Angry Alabama Fan Drops The Best Burn On Colin Cowherd
Paul Finebaum welcomed ESPN radio personality and rat-faced gasbag Colin Cowherd onto his radio show yesterday, and the two did some chatting about Auburn's stunning win over Alabama in the Iron Bowl.

Tip-In Or Not, The Nixed FGCU Miracle Bucket Was Shot In Time
College basketball has determined that three-tenths of a second, while a barely blinkable unit of time, is enough to tap in a legal shot.

Don't You Dare Call Mutton Bustin' "Wool Riding"
Part of me loves this Modern Farmer article about mutton bustin', because looking at pictures of small children getting busted by some mutton is always a good time. But part of me also hates it, because it claims that mutton bustin' is also known as "wool riding." That's a foul, Modern Farmer!...
John Henson And His T-Shirt Think The NCAA Is A Scam
Milwaukee Bucks forward John Henson spent three years at the University of North Carolina before jumping to the NBA, and it looks like those three years as a Tar Heel left him with a pretty solid understanding of what the NCAA is really about. You're all right, John Henson....

Thornton Didn't Mean To Hurt The Guy He Tripped And Punched In The Face
When forward Shawn Thornton tripped Brooks Orpik and repeatedly punched him in the head, it sure looked like he knew what he was doing. How could he not have?
