Back To You In The Booth, Lamar
So it may not come as a surprise to anyone that more suspensions have come down following the steel cage match between the University of Miami and Florida International football teams on Saturday. A total of 31 players have been dinged — and must sit out their respective games this weekend — 18 from...

This Morning, It Seems Like Everyone Is Named Carlos
As usual when we watch a playoff baseball game involving our beloved Cardinals, we spent the first four innings of last night's Mets-Cardinals NLCS Game 4 pacing around the room, muttering to ourselves, randomly spitting out expletives and all together looking like anything but someone engaging in a...

About Last Night...

Live From Detroit...
The following words are from Ray Wert, associate editor with our homeboys Jalopnik. He likes Detroit, cars, and the Tigers... maybe even some combination of Eminem, Kid Rock, and Aretha Franklin. He was fortunate enough to be at the Tigers/A's game yesterday this photo gallery....

One Series Almost Over, One Just Getting Started
For a while last night, it seemed like there was a pretty good chance that the Tigers/A's series would actually be over before the Mets/Cardinals game. The Cardinals posted a manly three-run ninth inning to finally win a 3-hour and 58-minute game that did not go into extra innings....

About Last Night...
• MLB Playoffs: Tigers 3, A's 0. 3-0. Not just last night's game, but the series, too. • College Football: Pitt 52, Central Florida 7. Pitt was able to hang on to that 38-0 halftime lead behind the power of LaRod. • MLB Playoffs: Cardinals 9, Mets 6. Six to nine. TeeHee....

Behold The Glory That Is Gilbert
In case you had any doubt that Wizards superstar Gilbert Arenas is the most subtly weirdo human in sports right now, DC Sports Bog invites you to check out this month's Esquire interview with Agent Zero himself. The level of pure oddity is pretty much off the charts. Some highlights, culled from DC ...

Cory Lidle: Enough Already?
Some of you may be a bit weary of Cory Lidle coverage by now, and if that's the case, you are sympatico with Planet Haystack. The Maryland-based blog, as always, has a slightly different, definitely un-P.C. take on the entire affair. An excerpt:...

Ethan Albright Is In Fact Able To Walk Upright
As Madden 07 obsessives know, Washington Redskins lineman and ginger kid Ethan Albright is the lowest-rated player in the game, with a rating that barely gives him enough aptitude to stand up and walk in something resembling a straight line. We have wondered if Albright knows about this, or cares, a...

Canvassing the blogs on the Mets' 2-0 win over the Cardinals in Game One of the NLCS:...

Everywhere One Looks, It's Beltran
Yesterday, we talked about the 2004 National League Championship Series between the Cardinals and Astros, and how it was the best series we had ever seen. We, stupidly, did not mention the words "Carlos Beltran," which was odd, considering the guy showed up in our nightmares for months afterwards. (...

All Right, Weaver, Put Down The Smokes And Let's Go
The weather reports appear to be clear as one could reasonably hope for this evening, so it looks like the Cardinals and Mets are finally going to kick off their NLCS, with Jeff Weaver taking on a now very rested Tom Glavine. Because of the rainout, the series is going with five games in five days, ...

Soon, Congress Will Make The Wizards Illegal
If you haven't heard, the Washington Wizards' new slogan for the 2006-07 season is "Go All In," which is possibly a reference to Gilbert Arenas' love of playing online poker at halftime and is definitely not something that makes much sense. To quote DC Sports Bog:...

What They Did On Their Day Off
Though the woman in this photo apparently didn't get the memo, anyone in the New York City area yesterday, when not preoccupied with planes coming out of the sky and Alec Baldwin all full of bustle, knew there wasn't going to be a NLCS game last night. It was pouring rain and was just getting wors...
