Afternoon Blogdome: Be Thankful This Is Not Your Team
• Whatever keeps my family from talking to each other: They should definitely take the Thanksgiving Day game away from the Lions. Or not. Either way, I'll be drunk on cranberry sauce. [Sports Climax + Examiner] • Not begin in jail helps Is Matt Ryan the MVP? It's kind of sad when "he hasn't knowingl...
Thursday Night Preview: Virginia Tech at Miami
Virginia Tech at Miami (-4)-Tonight Virginia Tech and Miami continue the trail of tears-esque march towards crowning an ACC Champion. Miami has won 4 in a row (3 of them ACC games) and hasn't played since November 1 when they won an overtime game at Virginia. Since that time, as evidenced by the ab...

Ricky Williams Refuses to Hide from The Woman Trapped Inside Him
In the December issue of Playboy magazine, our buddy Pat Jordan penned an enormous profile on the ganja-toking, yoga-loving problem child, as he attempts to rejuvenate his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins. In the piece, we learn about his many quirks, his relationship with the mother of his two ch...
Identity Of Our Bathroom Stall Girl Revealed
Even though the incident in question evidently occurred in 2004, former University of Florida student Leah Logue is just now becoming an intertubes superstar. Here she is, courtesy of Facebook friend and Deadspin reader The Bullsaw. Hard to believe she got plastered and ran headlong into a bathroom ...
Kerry "the Crooning Cannon" Collins Is a Country Music Songwriter
Lost in the bedlam that has overtaken my hometown over the Titans 9-0 start and Kerry Collins becoming an MVP candidate is this fact: Kerry Collins has written a country song. Which is entertaining on several levels, but not nearly as entertaining as the title: "It's Not Hard to Be Happy When I'm L...
Florida State Prepares For Boston College... By Thumping Some Black Frat Boys?
Details are still sketchy at this point, but apparently there was a little brouhaha on the campus of Florida State University yesterday and we don't want to alarm you ... but the football team may have been involved. Campus police say about ten individuals were involved (including at least two women...
Keith Olbermann Loves Our Commenters
So I'm watching Countdown last night and what should appear during the Oddball segment but this, the video we posted yesterday of the girl vs. the bathroom stall. Although the story took the second spot to a woman and her pet slug (you can tell the election is over, can't you?), kudos nonetheless to...
You Got Served
When it comes to high school sports, I'd much rather be on the football field in pads where it's safe, rather than face the sneaky, vicious wrath of the cheerleaders. It happened in Texas (of course), where members of an El Paso high school cheerleading squad baked up a batch of cupcakes for cheerle...
Please Do Not Approach The Tigermobile
This is purported to be the sweet ride of one Willy-Mo, aka William Moore, senior safety for the Missouri Tigers; although judging from the photo below, it may be someone else's. At any rate, I don't know where this was taken, but it doesn't seem like it's a great part of town. In fact, according to...
There's No Recession For Vicious Youth Football Hits
There seems to be an alarming number of youth football players getting flat out owned these days. Or maybe there's just an alarming number of parents who document their child's every move and then upload their humiliation to YouTube. Either way, undersized children are getting absolutely destroyed ...
Afternoon Blogdome: You Make Me Want To Be A Better Mascot
[email protected] is not playing around anymore • Who said it?: "Chief Illiniwek inspired me to be a complete man." This actually explains a lot about a couple of those earlier posts. [Storming The Floor] • That wasn't supposed to happen: Niagara College scored three shorthanded goals on one pen...
This Is Not A Place Either Of Us Want To Be, And For That I Am Sorry
Daulerio asked me to describe my experience at the Rick's Cabaret on Monday night. This is probably the best I can do. Strip clubs are not about decadence, or fantasy, or even commerce. They are, at their core, about interaction. The dance is not delicate, or disguised. This is not a place where som...
When We Were Kings: One Night At Rick's Cabaret
"I don't get the Derek Jeter thing, " one dancer named Julianne says from across a four top table in the dimly lit dining room of Rick's Cabaret. "He's so normal looking." Two other girls, Holly and, oh, I don't know remember what her name was — Bambi, maybe?— agree. "Yes, he's really not that hands...
Let Taxidermy Bring Out The Wildcat In You
Black Friday will be upon us soon and before you know it you will be huddled under blankets outside a Wal-Mart at four in the morning, begging the retailer to give you the honor being kicked in the head for a $10 DVD player. (Excuse me: "home entertainment system.") But why not avoid the muss and fu...
Terrell Owens, Comedian
I did not see last night's "Late Show with David Letterman" (so late!) so I missed this appearance by everyone's favorite vaudeville joke-maker and occasional wide receiver Terrell Owens. We also lost our copy of "Little T Learns To Share," but we think this Top Ten list sends pretty much the same m...
Understanding The NFL Fine System (Hint: You Can't)
Last week, New York Giants defensive end Justin Tuck was fined $7,500 for a hit that pretty much everyone on the planet—except for the referee who a threw a flag at him—agreed was a textbook tackle. The commissioner's office felt this was a perfectly reasonable response as part of its effort to prot...
University Of Georgia Girl Vs. Bathroom Stall ... The Final Conflict
Of all the titanic college football matchups — like Ohio State vs. Michigan, Miami vs. Florida State, Texas vs. Oklahoma — there is one that is often overlooked. It's University of Georgia chick vs. bathroom stall. Come with us now into the women's restroom at Sanford Stadium, where the age-old conf...
Carmelo Anthony Might Be Losing More Than Just Allen Iverson
Other than the fact that he's famous, fabulously wealthy, and can dunk on Jerome Williams, Carmelo Anthony has a lot in common with people like you and me. We all love soup, the outdoors, talking and not talking. I mean, we could not talk or talk forever and still find things to not talk about. You ...
Afternoon Blogdome: Gina Carano Likes The Ladies (When She's Not Beating Them Up)
[email protected] would never hurt you, baby. You know that! • Hey bud, let's party: Look, we're not saying that Gina Carano is into women. We're just saying that she smacks them around for a living and then when she's done with that, maybe goes back to the hotel for some wine and a roll on the...
