We've Found The Dirtiest HS Basketball Players In America, And They're Two Chunky White Guys
This has apparently been making the rounds (to the point where the local news did a story on the "viral video"), but it's new to us, and it's fantastic. It shows a high school game from Washington State, and a series of (uncalled) flagrant fouls at the hands of two Connell High School players who ...

Rams Fire Steve Spagnuolo And GM Billy Devaney
The Rams went 2-14 this year, and not even a valiant charge by Kellen Clemens yesterday could save the bosses. Spags was 10-38 in his three years in charge. He will, however, always have precious memories of that time they almost stumbled their way into the playoffs last year....

About That Whole "Good Will Toward Men" Thing
It's Christmas Eve, but there was no peace on Earth in (apparently) heathen Hawai'i, as the first half of the Sheraton Hawai'i Bowl got ugly with a brief bit of violence after Southern Miss scored a touchdown to take a lead into the locker room. [ESPN]...

Nevada Has Sold 10 Tickets For Its Bowl Game
Hawaii is a long way away from everything, true. And the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl doesn't really care, because Nevada is on the hook for the entire allotment anyway. (It was 5,600 when the Wolf Pack played this game in 2009.) Sounds like a lot of military personnel are going to get to watch some free fo...

Former Dolphin Says Nick Saban Calmly Stepped Over Convulsing Teammate In '05
We'll make this one brief, because if it is true, than it is stale by about six years—but we do jump at any opportunity to point out instances in which Nick Saban might have behaved like a dick, and this anecdote certainly qualifies....

Silver Medal Winning Paralympic Cyclist May Compete In Actual Olympics
You may ask: "How's that even possible?" She is no longer paralyzed anymore—that's how! "How's that even possible?" I have no idea. The whole thing sounds pretty crazy to me, but the Dutch cyclist was apparently un-paralyzed after getting into an accident while training for the London 2012 Paralymp...

There's More Action In 3:53 Of Tuscaloosa Tailgate Brawling Than In The Alabama/LSU Game It Preceded
A little late to the game with this week's Fights and/or Boobs inbrawlment, but hell, Alabama/LSU was the Game of the Century, and it's worth taking our collective minds off Jerry Sandusky for a spell, right?...

LSU-Alabama: A Story Told By Faces
Sure, there wasn't much scoring happening on the field. But that doesn't mean CBS's cameras didn't capture a goldmine of reactions to last night's game events. So here's a chronological (roughly) box score of LSU 9, Alabama 6 as told by the fans, coaches, and players themselves. ...

LSU-Alabama Was The Worst Game Ever

Moments Later, Nick Saban Turned Green And Tore A Referee's Torso In Half
In what is turning out to be the most boring Biggest Game Evar, Alabama is tied 3-3 with LSU at the half in a game filled with hard hits and big mistakes—including three missed Crimson Tide field goals. That's not what has Nick Saban enraged (blame a missed penalty call for that) but you can see hi...

LSU Tramples Own Mascot Before Taking On Alabama
Pssst. Mike the Tiger. Look out! Poor Mike the Tiger, not that mascots are particularly deserving of respect—especially when the same school has a live, actual tiger for which you're just an avatar— but that's a rough start for somebody heading into the BIGGEST GAME EVAR....

Patriotic GameDay Protesters Unfurl FIRE CRAIG JAMES Banner
Math scholars will debate for centuries whether it is possible Craig James > Tebow....

The Beard Is Too Mighty For Facemasks
That's San Francisco Giants closer and Taco Bell spokespimp Brian Wilson in full LSU regalia as College GameDay's guest game-picker this morning. Lee Corso got into the beard act as well. It goes without saying his appearance in such costuming did not go over well with the crowd outside Bryant-Denny...

Biggest Game Ever
Tim is collecting the best moments of Every Synthetic Puffer's Nightmare's coverage of the lead up to The Big Game and screen capping them all for you. Come, inside and check them out. No, no. Thank you....

Les Miles Hates The Easter Bunny
Not only that, but Bear Bryant's sporting an LSU Alumni sticker (h/t to ParadigmShift35 for it)....

Trent Richardson Is Every Synthetic Puffer's Nightmare
Signs that attempt to make phrases from ESPN are rarely clever (even when they're awesome) but this one, yet another reminder that LSU enjoys smoking fake weed, breaches the threshold....

Like Many Things In Alabama, Tide Fans Get "X > Tebow" Meme Backward
We've been monitoring Occupy Tebow all week, but the basic and most important element is that the statement features "Greater Than." Leave it up to Bama fans get it wrong....

Matt Barnes And I Would Like To Clarify That Neither Of Us Are Dating Eva Longoria
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: we would like to categorically deny these pernicious, unfounded rumors....
