Witness Bill Simmons In Tight Tight Tights
The E-Ticket section on ESPN.com has always been one of the stronger elements of the site, and the show, while occasionally lapsing into the same soft-focus weeper segments that permeate Chris Connelly's "reports," trades off it well. Jeremy Schaap's Cecil Fielder story was fascinating; it was hard ...

Matt Leinart Is Watching One Exciting Game
Steelers 7, Cardinals 7 — Coach Ken Whisenhunt, sure enough, found a time to use Kurt Warner in the game, which happened to be the fourth drive of the game, and he's been in ever since. His touchdown to Jeremy Urban tied the game. Now, if Warner is the best quarterback to run the 2-minute-drill, no-...

Hey, Somebody Wake Up Jordan Already
As we enter Day, what, 15? of the Where's Iverson Gonna Get Traded? countdown — we think it's a shame they can't find a way to get him to Minnesota, and we can't fathom why it makes sense to send him to Boston — we look back at yesterday's big news. Supposedly, Iverson turned down a trade to the Cha...
