Jerry Sandusky's Lawyer Says Sandusky Was Too Busy Being A Swell Guy To Molest Any Children
You know that plan Lawyerin' Joe Amendola had to get Jerry Sandusky a new trial by declaring himself incompetent? Yeah, that can wait. For now, on the eve of Sandusky's sentencing hearing, Lawyerin Joe's sticking to the script that Sandusky is innocent, and that there's just no way Sandusky could ha...
Maryland State Troopers Asked The Yankees For Autographs During The Game
Camden Yards beefed up security for the Orioles' return to the playoffs, as is customary. In Baltimore's case, they've retained the services of Maryland State Police, who line the field, sit in the dugouts, that sort of thing. But two troopers, stationed in the Yankees' dugout, make the rookie mista...

Bengals Cheerleader Pleads Guilty To Sexing Up High School Student, Leaves Courthouse With Him
Sarah Jones has had a busy couple of years. In 2010, the former Ben-Gal (ugh) attempted to sue TheDirty.com for claiming she was riddled with STDs from sleeping with Cincinnati players. That was good! (Although her lawyer mistakenly sued the wrong company, so she was unable to collect.) In December ...
Here's The Wizznutzz Turning John Hollinger Into A Zagat's Of Existential Basketball Despair
Last week, ESPN's John Hollinger broke down the strengths and weaknesses of the Washington Wizards roster (Insider). Fans could find some bright spots if they looked: John Wall has "blinding open-court speed"; Nene is a "strong, quick big man who can run floor." But Wizards fans know better than to...
Like Everyone Else, DeAngelo Williams Doesn't Care About Your Fantasy Team
Panthers running back DeAngelo Williams had a disappointing game on Sunday, carrying the ball six times for six yards and fumbling once. Overall, it has not been a good season for Williams (Week 1 line: six rushes for a loss of one yard and one catch for five yards), and it didn't make him feel bet...
Tiger Woods Apologized For Singlehandedly Losing The Ryder Cup
Despite the hyperbolic headline, Woods has come in for surprisingly little heat after a Ryder Cup the U.S. lost by one point, in which he went 0-3-1. Maybe it's because the outcome was decided before Tiger stepped up to the 18th tee on Sunday, maybe it's because there's plenty of blame to go around,...
An English Rugby Player Literally Played One Of His Balls Off
Paul Wood told the BBC Radio Manchester that "it really sounds worse than it is," so I suppose we'll just have to take his word for it. But ... ouch: Wood ruptured one of his testicles during a match Saturday and had to have it removed afterward. Yeah....
That Sure Looks Like A Pair Of Vicious Hickeys On Rob Gronkowski's Neck
The Patriots tight end didn't have the best game yesterday, reeling in just four catches for 35 yards. But the picture above suggests that Gronk had himself a time earlier in the weekend....
ESPN Goes With A "KKK-Rod" Headline, Quickly Changes It After Common Sense Intervenes
Last night, Wallace Matthews of ESPN needed a headline for the note about Alex Rodriguez striking out three times in his Rapid Response blog. What to go with? Something silly like "A-Whiff"? Maybe even something plainly informative like "A-Rod's bad start"?...
Division III Football Game Provides Reminder Not To Storm The Field Until The Game Is Actually Over
Division III played host to one of the craziest football game endings in recent history Saturday. Concordia College (Moorhead) led Bethel University 14-7 and forced a Bethel fumble on what should have been the last play of the game; Concordia players rushed onto the field in celebration, but the p...
The Air-Humping Chicago Bears Assistant Coach Is Really Gross [UPDATE: The Air-Humper Has Been Identified]
Gross. That is really gross, dude. You're way too old to be doing stuff like this. I'm sure the "Hey loogit me y'all, I'm humpin' air. Hee haw!" routine used to be really funny back in your college days, but you're a grown-up now; a grown-up who should know that air-humping—especially while using ...
Did TBS Crap Out On You During The Playoffs? Blame The Sun.
Ah, the sun. Giver of life. Grower of crops. Sworn enemy of the MLB Playoffs on TBS. For Cardinals fans watching their team begin a championship defense, and for Nationals fans watching their first playoff game ever, yesterday's broadcast was a frustrating one. On multiple occasions, TBS's feed froz...

The Jets Are In Line For An Attendance Debacle Tonight
It's been reported that as of Friday, the Jets had 12,000 tickets remaining unsold for tonight's game against the Texans. It's understandable. MetLife Stadium is a remarkably joyless place to watch your team lose 59-6. But there have been no whispers of a blackout, so we can assume Woody Johnson has...
Last Night's Massive Sounders-Timbers Match Featured A Tifo Worthy Of The Occasion
Seattle dispatched rivals Portland 3-0 before a crowd of 66,452 at CenturyLink Field last night, retaining the Cascadia Cup in the Emerald City for at least a few more weeks and leading coach Sigi Schmid to respond, "This is what heaven must be like."...
Cris Collinsworth Knows More About What's Going On With The San Diego Chargers Than Norv Turner
Cris Collinsworth predicted exactly how this game would end after noticing Jared Gaither lumbering before the final play, noting "Gaither looks lame, he's gonna have to get some help here or Wilson's gonna get a sack to end this game." And wouldn't you know it, Martez Wilson easily got to Rivers ...
Minnesota Vikings Beat Writer Wanted Mike Munchak To Sound The Rusty Trombone
Matt Hasselbeck had kind of a rough day against the Vikings and probably deserved to get yanked, but I think we can all agree that Vikings beat writer Tom Pelissero was probably referring to the "sad trombone" or maybe the old vaudeville gimmick of pulling a guy off the stage with a cane when he sen...
