Browns Fans Are A Joyous Sort
Apropos of nothing — we haven't said that in a while — here's a Photoshop creation to honor those happy Cleveland Browns fans. Somehow, Brady Quinn is not in this picture, dancing or rocking out to Warrant....
Fausto, Sans Devil, Beats Beckett
Faustus is Latin for "auspicious" ... so Fausto must mean the same thing, maybe? My spanish is not adequate. Remember when the Indians wanted to make Fausto Carmona a closer? Oh, those wacky coaches. The last time Carmona faced the Red Sox — last season — he blew two consecutive save opportunities. ...
Minor League Pitcher Pokes MLB On Facebook
Right-handed pitcher Jensen Lewis, 23, owned AAA hitters over the last month. At Buffalo he has posted a record of 1-0 with a save and a 1.38 ERA in 10 games, eight of which were scoreless....
Brady Quinn's Unskinny Bop
Thanks, Mondesi's House, for reminding us once again that there is absolutely nothing like a Brady Quinn photo. That's Bret Michaels. Of course it is....
MLB Gets Its Rockwell On
Sure, Major League Baseball might have had a little trouble figuring out that whole steroid issue thing, but it's nice to be made aware that they've got their finger on the pulse of one of the game's most serious problems: Time wasting....
The WIZZNUTZZ Have An Audio Book ... What More Could You Possibly Ask For?
Shitsy Spitsy has done magical things for Cleveland ... and will do so for you, if you can give him 15 of your internet minutes today. I am awed....

Your Gripping NBA Champions
It is probably not a good sign that the morning after we crown a new NBA champion — and we do congratulate the Spurs, sure — more people are emailing us about a guy who hasn't been in the NBA for 11 years than they are about the game. (To be fair, the story did involve masturbation.) When's the draf...
Our Long National Nightmare Could End Tonight
We're not sure what the official name is for what we'll be doing to the Spurs when if they win the NBA Championship tonight. Will we coronate them? Dub them a dynasty? Crown their asses?...
Whew! Now The Cavaliers Have A Chance!
We would like to formally congratulate LeBron James who, just in time for Game 4, became a father for the second time at 12:15 this morning. The kid's name is "Bryce Maximus James," which is exactly what our parents once considered naming us....
Trying To Salvage What's Left Of The NBA Season
As we sift through the carnage of a mostly D.O.A. NBA Finals, we wonder: Can anything save it at this point? The popular theory is that Cavs coach Mike Brown is destroying any slim hope his team has — maybe he should play Eric Snow more — and, in addition, he's making the games excruciating to watch...
The Witnesses May Step Down
This picture kind of sums up why the NBA Finals, after the brief hope of LeBron's ascension, has become a must-miss: People flailing around, grabbing each other, and the Spurs efficiently cruising along. Last night was closer, we suppose, but we just can't fire ourselves up that much for an NBA Fina...
Will The Cavs Make This Even Slightly Interesting?
The ratings are down, the excitement level is low, and the day after Game Two, every sports site from ESPN to us was talking more about "The Sopranos" than yet another Spurs dismantling. And you think there were yawns yesterday? If the Spurs win tonight, bringing this to 3-0, people will be leading ...
Ichiro Does Not Think Cleveland Rocks
If it's Monday, it must be time for Ichiro Suzuki Quote Theater. This week's entry concerns the Mariners' makeup game in Cleveland, and Ichiro's clear desire not to be there....

We Congratulate The Spurs On Their Fourth Title
Well, it's certainly starting to look like we're all witnesses to Tim Duncan methodically steamrolling to his fourth NBA title. (That would tie him with Shaq, by the way.) What was most distressing about the Spurs' 103-92 Game 2 win over the Cavaliers last night was that it was over so early; the ou...
