Here's The Wizznutzz Turning John Hollinger Into A Zagat's Of Existential Basketball Despair
Last week, ESPN's John Hollinger broke down the strengths and weaknesses of the Washington Wizards roster (Insider).

Like Everyone Else, DeAngelo Williams Doesn't Care About Your Fantasy Team
Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams had a disappointing game on Sunday, carrying the ball six times for six yards and fumbling once. Overall, it has not been a good season for Williams (Week 1 line: six rushes for a loss of one yard and one catch for five yards), and it didn't make him feel bet...
Did TBS Crap Out On You During The Playoffs? Blame The Sun.
Ah, the sun. Giver of life. Grower of crops. Sworn enemy of the MLB Playoffs on TBS.

Minnesota Vikings Beat Writer Wanted Mike Munchak To Sound The Rusty Trombone
Matt Hasselbeck had kind of a rough day against the Vikings and probably deserved to get yanked, but I think we can all agree that Vikings beat writer Tom Pelissero was probably referring to the "sad trombone" or maybe the old vaudeville gimmick of pulling a guy off the stage with a cane when he sen...

Twitter Lets Bud Selig Know That The Teams With Better Records Are Getting Screwed
SI's Jay Jaffe had it pretty much pegged in August: the MLB's Division Series format this year makes just about no sense, and as a result, we're seeing teams with superior records (and more exciting stories, like the upstart A's) wading into unfriendly waters for their first two games. It's already ...

Roger Federer Finds "Bizarre Death Threat" Mildly Distracting
Roger Federer is in China, playing in the Shanghai Masters tournament along with most of the upper-tier tennis circuit. Yesterday, he had a first round bye, so he didn't play any tennis, and he also wasn't killed. The last bit wouldn't qualify as news were it not for the death threat that came Feder...

Kansas City Royals Broadcaster May Have Written The Next Great Love Song
To my mind, the most important part of a love song is a memorable first line. It's also the hardest part. So it was with great admiration and not just a little jealousy that we viewed Royals pre and post-game man Joel Goldberg's sneak peek into the writing process....

Here's How Tavon Austin Dominated The First Quarter With Just Six Touches
It's not too often you get to see a player that doesn't line up in the backfield dominate a game over a stretch of time, but it happened for a quarter tonight.

Auburn Wrests Title Of "Team Everyone Wants To Play" From Arkansas
Arkansas beat Auburn today, which in itself wouldn't be so strange except that as recently as this morning it was reasonable to ask whether Arkansas would ever win another game, ever, ever. The Hogs were a preseason top-10 team that lost f̶i̶v̶e̶ four games—in September. If someone was to cushion th...
