And The Wind Cried St. Mary's
Take that, teabaggers: St. Mary's proved its Top 25 mettle by jizz-bombing the San Francisco Fightin' Whatevertheyarecalleds, 76-51. Yusef Smith scored 15 points off the bench for St. Mary's. Eddie Sutton apparently had an accident on the sidelines and is still trying to adjust to a more provincial ...
Curt Schilling Has Surgery By Blog
Another thing we love about Curt Schilling's blog: When offseason news items come up, he just gives "no comments" to all media and then writes about it there. This led the following beautiful words on the ESPN crawl: "ESPN's Jayson Stark reports that Schilling has no comment." Hey, thanks, Jayson!...

Kevin Hart Made The Whole Thing Up
We just arrived in Alameda and we're going to spend some time playing Tetris working, but the news just broke: Kevin Hart, the kid who had supposedly been duped by a recruiter into thinking Cal and Oregon wanted him ... made the whole thing up. No: Seriously....
Time For Blue Devils, Tar Heels Again
Even though our guys are falling apart and college basketball mostly exists right now solely to make us sad, it's impossible not to be fired up by a fiery North Carolina-Duke game when both teams are in the top five. And Vitale's back tonight too. They should have eased him in with a Gonzaga game o...
Light Dawns On The Patriots
We have made no secret of our enduring love of The Dugout, both in its original incarnation and its current, non-expletive form at AOL Sports. But you think these guys just know baseball? Pshaw....
