Who Is The Blurry Guy In This Photo, And Why Did Manny Ramirez Steal His Pants? The Long Baseball Life Of "The Machete"
After Roger Clemens's first start in the Atlantic League, the Associated Press sent across the wires a photo of him in the middle of his lumpy follow-through, pitching to an out-of-focus batter at the plate. The Hall of Famer, of course, had dropped in to pitch for the Sugar Land Skeeters; his oppon...

Arkansas Coach John L. Smith Will Not Tolerate You Not Smiling
A bad offseason for Arkansas football has turned into a bad regular season, but at least head coach John L. Smith is still willing to have a little fun with the press corps along the way. As you can see above, even in the midst of Chapter 7 bankruptcy, Smith still has retained his (somewhat terrify...

Scab Ref Tells LeSean McCoy: "I Need You For My Fantasy Team"
It's an important distinction to note that most criticism of the replacement officials is directed not at them, but at the league for forcing it to come to this point. We know the refs are doing the best they can; we know they're just not prepared. (More than getting the calls right, memorizing the ...
Everton Fans Would Be Happy To Take Some NFL Replacement Referees Off Our Hands
While two different goal-line technologies are approved for use by the world's top soccer organizations, neither are implemented in the English Premier League yet—the limeys electing to stick with the power of the human eye for the time being. That's unfortunate, because EPL assistant referees are ...

Yunel Escobar's Eyeblack Reads "You Are A Faggot" In Spanish [UPDATE]
The image above comes from Saturday's Blue Jays game, and it shows shortstop Yunel Escobar with the Spanish phrase "Tu Ere Maricon" written on his eyeblack. That translates into English as, "You Are A Faggot." We've tried to come up with a plausible explanation for this. The best we've got is that ...

Is It Poor Form To Literally Rip A Home Run Ball Out Of Another Fan's Hand?
This is from Anthony Rizzo's first of two home runs yesterday (the Pirates' collapse continues apace). I want to draw your attention not to the play, but to the two gentlemen in center, struggling over that all-important baseball. Who has the moral high ground, and the right to the ball?...

Here's A South Carolina Trainer Eyefucking Bruce Ellington
Ooh, 20 yards per catch? You know what that does to me, even if it is against a Conference USA team. God, that crop top/shoulder wrap combo should be illegal. What's that? The quarterback broke his arm? Tell him to take an Aleve, I'm busy here. Mmm, so busy. You must be tired, Bruce. You've been r...
Lonnie Chisenhall Hits Walk-Off Single, Is Thanked By Teammates With An Attempted Cornholing
Not entirely sure what's going on here. After leading his team to victory with a walk-off hit last night, Cleveland Indians third baseman Lonnie Chisenhall was treated to a rather odd celebratory scrum....
The Scab Refs Still Suck, And Roger Goodell Is Still A Hypocritical Shitstain
On Aug. 31, just a week or so prior to the kickoff of the new season, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell sent out a "note" to the public that was essentially a press release, a reminder to you, the NFL viewing public, that the league was going balls-out on player safety:...

Your Belated Week Two NFL Open Thread
Whoops! Hope you didn't have any thoughts during the first, oh, 80 minutes football this weekend.
