Hmm, Hard To Believe This Kid Turned Out To Be A Twit
Like many of you I suspect, I got my first look at Andrew Giuliani during his dad's mayoral inauguration speech in 1994. As my grandfather always said, "You get the kids you deserve." (Abe Vigoda there in the background in photo No. 2 does not look amused). You probably know by now that Andrew is su...
Looking for Why Gators Are Dominant? It Starts In Erin Andrews' Bed
Because, you see, the team is successful because Erin has realized that if she strips the bed of all pillows and comforters then good things happen. And occasionally, for superstitious reasons, she has the other girls over for sex-toy slumber parties and they exchange lingerie tips and...this is to...
Sox Look to Spank Yanks, Salvage Series
If the Yankees are going to complete the Fenway sweep of the Red Sox they'll need a solid outing from Sir Sidney Alton Ponson. Ponson's career has been marked by wild inconsistency, but he's been oddly dependable on the mound this season. Jon Lester will take the ball for the Sox and Manny will be r...
The Brewers Pull Even With The Cubs
Ryan Braun did most of the heavy lifting, but once again it was Bill Hall providing the winning hit. Hall's RBI single in the eight inning put the Brewers out in front of the Astros who ultimately fell 6-4. Eric Gagne picked up the win in relief before Salomon Torres closed the door in the ninth fo...
Giuliani's Mom Questions Coach's Judgment
Apparently once you decide to procreate with Rudy Giuliani you become some sort of arbiter of quality judgment. The New York Daily News is reporting that the Giuliani camp will use a 2004 picture from a Golf Digest photo shoot from Duke's O.D. Vincent's days at UCLA to display the coach's history p...
Whoever Wins, They'll Still Love Each Other
The Yankees and Red Sox are ready to go in Fenway and Joe Buck's pants are tightening in anticipation. New York is rolling through July, having won seven straight after last night's series opening win. Andy Petitte and Tim Wakefield will be on the mound and Manny Ramirez is back in Boston's lineup ...
Joba Rules Fenway
The Yankees came into Boston on a six-game winning streak and in the end Mariano Rivera kept it alive. Joba Chamberlain dominated the Red Sox lineup for seven shutout innings, striking out nine while allowing just three hits. Kyle Farnsworth did his best to fuck things up in the eighth when he gave...
Matt Leinart: Lookin' Sharp As Usual
This photo appears to be a leftover from The Dirty.com's Matt Leinart off-season portfolio from a few months ago. Here we find Matt and his black life jacket posse looking super tough and composed right before the Jagerbombs kick in. Hopefully those two young ladies didn't have to get choked by Matt...
Introducing Deadspin Nation's Oleo Hero Of The Week
In some countries, ridiculous and unseemly behavior is punishable by deportation, imprisonment or even death. But in Deadspin Nation, one is simply singled out for ridicule ... then deported, imprisoned or killed. And since this is a democracy, our citizens get to choose. Each Friday, "Deadspin Nati...
Favre Might Ruin The Rest Of His Legacy As A New York Jet
Surprise. The latest rumor percolating in the the Brett Favre douchepot has the New York Jets front-runners to land the malcontent quarterback's services. According to Chris Mortensen, the Jets have asked for permission to talk to Favre once Favre's reinstatement is complete. The Bucs, the front-run...
Get Your Madonna Face For Sox-Yankees Rivalry
As the Yanks and Sox prepare to do battle for the 8,038th time of the 2008 Major League Baseball season, there's a new wrinkle to the series. Or at the very least a wrinkled vagina. Yep, Madonna masks are coming to Fenway. At least if Red Sox fans get their wish. Apologies for that scary photo. But...
Yankees Will Not Rest Until They Have All Molinas
The Yankees aren't desperate enough to sign Barry Bonds — at least not yet — but they may have their goggles set on cornering the market on Molinas. With the trade deadline looming and missing sluggers Hideki Matsui and Jorge Posada, the Yankees are reportedly interested in acquiring Giants' catcher...

Fred Wilpon Learns From His Mistakes. Kind Of.
Mets owner Fred Wilpon finally realizes that the early morning firing of Willie Randolph could have been handled better. The long-time Mets' executive told SNY that he "screwed up" and, should a situation like that arise again, the next managerial shit-canning will be done before press deadline. ...
Hopefully, There's More Where That Came From
Yes, it's a bit premature to post this picture of last year's champagne-blasting of NBC10 reporter Jade McCarthy getting, hmm, soaked by the joyous 2007 Philles after they stole the NL East, but with last night's 8-6 victory still buzzing in my head it seemed appropriate....
It's Just Melky Being Manny, I Suppose
I'm just glad that George Steinbrenner didn't live to see this. Apparently there's a tradition at Yankee Stadium where a group of fans called the Bleacher Creatures chant out each player's name in the first inning. The player usually acknowledges this; but not during a play. Oh, Melky Cabrera. You c...
The Hopes Of A Frustrated Phillies Nation Are Nestled Under Joe Blanton's Second Chin
In case you need reminding, there's a huge (chuge?) baseball game here in the Northeastern part of the country this evening, as the New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies begin their three-game bloodfeast tonight in Shea for National League East supremacy. The Phillies will roll out newly acquired ...
Erin Andrews Is No Longer Cherished By Some Midwestern Sports Radio Hosts
First it was Jenn Sterger (kind of), now a Cincinnati radio host is unleashing his own Erin Andrews attack, after America's sideline princess apparently snubbed Kentucky-based radio host Alan Cutler for a scheduled interview. Here's the sic-filled report courtesy of 1530 Homer(The Sports Animal!) mi...
Nascar's Tony Stewart Donates 30 Bulletproof Vests to Police Dogs
No longer content to continue reading about brave police dogs who died because they weren't wearing vests, Tony Stewart has come to the rescue. The vests cost $695 each. If you didn't know that police dogs wore bulletproof vests then you roll with Chris Samuels and Clinton Portis and hate animals. S...
Ya' Ever Play A Game Called "Texas Muffin Tumble" Lil' Lady?
Okay, so President G.W. Bush didn't exactly ask that question to softballer Jennie Finch, but the creepy sexual tension between these two just leaps off of this photo, does it not? But Bush wasn't in the White House Rose Garden just to give Finch the ol' shitkicker leer. He was there to formally sen...
