MSG's Odd Defense Strategy
Time for an Isiah Thomas trial update: You know you've missed them....

Congratulations, Los Angeles Angels Of Anaheim
Because the "name change" of this Anaheim Angels was a dirty trick to sneak further into the Los Angeles market while adhering to contract obligations to keep Anaheim in the name, we will always refer to the franchise by its full, official, annoying name. (We think they should change it to, "The As...

Russian Topless Dancers Are Awesome At Photoshop
You might remember last week, when those Oscar de la Hoya pictures sprouted up, his publicist denied that they were real, claiming that they were Photoshopped. Everyone in the mainstream press all just printed the denial and dubbed the photos "fakes." This is what they do; it kind of makes them lova...

Mike Gundy Lectures The Oklahoman Newspaper
Via Sports By Brooks, here's video of Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy absolutely losing his shit on the media following Saturday night's 49-45 win over Texas Tech....

Stomper Recognizes The 'Fifth Element' Of Hip-Hop
I, for one, look forward to the day Oakland A's mascot Stomper is voted into the Mascot Hall of Fame. Between "getting hyphy" with the fans, breaking like a member of the Rock Steady Crew, and now this … that elephant's gonna have one hell of an induction ceremony!...

How To Stoke An In-State Rivalry
As Peter King can tell you, when you're a public figure, sometimes people poke a little fun at your family (especially if you, you know, talk about them all the time.) But Oklahoma baseball coach Sunny Golloway is probably an innocent bystander here, as much as anyone whose daughter poses in Playboy...

Isiah Can't Understand Why No One Wants To Touch Him
As the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment trial — also known as The Public Implosion Of What Used To Be The NBA's Signature Franchise, Bitch — continues down its road to glory and ruin, we check in today's installment: "Who Wants To Hug Isiah?"...

Oscar De La Hoya Is Feeling Even More Pretty Than Usual
We're not sure what the heck was going through Oscar de la Hoya's mind when he posed for these photos, and, frankly, we probably don't want to. There's another after the jump, and you can find the whole sordid spread right here. Yipes....

The Knicks Know How To Handle A Problem
The Isiah Thomas sexual harassment case updates will come earlier today, mainly because we really can't get over just how Cro-Magnon Madison Square Garden appears to be as a place of business. We know a couple of women who work over there ourselves, actually, and we want to tell them to get the hell...

Isiah Thomas Is A Cunning Linguist
Considering all that's going on in the Isiah Thomas harassment trial, we find it difficult to keep up. If we aren't careful, we'll make every post about it. Anyway, here's yesterday's highlights, with more, surely, to come tomorrow....

To Watch Tonight
What to watch as your parrot crank calls the neighbors ... • MLB: New York Yankees at Boston. Wait, this series actually could mean something after all? Wow. [ESPN] • College football: Oklahoma State at Troy. Look, a giant wooden horse. Let's bring it inside our walls ... what could possibly go wron...

Isiah Thomas Trial Takes Nasty Turn ... Thanks To Stephon!
We are the furthest thing from a legal expert — we legitimately had to have "billable hours" explained to us earlier this year — but one would think, after yesterday's testimony in the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment case, Isiah and MSG would have to be in some serious trouble....

Hawaii Loves Its Haka
The Hawaii Rainbows have taken, to fire themselves up, to doing the Haka before games. The Haka is mostly famous for being the intimidating pregame ritual for the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team. Now the Rainbows do it, mostly because their name is the Rainbows. But the WAC is not happy about it,...

PIck Through The Remnants Of Michael Strahan's Life
We have stayed up many late nights, hoping, praying, that somehow, Giants defensive lineman Tooth McTootherson and his wife /ex-wife / wife Jean Strahan could figure out a way to solve their marriage. It's like you just can't have faith in the institution anymore! As if accusations of gay sex with p...

Isiah Thomas Is Smooth With His Corporate Sponsors
If you haven't been paying attention — and we briefly looked away ourselves — the Isiah Thomas sexual harassment trial is already far more fun than it has any right to be. Yesterday, Anucha Browne Sanders testified about some disagreements she had with Isiah. She had a lot to say, but not nearly as ...


Do Not Even THINK About An NFL Player Dogfighting
Our pal AJ Daulerio, reporting for Philadelphia magazine, heard a rumor about a potential dogfighting case involving members of the hometown Eagles. Like any diligent reporter, he made a few calls, including one to the Eagles' office, and he found nothing, and reporting nothing. But that wasn't the ...
