Schoolhouse Rock
Back when we played youth sports, our parents had just one rule: no fraternizing with heavy metal bands. In England however they are much more lax. You may have heard of this already, but a North Hykeham, Lincoln U-10 soccer coach, in search of a team sponsor, came up with the idea of asking Motor...

You Know What? We Prefer Orton And His Jack
Because we haven't had any fun Athlete Doing What Most Of Us Do All The Time But It's Still Amusing To See Because It's Funny When The Public Relations Bubble Is Burst And They Look Like Normal Human Beings pictures for a while, we present you this shot of San Diego Padres pitcher Jake Peavy, down...
Buffy's Sleeper Hold
We'd like to formally offer a crisp salute to Every Day Should Be Saturday for discovering the above video, which involves a slight skirmish before the Virginia Military-The Citadel football game last week. It's not every day that a cheerleader puts a cadet in a headlock, but every day it happens is...
A Very Unmanly Night Of Boxing
At Madison Square Garden tonight, Muhammad Ali will be in the house, and the IBF heavyweight title is on the line. There was a time when that would've meant something. Tonight, however, Muhammad's only there to support his daughter, and the guy who's challenging for the world heavyweight title would...
Week In Review: Rutgers Now, Rutgers Forever

Cue The Sun!
We've become bored with watching actors give us phony emotions. We are tired of pyrotechnics and special effects. While the world he inhabits is, in some respects, counterfeit, there's nothing fake about Truman himself. No scripts, no cue cards. It isn't always Shakespeare, but it's genuine. It's a ...
Throwing An Intern To The Wolves
We've never done this before — to start this off like a Penthouse Letter — but we are here to put out an open call for an intern. This is not because we need someone to fetch us our slippers or to ejaculate as a result of oral stimulation, though, all told, neither of those are necessarily horrible ...
Pointing Out The Idiocy Of A New Rule
A truly outstanding find from The Wizard Of Odds: Apparently, during the Joe Paterno broken leg game between Penn State and Wisconsin — JoePa's return has been pretty amazing, by the way; the guy's coaching this week — Badgers coach Bret Bielema either discovered a loophole in the controversial new ...
Bo Schembechler Gets Meta On Us
We've told you repeatedly about the Dead Schembechlers, the Ohio State fan punk band that features thrash ditties like "Bomb Ann Arbor Now" and "Chad Henne is A Motherfucking Joke." (Their official site is right here, though someone should probably mention that no one does splash pages anymore.)...
Sometimes, The Gatorade Bottle Is Just Too Far Away

Another "Outstanding" Regular Season Manning Triumph
There is a temptation to point out that if Peyton Manning had thrown four interceptions at home on national television against his biggest rival, he would have been vilified by anyone with a keyboard yet again for being a choker; because it was Tom Brady who did it, it was just an "off night" for ...
Cut. That. Meat.
Well, the time has finally come. It's almost time for the Colts and Patriots to kick off, and thus, for Peyton Manning to engage in a no-win situation. If he loses, he's still firmly entrenched in the role of Tom Brady's lawnboy. If he wins, it's a meaningless regular season game that won't even be ...
Week In Deadspin: World Series Hangover
• Hey, the Cardinals won the World Series. And, amazingly, we were there. • Ben Roethlisberger is wisely keeping his distance from the motorcycles. • Whoa. The Knicks won. • Harold Reynolds is coming, ESPN, he's COMING! So be ready. We went in depth on his suit. • GARRRRRRRRR! • Eagles fans are havi...
Time For Manning-Brady ... Uh ... What Number Are We On Now?
You might have heard: The Colts play the Patriots this weekend, which means it's time for more Brady vs. Manning stories. We think everyone's issues with Peyton Manning are nicely summed up by Kissing Suzy Kolber:...
