The Struggling Padres' Turnaround Plan? Reunite The 2006 Cardinals Rotation
The 2006 St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series despite bad starting pitching. They had Chris Carpenter and a brigade of abysmal complements: Jeff Weaver, Anthony Reyes, and Jeff Suppan. During the regular season, washed-up Mark Mulder, Sidney Ponson, and Jason Marquis also started. Yeah. It was g...
Amar'e Stoudemire Returns, Knicks Flunk Chemistry
The ingredients were all there for wild and frothing beakers to report on the Knicks game last night: A Friday night. A terrible opponent.

UK's entire starting five—freshmen Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, and Marquis Teague, and sophomores Doron Lamb and Terrence Jones—announced they'll be leaving Lexington after a national championship.

Carmelo Anthony And The Promise Of Hero Ball
It's April, and Carmelo Anthony owns New York again.

The love-in has begun, and the n...
Chow Fun: Jeremy Lin Has A Pleasant Lunch With "Chink In The Armor" Headline Writer
Anthony Federico, the former ESPNer who wrote the "Chink In The Armor" headline for which he has been apologizing to anyone who'll stand still long enough, tells Newsday: "We talked more about matters of faith [and] reconciliation. We talked about our shared Christian values and what we're both tryi...
Kentucky Fan Creates Living Monument To Wildcats' Anthony Davis
The mystery of life: Using only a razor, this man has created an homage to that which Davis could destroy with the very same razor. Update 10:39 p.m.: I've decided that my favorite part is the drawn-in unibrow on his finger. Like, "OK, I will draw on—and around—my nipples and shave my chest hair in...
Phony Penn State Baseball Star And Potential Trustee Made An Absurd Campaign Video
There he is: Anthony Lubrano. So majestic, so clean-shaven. So statuesque, presiding over the sports complex that bears his name.

Linsanity Was Unbelievable; Carmelodrama Is Just Incomprehensible
There was no Knicks game last night. But the Knicks—the doomed, imploding Knicks—are today's big sports news in New York, even if Carmelo Anthony hasn't really requested a trade, even if Mike D'Antoni is secure in his coaching job*, even if the last game the team played was a tight road loss in Chic...
Carmelo Anthony Did Not Want J.R. Smith On The Knicks
J.R. Smith has made quite the impression since signing with the Knicks last month. He's shooting 37 percent from the field and has already been fined $25,000 for tweeting a picture of the "girl with the biggest ass ever." But it's not like the Knicks weren't warned. The New York Post reports that Ca...
Penn State Alum And Potential Trustee Is Not A Baseball Star, Doesn't Feel The Need To Correct Anyone Who Says Otherwise
The Penn State Nittany Lions play baseball in Medlar Field at Lubrano Park. Anthony Lubrano, according to Penn State's media guide, was a four time varsity letter man at the school from 1979-1982.

Charles Oakley And Anthony Mason Had Some Profane Opinions On Those Awful Raptors Jerseys
Flash back to the '95-96 season, when the Toronto Raptors entered the NBA wearing their cartoon dinosaur jersey. (It's incredible that this was only 16 years ago, and someone thought these were okay. I mean, they were mocked at the time, but not enough. Not enough.) A former Raps employee recalls a ...
