EA Games Clearly Not Paying Attention to the Music Industry

So the new hotness in video games is apparently going the way of the dying music industry. Word is EA Games is going to be using some controversial internet-required digital rights management on its new games. Now, I don’t know much about DRM, but I do know is that it sounds like a venereal disease […]

Image details: Pacific Life Open Day 14 served by picapp.com
So the big news in the women’s tennis and golf world today is the retirement of Justine Henin and Annika Sorenstam, respectively. Much is to be made about how these great athletes are stepping down in their prime and blah blah blah have you seen […]

Chris Cooley and Men Looking at Men Peeing

Image details: Washington Redskins 2007 Headshots served by picapp.com
If you haven’t heard, Chris Cooley of the Washington Redskins has his own blog over with Yahoo! Sports. It’s highly entertaining if you want to know the thoughts of a pro football player or, say, if you want to know what it’s like to pee while another […]

From the Stupid Idea Book: Shark Surfing

See more funny videos at CollegeHumor
I can’t decide if this guy has incredible brass or is incredibly stupid — or if the video is even real. I’m thinking/hoping it’s a fake because, not only does this guy remind me of how much of a gigantic wuss I am, but it also shows that surfers are […]

Foul Ball(s)!

There’s something uniquely mesmerizing about this photo. Maybe it’s the look on the guy’s face after he completely missed the ball and it hit him in the nuts — something about that look says, “Good thing I only need one.” Or maybe it’s the reaction of all the fans around the guy — […]

The Chinese Plan To Torture Our Athletes

Meet Liu Qi. Liu has many hobbies, not the least of which is being the current president of Beijing’s Olympic Organizing Committee, being the former Chinese Minister of Commerce and torturing people (from Truthdig):
In an extensive legal opinion, the U.S. District Court in San Francisco determined that Liu was responsible for the illegal detention […]

Streaker Can Climb Fences, Has Death Wish

You have to admire streakers; it takes an awful lot of courage to get completely naked and run in front of thousands of people knowing it will all end in you being tackled and getting arrested.
That being said, this YouTube clip of a streaker at an MMA match makes me think this guy is more […]

Lasorda Knows All About Being a Pope

 

I have no idea what to make of the news that Tommy Lasorda was invited by President Bush to greet Pope Benedict in Washington this morning. Really, I’m still trying to get over the fact that this isn’t even the first Pope he’s met:
“Lasorda, who has frequently been called on to serve in dignitary roles […]

The Death Of Sports: European Soccer Edition

As far as I’m concerned, there is no better equipped football team in Europe, nay, the world, than FC Barcelona. Ronaldinho, Messi, Henry, Deco, Valdez, Xavi, Iniesta, Abidal, Puyol, and on and on, really, woul any professional footballer actually want to play against these guys? Who on Earth could possibly want to mess that up?
Oh, […]

This Just In: Foosball Designers Terrible at Foosball

OK, that might be an unfair statement — I don’t really know if those people playing foosball actually designed the table. But as the video shows, they do certainly suck at the sport. Why the people that designed this stunning work of bar-game art (called “11: The Beautiful Game”) chose to showcase it on YouTube […]

More Conspiracy Theories: Communists Invade Washington!

Image details: NHL All-Star Dodge/NHL SuperSkills Competition served by picapp.com
Full disclosure: I’m a closet hockey fan. Back in D.C. during the 90s, there weren’t any real quality teams to root for except for the Capitals (and the Orioles, but that’s a subject better left alone). So yes, the Capitals recent turnaround has me a wee […]

Update: The Chinese Plan to Kill the Sky

Yahoo! may be getting bought out by AOL, but that’s not doing anything to prevent them from warning us of the impending DEATH OF THE WORLD.
Clearly, the Chinese will stop at nothing so that their precious “torch” make it to their precious “Olympic Opening Ceremonies” even if it means stopping God himself should he/she/it decide […]

The Death Of Sports: Olympic Torch Edition

by Alejandro de los Rios

First impressions are hard. Usually forced, awkward, with all parties just wishing they could somehow just skip getting to know each other and just know each other. You know? Some first impressions are perfect, most are awkward, while some are just completely disasterous. With that in mind, what better way to […]

“My Quick Smells Like French Toast”

Just like the Super Bowl, or any event that involves watching a ridiculous amount of television, the commercials have become an integral part of the March Madness experience. Perhaps even more so for March Madness. It isn’t just one event, it’s a series of weekends where one watches the same channel constantly, watching the same […]

Everyone Is Out to Get Bode Miller

You know what, I might have liked it better back when Bode Miller was drunk and didn’t give a crap about winning gold medals. He might still be drunk, but he appears to give many craps about winning the World Cup. (And he doesn’t even play soccer!) The final downhill even of the World Cup […]

More Off-Seasoning — Spicy!

- The Falcons cut Joey Harrington, which is what you do with Joey Harrington.
- Oakland signed Javon Walker, who is like a less-talented, but more-infuriating version of Randy Moss. Good work Raiders.
- The Patriots signed a cornerback named Webster, who is not the cornerback named Webster who played exceedingly well during the Giants Super Bowl […]
