This Fake Rumor About Jay Wright Resigning Because He Knocked Up A Co-Ed Is So Old, The Baby Could Have Been Born By Now
This rumor has been kicking around on Twitter and at least one Big East message board the last couple of days. It made its way into our inbox on Monday night. Note that Wright was initially going to resign yesterday:...
Name The Royal Baby!
I have no idea what the protocol is for naming an heir to throne of England. I assume that Prince William and Kate Middleton are free to think up names as they please, before the queen walks in with a terrifying grimace and her dumb corgis and politely tells the couple that none of their names will ...
Good News, Mark Sanchez: You Still Have One Fan In The NFL. Bad News: It's Braylon Edwards.
Braylon Edwards, who is currently a useless member of the Seattle Seahwaks, used to be semi-relevant when he played for the New York Jets. As such, Edwards has strong opinions about the current state of the Jets franchise, specifically the struggles of Mark "Buttfumble" Sanchez....

Tim Duncan And Tony Parker Mock-Executed Their Referee Nemesis Joey Crawford On Halloween
From what we can tell, this photo only started making the rounds yesterday, even though the Spurs night out on Halloween had been well-documented otherwise. These are the same costumes Tim Duncan and Tony Parker wore then—Duncan as the Punisher, because of course he'd pick a relatively obscure comi...

NBA Ref Joey Crawford Made A Terrible Foul Call, Celebrated It With A Ridiculous Dance
Our friends over at With Leather once called referee Joey Crawford "the worst thing about the NBA." It's hard to argue with them after seeing his latest stunt. After a night of showboating in the Pacers-Lakers game tonight, he capped off his performance with a questionable blocking call—one that p...
And Now The ACC Is Suing Maryland
In these crazypants days of realignment, the best thing a conference can do to solidify its membership is to sign a big, juicy TV contract. The ACC failed at that, so they did the next best thing: they raised the exit fee to $50 million dollars....

Beer Of The Week: Big Rock Brewery's Honey Brown Lager
This weekend the Canadian Football League season culminates with a game called the Grey Cup, in its 100th incarnation. A team called the Stampeders, out of Calgary, is visiting Toronto to play the Argonauts. In rough American equivalence this is Dallas against New York, a big game with a dose of civ...

Here's A Young Basketball Fan Unabashedly Ogling A Cheerleader
I kind of feel bad for this kid. I mean, you can see the exact moment that he goes into total sensory overload. He's got courtside seats, and then there is free candy in his face, and then OH MY GOD BOOBIES. SUCH BIG BOOBIES. It's too much for one young man to handle....
University Of Iowa Suspends Two Members Of Wrestling Team After They Were Allegedly Caught Hunting Rabbits On Campus
Iowa Hawkeyes wrestlers probably reside in an awkward position. They're some of the best in the nation at their sport—the team won NCAA titles in 2008, 2009, and 2010—but they're also wrestlers, which means they inevitably carry all sorts of antibiotic-resistant strains of ringworm and staph and are...
<i>Red Dawn</i>: The Movie That Will Make You Hate America
In general, I don't put a lot of stock in criticisms that accuse Hollywood movies of influencing social behavior. Yes, some films glorify violence, but rather than inspiring horrible acts, I think Hollywood mostly responds to what's already out there in the culture, catering to particular audiences ...
Arizona Quarterback Returns From Concussion, Promptly Pukes Again
Remember Matt Scott? He's the Arizona quarterback who unleashed a flood of vomit after a helmet-to-helmet collision against USC a few weeks ago. Wildcats coaches asserted Scott was fine and did not, in fact, suffer a concussion during that game—but he did suffer one the next week against UCLA. Tha...
Democracy In The <em>Raw</em>: The WWE Comes To Post-Revolutionary Egypt
CAIRO—Outside the International Cairo Stadium complex, there were maybe a dozen policemen on horseback greeting the crowd for World Wrestling Entertainment's first visit to Egypt. Families had brought little kids, and vendors hawked national flags and SpongeBob SquarePants t-shirts....
The Weirdest And Worst Ballots Of MLB Awards Voting
Just because voting is subjective does not mean voters can't be wrong. So, with the knowledge that no ballot will make everyone happy, and with sincere appreciation for the BBWAA making all ballots public, let's hand out some awards to the most mystifying, inexplicable, and just downright terrible M...

Atlanta police are seeking the arrest of six-time WNBA all-star and two-time Naismith Award-winner Chamique Holdsclaw, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Former Texans Punter Suing Reliant Stadium Owners For Being Injured By Its Crappy Field
This week, the Texans brought in a handful of veteran kickers for tryouts. They're reportedly happy with Shayne Graham's field goals, but wish he could get a little more distance on kickoffs. They had a decent candidate last year, an undrafted rookie K/P out of Central Michigan named Brett Hartmann,...
