According to Jemele Hill, Warren Sapp Deserves a Pounding for Keyshawn "Bitch" Comment
Here's an amusing little snag from Awful Announcing, featuring current "Inside the NFL" analyst Warren Sapp and budding home decorator/"NFL Live" analyst, Keyshawn Johnson. Sapp was responding to viewer questions during his "Ask Warren Anything" segment. One viewer was curious about Sapp's thoughts...
ESPN Knows Not Of This 'Hockey' You Speak Of
Look, I'm the first to admit that this here site isn't exactly Puck Daddy. But when we start an NHL feature, we tend to finish it, unlike a certain Worldwide Leader, apparently. I wouldn't even mention this except that ESPN, in abandoning its NHL rankings back on Oct. 23, has generated some quite am...
Roy Jones, Jr.'s Boxing Future Annulled by Calzaghe
Joe Calzaghe fluttered Roy Jones, Jr. with a million love taps and took a unanimous decision at MSG over the man who seemed to have married into the Pound-for-Pound-Champion clan in the late 90s as it seemed to become his surname. That divorce is final as Calzaghe, 36, recovered from a bit of a surp...
It's Not A World Series Celebration Without A Beatdown
Yes, yes! That's the spirit! After the jump, more photos from last night's Philly Seriesgasm. Philly loves lamp!...
Hockey Player Pulls Off Rare Hat Trick, Has His Stick Taken Away
Brace yourselves: This is not a hockey post. It's a college hockey post. And it's not even a Michigan State college hockey post—although I'm sure I'll find a way to work a few dozen of those in before the CCHA season is over—but when any athlete pulls off something that has happened maybe twice in t...
Sarah Palin Sentences Future Son To Lifetime Of Ass Kickings, Possible Ice Grooming
Sarah Palin recently did an interview for the upcoming issue of People Magazine in which she, among other things, refers to herself as "an intellectual," and lists some of the publications she reads on a regular basis. But later in the article, almost as an aside, she speculates on the name she woul...
You Do Not Want To Be In Jan Huokko's Fave Five
Yesterday we told you about The Night of a Thousand Dildos, in which Swedish hockey fans showered the ice with plastic sex devices at a second-tier, Pro Hockey League match between Leksand and AIK in Stockholm. The fusillade was unleashed in honor of former AIK and current Leksand player Jan Huokko,...
Jemele Hill Just Taking This Whole Lou Holtz-Hitler Backlash in Stride
Jemele Hill finally addressed the whole Lou Holtz/Hitler non-suspension story today on her personal blog and is predictably measured in her response. Hill, who was suspended last summer after she dropped the H-bomb in a pro-Pistons column for ESPN.com, says that she's received plenty of emails from ...
ESPN's Inconsistent Hitler Reference Policy Enables Lou Holtz to Get a Pass
After Dr. Lou uttered "Ya Know, Hitler was a good leader, too" on Friday night while talking about Michigan head coach Rich Rodriguez he seemed destined to sit at home in his EZ Chair for a week. It would've seemed perfectly reasonable for Holtz to get a few days off considering what happened to col...
TBS Baseball Coverage: EPIC FAIL
As millions of baseball enthusiasts tuned in last night hoping to see Game Six of the American League Championship Series, a surprise awaited them: They weren't greeted by Josh Beckett's steely gaze, instead they were met by Steve Harvey's toothy smile. Virtually anyone watching in the U.S. had to ...
Blue Is the Colour, Football Is the Game
We've had to wait since May's epic Champions League Final but the time has finally come for the Blues of Chelsea to take on the Red Devils of Manchester United. Holy crap, I'm all tingly. Obviously I'm a bit of a homer for Chelsea, which is why I won't be live blogging the contest. That and I'll be...
It's Always Nice To Win Something
The Bleacher Report's Sarah Horne has pulled together a list of the "Top 10 Sports Websites For Sports Trolls", where troll is defined as "a malicious malcontent who roams the internet and does drive-by comments, argues with no logic, and hurls insults out of jealousy or stupidity." Got it. Anyway, ...
Score Along At Home With The 82-0 Women's Hockey Game
So if you needed video evidence to believe that Slovakia beat Bulgaria 82-0 in a women's Winter Olympics qualification tournament recently — and I don't blame you if you do — here it is. Contrary to what you probably thought, the Bulgarians can actually skate. Although figuring out what those sti...
Who Are Hugh?
I'm relatively new to the Hugh. I'm meeting Mr. Johnson for the first time today and hoping he'll be gentle. Clearly, Cal has not recovered from the loss of DeSean "Obama" Jackson and finds themselves trailing Maryland early. In the annual battle of teams that traditionally suck the most, Temple and...
Dickie V Steals the Show at the Basketball HOF Inductions
Hakeem Olajuwon, Patrick Ewing (really Patrick? shorts? did you forget to pick up your dry-cleaning?) and Pat Riley were inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame last night, along with their classmate Dick Vitale. Dickie V was, as usual, the star of the show. His passionate speech reminded everyone...
Levi Johnston's Demon Hockey Seed Complicates Matters For GOP
John McCain's unpredictably odd but glamorous-looking choice for Vice President dazzled the media on Friday, but the case for Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin isn't looking as crafty a decision anymore. Most of the controversy stems from Palin's 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, tiny eskimo in the ovenand the ...

Pre-Draft Fantasy Update: Fred Taylor To Split Carries, Arrested [UPDATED]
It's stories like this that give the phrase "arrested at 4 a.m. outside a South Beach Club" a bad name. Miami Beach police charged Jacksonville Jaguars running back Fred Taylor with disorderly conduct yesterday outside the awesomely named "Club Cristal". Taylor wasn't jailed, but instead pinky-swore...
Utes and Young Manhood
Nice storyline from today's Michigan/Utah game: Paul Kruger, victim of a vicious stabbing earlier this year, is playing for the Utes. Utah's starting defensive end, along with his younger brother Dave and teammate Greg Newman, were attacked back in January by a group of unknown tough guys outside a ...
Aye Carumba! Chad Johnson Changes Last Name To Ocho Cinco
So Bengals wideout Chad Johnson has legally changed his name to "Chad Javon Ocho Cinco." Which I guess is only slightly better than "Chad Javon GoldenPalace.com." Chad expects to play in the Bengals' season opener, despite suffering a dislocated shoulder in the preseason and creating more needlework...
