This Time, They Weren't Flopping
During a South African soccer match earlier this week, a sudden gust of wind hit the obviously shoddily constructed stadium. What happened after that is gruesome and amazing. Somebody give that sign a red card. A couple, actually....
The Left One's Lewis. The Right One's Marvin
We'd like to thank JD Armey over at The Fanhouse for this photo of a Bengals fan who's awfully excited that her team is full of felons and just can't close the deal to get in the playoffs. Interestingly enough, Chris Henry and this woman are now engaged. **...
Joumana Kidd Has Much Havoc Left To Wreak
Adrian Wojnarowski's column a couple of days ago on Joumana Kidd and the shitstorm she's about to dump on the New Jersey Nets organization contained this fascinating tidbit:...
If You Can't Stash Your Pot In A Water Bottle And Get On A Plane, The Terrorists Have Already Won
Just one day after his brother tried to have an old lawsuit against him dismissed, it appears our friend Ron Mexico is in considerable trouble again. Michael Vick appears to have been stashing his weed in a water bottle and trying to sneak it past the whiz-kids at airport security....
This Man Has A Message For You About The Patriots
One More Dying Quail brings us this video of the nightmarish stereotype that all Boston sports fans fear. This guy thinks the Patriots deserve more respect, we think. After this, we suspect he played Golden Tee for six hours, and then got in a fight....

Sometimes, we just don't have to say anything, other than, well, this must have been what Michael Jordan had in mind when he drafted him....
More Reasons To Avoid Super Bowl Commercials
The New York Daily News reported yesterday that portly pop diva Britney Spears — known as third from the left on the music evolutionary chart, with Hillary Duff on the far left and Courtney Love on the far right — was turned down by the NFL Network when she approached them about appearing in a Super...
Leftovers: Lupica's Political Warblings
• Wait, they're letting Lupica write about politics now? Great. [New York Daily News] • Marquette is destroying everything in Louisville. [Yellow Chair Sports] • A KSK tribute to the fine folks at PostSecret. [Kissing Suzy Kolber] • So, how do concussions affect professional athletes, anyway? [Litmu...
Celebrating Ali's 65th
Today, friends, is Muhammad Ali's 65th birthday, a figure that, according to our calculations, makes him the oldest boxer who ever lived. The gang over at honoring him with a day's full of posts, and if anybody knows Ali — and that he had nothing to do with the invention of rap — it's those guys....
And You Thought Grossman Was The One Looking Forward To New Years
With all the drunk quarterback pictures floating around these days, of Rex Grossman and Ben Roethlisberger and Kyle Orton, we thought it wasn't quite fair that Drew Brees remained so free and beloved by everyone other than his mother....
Losing Weight The Wii Way
Here's a guy we respect: A man who decided to use the Nintendo Wii as his workout routine and ended up losing nine pounds. For years, we had been trying the video game diet with no positive effects. We suppose the "getting up off the couch" principle was what was always holding us back....

And The Barbaro Message Boarders Got Mad At US!
As much fun as we had had with the Barbaro Message Board denizens, we have never directly called for Barbaro's death. Perhaps if there were some sort of global famine — maybe if the world were attacked by zombies or something — we would need, for survival's sake, to carve up Barbaro's hindquarters a...
Marcus Giles Already Tearing Up San Diego
Marcus Giles has been a member of the San Diego Padres for less than a month; they just got the guy, for crying out loud. You thought it was a nice story, two brothers reunited — and it feels so gooood — but it turns out that it was a recipe for violence!...
This Kid Has Never Been A Fan Of Kool-Aid
The young gentleman shown here — the one in the middle — is Rob Jones, a senior at Riordan High in Northern California. He's one of the top athletes in the Bay Area and will play basketball for San Diego in college next year. He seems like a pretty well adjusted kid, which is impressive, considering...
"The Electric Chuck"
In a high school game in Utah — explaining the distinct lack of melanin on the court — a ridiculous downcourt heave brings the house down, as much as anything can bring the house down in Utah. Our favorite part about this is the announcer, probably a bored high school kid, just trying to wrap up the...
Hmm ... Whom Do We Dislike More?
Kissing Suzy Kolber tackles a question we've been struggling with ourselves: Whom are we supposed to root against in the AFC Championship Game this weekend?...
Man, We Totally Forgot They Were Razing Yankee Stadium
Buster Olney — whom, though we occasionally make fun of him, does pretty solid work over there — reported this morning that Yankee Stadium will host the All-Star Game in 2008, the final year before the historic-mostly-as-a-70s-relic stadium shuffles off this architectural coil. (Incidentally, our ou...
