Steve Nash Politely Reminds You He's The MVP (In A Canadian Way)

Western Conference Pants Party: Mavs Vs. Suns
We miss the defense-less days when every game between these two would have totalled nearly 300 points, but that's OK: This'll still work just fine....

One Awfully Strange Way Of Celebrating
We don't know how we missed this the other evening, but apparently, with seconds left and the Mavericks all set to celebrate, coach Avery Johnson ran down the bench to make a substitution. In all his excitement and hurry, he appears to have pulled a Reggie Evans on Josh Howard....

Ghosts Of Web Site Past
We don't know why, but we guess we kind of thought that Web sites representing companies that were obviously proven fraudulent and felonius would, as a matter of courtesy, either disgorge themselves from the Interweb, or, at the very least, stop updating....

Seminoles Institute New "Anti-Cocaine" Policy
Some bad news for Jon Kreft, that Florida State recruit who was arrested for having cocaine in his ass (that's a crime??!!): The Seminoles have rescinded their scholarship offer. He clearly has failed to met the exemplary moral standards expected of the students of Florida State University....

It's Western Conference March Madness
We know a few people, Midwesterners, mostly, sometimes with their own little biases, who claim to love college basketball but are left cold by the NBA. We don't understand this, but even they can't deny the beauty of tonight: Two games, both elimination, winners play each other in the conference fin...

Obviously, David Wells — as evidenced by his appearance on the waiver wire in just about every fantasy league we're in — is much more useful as a quote machine these days than as an actual baseball player. And he's never more amusing than when he's being edited to suit the taste of the delicate ne...

I Believe Dirk and David Hasselhoff Would Approve
I feel like I've seen enough "Lazy Sunday" parodies to last me for the rest of my life. I appreciated the original SNL bit as much as anyone, but at some point, it turned into nothing more than a license for young white people to make their own rap videos. Rarely will any good come from that....
