Another member of America's Team runs afoul of the law after a long night out....
Greetings, Spinheads
Happy day after Thanksgiving. Today is gonna be looser than usual, given both the tech issues and that the vast majority of you are out shopping, or hungover, or getting ready for high school reunions. We'll cover some stuff, we'll ignore a lot of stuff, and have some fun being buddy, buddy, buddy a...
John Madden Getting Sick of Riding Old Bones Across Country in a Bus to Cover Crappy Games
The Washington Post has just reported that NFL broadcasting stalwart John Madden will miss his first week blabbering about football for the first time in 476 games. He's not gravely ill and not planning on retiring soon either, so the Frank Caliendo suicide watch is also put off indefinitely. No, th...
This Is Why He's Michael Jordan And You Are Not
I'll be honest, I think it's one of the coolest things in the world that Michael Jordan smokes a cigar while he plays softball. Think of how many people in the world could actually get away with that? Probably George Clooney. Or Fidel Castro. Anybody else does it they just look they're trying too ha...
Cops Tell Different Tale About Fan Who Was Ejected Over "God Bless America"

So, Yankee Stadium Takes This No Moving During "God Bless America"-Thing Rather Seriously
Remember a little more than a year ago when George Steinbrenner, inflated with patriotic fervor, imposed a laughable rule that instructed security officials to ban anyone from "excessive movement" during the 7th inning rendition of "God Bless America." Granted, most New Yorkers seemingly abide by it...
Jason Kidd Calls Out NBA "Double Standard" For Failure to Speak on Spain Photos
The NBA's love affair with China—and vice-versa—has been well chronicled by the national media. But in the wake of the Spanish team posing with slant-eyes or slit-eyes (I'm still not sure why there are two names for this), NBA players are starting to take note that the NBA is much quicker to penali...

Trey Wingo Wants To Remind Everyone Of ESPN's Plebian Roots
NFL Live's silver-haired lead dog Trey Wingo is one of the more likable chaps over at ESPN and straddles the line between Disney drone and regular guy better than most other WWL employees. Wingo took some time away from cuddling with Mark Schlereth to speak to Dan Levy's OnTheDL podcast and gave an...
Mike Tyson's Rub Out
Mike Tyson is one of those rare breeds who, whatever kind of trouble they get into or bizarre allegation they have thrown at them, it's never surprising. (Ed. Note: Doesn't Simmons have a theory about this?) The latest one proves it; any other famous person on the planet accused of financing a hit...
Dyshod Carter Probably Not The Next Frank Lucas
Dyshod Carter, a former cornerback for the Cardinals and Browns, was one of five people arrested earlier this week for attempting to purchase seven kilos of cocaine from an undercover DEA agent at the low, low Phoenix price of $16,000 a key....
Jeff Reed Will See Your Giant Dong And Raise You A Tiara And A Lady
Those ribald, pigskin miscreants at Thee Kissing Suzy Kolber have been gifted with a picture of Steelers' kicker Jeff Reed acting just like you'd expect Steelers' kicker Jeff Reed to act at a Las Vegas poolside bar. The three pictures of Reed show him wearing a sash, a bib and a tiara, or donning ...
Minor League Goalie Peppered With Pucks, Surrenders
Announcement: Michael Leighton is not in the mood to take out the freaking trash tonight — or for any other goddamned requests — after making 98 saves in an American Hockey League game ... and losing.

Mike Tyson Can Turn Darkness Into Light
Are you depressed? Feeling scattered and out of control? Being chased by those pesky frowny-faced cartoon clouds all day?

NCAA Pants Party: Tennessee Vs. American
Tennessee Volunteers (29-4) vs. American Eagles (21-11) When: Friday, 12:15 p.m. Where: Birmingham...
American Eagles
1. Curse-Breakers. Have you ever played Mario Kart and, just when it looks like you're going to win, the computer defies physics and sends Wario out to give you some competition? And then, thanks to a freaking green shell, Wario ends up winning? That's pretty much the relationship between AU and Hol...
Yankees-Red Sox Feud Reaches Depths Of A Free Hat
