We Have To Ask ...
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • So, just to recap, it's The Morning Quickie at 9 a.m.; Fantasy Focus at 10; and Women's College Hoops with Charlie Creme at 11.

Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • Noon. NBA with Chris Sheridan: Your beat has kept you indoors for quite some time, eh pasty-boy?

Oh, We've Hit The Big Time Now
We've slipped on "Cold Pizza" and "Quite Frankly With Stephen A. Smith", but boy, today did we ever hit the jackpot: "ESPN Hollywood." We just received this email:...

Mel Kiper Jr.'s Thick "Fingers"

They're Not Booing. They're Yelling "Stuuuu!"
We know this is our job and everything, but we'll admit, we, uh, weren't watching Stuart Scott's little New Years Eve "spectacular" in Times Square over the weekend. Sorry. We've let you down....

"Cold Pizza" Now Seen Even Less
As we watched yet another A-list huge Hollywood star attempt to withstand the blistering interrogation of ESPN2's "Cold Pizza" this morning — in this case, Nick Swardson, "star" of Grandma's Boy — we paused to reflect on "Cold Pizza"'s move yesterday to 10 a.m. The ESPN morning show was moved bac...

We Have To Ask ...
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • Noon.

Scoop Jackson's Look Back
True Hoop takes on something that we've been kind of eager to sink our teeth into anyway this morning: Scoop Jackson's "Year In Review" column on ESPN Page 2. Jackson has always confused us a bit; his position as Black Columnist at ESPN has, in our opinion, allowed him to get away with continued s...

We Have To Ask ...
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • Noon. Men's BB with Chris Dortch: The Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook, how quaint.

We Have To Ask ...
Suggested questions for today's ESPN SportsNation chatters ... • 10 a.m. Fantasy Football Focus: The current was running too swiftly to allow the river to be searched.

The Kids, They Love Woody Paige
Did you know that ESPN dog food eater Woody Paige is a huge hit with the college kids? Did you know that he's the sensation that's sweeping the nation? Did you know that he can't walk anywhere on the streets of New York City without being mobbed by adoring fans? You didn't know that? Really? Well,...

Know Your Marginal Sports Hosts ...
Yes, we saw Stephen A. Smith on "The Late Show With David Letterman" last night, and we have only one question: If hosting a low-rated talk show is enough to get you onto Letterman, then how come we haven't seen Tony Danza there more often? How about Geraldo?...

It's The End Of The Boom Run, And We Don't Feel Fine
As we've written before, though not here, we love the Great Outdoor Games on ESPN: It's pretty much the highlight of baseball's All-Star Weekend for us, definitely more fun than the game. We can never decide which we enjoy more: The fierce rivalry between the Hoeschler sisters in women's log rolli...
