It's Enough To Make You Want To Hug Damon Jones
I don't know if it's enough to erase the pain of Jordan-over-Ehlo or Earnest Byner's fumble, but last night had to be the best Cleveland sports fans have felt since ... well, since the ping-pong balls bounced their way and they won the right to draft LeBron James....
Encore?
The playoffs, as you often hear, are all about adjustments. If you're Flip Saunders, how do you adjust to LeBron James finally becoming the unstoppable force he was always supposed to be? I guess your best hope is to just hope he's exhausted from kicking your ass the last time out. The downside is t...
Evander Holyfield Has Much Advice For Sage Rosenfels
"OK, now everybody listen up. The key to being a successful Houston Texan is to ... wait ... is HGH legal in football? No? Oh, well, don't worry: Take it anyway, you'll sit out four games, no one will care, it's the NFL. Anyway, what was I saying? Dancing. Yes. Dancing is ... you gotta ..."...

Gators Deal With The Loss Of Billy Boy
Now that Billy Donovan has officially left the Florida Gators for the Orlando Magic — and EDSBS has been quiet so far — we thought we'd ask the biggest Gators fan we knew, Dan Shanoff, to describe how he's feeling. Here are his words....
NBA Blogdome: In Awe
A wrapup of Web reaction to LeBron James' insanity in the Cavs' Game 5 win last evening ......
LeBron Does All Kinds Of Things Humans Aren't Supposed To Be Able To Do
This photo is of the last point of the final 25 LeBron James scored last night to give the Cavaliers a 3-2 series lead in the Eastern Conference Finals. (Yes, for once, the Eastern Conference playoffs were not just watchable, but thrilling.) We find it amazing that in this shot, there are five Detro...
LeBron Would Like To Make His Case Now
Heavens to Betsy: We think it's possible that LeBron James has proven himself in the fourth quarter. Or in overtime. Or in double overtime. Or, perhaps soon, in the NBA Finals. He scored the last 25 points for the Cavs. That, friends, is ridiculous. Consider our jaws officially agape. More tomorrow....
Cavs' Chance To Take Total Control
Larry Hughes will be back tonight, but nobody really cares about that anymore: The planet's got Daniel Gibson fever. Well, maybe that's pushing it, but if LeBron James and company can pull off Game 5 in Detroit tonight — hey, the Bulls won one there — then everything is upside down and crazy, and we...

You thought A-Rod was the only New York baseball personality out partying with attractive ladies all weekend? You clearly forgot about Mr. Met....
Larry Hughes Is Feeling Rather Marginalized Right Now
Over the weekend, we were discussing LeBron James with a friend of ours. Specifically, we were discussing whether or not it was fair of us, on this here site, to brush off any notion of unfairness about LeBron's late game exploits by saying, "if you want us to drink your shitty sports drink, you mus...
LeBron James Extreme Closeup!
We bring you this terrifying photo of LeBron James not just to make sure you have appropriate nightmare fuel this evening — seriously, this guy is the most marketable athlete in the NBA? — but because in a few hours, we'll know right well whether or not LeBron and his Cavs can singlehandedly veer us...
Roll On, Big Cheese, Roll On
If it somehow slipped your mind that Monday was the annual Gloucestershire Cheese Roll, don't worry; we're on the story. In the interests of full disclosure, though, we have to tell you that the video above is from last year's event. For this year's results, go here. So much to love in the video, ho...
One Series Is Alive ... Can We Make It Two?
As close as this series has been so far, we're just one Pistons victory away from it being totally lopsided. They've been so close on the road, most people believe the Cavs will be able to take at least a game at home. Except for Rasheed Wallace, who would lead you to believe that if the Pistons try...

Time For The Daily Taking Of LeBron's Temperature
As we've said before, even though it's probably not fair to pin every Cleveland Cavaliers playoff loss on LeBron James, hey, if you want us to buy your shitty sports drink, them's the breaks....
They're Playing Basketball Again
As we wonder which LeBron James will show up tonight, we gear ourselves back up again for the NBA Playoffs, which feel like they've been gone longer than they have even though no one's particularly missed them all that much. There's a thought that if Cleveland wasn't gonna sneak out Game 1 — when th...
We Still Can't Find The Name Kaka In the Bible
Would it surprise you to learn that right now we are wearing the exact same shirt as our friend, Kaka, above? In addition to the gift of spiritual peace and salvation, we will be quickly returned to Jesus if we are ever lost or stolen. So we have that going for us....
