Scoop Jackson Would Like To Get Real With You For A Minute
Buried at the bottom of Page 2 today is a clarification from columnist Scoop Jackson, who caused a veritable shitstorm thanks to his B.J. Upton column, when he haphazardly implied that Upton's laziness was a reason for young African-Americans to look up to him. Not really what he meant, of course, b...
Kellen Winslow: Please Stop Asking About My Junk
Good news, Browns fans. Your cantankerously talented tight end Kellen Winslow is no longer suffering from a mysterious ailment that may or may not be related to his testicular area.

College Football Preview: Colt McCoy and Chase Daniel Duel for Rights to All The Oil in Texas (And the Heisman)
Back when I wrote that I couldn’t wait to watch the BYU-TCU game, I meant it. Completely. But what I forgot was that I’d be on the road in a hotel room. I don’t know why it is but hotels have the most erratic cable channel selections known to man. If you’re anything like me you’ve found yourself ly...
Well, That Didn't Take Very Long
Oh the joys of Cafe Press.

Scoop Jackson's Column Continues to Offend; Jason Whitlock Demands Swift Editorial Execution
Scoop Jackson has once again sparked the ire of, oh, lots of people with this latest ESPN2 column about the Tampa Bay Rays’ B.J. Upton.

Overexcited Phils Fan Creates Grammatically Challenged Rally Cry
Well, this is a shame. And typical. But Philadelphia Phillies fans have never been known for their, oh, you know. What's the word? Smarts. (Present company included, obviously.) But this is just so endearingly dopey, I'm hopeful it does catch on. Via The 700 Level (which is celebrating in high style...

Oh Happy Day
Last February, I received an email from a friend-of-a-friend of the publisher at Philadelphia magazine who wanted to know if The Daily Examiner, the Philly mag blog I was writing for at the time, would be interested in having weekly interviews with Shane Victorino throughout spring training. The guy...
I Don't Believe What I Just Saw...
1988 was a year I didn't watch as much sports as I used to because I discovered Headbanger's Ball and had hair that looked like this, but I did watch the one-legged walk-off game by Kirk Gibson. (Most likely while ironing a Megadeth back patch to my jean jacket. Who got all the chicks?) As you may k...

Kellen Winslow's mysterious "undisclosed illness" which has been rumored to be swollen balls according to Pro Football Talk, might still keep him out of this week's action against the Washington Redskins.

Here we ...

Support The Team While Thwarting Criminals With Toxic Chemicals
If there's one thing I hate, it's getting dressed up in my favorite NFL dress shirt for a night on the town, and then getting jumped by hooligans. If only there were a place I could shop where they would take care of both my NFL dress shirt and self defense needs. Well, now there is! Just listen to ...

Terrell Owens Was Very Yellow On Monday
It's Tuesday, and Black Sports Online is still asking the musical question: T.O., WTF are you wearing??? How do you lose to the Cardinals and then show up in the locker room on Monday looking like this? You've just blown any chance you may have had with Jessica Simpson. Was T.O. striving for the elu...
Hey, Wait A Minute, Didn't Braylon Edwards Go To Michigan?
Here's Cleveland wide receiver Braylon Edwards proudly representing the school logo ... unfortunately though, it's the wrong school.
