Brock Lesnar Blowing Away Prairie Dogs Has Very Little To Do With Michael Vick
You may have seen some whining and bitching when this video of Brock Lesnar taking out prairie dogs with what appears to be the BFG 9000 from Doom hit the web. We don't really want to get into moral equivalency arguments about hunting and dogfighting and wanton slaughter of semi-sentient beings. B...

The Two Pro Wrestlers You'd Least Expect To Date Are Now In A Nude Photo Lawsuit
Once upon a time, you probably would have wanted to see Terri Runnels nude. If you came of age in the WWE's Attitude Era, she was up there with Sable and Sunny as one of the company's top sex symbols. Now? Not so much. Runnels is suing an ex-boyfriend for libel after he made disparaging Facebook com...
Help Us Get The Wireless Network Passwords For Every NFL Training Camp
Above is a screengrab of Antrel Rolle's interview with ESPN New York, in which the facility's wireless password is carelessly taped to the wall. It's 2011NYGTC. Very creative.

I Hope Andy Dalton's Head Was Worth $20K To Ndamukong Suh
Ndamukong Suh burst into the NFL by trying to wrench Jake Delhomme's skull from his torso, perhaps to keep on his mantel. Suh seems to be making a habit of thinning the mediocre QB herd in preseason, with this weekend's takedown of Cincinnati's Andy Dalton....
Who Owns "Evil Empire"? The Yankees Launch A Proxy War For Control
Bridgehampton, N.Y., out on the East End of Long Island, is Red Sox territory. The bars along Main Street are decked out in red and will only show Yankees games if there's nothing else on. TVs receive the Hartford network affiliates. Carl Yastrzemski was born on a nearby potato farm and still holds ...
Two Fellows Very Surprised By The Miami Allegations: Luke Campbell And Al Golden
Nevin Shapiro, even behind bars, takes pride in the fact that Miami players referred to him as "Little Luke." Not because he so horny, but because he so generous with his money when it came to taking care of the Hurricanes. Naturally, the first place we look to for reaction this morning is to Big Lu...
This Is The Kind Of Tattoo You're Only Allowed To Get If You've Won Three Stanley Cups
Mark Recchi can get whatever he damn well pleases for his first tat. We love that Mark says he'll get his kids' initials "at some point." Whenever he gets around to it. The Cup comes first....
Roger Clemens Handed Out Some Souvenirs At His Trial

A Definitive Taxonomy Of Pro Wrestling Gimmicks
This intensely detailed poster is something of a throwback to a more theatrical time, when wrestling champions went by monikers more descriptive than Randy and Alberto. You can almost see the WWE's early 90s dartboard naming process at work. "An evil...dentist. A fighting...garbage man." [Pop Chart ...
