Mark Mangino, Your Photo Gallery
We don't know about you, but we're entranced by Kansas coach Mark Mangino. He's like Rick Majerus, but less cartoonish. He looks like what we want football coaches to look like; sorry, ladies, but he's married!...

Your Daily A-Rod Update (Sorry)
Hey, we haven't checked in with good ole Alex Rodriguez in a while. What's that crazy cat up to?...

Ben Cohen Is Much Less Gay Than Sebastien Gacond
You might remember the saga of Sebastien Gacond, the triathlete who wanted to make it as clear as possible that he did not like sweaty testicles in his face. (He's not gay; NO. He's into chicks, man.) Well, rugby player Ben Cohen, who has developed a far wider following of gay men, is quite proud of...

The Big Ten Is Having Exhibition Troubles
It's a good thing Ohio State has the No. 1 football team in the country and is all caught up in those Terrifying Fighting Illini this week, because otherwise they might have noticed that the basketball team lost an exhibition game to Division II Findlay last night....

Warriors Refuse To Come Out And Play
• Who Still Believes? A glaring absence of celebrity fans on Tuesday in Oakland, as the Warriors dropped to 0-4 with a 108-104 loss to the Cavaliers. My yellow "We Believe" T-shirt has only been worn once, and already is in danger of becoming obsolete. In the meantime, let's let Golden State of Mind...

About Last Night
What you missed while stomping the yard ... • NBA: Many of us are not ready to live in a world where the Knicks are good. • NHL: Eaves of Destruction ... Senators 5, Maple Leafs 1. • College basketball: The Oilers do not fear the Big Ten! Findlay 70, Ohio State 68....

Welcome Back College Hoops, Everybody!
We know we haven't done the best job previewing the upcoming college basketball season, but it's not for lack of interest: It's just that there are so many freaking teams, man. We couldn't even figure out how to organize it. But don't worry: We absolutely cannot contain our excitement that college b...

Bill James Has Really Let Himself Go
This is from over the weekend, but we weren’t here over the weekend, so we have to weigh in on this particularly entertaining Kansas fan....

Get Your Disgusting Piece Of Red Sox Memorabilia Here
What, you might ask, is that little piece of biomatter next to that dime? We're kind of afraid to tell you....

When We Beer Bong Together, We Are One
In one of those, "Hey, look, opposing fans can all get along" stories, Kansas City and Green Bay fans come together to experience the Doc Ock. The guy wearing the Ahman Green jersey is our favorite....

Joe Torre, All Hollywood Now
Joe Torre took his triumphant first bow as manager of the Dodgers yesterday, but as anyone who sees this picture can tell you, he was mostly just there to channel Enrico Palazzo....

You're Not Getting Rid Of Schilling That Easily
For one day only, it's the return of the Daily Closer!...

Tickets Prices At Fenway Have Increased Somewhat
A reader, digging through some of their dad's old things, found a relic from the mid-80s that couldn't be more dated than if it showed a picture of Flock of Seagulls....

The Mavericks Invite You To Eat Their Dust
Those of you constantly demanding to see Dirk Nowitzki leaning out of a car window while taking a lap at the Texas Motor Speedway can stop your letters and e-mails: Your wish has finally been granted. Of course now that I see it, I have the urge to jump in the car and take my dog for a drive. Come'...

About Last Night
What you missed because you didn't have a good excuse to miss work ... • NBA: Hey, perhaps the Mavericks aren't finished after all. Dallas 107, Houston 98. • NFL: Big Ben approves of throwback unis. Steelers 38, Ravens 7. • College basketball: Walking in Memphis ... Rose debut is sweet indeed....


Chase Is Living the Life
I'm not sure if this picture is from Halloween or if Arizona sophomore Chase Budinger is just a big fan of Larry Bird, but that hardly matters. Who wouldn't want to be a basketball player at the U of A (One lucky soul even got the privilege of being my neighbor for a couple of seasons)? You're alway...

Isiah, Knicks Manage To Stay Out Of Trouble For A Day
Ed. note: This was supposed to go up this morning, but better late than never.• Are You Going To Get In The Truck? First our Isiah Thomas quote of the day: "It's always good to win your home opener, and for us here in New York we struggled last year at the start of the season at home,'' Thomas said....

Ground Bacon Burgers For All
The Mighty MJD's Smorgasbord runs every Monday. Do enjoy. • The waitress this week is Muff Stubble Girl, who you might recall from past Smorgasbords this season. I shouldn't call her that anymore ... one, because it's not very nice, and two, because her pants are at a reasonably normal level these d...
