Samuel Peter Had a Bad Day; Klitschko and Dawson Win Big
Vitali Klitschko made his return to the ring after a retirement that lasted nearly four years, all the while looking like he'd never left the gym.

Sarah Palin Booed At Flyers Game, Did Not Take Battery To The Face
The GOP's vice presidential nominee was in the hizzy for the Flyers' opener last night. The chorus of boos that began as soon as she was seen were blasted out by some loud music and (some have said) artificial crowd noise. Palin walked onto the ice before the start of the game to help drop the cerem...
Snip My Child's Foreskin, Please!
So what did we learn today? Other than maybe learning that Mack Brown can win the big games, RichRod can't win the little games, and that taking the points against Utah is wallet suicide, I learned this...and I don't have any clue how to react: Friend of Deadspin and unabashed Tim Tebow superfan Dan...
Tampa Bay Rays Still Have A Bit Of Youthful Arrogance
So much for the idea that these young Rays are made up of honest-to-goodness, hardworking, gritty players just happy to be included in the postseason festivities for the first time; they got some swagger in them.

Tommy Bowden Is Not Very Good
Right now Craig James and Doug Flutie are having a little fun comparing Michigan to Toledo. That came on the heels of the Wolverines' surrendering a pick-six to...Toldeo's Tyrrell Herbert?

Peyton Manning Kind Of Awkward In A Public Setting
Let's all get together and laugh at a famous person acting like a real human being! To be fair, it's not really Peyton's fault.

ALCS Game One Live Blog: Red Sox Vs. Rays
It's Friday night. What better time than to drink away your stock market losses and vaguely remember which AL East team dominated the first game of a curiously exciting ALCS.

Curt Schilling's Doctor Thinks Boston Could Use Another Arm Right Now

Jerry Jones On Pacman Scuffle: Nothing To See Here. Move Along
First of all, I have a feeling that the movie Max Payne is going to make me want to punch someone myself. Just a hunch.

ALCS Preview: Rays Vs. Red Sox
It is perhaps a clear indication that I drink a bit more than I should that, when I saw that the Rays and the Red Sox had both clinched on the same night, I thought, "Whew, good. Now one team won't be more hungover than the other one in Game 1." Hey, sometimes these things matter. I have to speak o...

John Lackey Will Reverse Earth's Orbit And Keep Replaying This Game Until Angels Win
So for those scoring at home, Boston's 3-2, walkoff victory on Monday was the third time that the Red Sox have eliminated the Angels from the division series (2004 and 2007 were the others), a fact that did not sit well with LA starter John Lackey. In fact, Lackey insisted after the game that Boston...
Red Sox Squeeze Into ALCS
Not even Rally Monkey's shocking murder earlier in the game could keep the Angels from setting themselves up to win Game 4 of the ALDS, with Reggie Willits occupying third base with one out in the top of the ninth. But then, a botched squeeze bunt, resulting Red Sox catcher Jason Varitek's ass tag o...
