"Dumb Fuckers" Attend University Club Fair, Student Paper Reports
Unlike the inexplicable floating fuck in the Greenville News's story on the SEC Title Game, we have a pretty good idea of how the Suffolk Journal ended up running this subhed yesterday. As explained by a red-faced editor's note, it was some joke text meant to be switched out later, only it never was...

In Los Angeles, Two Seconds Last Forever
At the very end of regulation, with the Kings and Blue Jackets tied, L.A.'s Drew Doughty scored a gamewinner. It went to a video review, and Doughty was credited with a goal with 0.4 seconds remaining. Then they showed the replay, and all hell and confusion broke lose....

Charles Oakley And Anthony Mason Had Some Profane Opinions On Those Awful Raptors Jerseys
Flash back to the '95-96 season, when the Toronto Raptors entered the NBA wearing their cartoon dinosaur jersey. (It's incredible that this was only 16 years ago, and someone thought these were okay. I mean, they were mocked at the time, but not enough. Not enough.) A former Raps employee recalls a ...
All The Photos Other Reporters Took Of Ines Sainz At Super Bowl Media Day

Where Have You Gone, Pert Coed Rumps Of The Alabama Fax Cam?
Last year Bama livened up the roll call that is National Signing Day by pointing a webcam at their fax machine, and sending female staffers to post the latest commitments.

Dan Borislow Told His Players To Call Him "Daddy," And Other Tales From A Miserable MagicJack Locker Room
We've told you all about Dan Borislow, the renegade owner who managed to bring down the whole of Women's Professional Soccer. His abusive, racist, sexist emails. His "Batmobile-like motorcycle." His complete inability to run a team, and his total unwillingness to market it....
Victor Cruz Is Only A Giant Because Rex Ryan Couldn't Keep His Mouth Shut
When it came time to break camp in 2010, Victor Cruz was decidedly on the bubble. It's not that he wasn't talented, but rather that the Giants weren't yet sure what they had. Ideally, they would have cut him and stashed him on the practice squad. It was a risk, given that any other team could have s...

Give Them A Pretty Lady In A Tight Dress, And Reporters At Media Day Become Comic-Con Nerds
Doing the lord's work, the guys at Sports790 in Houston followed around Televisa Deportes sensation Marisol Gonzalez for a bit. Not to leer, but to see who might be caught leering. They were not disappointed. [via @sportsfeeder1]...

Ray Ferraro called TSN's broadcast of Leafs/Penguins tonight, and as sometimes happens with online streams (in this case, the NHL's GameCenter Live), viewers watching during televised ad breaks were treated to a live mic.
