-Cardinals revoke newspaper's credential after they publish the home address of a number of players, including a furious Albert Pujols. Perhaps unsurprisingly, none of them actually live in St. Louis.

-The Yankees thought they signed 16-year-old Damian Arredondo. Turns out he's not 16. Also, he's not Damian Arredondo.

-Of the 75 players in the Lake Tahoe Celebrity Golf Championship, Charles Barkley is the 75th favorite, at 499-to-1 odds. Chuck immediately put down 50 Gs on himself.

-Brian Ching tweets about ref's blown call, gets fined $500 by MLS. They're not messing around; that's like 10% of his annual salary.

-Graham Harrell takes his gunslingin' to the Saskatchewan Roughriders, not to be confused with the Ottawa Rough Riders. Also not to be confused with professional football.

-Delusional (or self-promotional) poker player buys Barack Obama a $10,000 seat at the WSOP. Will the President take him up on his offer? No. No, he won't.

-U.S. Ski Team member Cody Marshall critically injured after falling off an escalator, though doctors are optimistic. I thought this terror ended when they knocked down Shea Stadium.

Texas Tech quarterback Graham Harrell was a key part of the Big 12 passing orgy that dominated college football's storylines this season, but he has not been invited to Heisman Trophy presentation ceremony on Saturday. I guess the Downtown Athletic ClubSports Museum of America is worried that they'll run out of chairs.

Obviously, no one expects him to win and the committee has invited as few as three and as many as six finalists in past years. But it seems like he's earned the right to at least get a free trip to New York and pretend-clap while some other jerk wins a stupid trophy that he didn't want anyway. Don't you agree, Mike Leach?

"If Graham is not invited to the Heisman, they ought to quit giving out the award," he said in a statement. "It is a shameless example of politics ruling over performance."

Leach then hocked a loogie into a spittoon and shoved a half-empty bottle of whiskey into his saddlebag before storming off to find a poker game. He was a little upset.

Harrell's made some news lately because he's become a little too yappy about the future of his head coach, Mike Leach. Last week, Harrell spouted off to the AP that he thought Leach would ditch Texas Tech after this season, but has quickly backpedaled. But he still thinks his coach, wherever he goes, will be very rich man:

"They're going to have to pay him a lot of money, as anyone will at this point...[H]e does more with less than anyone in the country. He can't go hand-choose his recruits like the USCs, the Oklahomas and the Texases. He has to really work at recruiting, get some less-talented players and develop them."

For sure. Look what he did with this naive boy dressed in a black, gift-covered cardigan?
