Would You Let This Woman Handle Your Stub?
I don't know how you feel about Jean Hsu (Jean who?) but that broad knows how to get into a tennis tournament. Somehow, she and a friend scored front row seats to an Andy Roddick match. Yeah, it's the national championship of tennis, but Andy Roddick? I guess they they just have a penchant to see ov...

CBS' MMA Property Might Get KTFO
It's common sense that any sports league needs the cash and exposure that come from being on television, and while the big sports have tidy, lucrative TV deals in place, there's one league that's still sorting out its path to the living rooms of America. No, NHL, we're not talking about you. UFC, th...
Woody Sez: Put That Judge In The Hall of Fame!
Woody Paige and Jay Crawford fans can breath a sigh of relief: sexual harassment charges against the two have been thrown out of a Manhattan court. The charges were filed by Rita Ragone, self-professed "Stylist to the Stars", who alleged the two men groped and propositioned her while the three were ...

Pre-Draft Fantasy Update: Fred Taylor To Split Carries, Arrested [UPDATED]
It's stories like this that give the phrase "arrested at 4 a.m. outside a South Beach Club" a bad name. Miami Beach police charged Jacksonville Jaguars running back Fred Taylor with disorderly conduct yesterday outside the awesomely named "Club Cristal". Taylor wasn't jailed, but instead pinky-swore...
A Tale of Two Bullpens
•Back Away From the Ledge, Mets Fans: In all fairness, you can't expect a major league bullpen to hold a one-run lead for almost three whole innings. The Mets relievers wasted another strong performance by starter Mike Pelfrey, as Aaron Heilman walked in the game-winning run in the bottom of the nin...
Starting 0-1 Hurts, And It Should
You know that the shittiness of a boring sports summer (with apologies to Michael Phelps) is subsiding when the universities of America put on their pads and start beating the hell out of each other again. But as great as the sport of college football is, it doesn't naturally lend itself to many tea...
Sweet Lincoln's Mullet! The Sarah Palin Sportscast Video Is Here
Sorry to barge in on your holiday weekend — for God's sake, put on some pants — but I just got back from he movies and found this great video in a basket on my doorstep. It's the one we've all been waiting for, a gift from the cold, desolate North: A sportscast featuring presumptive Republican Vice ...
It's Clemson. It's Alabama. It's A Live Blog, Sucka!
Here on the first college football Saturday of 2008, we've already seen the likes of Michigan, Virginia Tech, and Pittsburgh endure losses right out of the gate. And yet one more Top 25 team is guaranteed to wake up on Sunday morning with an 0-1 record. Will it be Clemson, led by the down-home Tomm...
Wheaties Box Cover Announced: Any Guesses?
If you said Michael Phelps, well, then you weren't paying attention to all those stories about his breakfast habits. Nope, the fourteen-time Olympic gold medalist has elected to go with calorically-charged Frosted Flakes. That means Wheaties honours fall to five-time gymnastics medalist Nastia Liuki...
HUGH 3: Revenge Of The Sith (Part 3)
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the Project tonight. We salute our unlikely winner Northwestern, who, in all honesty, scores an upset whenever they win a game. Good job, them.

Utes and Young Manhood
Nice storyline from today's Michigan/Utah game: Paul Kruger, victim of a vicious stabbing earlier this year, is playing for the Utes. Utah's starting defensive end, along with his younger brother Dave and teammate Greg Newman, were attacked back in January by a group of unknown tough guys outside a ...
Get Ready For The Los Angeles Saints In 2009...Maybe?
An unidentified partner of the man trying to bring the NFL back to Los Angeles told a local paper earlier in the week that he had "no doubt" that the city would be home to a pro team in 2009. And we report that with all apologies to USC. Of course, no team has been identified by the league (or anyon...
High School Kicker Booted Off Team for Acting Like, Being Girl
Let this be a lesson to all young girls out there: nothing positive can come from having Kathy Ireland as a role model. Kacy Stuart, prospective place kicker for McDonough, Georgia's New Creation Center high school, has been booted from the team for having the audacity to not be born a dude. Kacy ha...
Rudi Johnson Released From Bengals, Presumably For Good Behavior
You KNOW you're washed up when even the Bengals don't want you around anymore. Such is the case with Rudi Johnson, the tough Bengals running back whom you could pencil in for 1,300 yards and 12 touchdowns each season. At least that was the case before the franchise ran him into the ground. Last seas...
