Steve Thomas, who's played 78 tournaments on the PGA and Champions Tours (though none since 2010), was among 40 people arrested in an Osceola County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office sting operation. "Operation Red Cheeks" set Thomas up to believe he was negotiating for sex with a minor. More »

Last Friday, we told you about all the insanity surrounding the release of the latest iteration of the Air Jordan. One incident left a man stabbed seven times and passing in and out of consciousness. He was rushed to Jersey City Medical Center where he was treated for non-life threatening wounds. According to Jersey City police, the man on the left is the suspected stabber. More »

Panther Kion Wilson was parked outside a Charlotte Best Buy on Monday afternoon when someone broke into his pickup truck and stole four guns. Wilson lost a Glock 23, a 12-gauge shotgun, a FN Five-seven handgun and an unspecified Smith & Wesson. If you have any information that could put these guns back in the hands of a backup linebacker, please contact Charlotte police. [WCNC] More »

Nike re-released the Air Jordan XIs early this morning, which led to mini riots, gun shots, babies trapped in cars, and lots of blown paychecks (they run about $180 retail). But it wouldn't be a Jordan sneaker release day without a wash of mall crime across the country, would it? Here's a roundup of today's Nike-related crime. More »

Last Friday evening, two Boston-area youth hockey teams got together for their own Winter Classic, to be held outside at the Anderson Rink in Brookline. It was going to be a good time: an exhibition game between the Boch Blazers and the Boston Junior Blackhawks, followed by a family skate and a pizza party. (Each parent was to chip in $5-$10 dollars for the pizza.) It reportedly ended with TV analyst Mike Milbury getting involved with an on-ice fight between his son and an opposing player, grabbing and shaking that 12-year-old and screaming in his face. More »

Milbury, the outspoken TV analyst and former Bruins defenseman who has vehemently protested the "pansification" of hockey, is also a coach of a youth hockey team in Massachusetts. At a game in Brookline, last week, something happened. Details are scarce, but WCVB in Boston is reporting that Milbury was charged with assault and battery, and the 12-year-old victim was a player on the opposing team. More »

Making sex in the bathroom is never the brightest nor most hygienic idea, to say nothing of the typical stall conditions at an NFL stadium used by 70,000 people. That goes for fucking on the floor of the pristine new Cowboys Stadium, and it definitely goes for whatever two grade school teachers were caught doing in the can at the 38-year-old Ralph Wilson Stadium.

Maybe there was a reason Seahawks defensive end Raheem Brock felt he was within his rights pull a dine and dash on a $27 tab at a Philly restaurant, his conviction for which we told you about last week. It seems Brock is used to getting preferential treatment from police in Philly and in other places. Philadelphia magazine inquired into Brock's DUI arrest in Seattle late last year, only to find the paperwork had gone missing. And after getting tangled in red tape, the magazine finally got its hands on the documents. More »

A Chicago man was charged Monday with breaking into White Sox manager Kenny Williams' home and "taking several articles of clothing, a set of keys and jewelry," including a World Series ring. He also reportedly "drank his beer, ate frozen pizza, surfed the internet," and "defrosted a lobster." This man was not in a rush. [NBC Chicago, H/T Last Angry Fan] More »

A puppy—allegedly a Yorkie—escaped from the back of a vehicle that had been a part of a rollover crash on the freeway in Tempe, Ariz., on Wednesday. Because it's Friday, we set video of the ensuing police chase to NWA's "Fuck Tha Police" in an attempt to make the baddest Yorkie alive even badder. Even with that, it's still pretty adorable. More »

Soon after we learned about the Booty Lounge, the mobile strip club that's been idling near Detroit's Ford Field during every Lions tailgate for the past decade or so, we heard from a few former patrons. And after finding the priceless Yelp review from a former scorned freelancer for the club that you'll see below, we thought it would be wise to gather some more honest appraisals of the place—especially since its future is now in peril.

A reader, who only wants credit to go to "Colin," has sent in this exhaustive guide to the Hack-A-Shaq saga that we've been dutifully (and somewhat regrettably) following for the past few weeks.

If you can keep track of the Miami New Times's Hack-a-Shaq saga, then we salute you. It is an overlapping jumbled mess of blackmailing and threats and nearly indecipherable text messages. We tried drawing a visual aid for all of the accusations cataloged here, but we gave up, because there are, like, three mistresses named Vanessa, and they all think that Shaquille O'Neal had it in for them.

In the hours before dawn on Sunday, Mourning smashed his Porsche into a disabled car on a Miami Beach causeway, sending it rolling. Mourning got out of his car, went to check on the victim (he was not seriously injured) and drove home, where he called police and later returned to the scene in his wife's car. These are facts that are not in dispute. Now the man is suing Mourning, saying he acted negligently by failing to call the police at the accident scene. More »
