Beer That Makes You SKINNY!

If Only Landon Donovan Had Received This Tough Love
Listen Tiffany, we're sick and tired of coddling your ass. You always recover centrally. And we've told you a million times, dribble toward the defender until he leaves his mark, then pass him! Repeat that, Tiffany! You dribble where? Toward the defender! Don't make us stop the car again....

Begin Preparing For The Vince Young Injury
ESPN Video Games had him at 12-1 odds, but Nashville City Paper is reporting that Vince Young will be on the cover of Madden 2008.

A Brief History Of Sportswriter Gambling
The ombudsman over at The Washington Post is appalled to learn that Post writers have been gambling on The Masters, saying, "maybe the Masters bets next year should be in Oreos, not cash," which, if you've looked at the people covering The Masters lately, is probably what they're spending their mone...
Buy Bill Cowher's Junk!
One of the many reasons it's good to be a famous sports figure: When you want to clear out your house of a bunch of useless, outdated junk, you can slap a "As Owned By ..." sticker on it, say it's for charity and look like a great guy, rather than just tossing everything out to the street corner and...
Save LT Before It's Too Late
It won't be long now until they announce who will grace the cover of Madden 2008 — ESPN's quixotic video games section handicaps the contenders here — and as everybody knows, it has pretty much meant doom for whomever is graced with the honor. Marshall Faulk, Daunte Culpepper, Eddie George, Ron Mexi...

Yep: It's a slasher movie about golf. It also has a decidedly inferior tagline: "It's a game you'll play for the rest of y...
Apparently, The Weather Was Warm In LA This Weekend
