Oh, sure, this is supposedly an image of Ryan Briscoe, the Aussie driver who will sit the pole for Sunday's Indy 500, but then a bespectacled Roger Sterling in a "Gold Swagger" t-shirt (which the real Roger Sterling would totally wear) decided he needed to be in on the fun. He also appears to have ...
Eric Hassli's Stoppage Time Volley Proved The Existence Of A Canadian Rocket Program
While the Voyageurs Cup may be one of soccer's less-prestigious trophies, claiming it in the Canadian Championship does have its rewards: specifically, an invite to the CONCACAF Champions League.

If Omaha Is Giving Jake "The Juggernaut" Ellenberger A Key To The City, Omaha Must Have Too Many Keys
Omaha has produced some important people: Warren Buffett, Marlon Brando, Malcom X, Chris Klein. But what's all this about MMA fighter Jake "The Juggernaut" Ellenberger getting a key to the city? Hold on a tick. Ellenberger is a very good fighter who's beaten a couple very good fighters and a bunch o...

NBA's Opening Day: A Knuckle-Deep Recap
The NBA's Opening Day spectacular matched such high-profile teams, it was hard to pick winners.

It all followed on a preseason in which the Mavericks went drilling for oil with t...

Biz Markie; And Other Things That Happen In Eight-Hour Baseball Games
There's a special kind of masochism that comes with staying up to watch a marathon baseball game, like last night's Angels/Red Sox tilt that didn't wrap up until 2:45 am. You know you're going to feel like shit in the morning, and you can only pray your team wins so it wasn't all for naught....

Canadian Hero Steve Nash Pumps Up Fellow Canadians At Canadian MLS Game
Steve Nash attended the Vancouver Whitecaps' first regular season game this weekend and, almost on his own, totally pumped up the crowd. The part-owner stands up in a personalized MLS jersey and waves a scarf back and forth, to the utter delight his countrymen. If inspiring the home crowd was Nash...
Vandy Pitcher Takes Liner Off Knee, Still Gets The Assist
Corey Williams, a redshirt freshman at Vanderbilt, had his knee obliterated by a hot shot up the middle and still recorded the 1-3 putout. I hope the next mound he pitches on has a ramp though....
American Legal System Officially Invested In Brett Favre's Status
In the middle of the StarCaps trial, the plaintiffs' attorney asked Brad Childress — under oath — who the Vikings quarterback will be. Sixth Amendment be damned, Favre's will-he-won't-he game is anything but a speedy trial. [Star Tribune]...
StarCaps Case Takes Heller-esque Turn
A judge says that for Kevin and Pat Williams's cases to proceed, they have to prove they are employed by the NFL, while the league maintains they are solely Vikings employees. Does Deadspin LLP care to weigh in? [Star Tribune]...

Terrell Owens Suddenly Remembers He Has This Thing He Has To Be At

Lisa Leslie: Expect Bricks
The Superstars was only an hour this week! (Stupid Michael Jackson tributes.) But could they pack 90 minutes of excitement into just one tiny action-packed primetime block? Who likes missed lay-ups?...
