  • Jessica Mendoza Replaces Curt Schilling on ESPN

    Jessica Mendoza is replacing Curt Schilling, reporting baseball on ESPN’s Sunday Night Baseball for the remainder of the season. A two-time Olympic medalist and a Women’s Sports Foundation Sportswoman of the Year, Jessica Mendoza is also a member of the International Latin Sports Hall of Fame. Fans might have missed hearing her as a baseball announcer, however, had it not been for Curt Schilling’s recent comparison of Muslims to Nazis, in a Tweet that got him suspended for the rest of the baseball season. Schillings defense of said Tweets didn’t help him out any either.

    Jessica Mendoza actually went on to make history as a baseball reporter when she announced the Cardinals-Dodgers game on August 24th.

    “I was nervous,” Jessica Mendozan said in a recent interview with the New York Times. “I definitely tried to prepare as if I’d done it a million times so it wouldn’t seem like anything unique. My heart was pumping in the first inning like it was in the first inning of an Olympic game. But after that first at-bat–boom! It felt comfortable.”

    Curt Schilling was impressed enough to compliment his ESPN fill in.

    “Jessica Mendoza is a pro, I don’t care that she got to hit a ball twice the size of ours,” he wrote. “She is likely the greatest hitter in the history of Womens Fastpitch.

    Do you think ESPN will allow Curt Schilling to resume his position once his suspension has ended?

    Is there any chance that Jessica Mendoza might become his permanent replacement?

  • Eva Longoria Shares Beauty Secrets, Says Everyone Has Time to Exercise

    Eva Longoria of Desperate Housewives says everyone has time to fit in exercise no matter how hectic their schedules might be, no excuses.

    Looking fabulous at 40, the actress says it’s not secret how she keeps her figure trim. She takes the time to fit in exercise. She told Vogue Australia that most people don’t realize that there is always time in the day to work in some time to get out and work out.

    “You waste more time than you think. People say, ‘I don’t have time to work out, I don’t have time to do this.’ When you just commit to it and you all of a sudden prioritise you realise, ‘Oh wait, I did have time,’” Eva Longoria said.

    Staying in shape is now more important than ever for Longoria, who acknowledges that it is hard and it does take time, but it’s well worth it for health and looking your best.

    She advises people who try to avoid the gym to “just do it”, but also points out how important eating well is too.

    “Especially as you get older, people want to know the secret to looking good and there is no secret. It’s diet and exercise. People say they eat well but they don’t exercise. Or they run 20 miles a day but they can’t lose weight. You have to do both,” said Eva Longoria.

    Eva says it’s also good to shake it up from time to time, depending on the goal and what works best for you.

    “It depends [on what job I’m prepping for]. I’ll do a cleanse to feel better but I’ll do no sugar to lose weight or I’ll do vegan to lean out. Everything has a different reaction,” Eva Longoria outlined.
