Just Because Justin Gimelstob Doesn't Like Her, It Doesn't Mean He Can't Stare Intently
Here's a photo from Down The Line that shows Washington Kastles hard-on Justin Gimbelstob admiring Anna Kournikova's newly-inflated kaploogas at a recent World Team Tennis match in Washington D.C. Gimbelstob, as you may remember, not-so-famously said that Kournikova was a "bitch" and that he "despis...
Hopefully, There's More Where That Came From
Yes, it's a bit premature to post this picture of last year's champagne-blasting of NBC10 reporter Jade McCarthy getting, hmm, soaked by the joyous 2007 Philles after they stole the NL East, but with last night's 8-6 victory still buzzing in my head it seemed appropriate....
The Hopes Of A Frustrated Phillies Nation Are Nestled Under Joe Blanton's Second Chin
In case you need reminding, there's a huge (chuge?) baseball game here in the Northeastern part of the country this evening, as the New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies begin their three-game bloodfeast tonight in Shea for National League East supremacy. The Phillies will roll out newly acquired ...
Ya' Ever Play A Game Called "Texas Muffin Tumble" Lil' Lady?
Okay, so President G.W. Bush didn't exactly ask that question to softballer Jennie Finch, but the creepy sexual tension between these two just leaps off of this photo, does it not? But Bush wasn't in the White House Rose Garden just to give Finch the ol' shitkicker leer. He was there to formally sen...
Unfortunately, Being An Unrepentant Moron Is Not A Crime
Last week, there was a horrible story about two female St. Louis Cardinals' fans who were struck by a car while crossing the street on the way home from the Cards-Phillies series at Citizens Bank Park. One of the women died due to her injuries....
Best Of Luck To Ashley Force At The ESPY Awards Tonight
Even though they'll air this Sunday, the ESPY Awards are happening tonight in fantastic L.A. at the Nokia Theater, what should be the home of Baron Davis and the L.A. Clippers. All the glitz, glam, Valvano, and Timberlake any sports fan could ask for....
The Second Coming Of Josh Hamilton Begins Tonight
Here's Texas Rangers slugger and True American Christian Hero, Josh Hamilton in his pre-Jesus days when he got arrested in May 2005 after his bomb-tastic 24th birthday party in North Carolina....
The Mighty Wind Of The All-Star Game Festivities Comes Blowin' In
That's apple-bottomed "Today Show" correspondent Maria Menounous all decked out in her finest Taco Bell All-Star Legends and Celebrity Softball game get-up presumably ducking from the unholy zephyr that has taken hold of Billy Baldwin's comb-over. This event will be seen tonight on ESPN after the Ho...
Philadelphia's Excitement For Elton Brand Begets Resourceful Fashion Design Work
This Sixer fan, also swept up in Elton Brand fever, has no time to wait for local sporting goods outlet stores to get the newest prized jersey in stock, obviously....
Dara Torres Is Paying For Everyone's Sins
Granted, a 41-year-old woman breaking all sorts of swimming records is a red flag in today's performance-enhanced sports world, but is she being unfairly scrutinized?...
The Sports Fella Takes A Breather
Whether this was caused by his public display of annoyance with ESPN in May is uncertain, but it appears everybody's favorite Deadspin contributor, Bill Simmons, is taking some time off. The rest of the summer off, actually:...
Ana Ivanovic Makes Pretty Faces For The Camera
Tennis fans should be thrilled at how popular the sport is this week. First, it was those weird faceless people popping up at Wimbledon. Then it was the Williams sisters doing their Williams-sister thing. Then yesterday's "epic" Men's Final that showed the world that Spanish men in Capri pants are w...
This Is The *Ball That Will Grace The Hall
Dan Patrick's radio show this afternoon was very Bonds branded-ball heavy, grabbing baseball HOF president Jeff Idelson on for a few minutes to talk about how they finally wrestled the piece of history away from Marc Ecko. Lucky for them, the HOF was kind enough to send them a picture of the infamo...
Just Because They're In A Hockey Musical, It Doesn't Mean They Like To Puck Dudes
Say what you will about former Deadspin hockey wonk, Greg Wyshynski, but the man always seems to find some sort of tie-ins between hockey and homosexuality. This week, Puck Daddy delves into the motivation for "Hockey: The Musical!", which is having its big bawdy debut at the Toronto Fringe Festiva...
Cubs Go For the Sweep On the North Side
If the White Sox are going to come out of Wrigley with a win in this series, they'll need a good performance from Javier Vasquez. The Cubs counter with Ryan Dempster, who cannot possibly be this good. I'm going to call it a weekend, but I expect all of you DUANers to play nicely with each other. Whe...
A Little Music For the Late Night Crowd
Thanks to Awful Announcing for providing video of the worst rap in the history of car commercials (and that's a long list). I would have liked to have been in the room when the ad guys pitched this to Lou and Ozzie. I bet it sounded a lot more like the rap we're used to. Well, the vocabulary at leas...
Red Would Have Enjoyed That
The Celtics pulled out another game seven win meaning that LeBron James will not have a chance to defend Cleveland's Eastern Conference title. Paul Pierce was the man for Boston with 41 points on 13-23 from the field and some big free throws down the stretch to seal a 97-92 win....
Juuuuust a Bit Outside of Tolerability
Listen Mr. Uecker, if you don't want stalkers you probably shouldn't be walking around on road trips looking so fucking sexy. This picture, via the tremendous Big League Stew at Yahoo(!) (and several other places) shows the Brewers broadcaster enjoying one of the perks of life on the road, watching...
Sexy Olympian Has Sexy Performance
Now that Mother's Day is drawing to a close, we can get back to objectifying women. Just funnin'. I'm only interested in Rich Garces' tits. Or, failing that, Bobby Jenks'. Yesterday, noted attractive Olympian and tattoo enthusiast Nathasha Kai put on quite the show, scoring three goals in the U.S....
Chris Cooley Blogs, Fred Davis Sleeps
Reports out of Ashburn, Virginia (nothing good has ever followed that phrase) indicate that Fred Davis, one of Washington's second round picks, slept through one of his first practices as a Redskin. It isn't a good start for the rookie, especially with a Pro Bowl tight end starting in front of him....
