Make $50 By Licking A Urinal Wall. Ask This Guy At Husky Stadium How!
Writes tipster Tim W., "I went to the second to last game to be played at Husky Stadium before it gets torn down and replaced. We were playing Colorado. I went to the bathroom and this guy was on his knees next to the urinal trough shit faced and ready to make 50 bucks. You can see guys pissing wa...
Here's Chad McGhee With Your Weekly Knox City Greyhounds Update
It was foretold. By Chad McGhee. On this site. Knox City was predestined to face Throckmorton. With these words: "I truly believe that. I'm just getting that signal that we will meet again and we will be able to beat them." And that's exactly what Knox City will do on Black Friday. Well, the meeti...

Because Any Time You Beat The 63rd Best Team In College Basketball, You Have To Rush The Court
George Mason had a miracle tourney run six seasons ago, didn't receive a single vote in this week's AP Top 25, and are ranked 63rd in KenPom's ratings. Florida Atlantic students apparently didn't get the memo, and stormed the court after their overtime win over the Patriots this weekend. Because y...
The Eagles' Nine-Minute Game-Winning Drive in 90 Seconds
To the surprise of just about everyone last night, Vince Young—whose play up until this point in the game could generously be described as erratic—led an 18-play, 80-yard death march of a touchdown drive that would eventually decide the game. Here's the drive, condensed into a much more palatable ...
DeSean Jackson Appears to Return Another Punt Against The Giants, Refs Disagree, Eagles Score Anyway
It was a close call to be sure, so it was strange that the play was not reviewed. Not to worry, though. Noted winner Vince Young hooked up with noted former Giant Steve Smith and the Eagles got their touchdown. The two teams bored us to tears for 28 minutes, but brought the heat at the end of the...

Dos Santos Wins, Mainstream Fails To Care
I'd planned to write something about the Cain Velasquez vs. Junior dos Santos fight today. But the fight lasted all of 64 seconds. Gotta feel for anyone who sat through eons of buildup only to make for the suds and miss the action. The UFC's debut on Fox was a flop. A disappointment on a grand sca...

Don Johnson, The Champagne King And The Beast Of Blackjack, Has Once Again Punished An Atlantic City Casino
After a few months of suspiciously restrained behavior, blackjack savant Don Johnson has returned. He was spotted in October in Atlantic City stuffing fistfuls of casino chips into his gullet. Just grinding them up between his world-class molars. No, I made that up. He was actually cashing in fistfu...
Santonio Holmes Gets Vocal About A Pass Interference No-Call
As far as incidental broadcasts of sports profanity go, this is pretty tame (the only less-offensive being your Bobby Knight "chickenshit") but Santonio Holmes' complaint about the no-call on this pass in the second half of the Patriots-Jets SNF matchup is still amusing—especially the belated atte...
Dez Bryant Sends Jim Nantz Into Hysterics With Great Touchdown Grab
Dez Bryant ripped this pass right out of the hands of Leodis McKelvin and scored the Cowboys first touchdown of the day. It is unclear whether a CBS intern was required to get a new pair of underwear for Jim Nantz. We are following up....
Someone Smashed A Window At Jerry Sandusky's House
So, yes, vigilantism/vandalism appears to be the order of the day. (We do not condone or encourage this.) A FOX Philly reporter went to Sandusky's State College home to try and get a comment, and found a front window broken and covered with a sheet. [MyFOXPhilly]...
Lockout Latest: Amar'e And Carmelo Make Adorable <i>Sesame Street</i> Appearance
Not everything that happens during the NBA lockout is bad: Delonte West makes his job applications public, Delonte West makes his broken-down Ford Bronco public, Chris Paul goes on Family Feud, and—provided that they cover up the Adidas logo on their shirts—Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire ge...
Here's Chad McGhee With Your Weekly Knox City Greyhounds Update
Part of Chad McGhee feels bad for the kids on a Paint Creek Pirates football team that got 45-ruled by the mighty Knox City Greyhounds on the first play of the third quarter Friday night. This is likely because Chad is riding the joylightning of a 46-0 victory which clinched a playoff berth for th...
Did This Plaxico Burress Pregame Tribute Spur The Giants To Victory?
"Police say a 50-year-old man accidentally shot himself in the leg in a parking lot at Gillette Stadium before the New England Patriots game against the Giants." He's reportedly OK, so now we can look forward to the play-by-play. [AP]...
