Hurry, Before Alex Rodriguez Steals This Job

On Friday, Gawker received an email from the editor of femalemuscle.com, who is on the look out for a full-time blogger to take make "femalemuscle.com into the Gawker of her genre." Well, knowing that there are a few of you out there who are sports blog hobbyists looking to go pro, it only seemed natural that we pass it along. You can get the details over here. More »

We Won't Even Talk About The Pirate Ship On His Ass

All we really know about Mr. John Herold here is that he was arrested for trespassing on Feb. 1, 2008, somewhere in Florida. Now, seeing that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' season ended on Jan. 6, we have to assume that those are permanent tattoos, right? Must have seemed like a good idea at the time. Such are the delights of scrolling through Mugshotdujour.com, which is a must-visit if you don't mind the night terrors. Herold may be the top sports-related entry, although this next guy comes close. More »

Under The Brazilian Rainbow


Via Sports By Brooks comes this seemingly tall tale about these terrifying little fellers , who are supposedly part of Brazil's all dwarf soccer team, the "Gigantes do Norte."Even though this squad is not even close to being gigante in physical size, they are so in spirit, apparently. More »

Meanwhile, In New Zealand ...

If there's one rule I've lived by in this life, it's this: Never try to separate a New Zealand rugby fan from his mankini. The charming gentleman here is both a fan of the movie Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, and of fine rugby. But he and other fans like him are banned from wearing the Borat-style mankini at this year's International Sevens competition in Wellington. And now I, also, feel a bit sheepish about wearing mine at sporting events. Sorry, girls! More »

Rick Majerus Will Show You His Billiken

I'm not sure what the monster is supposed to be in Cloverfield, but it can't be any more horrifying than this. From the pages of Sports Illustrated, via Larry Brown Sports, comes Tales of Nude Rick Majerus. Apparently the Saint Louis coach loves being naked, and it's not the good naked, as Seinfeld would say. Here's the excerpt that will chill you to the bone, from when Majerus was with Utah: More »

Roger Clemens Had An Abscess On His Butt

Aren't you glad you knew that? Is your day not more enlightened than before? In a story found by Steroid Nation in the New York Times, trainer Brian McNamee goes into totally unnecessary detail about the aftereffects of injecting Clemens with steroids. More »

The Chinese Olympic Swimsuits Are Here ... Yeesh

It's true: One man's sexy is another man's nightmare fuel. Mostly though, aren't these swimsuits just impractical? Aerodynamic they ain't. However, if you're swimming in the ocean I suppose the front there could be used to collect baby smelt and other small bait fish. China never fails to confuse me. More »

Dueling Dan Le Batards


Not much going on today besides ex-sports stars trying to out-drink and drive each other and Wisconsin upsetting No. 9 Texas on a huge three-pointer. So here's two Dan Le Batard's talking about Bill Parcells on some well done Pardon The Interruption parody. Whatever. It's the final weekend of the year. Laugh a little.

nightmare ant redux

He's Baaaaaaaaaaack!

If it were up to me I would not be reposting this. I find 'Nightmare Ant' creepy, intimidating and more than a little demonic. But the truth is, I have very little control over this site anymore. Neither does Will. Yeah, it's 'Nightmare Ant' calling the shots now. And if 'Nightmare Ant' wants his photo reposted or a link to some weird senior bowling story, so be it. More »

The Winter Olympic Mascots Are ... Yeaagh! What The Hell? ...

Inspired by Native American tales of creatures that will claw children's eyes out if they don't behave, please welcome the new Winter Olympic mascots, Quatchi, Miga and Sumi! The Games are a mere 2 1/2 years from now, so these charming critters need to get right to work, doing, um, whatever it is they do. Informative and educational? Not in the least! Not a single one can actually be found in nature! More »

Canadian PSAs Are Clearly Not Messing Around


The above public service announcement has been running during Hockey Night In Canada on CBC up north. It is definitive proof that Canadians are terrifying. Heavens to Betsy! More »

Even Jets Fans Are Asking Her Not To Take It Off

Of all the European soccer promotions ever seen, this is by far the most interesting. By which I mean, you may have my eyes now. I have a donor card, so please make sure they go to a worthy recipient, like an NBA ref. More »

Normally we wouldn't run a photo of Carrot Top, but this Hopkins Summer League looks intriguing. [dlisted]

Oscar De La Hoya Is Feeling Even More Pretty Than Usual


We're not sure what the heck was going through Oscar de la Hoya's mind when he posed for these photos, and, frankly, we probably don't want to. There's another after the jump, and you can find the whole sordid spread right here. Yipes. More »
