OK. Are you sitting down? We feel like you should be sitting down. It's probably for the best if you're sitting down. Take a deep breath. Have a brandy. You ready? Cool. Here goes....

The Witnesses May Step Down
This picture kind of sums up why the NBA Finals, after the brief hope of LeBron's ascension, has become a must-miss: People flailing around, grabbing each other, and the Spurs efficiently cruising along. Last night was closer, we suppose, but we just can't fire ourselves up that much for an NBA Fina...

Will The Cavs Make This Even Slightly Interesting?
The ratings are down, the excitement level is low, and the day after Game Two, every sports site from ESPN to us was talking more about "The Sopranos" than yet another Spurs dismantling. And you think there were yawns yesterday? If the Spurs win tonight, bringing this to 3-0, people will be leading ...

It's Been One Year Since Big Ben's Curbing
You know, time really flies when you've banged your head against pavement at 50 miles per hour. It's like you can't get perspective on matters, or something. Yes, folks, it has been exactly one year today since Ben Roethlisberger's motorcycle accident. It's a day Steelers fans will always remember,...

Jeff Reed Is The Most Fun Kicker Of All Time

Another Example Of How UFC Has Overtaken Boxing
We can't possibly thank With Leather enough for digging up this clip of UFC star Chuck Liddell — just hours after his title-belt loss to that Rampaging Jackson fellow — enjoying himself considerably. What's not to love about Chuck Liddell? Nothin'!...

John Daly's Wife: 'No Stabby My Hubby'
We knew that there had to be more to this story ... come on, it's John Daly. And he didn't let us down. apparently....

Everywhere You Look, There Is Steve Phillips
After watching this Steve Phillips gimmick segment on "Baseball Tonight" last night, we await, with much dread, the attack of the Steve Phillips clone army....

[The Smittblog] • The umpires in baseball might be out of control again. [Out Of Right Field] • Well, somebody's into the MLS, anyway. [Informati...

Your College Hoops Video Game Just Got More Annoying
You might have thought it strange or #### to see J.J. Redick fitted in those motion capture sensors for the NCAA video game last year, but that's nothing compared to the three Florida fellas on the cover of this year's game....

Who's Now, America? WHO'S NOW?
Oh, how to fill those dog days of summer, when the sports marketplace bleeds into a repetitive cycle of baseball highlights and reports from NFL minicamp. (And occasional WNBA scores.) ESPN has come up with a clever way of spicing matters up. And by "clever," we mean, "soul-crushingly lame." And it'...

We Congratulate The Spurs On Their Fourth Title
Well, it's certainly starting to look like we're all witnesses to Tim Duncan methodically steamrolling to his fourth NBA title. (That would tie him with Shaq, by the way.) What was most distressing about the Spurs' 103-92 Game 2 win over the Cavaliers last night was that it was over so early; the ou...

Miami Cops Just Want To Have Fun
Before we get into "The Sopranos" and Tim Duncan and an odd new reality "show" ESPN's starting, we thought we'd bring up this little nugget of potential amusement, from yesterday's Palm Beach Post, via our man Lt. Winslow. It appears that the cops who arrested Tony La Russa back in March were comple...

Thank You, Deadspin, And Goodnight!
The past two days have been so much fun that they've reminded me of nothing if not... groin shots. One long string of groin shots. Now, I know this "too-hot-for-TV" beer ad has made the rounds, but — just like the genre was at the Springfield Film Festival — you simply can't get enough of it. I figu...
