What Happened On The Night Josh Hamilton Had A Relapse, (Alleged) Bathroom Sex? One Eyewitness Account
We got an email this afternoon from a man who says he was at the same Dallas bar as Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton on the night Hamilton had a relapse and (allegedly) bathroom sex. Here's our source's version of events:...
Watch Maurice Evans Run Away From The Chance To Be On The Jeremy Lin Poster
Yes, Knicks insta-sensation Jeremy Lin shook John Wall with a nasty crossover last night, on his way to a highlight dunk against the Wizards. But the true measure of Linsanity comes from Washington's Maurice Evans, who sees No. 17 coming, takes a tentative slide step toward stopping him, then chan...
How Dare Bill Belichick Golf Pebble Beach Just Four Days After Losing The Super Bowl
Nah, not really. That would be an absurd argument to make, just about as absurd as decreeing Rob Gronkowski and Matt Light can't go party in Indianapolis. It's a slippery slope. How many days after a big loss is it acceptable to have fun? Is a sedate sport like golf more palatable than dancing? How ...
Rodney Harrison Is An Idiot. Let Rob Gronkowski Dance!
You may have seen this video of Pats tight end Rob Gronkowski and tackle Matt Light, fresh off of losing the Super Bowl, doing what I would be probably be doing if I just lost the biggest game of my life: getting shitfaced, dancing shirtless, and trying to get laid. But of course, Rodney Harrison do...
The Things ESPN's Complaints-Page Robots Expect You To Be Mad About (Besides Female Commentators)
Jezebel alerted us to this on Tuesday: ESPN's feedback page allows you to pick from a menu of presumably common complaints, sorted by sport. For both men's and women's college basketball, for instance, your choices include "Schedule," "Bands/Halftime Performance," "Technical - Audio/Video," and—unti...

YES Network Host Bob Lorenz Arrested On DUI Charges, Allegedly Found Slumped Over Steering Wheel At Stop Sign
Bob Lorenz isn't currently a star on the Yankees' broadcast arm, the YES Network. (He does lots of solid studio work.) And judging from what police allege happened early this morning in Westport, Connecticut, Lorenz won't become a star at YES anytime soon....
Source: Someone Tried To Sell A Dallas TV Station A Josh Hamilton Sex Tape From The Night Of His Relapse
Someone is shopping a videotape allegedly showing Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton, on the night of his recent relapse, having sex in the bathroom of Sherlock's, a Dallas bar. A local television station was offered the tape for $41,000, an employee at the station tells us. The station declined...
Nationals "Take Back The Park" From Phillies Fans, Give It Right Back To Them
Every time the Phillies visit Nationals Park, it feels like a home game for them. The stands are filled with fans who made the two-hour drive south to cheer for the Phillies, and it’s disheartening for Nats fans to be outnumbered in their own stadium. The same thing happens when the Yankees visit Ba...
Sarah Michelle Gellar Is Just Another Creepy, Overzealous Giants Fan
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was born and raised in New York City, and when she was young, her family had Giants season tickets. Last night, she and Eli Manning were both guests on The Late Show With David Letterman. But, as Gellar explained to Letterman, she didn't get to meet the two-time Super Bowl ...
The Giants Parade, Through The Lens Of A Guy Who Got Kicked Out Of It
I am a Giants fan, but I'm also fascinated by the human condition, and I happen to think nothing is more fascinating than a million people brought together by nothing more than a football team and the rare socially acceptable opportunity to get drunk before breakfast. It was with this in mind that I...
Wes Welker Mocked With Pile Of Butterfinger Candy Bars In Boston Town Square
It was a marketing trick by an online pawnshop, and not any sort of additional commentary from Gisele. [BostInno; photo via Megan Marrs]...
This Is Why JaVale McGee Is The Best Thing In The NBA
This is from last night's Raptors-Wizards game. Please keep an eye on JaVale McGee. He's the fellow who first goes backward between the legs (impressive), then throws up the ball within an area code of the hoop (less impressive), then goes tearing down the court while the Wiz still have possession...
Oklahoma's Steven Pledger Prematurely Celebrated His Game-Tying Buzzer-Beater That Didn't Go In
It can't feel good to lose, especially in front of an empty arena. But it takes a certain amount of hubris—beyond the amount we're comfortable with, at least—to celebrate a shot before it goes in, especially if that shot wouldn't even win you the game. Then it doesn't go in, and all the sympathy ...
Report: Steelers Hire Todd Haley As New Offensive Coordinator
I could tell you that Haley ran a super-successful version of a pass-heavy offense like Pittsburgh's under Ken Whisenhunt (a former Steeler OC) in Arizona, but it's much easier to laugh at him for stuff like this. [ESPN]...
We Now Have The Will Ferrell Old Milwaukee Super Bowl Ad In HD, Along With More Info About It
This bizarre TV spot for Old Milwaukee beer starring Will Ferrell aired in exactly one TV market last night during the Super Bowl's local ad block at the end of the first half. That market is North Platte, Nebraska, and it's the second-smallest TV market in the country, ranking 209th out of 210. ...
Report: Allen Iverson In Talks To Play In Puerto Rico
The Puerto Rican league is basically trying to sell the 36-year-old Iverson an opportunity to prove himself to teams in the NBA. It's not like he's already tried to do this or anything. [Yahoo!]...
The Mariners Probably Just Pulled Off The Best Signing Of The Offseason
Stand down, Edwin-Jackson-to-the-Nats. Relax, Broxton-to-the-Royals and Madson-to-the-Reds. We have a new steal in an offseason filled with ridiculous splurges (C.J.-Wilson-to-the-Angels, Pujols-to-the-Angels, Reyes-to-the-Marlins, Heath-Bell-to-the-Marlins) and not too many bargains. The Seattle Ma...
Eli Manning: Stop Wearing T-Shirts Over Your Shoulder Pads
I'm really happy for Eli Manning and all, especially since he just beat America's Most Dominant Sports City for the second time and sent Shank into his usual round of rectal self-examination. But someone needs to explain to this man that he'll never stop being treated like a 12-year-old from a Sunny...
Lakers Coach Mike Brown Earns One-Game Supension, $25k Fine For Saturday Outburst
CSN Philly is reporting Lakers head coach Mike Brown will miss tonight's game against the 76ers while sitting out a league-issued one-game suspension for the above incident in which Brown made contact with an official during the Lakers' loss in Utah....
