Rock (Expletive) Jayhawk
Well, when your supposedly legendary franchise has started the season 2-3, you just lost at home to a team from the WAC and your head coach boss thinks he's actually fooling anyone with that toupee ... sometimes all that will leave you in a foul mood....
Solich Party Photos!
In case you were wondering if Ohio coach Frank Solich's drunk driving arrest incident was an entirely isolated incident, here's some photos of the coach chilling at an Ohio bar with some students, posing, having some fun. Anyone, of course, should feel free to go out and have some drinks. But som...
Bruce Weber's Lawn Exploits
Well, we won our bet and we have made our post. It occurs to us that if Illinois can win over Xavier on Saturday, the Illini will likely be in the top 10, and we are less than convinced they belong in the top 10. But that's all technical talk; you can get that from Andy Katz, along with a consider...
The Rematch That Isn't, Not Really
The college basketball season really gets going tonight, as our beloved Big Ten takes its ritualistic beating in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, one of the few things ESPN does every year that makes us smile. And the centerpiece game is, of course, the "rematch" of last year's national championship gam...
Sleepless In Athens, Ohio
You wake up to the light in your eyes. Blinking, you try to adjust. The man with the light is very authoritative, and more than a little pissed. You must have been asleep for a while. Jesus, what time is it?...
Excuse Our Excretory Humor
OK, we're going entirely from memory here, since we haven't been able to find anything else about the exchange on the Web, but that's fine, we'd like to take credit for seeing it anyway. It will reveal just how puerile we really are....
University Of Miami: Complete Assheads
In one of the more ridiculous travesties of justice we can possibly think of happening on a college campus — save for maybe Nick Lachey living with Matt Leinart — the University of Miami has kicked blogger Kyle Munzenrieder out of campus housing after he posted a two-year-old rap song from Miami f...
Our Own, Demented Version Of "Switched At Birth"
Because in a month we're going to be the only people who remember the show, we feel obliged to point out — per a reader's excellent, perceptive eye — that ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas and Will Arnett's ridiculously funny "Gob" from "Arrested Development" look so much like each other t...
Athlete Run-Ins: Another Duke Miracle
Today's first athlete run-in story is one we're sure most of you will enjoy. Why? Because it makes fun of a Duke guy! Everybody loves those!...
Student Athletes Rule!
From the Angry College Professors department comes an email forwarded to us from the land of the USC Trojans. Fullback Mike Brittingham, a former walk-on with only one catch this year (though, assuredly, a lot of blocks), apparently missed a conference with one of his professors in October because...
Angry Man In A Funny Shirt
We know it's almost holiday time because there's an inexplicable Monday afternoon college basketball game. We're going to try to tear ourselves away from CNN's monthly let's pretend we're not rooting for a live plane crash because it would be outstanding television to watch Michigan State play Cha...
Apology Fashion
Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer — still lamenting the poo Alabama took against Auburn on Saturday, we're sure — points us in the direction of Jemere Hendrix, a University of Tennessee basketball player who was kicked out of school in October for being busted for marijuana possession. That seems like a...
Athlete Run-Ins: Matt Leinart's Surprise
These athlete stories, we have to say, they're really getting pretty fun, aren't they? After this morning's Andy Roddick story, we present a story about USC quarterback and co-ed depantser Matt Leinart ... AS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE. From Los Angeles' John Bishop:...
I - L - L !!!!!!!
We know some of those early-season tournaments have been going on all week, but as far as we're concerned, the college basketball season actually starts tonight: Our beloved, "Paint The Hall Orange" Illinois Fighting Illini tip off against the South Dakota State Jackrabbits — because nothing says...
Closing The Dorm Room Door
Well, we've been observing with much amusement — and a little fear — the ongoing aftermath of SeventhFloorGate (not the catchiest name, we admit). As nicely wrapped up by Sports Media Watch, it appears to be a big moral issue for Pat Forde and ESPN.com, and that's about it. No one else seems to be...
Sorry, Man: Gays Like Football Too
Via Towleroad comes this fun little story from the Northwestern football program. Apparently, there's a muchly gay-friendly Web site devoted to Wildcats freshman wide receiver Ross Lane called, understandably, The Ross Lane Fan Club. The site tackles all things Northwestern sporty but has a partic...
Rock Me Like An Extreme Weather Pattern
Well, it might be easy for Larry Coker and his Miami crew to hide from us, but it's not as easy for them to hide from ESPN. (For now.) Now that the moralists at the worldwide leader (and the AP) have picked up our bit about the Miami football team's rather intense rap, all kinds of heck is breakin...
The Ongoing Popularity Of "The U"'s Rap
For anyone who might have doubted the authenticity of our frightening Miami gangbang rap song post yesterday, Hurricanes wide receiver Sinorice Moss confirmed it for us today in his ESPN chat....
The Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl Shuffle
Ah, the University of Miami, the only school where they wear thongs as graduation tassles. Gotta love 'em. They're like our own little 2 Live Crew concert, every Saturday....
An Interview With The "Lee Corso Is A Penis" Guy
Remember that guy who held up that "Lee Corso Is A Penis" sign behind the ESPN ranter a few weeks ago? Rammer Jammer Yellow Hammer has an interview with the guy. Fittingly, the guy wouldn't give this last name because, of course, he wants to work for ESPN....
