In the most compelling event from last night’s All-Star events, Charles Barkley defeated veteran NBA referee Dick Bavetta in a foot race. The race came about because Barkley claimed back in January, while doing color commentary on a TNT game, that he could beat the 67-year-old Bavetta in a foot race. Bavetta heard about this […]

The word “Sports” is right there on the cover, so it’s appropriate. Like you’d care anyways.

You’d think this would be a problem involving the local Boston government, given their tendency to blow things completely out of proportion. It’s not though, this is the federal government having a Louisville Slugger up its collective ass. For you see, the immortal, Gyroballing, yet-to-throw-a-MLB-pitch Daisuke Matsuzaka appears in a beer commercial in which he […]

Something feels right. All my cynicism is just melting away, if just for today. Today, there’s something different. Something happy. Something…springy.
In some Suessian turn-of-events, my heart grew three sizes. Tomorrow we can talk steroids and sex, cash and cops, but today. Today is for the joy of sports. It still exists, somewhere. Probably in Florida […]

The following video is misleading. You might assume that Sean Taylor is a badass and Brian Moorman is some punk punter. This is the wrong assumption. Sean Taylor is an overrated, undisciplined safety who goes for the big hit so recklessly that he forgets to, you know, cover people. Brian Moorman is the punter […]

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, seriously? Hahahahahahahahahahaha. You’re kidding right? No way. Jeesh man.
There are so few happy days as a Giants fan, just let me enjoy this for a day or two. I promise I’ll be pissed about Coughlin and Eli soon enough.

John Edwards, you have officially lost any chance of ever being president. Why? You ask. Well, it’s because of your official campaign song.
John Edwards
Song: “This is Our Country”
Artist: John Mellencamp
Sample Lyric:
“The dream is still alive
Some day it will come true
And this country it belongs
To folks like me and you
So let the voice of freedom
Sing out […]

Yeah, so the Colts have now won two of the sloppiest Super Bowls (yesterday’s and number V). I’m not sure what that means about the franchise, but I wouldn’t be too happy if I were a Colts fan. Actually, I’d be Rex-tatic. You just won the Super Bowl. Who cares how crappy the game was […]

Earlier this week, Agent Zero (aka Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas) had a little bet going with teammate DeShawn Stevenson. Arenas wagered 20 Gs that out of 100 shots he could hit more college-range 3-pointers one-handed than Stevenson could from NBA-range and shooting normally. Twenty thousand? Really? That’s enough money to place a family above the […]

Fulham 2 – Newcastle 1: American Brian McBride led the Fulham to victory over Newcastle. The game was notable because four American field-players saw action in the match. New to Newcastle on loan, Oguchi Onyewu made his massive presence known by clattering about Fulham’s attack, yet, he was fortunate to not be booked. Other Americans […]

Forty-year-old Gail Devers prevailed over an impressive field in the 60-meter hurdles at the 100th Millrose Games. The 2004 Olympic champion, one of Devers’ students and a former world champion were all in the field. Devers had a child 19 months ago and still managed to run the fastest time in the world this season.
The […]

In the NFL’s never-ending quest to make sure it is as difficult as possible to actually enjoy an NFL game. (See: NFL Sunday Ticket available only on DirecTV.) The NFL has decided you’re not allowed to watch the Super Bowl on a large screen. Especially if you’re a church.
The NFL has shut down Indianapolis-area Fall […]
