That's Not A Fun Way To Lose
Saturday was an outstanding day for college football — particularly if you went to Syracuse, grumble grumble — but it was not so pleasant for Oklahoma fans, who, as this video rather clearly shows, were screwed out of a big road victory against Oregon. It's funny, because one wouldn't think it would...

NFL Pants Party: NFC West
It's our division, the one our Buzzsaw was shipped to so they didn't have to travel to New Jersey, Texas and Pennsylvania every year. And we've (obviously) never won it. Someday ......

NFL Season Preview: Seattle Seahawks
We are officially less than a month before the start of the NFL season, so it's probably time to start previewing the monster. The key to the NFL's success — other than fantasy football and gambling, of course — is the rabid nature of its fans. That is to say: You don't see a lot of people paintin...

Somebody Please Stop Jim Terry. Soon.
You might think this (CURRENTLY ON SALE!) T-shirt would be the work of a prankster on CafePress, the type of guy who does stupid knockoff T-shirts any one's whim....

Jordan Banned From Mountainous Region Of Western U.S.?
There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth last month at the news of Michael Jordan's acrobatic withdrawal from the American Century Championship Celebrity Golf Tournament at Stateline, Nev. Particularly annoying for many fans who had devoted large hunks of time — and considerable coin — to get ...

Some Good Ole' Texas Schadenfreude
As you would probably suspect, many Oklahoma rivals are having some fun with this Rhett Bomar no-show job business, and nobody's going crazier with it than the Hook 'Ems of Texas. They've had a little photoshop contest on a Longhorns message board, and they're having all kinds of fun....

Four Tiny Tidbits On: The Big Ten
We must confess that we can't wait each year for the crunch of shoulder pads; for cleats churning up chunks of turf and red-faced coaches screaming from the sidelines. But enough about lacrosse. College football season is upon us, and to celebrate, we're going to get back into tiny tidbit mode and...

Jimmy Kimmel Would You Like To Watch Those Hands, Buddy
A reader sends in this picture from Sports Illustrated's All-Star Game photo gallery. In case you can't tell by the personalized jersey, that's Harold Reynolds giving a big ole hug to Sarah Silverman, extremely funny comic and reason every Jewish single male in the country has a dart board with Jimm...

That's Quite An Offseason Transformation
Amazing find from The Wizard Of Odds: This appears to be a shot of Oklahoma offensive lineman George Robinson one year ago, and Oklahoma offensive lineman George Robinson from Sooners training camp today. We haven't been able to confirm it's the same guy — though we see no reason they'd change numbe...

Where's The Love For Jered Weaver?
The headline on SI.com this morning reads, Weaver-Mania hits LA. As well it should: Jered Weaver won his seventh straight start on Sunday for the Angels ... that's seven career starts, and seven wins. Not since Fernando Valenzuela started 8-0 as a rookie for the Dodgers in 1981 has something like ...

Tahoe Celebrity Golf; A Look Back
Deadspin associate editor Rick Chandler has just returned from the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament at Stateline, Nev., which ended on Sunday. Above all else, he would like to report that actor Bruce McGill is a swell guy who bought us drinks, and tells amusing Animal House ...

Baby You Can Sign My Card
Deadspin associate editor Rick Chandler is at the American Century Championship celebrity golf tournament at Stateline, Nev., this week. He is not considered one of the celebrities. In fact, he has been called a wuss by Scott Hamilton. Here is the second of today's two reports....
