McDonald's Bag 1, Denver Broncos 0
You've scored some well-earned vacation time, and you're booked for a week or two at the finest resort you can find. Time to check in, unpack, and ... order room service? A larger TV? Five-diamond hookers? Well, no; if you're Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall, it's time for a McDonald's ...
Things That Draw In Denver When Attendance Is Dead
As you may or may not know (probably the latter) the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche aren't doing so well from a financial standpoint. Hell, the Broncos have already begun downsizing. For some reason the city of Denver isn't stuffing enough cash into the coffers of their pro franchises. Of cou...
Woody Allen Explains How Baseball Gloves Are Made
If you enjoy hearing kids repeat the word "leather" over and over (vaguely creepy), seeing Jonathan Winters in a Reds' uniform (like Frank TV, only funny), or listen to Woody Allen explain how to play second base, then you'll enjoy this old episode of Hot Dog; a Saturday morning kids' show from the ...
Will Cuban Ban The Almighty ESPN?
The Dallas Mavericks have a huge game tonight with the Los Angeles Lakers, and, whether Mark Cuban lets any bloggers in or not, we'll certainly be reading all about it on about 1,000 blogs. (OK, maybe 100.) Throwing down his gauntlet, Henry Abbott from ESPN's True Hoop is making the trip. He seems t...

Believe In The Flying Bracketti Monster
Everyone has their Sharpie and blank bracket, right? Okay, good. I entrust you also have your empty NIT and CBI — yeah the new 16-team tournament — brackets as well. You'll get to squiggle the teams into those little lines soon enough....
Never Challenge Blake Hoffarber To A Game Of H.O.R.S.E.
When they were handing out natural disasters in the NCAA conference tournaments, the SEC came up with tornadoes. The Big Ten ended up with lightning striking twice. (The MAC? Perpetual darkness.) Minnesota's Blake Hoffarber's last-second desperation jumper to beat Indiana 59-58 was brain-exploding u...

Honda Prelude Not Built With Shaq In Mind
If you're considering giving a lift to an NBA center and concerned that your two-door coup might be a smidgen smallish, take heart from this story from a guy and his girlfriend who were able to transport Shaq to a restaurant in Scottsdale....
After Eight OTs, You Can Just Share The Title
The Division 1 Michigan state high school championship hockey game yesterday between Marquette and Orchard Lake St. Mary's ran a little long. About eight overtimes, 109 minutes of play long. It was probably seven overtimes too many, because they then packed it in and declared both teams co-champions...
Gus Johnson Hits The Pause Button
This is from a while back, but I feel it buttresses (pause) my claim that Gus Johnson should be paired with Dick Vitale. Sure, they're on different networks and their collective screaming would surely destroy us all. But at least the next time Dickie V. starts a massive Dook fellatefest, there'll be...
Barry Bonds Is Not A Good Influence On Terrell Owens
Here's video from TMZ of Barry Bonds and Terrell Owens partying it up in Vegas. I'm not sure what the green liquid is — TMZ says it's absinthe — but it's clear that Owens is not a fan. This is exactly how I imagined a night out with Bonds would go. "Here, drink this! Don't worry about what's in it; ...
Bill Walton, Will Ferrell Are Superbad
Here's Will Ferrell playing Bill Walton in a game of horse ... a sentence I never thought I'd ever type. As Dogs That Chase Cars says, Ferrell actually shoots the rock pretty damn well. And Walton looks at home in that uniform, doesn't he? (Sarcasm: The anti-drug)....
The Super Bowl Commercial They Wouldn't Let You See
Can't decide if this is great or merely interesting, but my dog liked it a lot. Here's a Bud Light commercial that was supposed to have been shown during the Super Bowl, but was banned by the FCC. Found this over at BostonSportz. It's new to me, anyway....
Tampa Bay Manager Knows Not Of This Barry Bonds You Speak
Your dream of seeing Barry Bonds play in a lopsided pirate ship has been dashed once again. Despite rumors to the contrary, Tampa Bay Devil Rays executive vice president Andrew Friedman said that the team is not pursuing him. Said manager Joe Maddon: "It was a minor discussion, it was thrown out the...
Barry Bonds May Be Leaving Our Shores
According to Babel Fish, this is the Japanese word for steroids: ステロイド. Wouldn't it be somewhat hilarious if some jokester printed that on Barry Bonds' jersey this year? Because that's where Bonds is likely headed, according to his agent. Jeff Boras, who has been shopping around his client in spring...
