Spanking Young Deers: Bernard Hopkins Still The Undisputed Champion Of Trash Talk
HBO is on to a pretty great idea here.

Be...

University Of Texas' Augie Garrido Is The Angriest, Most Foul-Mouthed Coach Since Bobby Knight

Rajon Rondo Made Mike Bibby Do A Mental Somersault
So the Celtics got hammered down the stretch last night, and, yes, LeBron James made Rajon Rondo do a somersault that probably had Rondo snuggling up to his heat pack after the game.

Your Barcelona-Real Madrid Cuarto Clásico Open Thread
