Jaguars-Patriots, First Half Live Blog
The team nobody wants to play is playing the other team nobody wants to play. I forget which is which. While the first half of the Green Bay-Seattle game was phenomenal, the remainder pretty much bit the jawbreaker. Let's see if the Patriots and Jaguars can provide a full 60 minutes of entertainment...
Seahawks-Packers, Second Half Live Blog
It appears that Winkles the Sockpuppet has found his way to Wisconsin, somehow, someway, to inspire Green Bay's comeback despite a 14-point deficit way early on. Seahawks fans — everyone, actually — would be wise to follow along for the second half of this incredibly fun game and see if Seattle has ...
Seahawks-Packers, First Half Live Blog
Vince Lombardi's grandson, also named Vince Lombardi, is Seattle-area lawyer, and despite his granddaddy's legacy he's rooting against the Packers. Jim Zorn's children had no idea this was permitted and feel rather shortchanged. (Found through SPORTSbyBROOKS.) Here's a big, hearty cheddar cheese soy...
Watch Your Field Hockey Updates, Buddy
You might remember the NCAA's idiotic decision to ban live-blogging from the press box during the College World Series last year. Well, they've adjusted the policy a bit this year ... in a pretty hilarious way....
Sports Bloggers Are Smarter, Pastier Than You Thought
Ballhype, the site that does the bewildering blog rankings that everyone has figured out how to rig, has commissioned a "study" of the lifestyles and trends among sports bloggers. The results will SHOCK YOU....
This comprehensive — and impressive — breakdown of Deadspin links offers us the unique opportunity to watch someone statistically analyze of the work we do when we're still trying to wake up in the morning. (Your job should provide such good fortune.) We pretty much agree with everything here, thoug...
Hashmarks' Comedic Value Is Superb!
When our old friend Henry Abbott sold his baby True Hoop to ESPN, we wished him luck and begged him to never change. Other than his newfound love of press box food, we haven't noticed much that's too different than the old days, other than that wretched comments section. We're still a fan....
ESPN Would Like You To Inform Them On "Cool"
So, you want to make money on the Web? And do you love sports? Guess what, kids: You can be a a general, editor, Weblogs at ESPN.com!...
NCAA Tournament Live Blog: Friday, 12:20 p.m.
OK, so, maybe we didn't have the most ecstatic day of NCAA basketball yesterday — other than Duke, of course — but we have big hopes for today. (Besides, the most fun we had yesterday afternoon was reading Shanoff's live blog and your comments.) So, we rev it up yet again today. Here are the early g...
Anonymous Blogs Are Sometimes Great
In the tradition of the outstanding TonyHomo.com, an angry (and hilarious) anti-Romo site written anonymously in the voice of Drew Bledsoe (the site was ultimately revealed to be the work of Straight Cash, Homey), comes The Nation Of Islam Sports Blog. It's a blog about sports through the unique pri...
You the Man Now, Blog!
Like everyone else who's ever tinkered with these evil internets, my testicles tingled a bit when Brent Musberger, Bob Davie, and Kirk Herbstreit spent a good two minutes discussing the crazy bloggers who were going to start calling for Lloyd Carr's ouster if he lost to USC. It was one of those na...
You Could Set Your Clock By ESPN Blogs, But Your Clock Would Be Extremely Wrong
Hey, so here's a question: Whatever happened with ESPN's big sports blog initiative?...
Live Playoff Blog: Twins Vs. A's, Game Three
Say what you will about this little postseason tournament, but we've learned one thing: When you're in the ALDS that doesn't feature the Yankees, you play a heckuva lot of day games. This is Game 3 of the A's-Twins series, and we've now live-blogged all three of them. We know these teams a little ...
Live Playoff Blog: Yankees Vs. Tigers, Game 2
Seriously, we can't imagine a worse rainout scenario for fans than this one: Rather than a late-night Wednesday game, you have a Thursday game at 1 p.m. Imagine being at the game last night, at 9:30, thinking it might start, then learning they've cancelled it and you have about 13 hours to get home ...
Live Playoff Blog: Mets Vs. Dodgers, Game One
This is John Maine, and, so it's known, he's really not a bad pitcher. (Why did everyone act like El Duque was somehow Johan Santana, anyway? You know he's about 84 years old, right? Plus, now the Mets have Oliver Perez on their roster, so what could possibly go wrong?)...
Live Playoff Blog: Twins Vs. A's, Game Two
It seems strange to have a 1 p.m. start the day after the same two teams played at the same time the day before, but hey, it's Minnesota. Those folks should feel lucky ESPN's even showing their game!...
Live Playoff Blog: Twins Vs. A's, Game One
Well, all right, we did this last year, so let's rev it up again. We know you're stuck at work while there's a freaking playoff game on, and we know that, at times like this, the MLB GameCast isn't quite enough....
World Cup Final Live Blog: Italy Vs. France
Well, it took long enough, but it's finally time for the World Cup Final. It's your favorite divers from Italy against the surrender monkeys from France. It's non-stop fun; it's the World Cup....
