Vince Young will start for the Tennessee Titans on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.
The Titans said they chose Young over Matt Leinart or local favorite Jay Cutler in the draft because of his potential. Coach Jeff Fisher promised he wouldn’t start Young until the rookie was ready.
Let me get this straight, Vince Young, who scored […]

Earlier this week it was announced that Mets pitcher Pedro Martinez will miss the playoffs this year. Today it was revealed that Pedro will have rotator cuff surgery and won’t pitch again until the middle of next season. That means Pedro will have lots of time to play in his garden and talk to his […]

While 6′7″ Liverpool striker and ‘Robot’ dancing Peter Crouch was scoring two goals (including this spectacular one to the left) during a Champions League victory over Turkish squad Galatasary, “yobs were ripping apart his home” in Britain it is reported. For those of you, like me, that are unfamiliar with yobs check this out. From the report:
They […]

Everton 1 – Manchester City 1: Andrew Johnson scored his sixth for Everton, but Man City pulled a rabbit out of the hat with an equalizer in the 4th minute of stoppage time. The game, however, got a little cheeky when a Man City player, Joey Barton, is alleged to have pulled a “Randy Moss […]

San Diego 1 – Arizona 3: Keeping it interesting are the Padres, who are now tied with the Dodgers in the NL West.
Rutgers 22 – USF 20: The Scarlet Knights […]

You’ve sat too comfortable in your numberless jersey for too long now. The natural evolution of sports assistants is upon us! The future is now! Monkey ball boys are here, next monkey the bat boys and soon, monkey personal trainers — with adorable monkey syringes filled with monkey steroids. You can’t compete with that, awkard […]

She’s got man hands. She has the hands of a man. Which would apparently make her more athletic. According to a British study, women with longer ring fingers than index fingers (which is typical for men) had more sports accomplishments over the course of their lifetime than those with the “normal” ring-to-index ratio.
I’ve heard of […]

Phillies 8, Nationals 7 (14 Innings) - Philadelphia pulled one out in extra innings, keeping them close in the wild card race so that they can tragically lose closer to the end of the season.
Astros 7, Pirates 6 (15 Innings) - The ‘Stros really needed this one, as the Cardinals actually won a game yesterday.
Padres […]

C’mon TO. If this was a suicide attempt — and officially, it won’t be — it was the cry-for-help type instead of an actual failed suicide try. TO’s going to be fine, he’s getting the attention he craves. But attempted suicide, TO? That’s something more along the lines of Todd Pinkston. You’re better than that.

Padres 7, Cardinals 5 - Well, as long as the Astros didn’t win, the Cardinals should be alright.
Astros 7, Pirates 4 - Oh, well, nevermind.
Tigers 4, Blue Jays 3 - No one wants to play the Yankees.
Yankees 5, Orioles 4 - Especially with their pitching juggernaut, Corey Lidle.

After years of being a laughingstock professional football team playing in an old college stadium, Arizona St.’s Sundevil Stadium, the Cardinals are now a laughingstock professional football team playing in a new stadium named after a college. The University of Phoenix has bought the naming rights to the previously unnamed Cardinals Stadium. This really is […]

That would be a totally apt metaphor if the Nats were any good to begin with.

John L. Smith, in an apparent attempt to deflect attention from his team’s annual tremendous collapse, has gone after Charlie Weis’ insinuation that an MSU player slapped him during a sideline scuffle. Weis stated in his post-game press conference that he was slapped at some point during the ruckus, but said it could have been […]

Politicians. Read all about their misdeeds and deeds (which will eventually turn into misdeeds) over at Dejuiced’s brother, Sirened. Keep an eye out for athletes-turned-politicians using sports metaphors way to often.

Twins 8, Royals 1 - The Twins clinched the last AL playoff spot, ousting the White Sox. Now, if they were outing the White Sox, Ozzie Guillen would be even more upset.
Indians 14, White Sox 1 - Chicago, you’re ousted. Didn’t you read the above?
Yankees 16, Devil Rays 1 - That’s an awful lot of […]

Jay Gibbons, Baltimore Oriole DH, hit his wife…amazingly with a foul ball. Really. Bretty Myers could learn a lot from Gibbons. This is a much less blatant form of spousal abuse. Gibbons is able to play the whole thing off as an accident, which is much more difficult if he say, punched her in the […]
