Signs, Signs, Everywhere Signs
It does seem like this has been happening a lot of late: The Buffalo Bills a couple of weeks ago didn't allow several fans to bring their anti-management signs into Ralph Wilson Stadium, threatening them with ejection if they didn't throw the sign away.

Lions Fans Turning To Prostitution
We'll be honest: We've considering doing this. An enterprising Lions fan, fed up with the historic run of bad football team has put up over the Matt Millen era, is putting \his fandom up for auction on eBay.

Paying Tribute To Dear Old Ma
At last, a fan running on the field story everyone can get behind. During the Eagles game yesterday, an unidentified fan sprinted onto Lincoln Financial Field to spread the ashes of his dead mother onto the grass. Apparently, this is because he liked his mother, rather than vice versa....
Greg Gall Free To Stumble Down Street
Fans of America, you can now breathe easier: You can still get shit-faced, run onto the field and slap Carson Palmer on the ass, and you won't have to worry about much time in the clink. A day after a zealous prosecutor threatened to put crazed Bengals "fan" Greg Gall away for 30 days for becomin...
Throwing The Book At Greg Gall
Some more news from our old friend Greg Gall, the guy who has spent an inordinate amount of time drinking with Deadspin readers. (By the way, we will be in Cincinnati for Thanksgiving week, so Greg, hey, drop us a line, we'll chat.) Ordinarily, when American Heroes like Gall bolt onto the field, t...
"They Just Need To Give 'Em All BATS!"
We found this photo of "The Sopranos"' Vito Spatafore and video game shill Lawrence Taylor, and even though it has nothing to do with the rest of this post, it made us laugh, particularly considering Vito's quiet preferences on the show....

Confirming Once Again: Penises Are Funny
From the front page of Friday's Purdue Exponent, this photo shows Purdue fans getting "rowdy" as they bat around a huge inflatable penis during their loss to Notre Dame a week and a half ago. Or, as the caption to the paper's photo puts it, an "oversized phallic object."...
Michigan Courts Make Society Safe Again
We know it's amazing that sports have been able to continue in the 10 months since the Pistons-Pacers brawl at The Palace in Detroit, but somehow, someway, athletic endeavors have been able to stagger on. In another example of the brutal ramifications of the actions of everyone involved, the three...
Giants Fans Remain Most Erudite In Sport
We once went to a St. Louis Cardinals-New York Yankees game at Yankee Stadium with a smattering of fellow Cardinals fans. There was a rain delay, and our group — all dressed in loud red, of course — watched the Bleacher Creatures amuse themselves, treating the benches like Slip-n-Slide's and parti...
"Ditka 84, Bengals Negative-7"

Bears fans might not be the most spirited fans in all of th...
Another Reason To Hate Teenagers
We've been watching video of that dumbass teenager who jumped onto the screen behind home plate at Yankee Stadium last night.

The Lady Fans Congregate
Since the NFL shut down the infamous "NFL4Her" portion of its Web site, it has been difficult to find a place where women sports fans can congregate. Fortunate, the fine folks at FemmeFan have alerted us to their presence. Like many gay/women sports fan sites, it's pretty much a straightforward sp...
