Is Monkey In The Middle The Meanest Childhood Game?
I spent spring break at my sister's house last week and one night when I was there I was on the couch, watching the tourney and picking at my feet. I tore off this flap of skin that had really bugged me all day, and when I tore it off, BLOOD EVERYWHERE. My big toe was hemorrhaging plasma. I ran on m...
Making Your Own Ketchup Is Idiotic
Before we hit the Funbag, one quick programming note: there won't be a Live Funbag on Thursday. Having children on Spring Break means being around your children for 150 consecutive hours, and it's unlikely that I will be of sound mind by the time Thursday rolls around. You'll understand one day....

What Event Would Reset The World Calendar?
When looking through history, we measure years with B.C. and A.D. but you have to imagine that in some time in the future we'll have a new abbreviation, right?

Should The NFL Draft Become An Auction Draft?
Before we get to the Funbag, one thing: my new book, Someone Could Get Hurt, is due out May 16. You can find links to pre-order it through my shitass homepage. It's all new Dadspin material.

West Virginia's not known for its excelsior journalism, but Charleston/Huntington NBC affiliate WSAZ has long been the flagship for getting it right in the Mountain State and is, seriously, a fantastic news operation. Alas, the auto-correct bug can bite even the most seasoned TV vets, as we assume...
The Best (Or Maybe Worst) NBA Rule-Change Idea You'll Ever Hear
I was in New York on business last week (as much as what I do can be called "business" with a straight face) and I was working out of this office building downtown one morning when I had to go take a shit. So I grabbed my guest pass, beeped my way through a set of hallway doors (I always pretend I'm...

Check Out These Rad Pictures Of An Exploding Funny Car [UPDATE: Now With A GIF]
Tony Pedregon, NHRA Funny Car champion in 2007, ran into some slight difficulty in his race against Todd Lesenko on Friday in Pomona when his car blew up. (Lesenko knows how it is.) Funny cars are sort of designed to explode without incident—it's not hard to find stories about engines going up in fl...
