When I eventually make the NBA — What? I have great court vision! — and I'm making millions of dollars off my 1.6 assists-per-game and great locker-room presence, please remind me NOT to buy a house in or around the Chicago, Illinois area. This is getting ridiculous....

Can't Sleep, Clown Will Eat Us

NFL Season Preview: Baltimore Ravens
Believe it or not, folks, the NFL season is much closer than you can possibly imagine. So close, in fact, that, if we're going to fit in every NFL team preview by the start of the season, running one every weekday, we have to start this week. So there you have it....
The Greatest Camp Of All Time, On Sale
It's not very often you can buy a legitimate piece of history via eBay. But the Muhammad Ali "auction" page that just went up there, whether you could be a serious buyer or not (and trust us, you can't), is worth reading just for the jaw-dropping import of it....
Remembering Skip Prosser
The college basketball world is still coming to terms with the death of Wake Forest coach Skip Prosser yesterday. Prosser was 56 years old and had been jogging on campus. His death shocked many, and the Web features many excellent tributes to him....
Maybe You Don't Want Bonds' Home Run Ball
Imagine, hypothetically, that you were the one to catch Barry Bonds' 756th home run ball. It's not gonna be worth as much as it would have been a few years ago — you see, Barry Bonds has done a shitload of steroids, and many don't like that — but it still might, say, pay for a semester of college. (...

Time To Agonize Over Your Fantasy Team Name
We are officially ready to start thinking about fantasy football, we think. As always, we're in too many leagues for us to keep track of, particularly because we consistently make the mistake of naming all our teams the same thing: Mattoon Green Wave.

Ikea Loveseats Are Bulky And Difficult To Move
I was perusing Sports by Brooks late last night, as is my wont, and came across this item: "The NEW YORK TIMES reports EA Sports will provide new President Peter Moore with "relocation-related expenses" from Redmond, Washington, to Redwood City, California. The move will cost the company $330,000. M...
The End Of July Ain't What It Used To Be
As much as we might try, we can't muster up much enthusiasm for the trading deadline this year, which is in week. No matter scenarios they give us, we just don't believe anyone too huge will end up switching teams. The days of the Mark McGwire, Mike Piazza trades seem over. (Not that we ever conside...
Jeff Pearlman, On His Subject Barry Bonds
Barry Bonds remains just two homers away from Hank Aaron's record, and in the wake of this historic and confounding achievement, we felt we should talk to a guy who knows the life of Bonds better than anyone else in the media: Jeff Pearlman, Bonds' biographer in Love Me, Hate Me. We've interviewed...
