Police Officer Suspended For Dunking His Head In A Bucket Of Urine At A Browns Game
Is your pride worth $450? That's how much one Browns fan earned from his friends for sticking his head into a bucket of human piss, before Cleveland's Week 6 game last month.

How Anderson Varejao Quietly Lit Up The Nets Last Night
Anderson Varejao scored 35 points and grabbed 18 rebounds last night in a loss to the Nets.

Brandon Weeden Is Too Old To Have High School Stats On A Scouting Site
Brandon Weeden is older than the average rookie due to a minor-league baseball stint before a return to football.
