There are so many questions surrounding Jose Canseco's latest cry for SHOTY recognition. Why does the paparazzi still follow him around? How did he manage to take three lovely ladies home with him the other night? Is he any less of a gentleman for getting the door for only one of them? What's a reasonable explanation for why he would sign but not pose with fans while camera flashes flicker all about him? And, did he accomplish his goal? (H/T Top Prospect Alert) More »

The worst part of this brawl video between American Legion teams from Cherryville, NC and Douglasville, Ga.? You can see the Cherryville run scorer say something to the Douglasville catcher — presumably something like "Cherryville rules!" — but you can't really see the ball the catcher threw at the run scorer immediately thereafter hitting its target (0:18 in).

One wishes there were a way to succinctly explain what the hell went on this weekend in the North American Baseball League.

Day Two of the latest Jose Canseco sad-clown meltdown saw him preaching from the mountaintop ("Be careful with woman who show off there tits and ass and think that's a career"), real-talking ("I will never forget or forgive what u said to me leila ur evil"), serving as the phone company's Green Pages ("Compliments of vanessa call leila 9257191217 don't forget bring the pot") and spell-checking ("wholesome").

The controversy over Jose Canseco's no-show at one of his silly celebrity boxing matches has reached almost a full week of coverage thanks to the public piss-off between Jose and promoter Damon Feldman. Did Jose knowingly dick over the fight promoter and send his twin brother Ozzie to fight for him? Did the promoter knowingly try to dupe his paying public by willfully trying to pass off Ozzie as Jose? Do you want to stick your head inside the oven and let the gentle gas take you away from all this? No shame in that if you do. More »
