That's sitting atop this piece on ESPN-it's on ESPN's frontpage headline feed as "Cowboys' Bryant gets permission to be out late"-about Dez Bryant's 24th birthday, which is tomorrow. Dez has been living under strict rules, enforced by Cowboys employees and personal advisers, ever since he assaulted his mother in July.…

Let's see now. Uh huh. Right, right, right. Eight years in the NBA with, uh, four teams. And you know, I just loved that Saint Joe's team you played for. What year was that, ‘04? And who was it, John Lucas who made that shot that kept you guys out of the Final Four? That had to just … yeah, yeah, sorry. But what a run …

Delonte West was sick last night, but still managed to play 27 minutes and score five points on two of five shooting. Then he presumably went home a puked all over the place, took a picture and exclaimed "I think that's the last of it....I feel like my soul just tried to get out my body...gotd#mn!!!"

Delonte West's been a source of our amusement for some time, but his antics have run him afoul of the law—and NBA referees—more often than not. He somehow escaped ejection for tonight's shenanigans, in which he shoved a finger in Jazz swingman Gordon Hayward's ear in the second quarter of the Dallas-Utah game in…

It's not clear why this guy wore his anti-LeBron shirt to a 76ers-Bulls game in Chicago, but he really wanted to make sure WGN viewers got to see it for themselves. Maybe it's the only green article of clothing he owns, and he didn't want any strangers pinching him. [WGN]

When he wasn't playing basketball games this weekend, Delonte West spent his days engaged in leisurely Twitter meltdowns: He complained about his salary and his team, and related it all to the media's portrayal of him since his arrest in 2009. He also singled out one particular writer who he says needs to "get Bron dick …

Delonte West won't be making the trip with his teammates (he's on the Dallas Mavericks now) to visit President Obama at the White House, as is customary for all championship teams these days. Background checks are now required and West apparently flunked his thanks to weapons charges from 2009. Apparently this harsh…

I started working on The Whore of Akron in June 2009, before LeBron's walk year began. No one at that time saw much evidence that he was actually going to walk, not until after the Cavs lost to the Celtics in the second round of the playoffs and he started talking about "my team" in reference to the geniuses who brought…

May the resumption of basketball never trouble the childlike glee with which Delonte West goes about his business. After spending $3,000 on a 1994 white Ford Bronco ("OJ Style"), West's new purchase broke down before he could even get it inspected. He's now pushing it down the road, and it looks like he's almost there.…

Delonte West wanted to work the stock room at Regency Furniture. He needed this break (which he did in fact get) in order to "stay afloat during the lockout."
