A.J., Call Your Mother.
Bad news, unapproved commenters: this is the last post of the night from us. DUAN is how you say it?...

Just Like A Kids' Book Out There
The Minneapolis Star Tribune is already pimping a book about "American institution" Brett Favre's first season in Minnesota, "the most memorable in the history of the franchise." This seems presumptuous. More breathless prose after the jump. Plus, an important announcement....

Looking For Dick
This is what it means to be a Bills fan: You spend your December days hunched over a team photo like some Bletchley Park code cracker, looking for proof that your recently shitcanned coach has been photoshopped into oblivion....

Beware The Cock-Loitering Cheetah Backlash And A Parnevik Scorned
There's a little story in the New York Observer today to which I contributed numerous quotes of utter nonsense which has made many people cringedue to the the author's supposed misguided misogyny....

BYU-Utah: A "Burning Cauldron Of Loathing"
You recall the anti-Utah slam poem delivered by BYU quarterback Max Hall on Saturday. Now comes this photo of Jamie Whittingham, wife of Utah coach Kyle Whittingham, snapped just moments before she took a BYU fan's elbow to the grill....

Pats-Saints: Your Open Thread
Sean Payton compared Bill Belichick's Patriots to Microsoft in a nice way. Belichick talked wistfully about deep-sea fishing with Payton. At some point tonight, the two men will hop off the tandem bike and coach a very important football game....

The Nets And You, You Big Loser
So, Lawrence Frank, fired by New Jersey. Is sparing a coach the notoriety of completing a historic losing streak doing him a favor, or just rubbing salt in the wound?...

I Don't Think Coach Bowden Got The Message
It's only the beginning of the third quarter and Florida is already thrashing Florida State 30-0. This will only end in tears. I'm just not sure if it will be Tim Tebow or Bobby Bowden producing said tears. Maybe both....

NFL Network Apologizes For Terrible Motherf@*^ing Mistake
The NFL Network takes you inside the game like no other broadcast entity can. Who else could get a shot of Josh McDaniels swearing at offensive lineman on the sideline, then broadcast it live and completely unedited? Absolutely no one....

Tiger Woods Rumored To Be Getting His Becky On, Internet Declares.
The National Enquirer has been tailing a 34-year-old NYC woman whom they claim is having a dirty affair with Eldrick. They even have pictures of her in Australia checking into the same hotel as him. Brilliant MediaTakeout commenters respond accordingly....

The Haughty Drunken Excess That Is Harvard-Yale In Pictures
Each year during "The Game" (which most tailgaters do not even pay attention to) the blue bloods invade the yard and show off their finest Ivy League elbow-bending techniques. It's like a beer-sopped L.L. Bean catalog come to life....

And Down Go Some More Yalies
This unfortunate individual was given the perp-walk treatment during the snooty drunkfest known as Yale/Harvard this past Saturday. I'm sure there are far more entertaining photos (like this!) available from this event, so please send them along....

In Which We Try To Work Up Excitement Over The MLS Cup
Do you, dear readers, care about tonight's championship showdown between the LA Galaxy and Real Salt Lake? Perhaps a better question is, did you even know this was tonight?...

Yeah, I'm Sure It Probably Feels Like This For Knicks Fans
If it's not bad enough just to be a Knicks fan, the graphics department at YES Network are taking potshots at them. Seeing this probably caused Stephon Marbury to snap out of his delusional state. Just for a second, though....

Chuck Klosterman: American Polymath Napkin
Chuck Klosterman plugs his Dinosaur book by doing an interview with the good people at American Polymath blog. Okay, truth be told, this interview gave me a reason to commission another napkin caricature from Craggs....

The Derek-Jeter-Hits-The-Beach-With-A-Starlet Photos Will Make You Miserable
Our Captain is off on his annual off-season jaunt to a humid location with a young, bikini-clad actress-person whom he will most likely never settle down with and, unfortunately for him, there was a slimy photog in the palm tree....

Whitlock: Mangino's Oozing Pumpkin The Root Of All His Coaching Woes
Jason Whitlock offers his funky-fresh perspective on the absurd Mark Mangino poking situation by positing that the beleaguered coach's problems could have all been avoided had he not weighed "450 to 500 pounds." Fat-on-fat crime ensues....
