Frank Caliendo Does "The Night Before Christmas" As 10 Different ESPNers

Frank Caliendo was on that radio show with the two guys with the same name this morning, and he busted out many of his ESPN impressions to read "The Night Before Christmas."

Alleged Serial Rapist Darren Sharper Indicted On Federal Charges

Yes, there are even more charges against Darren Sharper now.

NBA Shit List: The Philadelphia 76ers, Who Are Capitalism's Diarrhea

Something confounding is happening in Philadelphia. The meanest, vilest, prosthetic-leg-stealingest fanbase in American sports has gone soft for its garbage basketball team, apparently because management promised them a present if they'll all just behave and eat their garbage basketball each nig...

Drake Mixes Up Adam Silver And Donald Sterling During Drake Night

So I guess Drake Night is going to be a yearly tradition for the Toronto Raptors, which is fine by us because Drake + basketball always equals a good time. Last night proved to be no different, when Drake confused NBA commissioner Adam Silver with racist shitbag Donald Sterling....

Nebraska Takes One Last Shot At Bo Pelini After Profane Audio Leak

Recently fired Nebraska coach Bo Pelini held one final meeting with his players, and tore into the school and AD Shawn Eichorst, who he called a "total cunt" and a "total pussy" with "no integrity."

This Looks Like The Year The Celtics Finally Trade Rajon Rondo

Swapping Rajon Rondo trade rumors is America's oldest and most treasured holiday tradition.

There Were A Lot Of Buzzer Beaters In the NBA Tonight

Look, the NBA season is too damn long. Even I, an NBA junkie that watches at least 200 games a year, can see that. Too many teams are tanking, too many teams are on energy crippling back-to-backs, and too many teams have injuries to fully showcase 82 games of high-quality basketball. Among the numer...

Sy Berger, who worked for Topps for 50 years and designed the first "modern" baseball card in 1952, died over the weekend. The New York Times has a nice obituary of him, which also serves as an interesting look at the history of baseball cards. [New York Times]...

Anchor Christmas Ale 2014: Great Tradition, Mediocre Year

My family is woefully short on Christmas traditions. This is largely due to our being a small unit consisting of zero children or Christians, the two things that seem to make this particular holiday go 'round. But we like kids and Christs just fine, and everybody likes days off in the middle of the ...
