Pitching Coach Fails In Escape From Tropicana Field
This man is Jim Hickey, the pitching coach for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. As you'd expect, life as the pitching coach of the Devil Rays — sorry: Tampa Bay Rays — is not easy. It's enough to drive a man to drink....

Not Safe At Home, But, Please, Don't Give Us Instant Replay
We're still all a-twitter about that amazing Rockies win over the Padres last night; it's rather difficult to be more dramatic than a three-run comeback in the bottom of the 13th inning with the whole season on the line. Oh, and there's controversy too!...
He Didn't Touch The Plate, But Hey: Thus, It Goes
We are not sure if that was a home run in the early innings or not — we think it probably was — but we know that he was not safe at home plate. At a certain level, we can't help but think it was a back-up-I-don't-want-any-trouble call from the home plate umpire, Tim McClellan. He knew the runner did...
Will The Patriots Score 38 Again?
This could be the last stand for the Bengals, early on anyway, and they're playing the absolute worst team you could play right now if you needed to make a last stand. Unfortunately, everyone's just going to talk about that CameraGate situation all night. Again....
Rockies-Padres, For A Trip To Philadelphia!
It is not often the eyes of baseball fans are focused on Coors Field in Colorado, but in about 20 minutes, that's exactly where they'll be. We couldn't be more excited....

The Terrapins Go Round And Round
Maryland's upset of Rutgers over the weekend was almost lost, in the wake of all the other ones. But the star was backup quarterback Chris Turner, who engineered the second-half comeback. And here's something cool: His dad was in RATT!...

Mourn The Mets
Before we commence burying the Mets' and their historic collapse, let's take a moment and congratulate the Phillies, who had to earn their way here. (Daulerio was at the game in Philly yesterday and we're pretty sure Victorino got him with that water hose.) The Phillies will be incredibly fun to wat...
Rocky Mountain High (In Colorado)
As Tuco said when he got the drop on Clint Eastwood in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, "There are two kinds of spurs, my friend. Those that come in by the door [crosses himself], and those that come in by the window." The Rockies came in the latter way, beating the Diamondbacks 4-3 on Sunday to forc...
Phillies Just Sank Mets' Jengajam
As most of you have already seen, Tom Glavine's outing today didn't last too long — maybe he was double parked? — as the Florida Marlins lit up Mr. 300 with seven runs in the first inning en-route to an 8-1 win. With that, they needed Philadelphia to lose and force a tie. They've been counting on Ph...
Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Oklahoma
ESPN enjoys to alliterate Saturdays with "S" words — which are words that begin with the letter "S" — to glorify the weekend's slate of intense games. Separation Saturday comes foremost to mind. But with all the upsets that occurred in the Top 25, perhaps yesterday should be known as "Suck It" Satur...
If There Is An Allah, He'll Permit A Four-Way Tie
Whenever I see a baseball fight late in the season, I picture Colin Mochrie in front of a green screen trying to figure out what's going on, saying "Well, it all started over a bowl of soup! And now ... look at it!"...
