Inigo Martinez, a defender for Real Sociedad, broke open a 2-2 tie against Real Betis yesterday with a goal from about 60 yards out.

Tyler Palko Is Not The Next Kurt Warner
During Monday Night Football last week, Ron Jaworski briefly speculated that Tyler Palko was following the Kurt Warner archetype, of a guy who bumbles around for a while before finally getting his shot in the NFL. As Jaws pointed out, Kurt Warner didn't get his first NFL start until he was 28 year...

The Taiwanese Animation For The Penn State Scandal Is Batshit Insane, Even By Taiwanese Animation Standards
Did you know these videos aren't even aimed at Taiwanese people? Next Media Animation knows their twisted takes on Western news play well in America. It's been a while since we ran one of them, because by pumping them out almost daily they've watered down what was once a special treat. But their v...

The heroes of State College are treasured, but not tenured. Earlier today an image of Jerry Sandusky on a massive mural in downtown State College was painted over.

A Night At The Movies, Watching <em>Moneyball</em> With Yogi Berra
Jason Gay of the Wall Street Journal took Mr. and Mrs. Yogi Berra to see Moneyball. Yogi liked the movie, although not Philip Seymour Hoffman's dour Art Howe. "'Art's a good guy,' he says. 'And I never saw him that fat. He's thin.'" [WSJ]...
