does this outfit make me look PHAT?!






Happy Monday to you! Look at it this way, at least you're not a player on the Czech national hockey team. More specifically, at least you're not Jaromír Jágr.

-Jágr LITERALLY got knocked on his ass by the apparently unstoppable force that is Alexander Ovechkin, "a force of nature that unleashed its proud fury Sunday for all to see in Russia's 4-2 win over its Slavic neighbor." I know sports journalists are prone to hyperbole, but Michael Farber sounds like he's writing for the Kremlin.
-Related: Czech athletes are bringin' the SEXY! Or, bringin' the migraines, depending on who you ask.
-Where is your favorite place to drink in Prague? If you said subterranean, filth-encrusted casino bars in Metro stations, you're in luck, because the Transportation Authority hearts them too!
-The Civic Democrats (ODS) have seen the future, and it looks blue and homogenous. Also, party chair Mirek Topolánek haz a sad in the photo.
UPDATE: Topolánek also has a divorce! Which is sort of non-news, since he's been living with his lovah and baby momma, Lucie Talmanova, since 2007. Talmanova is the deputy chairwoman of the Chamber of Deputies for ODS. Seriously, it's different over here, y'all! John Edwards did the same damn thing and he is possibly the most reviled man in the U.S. right now. Meanwhile Mirek didn't skip a beat.

  1. Ill choice of picture to illustrate the story, too. She's wearing sunglasses and he's just sort of vaguely gesturing - you know, the typical signs of two people getting a divorce.
