If you thought the Elton John Eminem team up was weird… it may have just gotten more bizarre. NHL star Alexander Ovechkin told Russian LIFE that he is in talks with the rapper to collaborate on a rap duet.
“This would be a big honor for me as I am a real fan of Eminem,” said the Washington Capitals captain. “I always have his CDs in my car. I will be happy just to meet him. By the way, the film ’8 Mile’ with Eminem starring is simply awesome.”
Ovechkin’s announcement of a possible collaboration with Eminem comes on the heels of JJ Redick announcing his rap album.
Can someone please tell Ovechkin that meeting Eminem is a lot different than recording a song with him.

Dallas Cowboys rookie Dez Bryant caught a lot of flack during NFL training camp after he refused to carry veteran Roy Williams’ practice pads. The Cowboys got their revenge on Bryant after they stuck the rookie with the $55,000 bill at a steakhouse. The team was out to dinner at Pappas Bros Steakhouse in Dallas, with many of the teammates taking to Twitter to boast about the food.
Miles Austin: “Food is crazy here!!!”
Jesse Holley: “Woke up this morning and scramble me some cheese eggs to go w/ my left over 20oz Kobe steak from last night. Mmmmmmm!”
Felix Jones wrote before the dinner: “Our offensive rookies are buying dinner … I remember those days. Sure don’t miss them the least bit.”
Since the July hazing scandal, Bryant has tried to make nice, buying his fellow receivers Air Jordan Olympic 7s. Bryant even gave Williams the Madden NFL 11 video game as a peace offering.
Bon appetite Bryant!
