What, Like House Of Pain Was Gonna Do Anything?

If Detroit Pitchers Played All Nine Positions ...
We have to agree with Bugs and Cranks: Seeing a truly awful defensive play in baseball is darned near as good as seeing a truly great one. The site's Lead Glove Awards are out, and once again we see Manny Ramirez in a place of honor. A couple of our favorite lines:...

Baseball Fans Search For Loopholes On Billy Donovan Night
We are not here to mock you, Billy Donovan. Yes, you backed out of your $27.5 million deal to coach the Orlando Magic; but we feel your pain. Steve Spurrier feels your pain.

A Requiem For Bad Moon's Money
For months now, we've been trying to figure out why, during our exhibition football game against Andre Rison and Kordell Stewart, Rison felt obliged to hug us. We felt we had competed hard, but not quite worthy of a hug. We thought maybe Andre was just lonely. Maybe he missed Left Eye?...

Another Example Of How UFC Has Overtaken Boxing

The NCAA Hates The Series Of Tubes
So the more and more we think about this NCAA rule about no live-blogging in the press box, the more insane it seems. It might be one of the dumbest Internet decisions we've seen an athletic organization make, and considering Major League Baseball once did a promotion with Creed, that's no small ach...
Boston Media Will Now Officially Cover Anything (And So Will We)
Because no Boston Red Sox stone shall be left unturned over NESN, Scott's Shots points out an odd video that features Manny getting intimate in his hotel room — watch yo mouth! — with his hairdresser, named LMonstro. (You have to sit through an annoying ad to watch the video.)...
