Sonya Curry Back On American Radars
I don't understand the Sonya Curry phenomenon. (Actually, I didn't even know there was one, but apparently it's tearing up the charts.) The mother of Davidson sharpshooter Stephen Curry is an attractive 40-something teacher and a former athlete herself, but does that really make her any more interes...
The Moonstruck, Rather Wacky Email From Jimmy Patsos To Kornheiser And Wilbon
Being a major college basketball coach is like taking a daily bath in crock pot set at 450; you live in your basketball world 24/7, eating and breathing the insanity until stuff like what you're about to read below slowly starts making sense. Following the jump is a rather remarkable letter from Loy...
David Frost Wins Sexual Exploitation Trial With Class And Dignity
Most folks, after they narrowly avoid conviction on charges of sexual exploitation of minors, tend to lay low for awhile, graciously enjoying their freedom while the storm of publicity and bad feelings is given time to blow over. But not Canadian junior hockey guru David Frost. Nope. He's using his ...
Enjoy The Whimsical Coaching Stylings Of Jimmy Patsos
In our latest edition of Coaching Tactics For The Comically Insane, we present Loyola. Md. coach Jimmy Patsos, who had a foolproof way to defend Davidson's Stephen Curry on Tuesday. Patsos rolled out the triangle-and-two, and with devastating effect: Curry was held scoreless. One problem, though. Pa...
Someone Please Explain "Overtime" To The Arizona Wildcats
People can't seem to get over the fact that Donovan McNabb was unclear on the concept of tying (he's a professional football player!), but we guess Arizona's basketball team didn't get the memo either. See, if two teams have the same score when that last buzzer goes off, the game continues with an e...
David Wright's Dreaminess Almost Causes Cougar Riot
Page Six is always searching for some way to put Mets' third baseman David Wright in the column and today has finally found a suitable angle to satisfy its gossip-hungry readership: an eyewitness account of Wright almost getting trampled by amorous old ladies. During his annual "Do The Wright Thing"...
David Stern Invites Seattle to Watch Their Ex-Girlfriend With New Boyfriend
On the weekend before the NBA finally returns to action after its six-week sabbatical after the NBA Finals, we must take one more moment to remember one city that will not be joining the rest of us in our journey this season as Oklahoma City tries to pretend they can support both an NBA franchise an...
Kimbo Slice Lives An American Fantasy And Punches David Blaine In The Stomach
I admit: Like a true backwoods dope, I was initially mystified by David Blaine's early "magic" specials. Especially that time he turned a hobo's coffee into coins or the one where he levitated from the sidewalk. Like Michael Jackson and Fiona Apple, I believed David Blaine's magic was real, man. A f...
Big Papi's Bed Will End Homelessness, Achieve Peace In The Middle East
I have always dreamed of sleeping in Big Papi's bed, but until now I never thought that it could become a reality. Now it's here; the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own Big Papi's bed. I don't know for sure, but I imagine that sleeping there would be like nestling into a warm, comforting hug by t...
David Foster Wallace, The St. Louis Rams And You
Before we get started, I'd like to say something about David Foster Wallace. David Foster Wallace, Illinois' own, is the best writer I've ever read who I found completely unreadable. I don't mean his non-fiction stuff that had the benefit of editors who, strangely, had a desire for people who read ...
David Foster Wallace: Sports Writer
Like many aspiring professional typists, I was curious about David Foster Wallace and admired him for his prodigious writing talent, even though I found a huge portion of his writing indecipherable. (I've read the first 22 pages of "Infinite Jest" many, many times, but never past that point. ) Frida...
David Hasselhoff Is a Crazy, Wild Arizona Football Fan
Who likes hanging out with his daughter in the student section. With a camera. Really, he does. Allegedly this is because he has at least one daughter attending Arizona. Which makes complete sense. Because everyone who has ever been to college wants their dad or mom to bring a handheld video camera...
Jason Kidd Calls Out NBA "Double Standard" For Failure to Speak on Spain Photos
The NBA's love affair with China—and vice-versa—has been well chronicled by the national media. But in the wake of the Spanish team posing with slant-eyes or slit-eyes (I'm still not sure why there are two names for this), NBA players are starting to take note that the NBA is much quicker to penali...
Contreras Injury a Blow To Chicago
It was the Sox Bowl Part II as the Red ones took on the White ones. And you know what happens when you put Red Sox in the mix with White Sox (besides all your shit turning pink). You get some pretty good baseball. Big Papi busted his slump with a three-rub double off the wall in Boston's 6-2 win ove...
The New York Mets Cannot Be Stopped By Man Nor Beast
One month ago, the Mets were 6 1/2 games out of first, had just fired their manager, and were the brunt of jokes by Yankees fans. Yankees fans were mocking them. Well, who's laughing now? David Wright hit a two-run homer in the ninth to tie it, and New York went on to a 10-8 win at Cincinnati to ext...

The Post In Which We Are Required To Examine David Beckham's Man-Parts
Only in San Francisco will you find a 100-foot poster of David Beckham in his underpants: A new, proud landmark here to rival the Golden Gate Bridge, the Transamerica Pyramid and Coit Tower. But unlike the latter two, which are clearly all natural, certain portions of Beckham's gigantic likeness ma...
Media Approval Ratings: David Aldridge
It seems like an extremely long time ago that David Aldridge was on ESPN. He almost seems the exact opposite of what the network wants out of its NBA coverage....
David Ortiz Is Keeping Unusual Company
David Ortiz is still recovering from his injury — he won't be back for a while, but at least the cast is off — so he's keeping busy the only way he knows how: By hanging out with the crazyman that is James Woods....
Tim Donaghy's Sense Of The Dramatic
From the minute the general public learned the name Tim Donaghy, everyone has been waiting for a day like yesterday. The point of Tim Donaghy's infamy is not his gambling; it's all about whether or not he could provide any insight into the back rooms of an NBA that has always seemed a little shady....
