Bayless Overcomes Slow Start, Puts Illini Away In OT

Mark Mangino Makes A New Friend
You had been wondering why the Orange Bowl chose Kansas over Missouri. Now you know....
Which Is The Best Fictional Sports Jersey Of All Time?
This is a bit old, but it needs to be addressed. Someone has posted what they purport to be a list of the top 10 fictional sports jerseys of all time. But by any standard the list is sadly lacking; only a couple of these should even make the top 25 (grumble, grumble get off my lawn). Also, the Dalla...
Bronson Arroyo Brings The Rock
Last night, we saw the Majestic Rock that is The Sword. We left quite rocked. But we ain't seen nothin' yet; Bronson Arroyo is on tour....
The Barry Bonds CourtTV Business Begins
Barry Bonds is going to be arraigned in San Francisco in about 20 minutes or so. We have a hard time firing ourselves up about arraignments; it's pretty much just a bunch of guys in ties saying about 10 words so low that we can't hear them....

Curt Schilling On His Bonus Clause, And Others'
Curt Schilling, on his immaculately typed blog this week, blasted the new Baseball Writers Association rule that says anyone who has an incentive in their contract to win an MVP or Cy Young award will be ineligible. There's money to be lost, but that doesn't seem to be his issue; actually, we're not...
Doug Gottlieb Does Not Like Your Taunts
We don't have as big a problem with ESPN college basketball analyst Doug Gottlieb as some others do. He tends to make Big Controversial Statements, but a lot of the time, he's willing to anger people rather than play the usual "hey, coach, great game!" back-slapping role of the typical hoops analyst...
SHOTY First Round: Isiah Thomas Vs. Marques Slocum
We come, AT LAST, to the end of the first round of SHOTY voting. Yes, it's taken a while; just be glad we have 16 competitors, rather than 64. We would have had to start in June....
Barry Bonds Could Really Use Johnnie Cochran Right About Now
Considering the charges against him — and the public opinion forces, going all the way up to President bush — one would think Barry Bonds' legal team would be coming together and preparing a fierce, scorched earth strategy to take down what are arguably pumped-up charges. One would be wrong....
