One of them thinks the other one is an idiot and would maybe like to take the back of his hand and show that other one what's what. The place: The Tampa Bay ESPN 1040's "THE KIL...
The Orioles graciously agreed to let horrible pitcher Adam Loewen out of his major league contract and promised to re-sign him to a minor league contract so they could turn him into the next Rick Ankiel (and maybe salvage some of that $4 million they've spent on him.) It was the perfect plan—until L...
Florida coach Urban Meyer issues a gag order on his players before this week's Georgia game—that means no discussion of last year's end zone "unpleasantness." I'm sure the fans of both schools will totally respect that wish, too, and won't have any bad things to say about each other this week. [ESPN...

Afternoon Blogdome: Excessive Force
Why can't your friends be more like [email protected]? I do what I want: Chicago Blackhawk enforcer Adam Burish spent a day beating up teenage girls on the set of Jerry Springer. Don't worry—the kid wasn't his. [Dropping The Gloves] Orange Crush: It's good to see that Syracuse fans know how to ...
Arizona Basketball Is Kind Of A Mess Right Now
See update below ... Late yesterday, Lute Olson finally made it official—he's dunzo at the University of Arizona. (That also means Dick Vitale was ... *shudder* ... correct.) Yesterday was just the latest misstep, however, in an awkward, drawn out and at times ugly exit for a legendary coach who has...

Some people might say it's foolish to smoke pot in your car, especially when you're driving it around with expired plates, but in Pittsburgh it's not what you do, it's how you react after being confronted with your misdeeds that matters.
