Deron Williams Has His Own Personal Beat Writer [UPDATE]
Here's an odd story from today's Wall Street Journal, about a new member of the Brooklyn Nets corps of beat writers.

Drunk On Victory, Local DC Sports Reporter Loses His Mind After A Wizards Win
The lowly Wizards beat the Miami Heat in a real-life basketball game last night.

A deliriously giddy Jenkins, who may or may not have been under the influence ...

Kevin Durant Almost Exploded The Universe On This Missed Dunk
For my money, a thunderous, rim-rattling, shockwave-inducing dunk is best when it comes on the road. At home, the crowd will erupt, but they'll erupt for anything: a layup, cheerleaders, a taco cannon, whatever, they're already primed to react. But if you can get a reaction in a visiting arena, wh...

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 ...

Report: Arkansas Will Hire Wisconsin's Bret Bielema To Be Its Football Coach
Yahoo's Pat Forde was first with the news a few minutes ago that Bret Bielema will be leaving Wisconsin for Arkansas.

Good News, Mark Sanchez: You Still Have One Fan In The NFL. Bad News: It's Braylon Edwards.

Israeli Basketball Star Suspended For Calling Opponent A Nazi

They Caught The Vikings Fan Who Wore A Purple Sombrero And Knocked Out A 50-Year-Old Man Outside Lambeau
This is Mark Swanson, from Lakeland, Minn. He was involved in the big brawl outside Lambeau Field after the Packers beat the Vikings, but if you were there you probably don't recognize him from his mug shot. That's because, according to police, he was wearing a large purple sombrero and a Vikings po...

Browns Red Zone airs Mondays on SportsTime Ohio. The hosts—Jim Donovan, Tony Grossi, and Doug Dieken, break down the previous day's game, and take calls from viewers who want to discuss the Browns.

Over the weekend, Mike Tyson sat down for an interview on In Depth with Graham Bensinger.

Two Virginia Tech Players Charged With Building, Setting Off Explosive Device [Update]
Walk-ons Josh Trimble and Brian Rody haven't picked a major, but perhaps chemistry would suit them: the two were able to build some sort of explosive device, and set it off in an off-campus apartment last night. Unfortunately, both those things are against the law....

The Plot Thickens: Whoever Owns Nets.com Has Found A New Way To Mess With Mikhail Prokhorov
Someone out there—a company named Cyber Mesa, we think—is under the impression that touting Jay-Z will get on Mikhail Prokhorov's nerves enough to make him a buy a (presumably very expensive) domain name....

Soccer Player Wipes Ass With Money, Brits Lose Their Shit
West Bromwich defender Liam Ridgewell won a bet with a friend about eight months ago and took the picture you see to the right as a way of gloating.

Nebraska's Kenny Bell Delivered The Best Legal Block In College Football This Season, So Of Course He Was Flagged For It
Last night's Big Ten championship game victory for Wisconsin was a blowout snoozer, complete with malfunctioning t-shirt cannon and with a final score of 70-31.
