Allisen Corpuz Seems Destined For Life Of Golf Diva-dom
This smilin' little firecracker sittin' all pretty, looking like she just shivved a man in a back-alley brawl, is 10-year-old Allisen Corpuz of Oahu. At 10 years 3 months 9 days old, Allisen is the youngest golfer ever to play in a USGA championship event, when she appeared at this morning's Women'...

To Watch Tonight
What to watch after displaying your enormous pink balls ... • Arena Football League: Colorado at Arizona (10 p.m., ET). Like playing football in your garage without the danger of sharp tools.

Michael Wilbon Thinks People Who Enjoy Pictures Of Him With Porn Stars Should "Get A Life"
Michael Wilbon chatted with Washington Post readers today, and he addressed those brilliant porn star pictures. The good humor he had on "PTI" about it? That's gone....

Petey P. Cup Has A New Sidekick! (Yikes)
I imagine that in Barry Bonds' fevered dreams — when he sleeps at all — this is pretty much all he sees. We've told you about Petey P. Cup, the urine sample mascot for HealthPartners.com. But now meet his new sidekick, Pokey Syringe. Together they fight crime crusade for gay rights terrorize prostit...

Is Boston Ready To Host A Championship Celebration?
As mentioned last week, the Leitch family is heading to Fenway Park this Saturday — tentative pitching matchup: Josh Beckett vs. Mitchell Boggs. You're toast, Sox! — and we are hopeful that the Yawkey Way faithful will show us the appropriate respect. That is to say: We hope they won't throw anythi...

Becky Hammon Not Going To Be The Most Popular Gal At The V.F.W
Becky Hammon's decision to play for the Russian national team in the 2008 Olympics has stirred up all sorts of Cold War emotions in Americans, yet once U.S. coach Anne Donovan calls you a "traitor" for your decision, well, it's a Rocky IV mindset all over again....

Maximizing Your Collegiate Experience
It might be hard to remember, but the University of Arizona was once home to a highly respected college basketball program. The 2002-2003 season in particular featured a tremendous team, including players like Andre "Iggy" Iguodala, Channing "Ham Sandwich" Frye, Will "Thrill" Bynum, Luke "Lookout" W...

The Most Disappointing Tiger Woods Victory In History
The seventh hole of Torrey Pines decided the fate of Rocco Mediate. Rocco said before the hole, "They wanted a show, they got a show." Indeed. It seemed before today's round, most of the experts were giving Rocco about as much a shot at beating Tiger as Matt Lauer. He proved everybody wrong....

Naked People Are Stridently Anti-Willie Randolph
We don't deal with a lot of public relations people around here, which is one of the many pleasures of writing on the Internets. (For now.) But for some reason, we are on the mailing list for Rick's Cabaret in New York City — we don't know why! Swear! — and we received the following email today: "RI...

"You are watching one of the greatest U.S. Open championships in history..."...

Barbados World Cup Dreams Go Down Hard
Well, that went about as expected, considering that Sussman is their starting goalie. Barbados lost to the U.S. 8-0 on Sunday in a World Cup qualifier, as you can see in the above video highlights, which are nearly as long as the match itself. Watch closely, because I'm pretty sure we scored two goa...

Goodnight, Baseball Hall Of Fame Game
It's a sad day, folks: Today marks the last ever Hall of Fame game in Cooperstown, N.Y. As much fun as it might have been, it does seem like a pain for players, to go all the way to Cooperstown in the middle of the season for an exhibition game, though we do hope it throws the Cubs (who are playing...

You Are Missing Some Serious, Serious Golf Drama
Rocco Mediate somehow managed to overcome a seemingly impossible three-stroke deficit on Tiger. Then it was two. Then it was one. Then... it was tied....

Doug Christie Is Full Of Aggrievement
Wait, people still pay attention to Doug Christie? Really? The man still has some sort of forum, and humans react to his words? Crazy....

Rocco Cuts Into Lead, Still Nobody Seems To Think He Has Any Shot
As they approached the 12th hole at Torrey Pines, Johnny Miller and Dan Hicks appeared down on Rocco's chances. He'd lost a shot on ten, gained it back on 11, but, still, seems completely out of this thing down by two shots with six to go against Tiger....

You, Too, Could Kick In The Arena League
Who says the Arena Football League isn't fan-friendly? Before the Chicago Rush's game this weekend, kicker Paul Edinger — so THAT'S where he is! — tweaked his groin, which is never good. The Rush had no extra kickers ... so they held an open call for fans....

Tiger Up By Two, Rocco Swats At Imaginary Vultures Circling Him
Broadcast switch. ESPN retires its coverage for the day and turns it over to Bob Costas at NBC who sounds very, very serious, saying that "Rocco Mediate's Cinderella story is in jeopardy." He's speaking in hushed tones, like he's in a confessional or explaining death to a small child. He has not cal...

June 15, 2008 Ruled
• Man, yesterday was such a great sports day. [The Arena] • Where's Sabathia going? [Rumors And Rants] • Yes, Kobe, we see your kids. [The Meaningful Collateral] • At least everyone gets to hate Sasha for a little bit longer. [The Sports Culture] • The Rangers might need some pitching. [The Legend O...
