College Football Preview: Check Your Messages Knowshon
LSU fans aren't only the most insane in college football, they're also the most resourceful. Perhaps insanity and resourcefulness aren't conflicting traits after all. Why do I say this?

Arizona Basketball Is Kind Of A Mess Right Now
See update below ... Late yesterday, Lute Olson finally made it official—he's dunzo at the University of Arizona. (That also means Dick Vitale was ... *shudder* ... correct.)

Lute Olson Finds It Hard To Say Goodbye
Still no official word from the University of Arizona on Lute Olson's alleged retirement as the head coach of the Wildcats. Perhaps that's because he decided to inform more important people first.

Marathon Runner Blows Away Field, Receives Bright And Shiny Piece Of Nothing
Foot races are the oldest form of athletic competition there is and even after 4,000 years or so the premise remains the same: Point A to Point B, who ever gets there first wins. Unless you're at the Nike Women's Marathon in San Francisco, a race that Arien O'Connell foolishly assumed she's won, sim...

LA Times Sports Writer Chooses Not to Lop Off Penis; Paper is Thrilled

Um, What The Hell, Patriots Fans?
Sorry to start your day off on the wrong foot, but several people have sent this in; a fan at the Monday Night game in Foxboro last night purportedly wearing blackface. I guess that's what this is — a closer shot is shown following the jump — although I'm no expert on such matters. Would Ted Danson ...

Jay Cutler Out to Prove his Arm is Bigger Than His Mouth
Tonight, the Denver Broncos and mouthy quarterback Jay Cutler swagger into Foxboro and will attempt to frustrate the completely neutralized New England Patriots on their home field.
