That means keeping track of different mode...
Sonya Curry Back On American Radars
I don't understand the Sonya Curry phenomenon. (Actually, I didn't even know there was one, but apparently it's tearing up the charts.) The mother of Davidson sharpshooter Stephen Curry is an attractive 40-something teacher and a former athlete herself, but does that really make her any more interes...
49ers' Willis Employs Five Pointed Palm Exploding Heart Technique
The big question in San Francisco right now: Should Mike Singletary be kept on as head coach next season?

Resistance Is Futile: Yankees Assimilate Sabathia
So thanks for getting my hopes up. CC Sabathia is currently visiting the San Francisco Bay Area — he was born in the northern Calif. hamlet of Vallejo — and speculation was that he was flirting with the idea of becoming a Giant. And when you think about it, who wouldn't want to pitch at AT&T Park? B...

USC Wins Hypothetical Playoff According To Vegas Odds
Leave it to Las Vegas to sate all our needs. Even those we didn't know we had before. (I'm looking at you midget escort service.) Everyone knows that the idea of a playoff is so awfully complicated that it would require a Manhattan Project-level commitment before anything could happen. Or, you know...
Do The Lions Still Have The Stink Of Matt Millen On Them?
You gotta feel for Dominic Raiola. The Lion's center was the second player ever drafted by Matt Millen and has been forced to play every single game of his terrible reign in Detroit. So Dominic is understandably frustrated with the way his otherwise successful career has developed. Can anyone really...

Gator Fan Threatened With Gun
"A 51-year-old woman yelling "Go Gators" during Florida's victory over Alabama in the Southeastern Conference championship game had a gun pointed at her by a convicted felon who entered her apartment after he misunderstood the cheering for racial slurs." Sounds like justifiable homicide to me. [Dumb...

Now that "boom goes the dynamite" has officially peaked as a cultural phenomenon, it's time to find a new contender for amateur sports announcer catchphrases that will set the internet on fire.

Italian Goal Celebrations Getting More Disturbing By The Minute
Italian Serie B forward Cristiano Lucarelli is no stranger to controversy; he's a fan of Che Guevera, and has been criticized for his frequent two-fisted communist salute goal celebrations. But that's nothing compared to what you'll see in the video below. The only way to describe it, I suppose, is ...
Kevin McHale To Take A More Active Role In The Failure Of The Timberwolves
The Minnesota Timberwolves are 4-15, which is not the worst record in their division, but it's far from the best.
