Cooley Exposed More Than His Playbook
Chris Cooley, a friend of the bloggers as well as an accomplished blogger in his own right, had a nice day on the field today, but I don't think that's what people are going to remember come tomorrow. Earlier today Chris posted on his official blog about a fun section of the playbook that Jim Zorn ...

Lance Armstrong Is One Studly Guy, According To Lance Armstrong
The October Men's Journal has a lengthy profile on Lance Armstrong by Vanessa Grigoriadis, which eventually and rather terrifyingly delves into his sex life. Does America really need this during these times of uncertainty? Armstrong's past three girlfriends have been Kate Hudson, Tory Burch and Sher...

Would You Let This Woman Handle Your Stub?
I don't know how you feel about Jean Hsu (Jean who?) but that broad knows how to get into a tennis tournament. Somehow, she and a friend scored front row seats to an Andy Roddick match. Yeah, it's the national championship of tennis, but Andy Roddick? I guess they they just have a penchant to see ov...

The Daily Dicky Comes to Kentucky
In the form of Kentucky's outspoken wide receiver Dicky Lyons, Jr.. You'll recall that Lyons spent SEC Media Days discussing his dreams about Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford trying to steal away his fiancee. Now he's providing daily video updates as Kentucky prepares for their opening game agai...

Dicky Lyons Jr, Or A Vision In A Dream
AJ linked to the story of Dicky Lyons' dream in yesterday afternoon's Blogdome, but these words really deserve their own post. During SEC Media Day Kentucky wide receiver Dicky Lyons Jr. decided to liven things up by taking the media on an intimate tour of his subconscious. ...

The Anecdotal Evidence Does Not Look Good For Dick Bavetta
You just knew after those Tim Donaghy accusations this week, that people were gonna go back into any previous playoff game, scrutinize the calls, and document them. And lo, The World Of Isaac digs up the first of what should be several tinfoily arguments about how NBA referees swung the money line ...

Dick Vitale Is Quite Diligent
If you've seen "Hoop Dreams," or if you've seen one of his "motivational" speeches, you see a very different Dick Vitale than the one shilling for pizza or Duke. He's impassioned, sure, but he's also optimistic and, occasionally, legitimately uplifting. You get a sense that really does want to make ...

If You Don't Like The NFL Draft, You Can Suck It: Your NFL Draft Jamboroo
Big Daddy Drew's Thursday Afternoon NFL Dick Joke Jamboroo has been off since the end of the NFL season. But now, with Saturday's NFL draft looming, it returns, for one week only....

Roy Williams Will Scribble Near Your Naughty Bits
Should Roy Williams be enjoying himself this much, considering how completely he screwed up your office pool brackets? Well, at least he's not trying to make money off of the back of the young lady, like someone we know....

NCAA Takes Rigid Anti-Hot Girl Stance
Never have I eaten at a Hooters Restaurant, although I always found it amusing that in Toledo there was a Hooters across the street from a Catholic grade school. (Fun infallible fact: Growing up, Katie Holmes went to school there.) I guess when one hears the food isn't that great, and the only gimmi...

Meet The Future Mrs. Andy Roddick
This little lassie just got herself engaged to Andy Roddick (the one on the left.) Her name is Brooklyn Decker, a 20-year-old Sports Illustrated swimsuit exhibitionist, who's been dating Mr. Roddick for a little over a year now. Decker and the former Mr. Mandy Moore met in New York last year, where ...

Racial Controversy In College Basketball? Certainly Not!
CBS Sportsline columnist Mike Freeman has taken issue with all of the media attention afforded to North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough. So he wrote a column about it, and, as they say, hilarity ensued. It was a rather amusing rant by Freeman as he took aim at Dick Vitale, Sports Illustrated, and Bill ...

Man's Gotta Have A Code
It's a non-selective Sunday without a great deal of intriguing matchups (sorry those looking for an Avalanche-Stars breakdown), so my attention turns to the grand finale of what has been hailed by a great many pundits as the Greatest TV Show of All-Time. I'm not qualified to make that judgment, but ...

Gus Johnson Hits The Pause Button
This is from a while back, but I feel it buttresses (pause) my claim that Gus Johnson should be paired with Dick Vitale. Sure, they're on different networks and their collective screaming would surely destroy us all. But at least the next time Dickie V. starts a massive Dook fellatefest, there'll be...

Get Ready For The Glory And Majesty That Is The 'Name Of The Year' tournament
It's like waking up the morning before the NCAA Basketball Tournament and discovering that your favorite team has lost its eligibility (*cough* Hoosiers! *cough*). That was my reaction when I found out this morning that Brian Suksomwong has been booted from the prestigious Name of the Year competiti...
