It's not clear why this guy wore his anti-LeBron shirt to a 76ers-Bulls game in Chicago, but he really wanted to make sure WGN viewers got to see it for themselves. Maybe it's the only green article of clothing he owns, and he didn't want any strangers pinching him. [WGN]...

Kentucky Fan Creates Living Monument To Wildcats' Anthony Davis
The mystery of life: Using only a razor, this man has created an homage to that which Davis could destroy with the very same razor.

Phony Penn State Baseball Star And Potential Trustee Made An Absurd Campaign Video
There he is: Anthony Lubrano. So majestic, so clean-shaven. So statuesque, presiding over the sports complex that bears his name.
