A Reporter Got Fired For Announcing His New Job In An NBA-Style Press Release

Tim Tebow's Sermon On The Hill
If there were any doubt about Tim Tebow's portrayal in the press as the living embodiment of Jesus Christ, this write up of a question and answer session Tebow gave this afternoon is the final nail in palm. Maybe it's deliberately tongue in cheek, but forgive me if I have my doubts....
Warren Sapp Is Broke
TMZ has the exclusive on QB-Killa's bankruptcy, and it's grisly. Sapp owes $6.7 million to his creditors—nearly a million of that to the IRS—and only has $6.45 million on hand. Among that $6.45 million are some distinctly Sapp-y assets:...
John Tortorella Is Pissed Off At Pittsburgh And "Their Two Whining Stars"

Andrew Bynum Is Disgruntled
Andrew Bynum attempting a three on a meaningful possession was funny to most of us, hilarious even. Bynum pouting on the bench and refusing to join the huddle was even better. A mutinous Lakers star pulling a power move on his hapless coach, and Kobe Bryant wasn't involved? The Lakers are the best....

Russell Westbrook High-Fives Omer Asik As He Dunks Over Him

Why The Deal To Keep The Kings In Sacramento May Be Collapsing
"Elation now" crowed the Sacramento Bee when the Maloof Brothers, David Stern, and Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson emerged from lockdown negotations with a plan to build a new arena and keep the Kings from moving to Anaheim. The plan was a good one, as far as publically funded stadiums go: the team a...
<em>Slap Shot</em>: The Only Honest Sports Movie
From the very first scene of Slap Shot, the classic hockey film makes its stance clear: The way everybody talks about sports is bullshit. Denis Lemieux, the befuddled language-challenged Charlestown Chiefs goalie, is on television talking to broadcaster Jim Carr, who is trying to get fans to bring t...
Trent Richardson Smash!
Pro days are serious business. With fewer players taking part in the Combine, whether due to injury or the founded fear that performing can only hurt their draft stock, the highly controlled pro day has become the showcase of choice for the top prospects.

Tripping Basketballs: Hoopsters Are Alive And Well At The Ultra Music Festival
While we declared the end to the Hoopster trend a year and a half ago, the Hoopsters show no signs of quitting—certainly not at this past weekend's Ultra music fest in Miami. For the uninitiated, Ultra is the social event for college kids who love Ecstasy and sort of like electronic music. Here are...
Andrew Bynum's Mini-Mutiny Included Trying A Three, Pouting
There has to be some reason why Andrew Bynum thought it would be a good idea to chuck up a three-pointer with plenty of time on the shot clock in a close game against Golden State. These are the Lakers, and they spend more time sending each other passive-aggressive messages than actually playing b...
In Which LeBron James Dons A Rick James Wig While Singing "Super Freak"
At least that's what Heat owner Micky Arison would have you believe. Whatever LBJ is doing here, it's in the name of charity, as teammate Shane Battier's annual Battioke extravaganza was held tonight in South Beach. Also slated to perform were such legendary musical acts as former Knicks head coach ...
LeBron Dislocates Ring Finger
James injured his left ring finger during last night's loss to Indiana. The team isn't talking, but one report says it could be dislocated. This is your cue to make bad jokes. [ESPN]...
How The Broncos Got Peyton Manning
It came down to Arizona, Tennessee and Denver. Those three teams, sans Miami, that everyone expected to be on Peyton Manning's radar were the three finalists in Manning's search for a new team.
