You may recall a few weeks ago that the Big Ten Conference mascots made a video. Sadly they left our Purdue Pete and Northwestern’s Willie. Those two got together and came up with this little gem to Lady Gaga’s “Telephone.”

What are your thoughts on this video? Clearly Pete and Willie are far too busy to bother with any “Call Me Maybe” parodies. Also, why does Pete have a cell phone while Willie uses a pay phone?

Guys, this could be me and Jose for just $1.50/day!

It’s probably time that we check back in with our favorite Tweeter…

Since we last saw Jose, he was asking for All Star votes (let’s just forget he doesn’t play in the MLB) and pondering running for President or Governor of “New England”.  So what sort of shenanigans has he been up to since?

Could Gaga be the next Mrs. Canseco?

Oh, hey, look what I found!  A Canseco Chronicle from a month ago that I never posted!  A little dated, but who cares, right?

After a brief hiatus from Twitter (and nearly killing this writer), Jose is back and cruder than ever.  Last we saw of Canseco, he was trolling the Twitters for twats, so what has he been up to since?  I’m glad you asked…

I bet it was Al Gore.  I think you pissed off the ghost of the man who intented the Internet.

I admit that I did not watch the entire Pittsburgh Steelers and Denver Broncos game last night. Once 8:00 PM hit, it was time for me to turn on one of my favorite shows, Once Upon A Time, which was back to showing new episodes. However, once the commercials came on, I would check Twitter for game updates.

My feed was blowing up with Tim Tebow tweets. Then, I read that he and the Broncos won the game with an 80 yard pass to Demaryius Thomas for a touchdown. I was happy that Tebow did it again. I mean, how can you not cheer for the guy?

One of the highlights of a Formula 1 weekend beyond the race itself are the related concerts in the F1 Rocks series. Not every race is special enough to have one, but the lineups tend to be huge.

The inaugural Indian Grand Prix this weekend was supposed to feature a Metallica concert on Friday night, but it was cancelled for technical reasons. It was going to be the band’s first concert ever in India. A couple of the F1 Rocks events have had their share of problems: Eminem’s concert for the 2010 Brazilian race went on as planned in the rain, and David Guetta had to go on an hour late because of software problems at Valencia this year.

Luckily, Lady Gaga was also booked for Sunday night after the race  so all was not lost. I was honestly glad to find out the concerts were not together, because Metallica and Lady Gaga is something I’m pretty sure everyone expects only in mashups.

Several drivers took to Twitter to express their excitement for Gaga’s concert. In the case of Jenson Button, this might be a little too much.

For those unfamiliar with John Button, the father of the 2009 world champion, the man is never seen without a pink shirt or a giant smile. But Lady Gaga fan? I hope he made his son join him! Rubens Barrichello retweeted this with a “me too,” but that wasn’t his last mention!

Rubens Barrichello: precious enough to let you know where he’ll be at all times.

Lady Gaga also happened to be performing in Melbourne around the time of the Australian Grand Prix in 2010, so a few lucky driver fans have seen her a couple times now. One of those men is Heikki Kovalainen. Despite his claimed preference for Nightwish, he is clearly a Gaga fan. Don’t deny it, Heikki. Embrace your guilty pleasure.

Best of all, Heikki even provided a quick review of the show.

It’s only fair to assume seven time world champion Michael Schumacher joined him for this concert too. I have a feeling some of the boys may fess up on their attendance soon enough!

F1 Rocks currently has plans for Melbourne and Malaysia next season. Since this event started with the first Singapore Grand Prix, it could be likely we see one of these big concerts with the 2012 United States Grand Prix, just over a year away. If anything, the Austin, Texas, location means there’s music all around anyway. Sometimes you just need more than the sound of 18,000 RPM.

Lady Gaga took in Monday night’s Giants victory dressed in well, what you’d expect Gaga to wear.

She did show off her Giants spirit though — pairing her couture dress with a blue NY Giants hat.

She’s also shown pouring champagne over the railing of her VIP box.
