The Sagging Cheerleader
So here's something you don't see every day: A 38-year-old cheerleader. Ravens pompom poofer Molly Shattuck is a mother of three, and she's living her lifelong dream of being a cheerleader on a squad in which the average age is 15 years younger than her. Inspirational story, right? Yes?...

Terrell Owens Update: Still Keeping It Real
We haven't checked in on Terrell Owens for a while; how's it goin', Terrell? Well, looks like he and Donovan McNabb still aren't talking, which isn't a big deal, since we can't imagine their level of discourse is all that high anyway. ("Donovan, I'm concerned about the lack of geopolitical debate ...
Milton Bradley Repeatedly High-Fives His Wife
You know, it had been so long since a good Athlete Beating His Wife story that we were beginning to wonder what was going on.

T.O. Mania Continues To Ensue
This little kid, "Jeremy," claims to be Terrell Owens' biggest fan, but one who is saddened by his current exploits. Still, he's selling T-shirts (of course) that say "F.U.T.O. (For You, T.O.)" on his Web site. We love it when Philly fans get all clever and figure out how to use the computer....

Tom Brady Masturbates Just Like The Rest Of Us
Life's tough for Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. The number of women who jump in front of traffic for him his cumbersome, $50 bills don't burn nearly as well as $100 ones and, hey, those rings are heavy. And now he's sick of being known as a golden boy. In an interview in the upcoming GQ, Brady ...
