Today's Drunken Ping Pong Karaoke Peeing Incident Brought To You By China

This story has it all: Ping Pong, drunken urination, karakoe, and of course at the center of it all a man named Wang Hao. Wang, who is China's most famed table tennis player, was involved in an altercation with a security guard on Thursday when the guard tried to stop him from urinating outside of a karaoke club. Now that's about 100 hilarity points right there, but there's more. Wang, while fighting with the guard, allegedly uttered the following quote, sure to become a classic: More »

Olympic Gold Medalist Challenges Chad Ochocinco to Race

Dominating one sport isn't enough anymore for today's athletes. Apparently, if you're a professional football player, specifically an egomaniacal receiver, you think your skills translate to other venues. Chad Johnson wanted to race against Michael Phelps in the pool — not to mention a horse on a track. Terrell Owens, if given a 20-yard head start, thinks he could out sprint Usain Bolt. Now Olympic athletes are firing back. American Gold medal women's sprinter Mary Wineberg, via this YouTube video, has challenged Ochocinco to 400-meter sprint: More »

Game-Worn US Olympic Basketball Jerseys Up For Auction

Bidding is up and running now and will continue until September 30. But break out the checkbooks and keep adding zeroes. Already Kobe Bryant's jersey has nine bids and is up to $1,600. Women's team jerseys will also be up for auction. Surprisingly, they aren't fetching as high of bids now. You can't escape sexism. Which games were the jerseys worn during? More »

Pole Dancing: The Next Olympic Sport?

One of the major concerns of the IOC over the past few years has been how to garner interest in the Olympics among today's youth. There's been a trend to try and make Olympic sports a bit edgier. For instance, BMX racing and Snowboarding are now featured and there's been some discussion around skateboarding. But how far will they take it? Well, lovely ladies from Albania to Spain gathered in Amsterdam last week to compete for the title of European pole dance champion and they think they belong in the Olympics. More »

Mad Physicist Analyzes Effects of Usain Bolt's Olympic Showboating, Carl Lewis Thinks It's Juicy

Usain Bolt is the fastest man in the world. He made the competition look silly during the 100-meter finals in Beijing and cruised so easily to victory that he was celebrating before the race was even over. Wondering how sick the speedy Jamaican's time could have been had he given it 100 percent throughout the entire race? Norwegian physicists have got you covered, “We estimate that he could have finished the race in a time between 9.55 and 9.61." That's fast, maybe a little too fast says Olympic legend Carl Lewis who recently implied that Bolt may be on the juice. More »

Irish Sports Minister Doesn't Believe A White Man Will Ever Break 10 Seconds in the Hundred Meters

For shame, Marten Cullen, for shame. In the wake of the 2008 Olympics Ireland's sports minister is tired of the country focusing on sports that they clearly can't win. Instead he wants to bring business to bear on sports via the competitive advantage of nations theory. What kind of sports should Ireland give up? Well, sprinting for one. Why? Because, of course, that's for black people. More »

Table Tennis Needs More Fans; Solution: Women Should Dress Sexier

If only this was the answer to every world problem. Famine? Women should dress sexier. War? Women should dress sexier. You see where I'm going here. That's because I'm following the lead of Claude Bergeret—the Gandhi of ping pong. Bergeret is head of the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF). And he wants the women to dress more like Japan's Naomi Yotsumoto. Bergeret told Yahoo: “We are trying to push the players to use skirts and also nicer shirts, not the shirts that are made for men, but ones with more curves.” More »

Spain Beats China In Overtime As "Slit-Eye" Picture Controversy Grows

Thanks to Pau Gasol's 29 points the Spanish team overcame a 14 point deficit to send the game into overtime tied at 72. Then, much to the chagrin of millions of angry Chinese, Spain overcame karma and pulled out an 85-75 victory. But not before their team picture exploded into controversy. To such a degree that the Spanish press are going out of their way to defend the team. More »

This Is The Problem With Live-Streaming Female Water Polo Photos

Whoops! Does this mean Yahoo! has to start using the NSFW tag throughout the Olympics? Well, congratulations to photographer William West of Getty Images for snapping this action shot during the titillating Australia/Greece women's water polo match-up. NBC should thank him too, as the ratings for this particular event will probably skyrocket now that the potential for soaking wet nip-slips has emerged.

Craig Sager Wears Matching Thongs, Has a Blond Fetish, and Loves the Lithuanian Dance Team

Without a doubt Dan Steinberg has conducted the finest interview of the 2008 Olympics. (Honest to God, I just linked the fleshbot Nebraska photos the first time. Whew, that was close. You're safe, I promise.) If you've been watching the Olympics you've probably noticed that Sager isn't wearing his usual blazers. But you probably didn't know that Craig Sager was a former Northwestern mascot or married a Chicago Bulls dancer who is 21 years younger than him. Enjoy. More »
