John Stockton Thinks This Is Excessive
Brandon Lloyd (I think that's who it is) appears to be impressed with the look. I can't tell if that look on his face says, "Man, you are crazy," or "I sho' wouldn't mind hittin' that from the back."...
For The Papas That Aren't Rolling Stones...
If I could, I'd like to take a second and wish my old man a Happy Father's Day. Although, a couple of weeks ago, I wished him a happy birthday in The Debriefing, and the son of a bitch couldn't be bothered to read it. So you know what? I take it back. FUCK YOU, DAD....

A Cub Not Named Michael Barrett Fights Someone
As noted in an earlier threadjack, Cubs' slugger Derrek Lee got into it with 6'10" Padres pitcher Chris Young. Lee, as angry baseball players are apt to do, swung wildly, and Young did not back down. Had this one not been broken up, I'd like Young's chances....

A Fitting Tribute To Larry O'Brien, If Larry O'Brien Was A Drunk
It lacks the Stanley Cup's charming ability to serve as a giant alcohol dispenser, but the NBA's Larry O'Brien trophy can be surrounded with what appear to be empty beer cans. The picture was sent in by a reader who's friend works in Cleveland across from the Ritz, and snapped this photograph the mo...

It's An Awkward Angle, But Its Not THAT Awkward
