U Of F President Irked By Gators' Party School Honor
It must be difficult for any university president to respond to the news that the school they promote as a bastion of education, culture, and developing fine, upstanding human beings is designated as the nation's top-ranked party school. On one hand, you're grateful for the national exposure the sch...
The A-11; Wave Of The Future, Or Satan's Offense?
Just what we needed: A new offense that makes the run-n-shoot look conservative. Meet the A-11; brainchild of Piedmont High, Calif., mad scientist/head coach Kurt Bryan, which is beginning to create a buzz at the prep level. Basically it's organized football's version of "Everyone just go long." Hil...
F1 Chief Max Mosley Doesn't Like Nazi-Themed Sex Parties After All
At least according to the British courts. Thanks to stricter privacy laws in the UK, Mosley sued and has been awarded 60,000 pounds for having his reputation "ruined." Which, to me, seems like an amazingly small amount of money for a reputation. But what do I know? Said Justice Eady per the Guardia...
Where Do NFL Starters Go To College?
And by "go to college" I mean commit felonies. Well, Mike Detellier has broken down NFL starters by their college conference. And while there is no big surprise, the SEC leads with 137 projected starters, there are some really surprising positional breakdowns. Coming in second after the SEC? Shockin...
Viral Sports Videos Are Getting Less And Less Believable
This video has been circulating for a couple of days, supposedly showing Redskins kicker Shaun Suisham booting a 110-yard field goal in practice. As Martin Prince would say: "Highly dubious!" (is then pummeled by bullies). Is it a real kick? Video trickery? Gus, the Field Goal-Kicking Mule? Brett Ha...
May Day! May Day! Detroit Is On Fire!
So May started out pretty well if you happen to live in the 3-1-3. Within the space of two hours, the Pistons dispatched the 76ers to go to Round Two of the NBA Playoffs, the Red Wings pummeled the Avalanche to sweep that series, and the Tigers ... well, the Tigers pulled off the greatest feat of a...
Well, That Was A Fun Day
Let it be known that as enjoyable as it was to substitute "edit" Deadspin the day after all hell broke loose on HBO, it is not without its drawbacks. Like, for example, I have no idea what happened in any actual sports news today. But I do appreciate the tips, the opinions, the mash-ups, the well-wi...

Former UNLV great and NBA troublemaker Isaiah (nee J.R.) Rider is back in trouble with the man THE MAN again, after he skipped out on his arraignment hearing , according to TMZ.

The Patriots Plan On Doing The Faux Perfection Thing Again
It's a grand sports capitalist tradition to trademark a team's or an individual's achievements. Pat Riley grabbed "Threepeat;" Dennis Green, displaying a self-awareness we wouldn't have anticipated, snatched up "They are who we thought they were." The New England Patriots were all over this last ye...

Avery And Spitzer Connected By More Than New York
