Big Dope Loses All His Cowboys Stuff. Poor, Dumb Sap
You hate to see anyone become the victim of a burglary, but at the same time it's hard to feel any sympathy for Bruce Marziani. Bruce was born and raised in Philadelphia, but is a Dallas Cowboys fan, as you can see. And when he traveled to Irving for the big Monday Night showdown with the Eagles, he...
Sock it To Me, Sir Alex
Michael Bertin writes regularly about soccer for Deadspin Sir Alex Ferguson can go fuck himself. Okay, literally, that might be a bit of a tall order, but he does have a saggy set of B-cups so he could at least give himself a good feeling up. I mean this with the utmost respect, of course—the guy h...
In Which We Ask The Musical Question, What The Hell Was That?
Kat DeLuna was called a "pop sensation" by the Texas Stadium announcer as she prepared to sing the National Anthem at what I'm assuming was the Monday Night game against the Eagles. She caused a sensation, all right. It's the first time I've heard an anthem singer booed who didn't unintentionally b...
Lane Kiffin Approaching Final Hours Of Employment Under Snarling Corpse
After week-long speculation about the fate of the Oakland Raiders beleaguered head coach Lane Kiffin, it appears scary-old-tree-looking owner Al Davis has informed young Kiffin via his silver and black henchmen that he's about to (officially) get canned. Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported last night th...
Can't Wait To Hear What Greeny Says About This
I think it would be a really compelling episode of Mike & Mike in the Morning if Golic, followed by a handheld camera, were to go down to the South Bend police station to bail out his son, Mike Jr. The lad was arrested for drinking at a party, along with other members of the Notre Dame football team...
The U.S. Steals The Ryder Cup, Week Three In The NFL And Goodbye To Yankee Stadium
Each weekday morning Awful Announcing, video slash and grab extraordinaire of the sports blogosphere, gives us a visual rundown of everything you missed from the night before. If there's something sports-related you'd like to see with your coffee, shoot him an e-mail and let him know....
In Gus We Trust
Gus Frerotte, the journeyman QB, may have saved the Vikings' season this afternoon. Behind Frerotte's 37-year old arm, and a relentless defense, the Vikes extinguished Carolina 20-10 and notched their first victory of this young NFL year. Purple Jesus wasn't very god-like, as the injured back carrie...
Americans Take Back the Cup, Do the Bull Dance, Feel the Flow
Hunter Mahan and the underdog American Ryder Cup team have brought the prize back to the States where it belongs, for at least the next two years. As expected, the European media is taking things well. By that I of course mean that they are wasting no time in bashing the crap out of beleaguered cap...
Miami Arena goes Ka-Boom
Earlier today, the old home to both the Miami Heat and Florida Panthers got demolished, and we've got video of the implosion following the jump: ...
Late Afternoon NFL Snack
• Steelers at Eagles: A.J. Daulerio kindly requested that I attach the photo you see above to this post, which should tell you everything you need to know about the emotional state Eagles fans are in this afternoon. The Steelers jumped out to a 3-0 lead late in the opening quarter, via a 37-yard fi...
Manning and Griese Lock Up Overtime Wins
You could have guessed that the Buccaneers and Bears would play a close game in Chicago, but I'm pretty sure that only the most diehard of Bengal fans could have pictured Cincinnati pushing the Giants to overtime in New York. In the end only the Bucs and Giants will go home with a victory, each on ...
You Should Let Joey Porter Pick Your Lottery Numbers
• Miami at New England: Last week, Joey Porter did Joey Porter things, as he completely emasculated Pats QB Matt Cassell in front of the media. Joey must have said his prayers, because God did not smite him by having Cassell put up a monster day. Quite the opposite, actually. Tom Brady's replacemen...
Afternoon Blogdome: A Look At Ocho Cinco's Entirely Fictional Gmail Account
• The "hacking" of Chad Ocho Cinco's Gmail account reveals what we always suspected, Chris Henry has a dead hooker in his closet. [Sportaphile] • I love it when Floyd Mayweather Sr. talks. “What can you learn from hitting a pillow? That is what you punch when you’re in a bad mood, not what you hit t...
Chad Pennington Is Playing Well; Yes, You Read That Correctly
• Miami at New England: Prior to the game, Dolphins Tony Sparano coach hinted that his defenders would look to get physical with Randy Moss today, and judging from his play so far (3 catches for 18 yards in the first half), I'd say that plan is working to perfection. Miami led 21-6 at the half. (Oh...
The Ronnie Brown Show
• Panthers at Vikings: Despite having the services of one Adrian Peterson, the Vikes trail Carolina 10-0 thanks to a 43-yard boot from John Kasay plus a rushing TD from Jonathan Stewart. • Cardinals at Redskins: Clinton Portis has rushed for a touchdown, leading me to wonder how Brian Mitchell feel...
The Calm Before the Storm
Ah, sweet, glorious NFL Sunday is here at long last. And you can take a look at which men and women will bring you today's slate of 15 games. • Joey "piano man” Harrington is taking his musical talents to New Orleans, where he'll play backup to Drew Brees's backup. My, how the not-so-mighty have fa...
The Final Bid to Reclaim the Cup
The American Ryder Cup side maintained their two point lead over the Europeans through yesterday's afternoon session, and now only today's twelve singles matches remain. Because they currently hold the cup, the Euros will need to win seven of this afternoon's matches outright to tie the US and retai...
LSU Finds Its New (Unlikely) Hero at QB, Downs Auburn
The annual Auburn-LSU showdown lived up to the hype last night, as redshirt freshman QB Jarrett Lee found Brandon LaFell with an 18-yard touchdown pass with just over a minute remaining. That strike proved to be the difference, as the sixth ranked Tigers pulled out a tough road win, and now have dr...
Terrelle Pryor Does Not Suck
Just because their season came to a crashing halt last weekend it doesn't mean it's too early to start setting things up for next year. After three games, including one crushing loss at USC, Jim Tressel has "finally" handed things over to Terrelle Pryor, the superhuman frosh who gives Ohioans yet an...
It's Been a Swell Week for Racism in Sports
Unless you were away from civilization for the past few days, you're probably up to speed on the Josh Howard National Anthem fiasco. Mark Cuban took down the infamous post featuring crazy emails from crazy racists, but blatant racism reared its ugly head yet again this weekend in the world of sport...
