Hipsters In Big Wheels — A Regressive Delight
Bring Your Own Big Wheel, an annual event for wacky funsters to relive the childhood they never left is typically held on San Francisco's winding Lombard Street. This year's event went down Easter Sunday on Potrero Hill, which The Backyard said is probably more treacherous. Not being from the Bay A...
Four Months On, No Closure In Sean Taylor Case
Frustrations are coming to a boil in the investigation of the Nov. 27 slaying of Sean Taylor, which in its immediate wake seemed, and was presented by authorities, to be an open-and-shut case.

He Doth Curry Favor With Queen James
As if there were any doubt that Stephen Curry is the star of the tournament, even if Davidson fails to reach the Final Four, it was further quashed last night. As this video provided by The Sporting Blog shows, even LBJ had to give it up for Son of Dell, Destroyer of Worlds, who is averaging over 30...
WWE Goes Nipple-Free
Wrestlemania XXIV is this Sunday ONLY. ON. PAY. PER. VIEW. and though there will be many bare chested (but totally hetero!) galoots offending the eyes with their useless male nipples while doing their sports entertainment thing, someone decided that just wouldn't be aboveboard to have them all out t...
At Last, A Scenario In Which The Wealthy Win
Don't pity early departing No. 2 seeds Georgetown or Duke, not that you would. Remember, their students come from money and are getting more of it, as evidenced by their Final Four placement in the Payscale bracket based on the median income of graduating students. Stanford claims the top spot, bein...
'Hawks Fan Hocks Bitter Loogie
Southerners and the Civil War. That's perhaps the one group of people more single-mindedly embittered by an event than Seahawks fans and Super Bowl XL.

Man's Gotta Have A Code
It's a non-selective Sunday without a great deal of intriguing matchups (sorry those looking for an Avalanche-Stars breakdown), so my attention turns to the grand finale of what has been hailed by a great many pundits as the Greatest TV Show of All-Time.

Erin Andrews Bares All (Textually)
Continuing to take cues from the blog world, the Chicago Tribune is the latest mainstream publication to grant a profile to the ever frothed over Erin Andrews.

After Eight OTs, You Can Just Share The Title
The Division 1 Michigan state high school championship hockey game yesterday between Marquette and Orchard Lake St. Mary's ran a little long. About eight overtimes, 109 minutes of play long. It was probably seven overtimes too many, because they then packed it in and declared both teams co-champions...
